Get a Galaxy tablet with £70 off as Currys beats Samsung's prices

Tablets have become key pieces of tech, whether using them at home or on the go for everything from streaming box sets to shopping online or devouring a good book. With so many devices on the market, it can be hard to know which device to pick. Currys is currently selling the Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 Lite 10.9-inch tablet with 128GB storage for £259. That’s an impressive £70 saving on the usual price of £329 at the electronics retailer. Thanks to a large 10.9" display with crisp 2K resolution and smooth 90Hz refresh rate, the Tab S10 Lite is ideal for watching films, playing games, or browsing photos taken on 8.0 MP rear and 5.0 MP front cameras. It’s handy for studying or homework too, thanks to the bundled S Pen stylus that turns the device into a digital notebook or sketchpad in seconds.

It comes with up to 8GB of memory, and an 8,000 mAh battery that Samsung says can deliver up to 16 hours of video playback. It also has a fingerprint scanner for extra security. If shoppers look directly on Samsung, the Galaxy S10 Lite tablet currently has 20% off with code ‘UNLOCK’. With the discount, that puts the 128GB model at £263.20 (down from £329) and the 256GB model at £311.20 (down from £389), although both can have their storage expanded with a microSD card. It still means the Currys deal will still work out more cheaper for shoppers with the £70 saving. For an even cheaper choice, the Honor Pad 9 is sold at Amazon for £179 . Despite its lower price tag, it boasts a larger 12.1-inch display with 120Hz refresh rate, and an eight-speaker immersive audio system, perfect for cosy evenings bingeing the latest series as the days are shorter. Several Currys shoppers are pleased with the Samsung Galaxy S10 Lite, however. One commented: “Fast performance with lasting battery. Enough storage.” A second added: “This was a purchase for my son for school. "He's very happy with it. He appreciates the ability to take notes with a pen. We also received a case as part of a promotion, so it's double the fun. We recommend it.” The tablet also has good reviews on the Samsung website, where it’s rated 4.7/5. A customer said: “Great size, ideal for what I use it for, i.e. games, social media, and browsing. Good price point too.” As part of a longer review on the Samsung website, one buyer said: “Only had this tablet a few weeks. So far I'm quite happy with it. It was easy to get used to. I can do everything that I want to with it, except it is not compatible with my printer.” Another shopper left five stars on the Currys website, but did note some drawbacks: “Very good tablet, especially for studies and lightweight daily things. It guarantees seven years’ smooth usage with updates, so awesome value for money, but the battery is a little short, and I think the screen size is also small.”
