Hey y’all,

There’s currently a sale on the Samsung S10+ tablet which I decided to buy out of curiosity. I am absolutely blown away by how good the screen is. I currently own a Pixel 9 so I’m definitely an AMOLED snob and the Samsung software has come a long way. Dex is also a great feature.

However I find it to be a bit too big and heavy with a case and the one accessory which solves the problem the official keyboard case, is 200+ dollars. I am considering returning it as it’s a pretty massive investment for what is essentially a YouTube machine.

I just wanted to crowdsource some opinions and see what my options are. I’m considering waiting for an S9 to go on sale instead but the S9 won’t be supported as long as the S10+. The pixel tablet is also on sale so it’s an option if I can live with a 60hz screen.

    Fair concern, but the burn in issue is unlikely to occur on a media viewing device.

      That is true, but it depends on the media. Moving media, like movies, absolutely correct.

      Media where most of the UI is static, like a music player or comic book reader? Could be a problem.
