Samsung tablet cut to £189 – but Amazon is selling a cheap alternative for £70

Must read

I’VE just come across two fantastic deals on Android tablets that Amazon is offering right now.

One will land you an 11-inch Samsung tablet for less than £190, but the other gets you a cheaper 10-inch alternative for under £70, and customers are raving about its performance.

Samsung Galaxy Tab A9+, £189 (was £239)

First, I stumbled upon a fantastic offer on Amazon for the Samsung Galaxy Tab A9+.

Originally priced at a steep £239, it’s now reduced to £189. Which is a great deal, no matter how you slice it.

As you’d expect from a Samsung gadget, the Galaxy Tab A9+ boasts some top-end tech

One standout feature is its impressive 11-inch TFT fluid motion display, delivering immersive entertainment complemented by 3D sound: which will keep your video calls clear and sharp too.

It also comes with speedy 5G connectivity, ensuring you experience seamless streaming and quick download times.

It also has some pretty nifty multitasking prowess, letting you split the screen into three sections to sketch, view visuals, and video chat without closing any apps.

Among the more than 500 ratings, 366 users awarded the Galaxy Tab A9+ a 5-star rating, with an additional 87 giving it 4 stars.

XCX 10 Inch Tablet, £69.99 (was £109.99)
(with £20 voucher)

I then stumbled upon an incredible find on a lesser-known Android tablet.

The XCX 10-inch Tablet, originally priced at £109.99, is now available for just £89.99.

Better still, applying the voucher located below the listed price slashes an additional £20, bringing the total to only £69.99.

I haven’t come across a better deal on a tablet all year.

While it’s not a household name (it’s also a discovery for me), checking out its spec sheet reveals a compelling alternative compared to more expensive brands such as Samsung.

This model features a slightly smaller 10-inch IPS HD display but operates on the latest Android 13 OS, just like the Galaxy Tab A9+.

Granted, these are not like for like, the Galaxy Tab A9+ features a stylish, premium design, a high-refresh-rate display, and immersive 3D sound, making it perfect for entertainment.

Whereas, the XCX 10-inch Android Tablet ups the ante with 8GB of RAM: double that of the Galaxy’s 4GB, delivering twice the speed at a fraction of the cost.

Opting for this budget-friendly option means joining a satisfied crowd, with shoppers lauding the XCX and awarding it an impressive 4.6 out of 5 stars in their reviews.

One shopper praised it as “powerful and versatile,” highlighting: “It’s easy to use, offers great value for money, and has features catering to a wide range of needs.”

Another customer shared: “So far it’s taken everything I’ve thrown at it with ease, all the streaming apps that I use (Netflix, Amazon video, Disney, Sky Go etc) as well as music streaming apps.”

Continuing, they noted: “Battery life is exceptional and using USB-C to charge is up there in line with more expensive tablets. All in all a fantastic buy and I’m impressed.”
