Best Budget Tablet/Laptop?

First of all I think this is a really great tablet. I'm currently using a tablet to write this review with the bluetooth keyboard and mouse I bought for it and the three together make a really great combination. In this review, I'll talk about the screen, battery, processing power, and connectivity. I might add a few things in a later update. The Samsung Galaxy Tab S4's screen was quite impressive, but when I first turned on the tablet, I immediately noticed strange framerate issues that were very noticeable. I thought for a second that maybe I got a broken tablet, but i decided to upgrade tablet. to see if it goes away and it did. Compared to my S4 it's definitely an upgrade but it's more eyestrain than my old tablet but looks better in my opinion. I really enjoy browsing social media, watching YouTube videos and texting. I'm typing way more than I have in the last 5 years and the onscreen keyboard is so easy to use. One thing I really want to complain about is that the blue light this tablet emits must be very strong because the day I started using this tablet it was a lot harder for me to fall asleep . Don't forget to turn on Night Shift to enjoy a few hours of zzzz. It also has a great screen and is perfect for tablet use in my experience. If you use it as a laptop, get a big iPad Pro. The battery will be short. The battery is very good, it has a 7606 mAh battery and can last several days without recharging. I don't play games on it but I use it as a college laptop and it's still very good. The 60Hz screen should really improve battery life as with very heavy use this tablet can last around 3 days before dying. If you're worried about battery life, don't worry because it's great. Processing power To understand: It has the same A14 Bionic processor as the iPhone 12 and is incredibly fast. It will be every game handle every college job and photo edit you can imagine. It only has 4GB of RAM, but it doesn't slow things down in any way. With this performance, the thing will be fast in 3 years. In short, I'm more worried about the end of the world than I am about this tablet's slow performance for years to come. Connectivity Connecting to my iPhone XS was very easy and both work together so easily I can't even explain it. I've had no issues connecting to my speakers, keyboard, wifi router, text messaging (just so you know your iPhone needs to be on to send text messages from the tablet), everything works great. I've had trouble connecting my S4 to my speakers in the past and problems to connect my laptops to my Wi-Fi router and I'm very happy to see that I haven't had any issues with this tablet so far. In general? me. If you need a full laptop replacement for insane 4K video editing and have money to throw around, get the Apple iPad Pro 12.9-inch 4th Gen, but if you want more bang for your buck and will be using it primarily As a tablet and for the main work at school, mainly with Google Docs, heavy games or heavy media consumption, this tablet is more than enough. I got $50 off during Black Friday and I think that's a very good deal. I don't regret buying this tablet. In my opinion it's a much better tablet/laptop than the Samsung Galaxy Tab S7+,
