5. Microsoft Surface Pro 4

Buy the Microsoft Surface Pro 4 on Amazon

Microsoft describes the Surface Pro 4 as the tablet that can replace your laptop – and this is not wrong. Saying that the Surface Pro 4 refines every aspect of its predecessor probably minimizes the importance of the jump it's made; it represents another safe step towards the best hybrid device possible. And from a company that, until it was not so long ago, did not manufacture any material.

Do not get me wrong, it's still not brilliant in all scenarios, but it feels considerably less compromised than previous generations. The kickstand on the back is now fully adjustable, which helps ensure that the screen is at a comfortable angle and makes it a little more stable on a ride. And while the type coverage initially has a disconcerting amount of bounce and flex, at least compared to a standard laptop, you soon forget about it once you start typing.

Like a tablet, the Surface Pro 4 is a delight. The 12.3-inch PixelSense screen is of a striking beauty and color accuracy too, perfect for everything from the focus of photographs to the creation of drawn illustrations. by hand. The surface pen is the killer addition here because it provides a truly compelling pen experience. And Windows 10 is just as clever as ever for handwriting recognition, which certainly helps.

This is not cheap, but even compared to the new pair of Apple iPad Pros, it's one of the only tablets here that can really double as a PC's office. It's beautiful.

7. Samsung Galaxy Tab S3

Price temporarily revised: 599 €

The Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 is the best Android tablet ever made, so why is it in sixth place on our list? A simple reason: the price.

Despite its incredible aspect ratio 4: 3 2.0148 x 1.536 AMOLED screen resolution, its incredibly lightweight chassis and alluring look, charges £ 600 for a single tablet, even one with a S-Pen stylus included in the box, is just crazy.

It makes a little more sense when you consider that Samsung sees the S3 tab mainly as an iPad Pro 9.7 rival, and when you add the cost of the keyboard, pen and tablet together, the S3 tab fate £ 80 cheaper

But still, it's a lot to spend on any tablet, even one as brilliant as this one.

Samsung took its rather beautiful Galaxy Tab S 8.4 and gave it a powerful unique impression. The size of the screen has been reduced to 8 inches, but the larger 4: 3 format makes a positive difference and the quality of the image remains the best. Despite a slim body of 5.6mm, the performance and battery life have also taken a positive turn. The only chicane? Price

Screen	Camera	Processor	Storage	Battery Life
8in 1 536 x 2048	2.1MP 8MP	Octa-core Exynos 5433 3GB RAM	32 / 64GB + microSD	14h 07m video playback

"There is really no reason not to choose the Samsung Galaxy Tab S 8.4. "

on Apple's iOS, there's really no reason not to choose Samsung's Galaxy Tab S 8.4 instead. It is, in short, absolutely charming. It is light and painfully thin, but the first thing that will strike most people will be the sheer quality of the 8-inch screen.

By default, the Super AMOLED screen serves colors that are much richer and vivid than most of its rivals, but if you want a more moderate range or intense oversaturation, you can choose between sRGB modes and Adobe RGB in the settings. And whatever choice you make, the color accuracy is better than virtually any tablet.

The deciding factor here, however, is that screen design and quality are married with superb performance and a competitive life. Factor in the ability to expand Samsung's storage quickly and easily via a microSD card, and this tablet is the reason why many people should consider buying an Android tablet rather than go with Apple.

This is a tablet of 7 inches. It costs £ 50. For many people, this will be all they need to know. Sold

Still here? D & # 39; agreement. Let us explain why you should buy one.

Of course, you can not expect a cutting-edge design – the fire exceeds 1 cm in thickness – or at the high-end specifications, but it's a very handy tablet. The display is large and pixilated compared to the phone you have in your pocket, and Amazon's Fire operating system brings its own limits to the table, but if you already have a premium subscription you probably will not care. The new Fire 7 tablet 2017 also comes with Alexa integrated, making it the cheapest device with a screen for the voice assistant of Amazon. That makes the fire 7 is a half-decent tablet for £ 50. If you want a tablet for kids, or another one that does not mind you going on a camping holiday, it's a very good bet.
