MasTomi, 06 Oct 2023no s-pen support? passSpen support would drive the cost up by at least $100, and this tablet is supposed to be budget. If you need a cheaper Spen tablet, get a used tab s6

    CargoJoe, 09 Oct 2023Yeah. On a budget tablet. they can add for s-pen support and sell the s-pen as accessories.

    they can profit from that.

These tablets are still e-waste, for those poor countries even those tablets are too expensive. I'm from Venezuela by the way, whose economy and inflation rates has been on Zimbawe levels. I know personally dozens of people who couldn't afford these.

The RAM amount is the concerning part, as 4GB definitely won't be sufficient.

                                So many people not getting the strategy... this tablet's whole purpose is to be offered in bundle deals to add value. E.g. Galaxy A54 + Tab A9.

                                It's not really intended as a standalone thing but more as a gift.

                                    Was there on hollidays. Even average Slovakian would feel there like a richest person in world. And average slovakian earns 1000 euros a month from which like 40-60% goes to bills for rent, water, gas and electricity. So you wil not have much to living peacefuly or to spare something for holidays or so.
                                    I really dont think there is something a lot worse maybe equal but not worse.
