Is the Samsung Galaxy Tab A11+ worth it?

Yes on offer, for streaming and browsing on a budget.

It handles streaming, browsing, video calls and light games, has four speakers, a headphone jack and a microSD slot, and gets seven years of updates. The 90Hz LCD screen looks washed out from an angle, 6GB of memory struggles with heavy multitasking, and there's no fingerprint reader or pen support. At full price it's poor value; it's often much cheaper.

How we reached this verdict

Android Authority (80%) calls it the best budget Android tablet by default. Tech Advisor (3.5/5) likes its seven years of updates, clean design and quad speakers, but finds the screen poor off-angle and the price high. Pocket-lint says it handles everyday tasks well but has an average screen and no S Pen.

We compared independent expert reviews with the manufacturer's specifications, then checked it's sold at a major retailer where you live. We don't test products ourselves.
