The best tablets for 2023

<p>Following the release of the 2022 Apple iPad Air and Samsung’s Galaxy Tab S8 line last year, there hasn’t been a ton of movement in the tablet world. At IFA, Lenovo announced refreshed versions of the Tab P11 and P11 Pro featuring updated internals and even an 11.2-inch OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate on the Pro. Apple's latest tablet is the revamped 10.9-inch iPad, but at $449, it's a more of an upgrade from, rather than alternative for, the less expensive 10.2-inch iPad. More recently, Amazon launched revamped versions of its Fire HD 8 tablets featuring new “Tap to Alexa” functionality. And while Amazon’s e-readers aren’t typically thought of as tablets, the new Kindle Scribe deserves some consideration thanks to the addition of an included pen and support for handwritten notes. While there haven't been a ton of groundbreaking releases as of late, you still have a bunch of solid tablets to choose from if you're in the market for a new one. Let's break down what you should consider before deciding on a new device, and our current favorites.&nbsp;</p><h2>Which OS is right for me?</h2><p>Before you even start looking at specific devices, consider how your new tablet will fit in with the gadgets you already own, and how you plan to use it. For example, if everyone in your house uses Macs and iPhones, it probably doesn’t make a lot of sense to buy an Android tablet, even if you’ve been tempted by the massive 14.6-inch screen on the new Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra. This goes double for anyone with an extensive library of purchased videos and music that might be harder to access after switching platforms.</p><span id="end-legacy-contents"></span><p>Another consideration is the kind of work you’ll be doing. That’s because while all modern tablets are adept at browsing websites or playing games, some operating systems like iPadOS and Windows 11 are better designed to support multitasking and productivity than Android or even Chrome OS. It’s a similar situation for software, because while most popular apps and games are available on both Apple’s App Store and Google’s Play Store, more specialized enterprise software may only have proper support on desktop platforms like Windows or macOS.</p><h2>What size screen should I get?</h2><p>Trying to decide the size of your tablet is also related to the kind of work (or play) you intend to do. Larger displays make it much easier to view two apps side by side, with big screens also delivering a more immersive movie viewing experience. But at the same time, the larger the tablet, the less likely you’re going to want to move it around. That means you’re not only going to want to take stock of your workspace (i.e., if you have a desk or instead plan to work from a couch or even your bed), you’re also going to want to think about how the device will fit into your everyday routine or commute (if you have one).</p><h2>Potential accessories</h2><p>Finally, you’ll want to consider any add-ons or accessories you’re planning to use, which can range from detachable keyboards to things like external mics or a stylus. The good news is that many of the best tablets nowadays offer some kind of keyboard accessory, which allows the device to function more like a 2-in-1 instead of simply being a content consumption device. Some tablets also feature things like microSD card slots that support expandable storage, or optional 4G or 5G connectivity, which can be a real boon to frequent travelers. And if you’re planning to use the tablet mainly for work, you might want to grab a USB hub for connecting all your favorite peripherals.</p><h2>Best overall: Apple iPad Pro</h2><p><core-commerce id="ee244226ac8f41a6a6963b8dee9b2ab6" data-type="product-list"></core-commerce></p><p>Powered by the same Apple M2 chips you get in MacBooks, the <a href="https://shopping.yahoo.com/rdlw?merchantId=66ea567a-c987-4c2e-a2ff-02904efde6ea&amp;siteId=us-engadget&amp;pageId=1p-autolink&amp;featureId=text-link&amp;merchantName=Amazon&amp;custData=eyJzb3VyY2VOYW1lIjoiV2ViLURlc2t0b3AtVmVyaXpvbiIsInN0b3JlSWQiOiI2NmVhNTY3YS1jOTg3LTRjMmUtYTJmZi0wMjkwNGVmZGU2ZWEiLCJsYW5kaW5nVXJsIjoiaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuYW1hem9uLmNvbS9zdG9yZXMvcGFnZS80NUUxNDM0QS1GRDU4LTQwQTctQkMxNC1BNjk4Q0QzNkRGN0M_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&amp;signature=AQAAAZtPDfg5pd1RjnTecI9phynDaRaaLjiKYx-zC0Bi7XBO&amp;gcReferrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2Fstores%2Fpage%2F45E1434A-FD58-40A7-BC14-A698CD36DF7C%3F_encoding%3DUTF8%26store_ref%3DSB_A08778292RIRQ4ZUH855M%26pd_rd_plhdr%3Dt%26aaxitk%3D094f12dbd533746035ea73fa272aab9f%26hsa_cr_id%3D4219929570501%26lp_asins%3DB09323PCV7%2CB09QHXTHYZ%26lp_query%3Dipad%2Bpro%26lp_slot%3Dauto-sparkle-hsa-tetris%26pd_rd_w%3D3YSC5%26pf_rd_p%3D488a18be-6d86-4de0-8607-bd4ea4b560f3%26pd_rd_wg%3DwZIHz%26pf_rd_r%3DJC6ZAVKVCP3XWFPMPVQA%26pd_rd_r%3D831f2cf4-13f7-48da-869d-440099b8f100%26" class="rapid-with-clickid" data-i13n="elm:affiliate_link;sellerN:Amazon;elmt:">iPad Pro[/url] is one of the fastest and most well-built tablets you can buy today.

And with a 10.9-inch screen, it’s basically the same size as the smaller iPad Pro too. The main difference is that the iPad Air’s display isn’t quite as bright and doesn’t support a 120Hz refresh rate. But if you’re ok with that, the fifth-gen iPad Air is essentially an iPad Pro with a less fancy screen that starts at $599 instead of $799.</p><h2>Best Android tablet: Samsung Galaxy Tab S8</h2><p><core-commerce id="dc610303f4f04eaf9c9f165f9f36fd19" data-type="product-list"></core-commerce></p><p>Available in three sizes – an 11-, 12.4- and a huge 14.6-inch model – <a href="https://shopping.yahoo.com/rdlw?merchantId=f85e63cd-e13c-4f9d-991c-9fbaadede3ac&amp;siteId=us-engadget&amp;pageId=1p-autolink&amp;featureId=text-link&amp;merchantName=Samsung+Electronics&amp;custData=eyJzb3VyY2VOYW1lIjoiV2ViLURlc2t0b3AtVmVyaXpvbiIsInN0b3JlSWQiOiJmODVlNjNjZC1lMTNjLTRmOWQtOTkxYy05ZmJhYWRlZGUzYWMiLCJsYW5kaW5nVXJsIjoiaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuc2Ftc3VuZy5jb20vL3VzL3RhYmxldHMvZ2FsYXh5LXRhYi1zOC9idXkvPyIsImNvbnRlbnRVdWlkIjoiMjcxOTRhN2QtODQzNS00ODAyLThlYzAtM2JmZGI3ZDk5Y2JhIn0&amp;signature=AQAAAZCniMx19ogWMeFLnLcE1sY069Ff6Up7nANYmmyR8Yac&amp;gcReferrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.samsung.com%2F%2Fus%2Ftablets%2Fgalaxy-tab-s8%2Fbuy%2F%3F" class="rapid-with-clickid" data-i13n="elm:affiliate_link;sellerN:Samsung Electronics;elmt:">Samsung’s Galaxy Tab S8 line[/url] has the right-sized screen for practically any need.
