Amazon Deal Knocks Samsung’s Affordable A8 Tablet Back Down to All-Time Low – CNET [CNET]

You can get your hands on this budget-friendly Samsung tablet for as little as $140 right now.

Tablets are a super portable and convenient way to browse the web and watch your shows. And with so many models now available, you can get your hands on a solid model without paying an arm and a leg if you hold out for deals. If you’re in the market for a basic tablet that can stream your favorite media, play games and more, check out the Samsung Galaxy Tab A8. Right now at Amazon, you can pick up the 32GB model for as little as $140 — which is $90 off and matches the all-time lowest price we’ve seen — with larger-capacity models also on sale for as much as $100 off. There’s no set expiration for this deal, so you may want to get your order in sooner rather than later if you don’t want to miss out on these savings. 

If you need to stay productive even from the comfort of your bed or couch, but don’t want to deal with the bulk of a laptop, the Galaxy Tab A8 is a decent option. This Wi-Fi-only tablet sports a 10.5-inch LCD display with 1,920×1,200-pixel resolution, along with 3GB of RAM for the 32GB model, or 4GB for the 64 and 128GB models. And if you don’t feel like springing for the 128GB model or need even more storage, you can expand the storage up to 1TB with a microSD card. It also gets up to 13 hours of battery life per charge (depending on usage factors) and with a fast-charging USB-C port, you can always get a boost when you need it. 

If you already use other Galaxy products, getting a Galaxy tablet might be a good idea, because your devices can seamlessly communicate with each other. Your notes, like your to-do lists, automatically sync on your tablet, phone or watch whenever you make changes. Plus, if you ever change up your operating system, Smart Switch can make moving your favorite files a piece of cake. The tablet also comes with Samsung Kids, which is a library of safe and fun games, books and videos that parents can trust to be kid-friendly.
