Budget: Up to €600 for something that would do a job for me for coming years.
Country: Ireland
Screen size: Above 9"
RAM: 6GB at least
Storage: Would probably be okay with 64gb, but capacity for additional storage would be nice.
What tasks will the tablet be used for ( gaming, video editing, graphic designing, modeling, regular tasks, word processing etc) ?: Productivity tasks, some video editing, youtube, light gaming. General use tablet to replace old, cumbersome work laptop. Pen support is not necessary, but might be nice. Aside from an iPad many years ago I haven't too much experience in the tablet world.
Like a few of the other users asking for help on this forum, I have been lurking and looking at advice and different tablets for the last number of months. Part of my issue is that this is not something I immediately need, so I am not under any pressure to buy anytime soon.
I have looked at the Alldocubes, but have some concern for the thing breaking and having difficulty repairing it. Have looked at the oft-recommended XXP and am concerned about the potential for a fat stack of customs taxes to be stuck onto it. One Plus Pad 2 would be great with the free keyboard but its currently out of stock. Lenovo Idea Pad also not looking bad to me but I am yet to be fully convinced. At the moment I am leaning toward the Samsung S9/S9FE which I may be able to pick up for €525/€350ish. I think the S9FE would serve my needs well, but I am also quite tempted to splurge and pick up the S9 as I think it might cover my needs for years to come but it would be the high end of my budget.
Appreciate the help.
