Android tablets don't get better than this. But do you really need all this power in such a form factor? And why isn't the screen Ultra-HD 4K for the best possible media experience?

Luscious OLED screen; S Pen stylus included - which works a treat; 10 hour battery life for streaming; Top tier power; A potentially savvy laptop alternative

Rather pricey; Android OS doesn't always feel right on such a large screen; Screen reflections; Not a UHD/4K panel; Just the one port

A true iPad Pro alternative that brilliantly balances productivity and entertainment. It'll be overkill for some, and pricey once you factor in the optional keyboard, but the Galaxy Tab S7+ is comfortably the best Android tablet around.

Stunning; ultra-smooth screen; Unrivalled performance; S Pen well integrated - and included in the box

iOS still beats Android on big screens; Costs more than many laptops; No headphone jack

The Tab S7+ is one of the most accomplished tablets on the market , but Android ‘s lack of optimisation for this form factor still holds it back slightly.

Stunning display; Stellar performance; Great speakers; Excellent S-Pen

Average software optimisation; Awkward S-Pen charging

The Samsung Galaxy Tab S7+ wows with strong performance and a gorgeous 12.4-inch Super AMOLED display, and its S Pen and optional 5G make it the best Android productivity tablet you can get.

Solid build quality; Beautiful Super AMOLED display; Textured S Pen tip makes writing on screen feel natural; 5G connectivity option

S Pen can easily become dislodged; Android app integration still falls behind iPadOS; Optional Book Cover Keyboard Case feels flimsy

Utterly unbeatable display, Includes S Pen, Very fast in everything it does, 5G option if you’ve money to burn

Software still a bit unpredictable, App selection remains far superior elsewhere

Despite its high price and second-best PC-like experience, this is the best Android tablet we’ve tested Punchy, immersive screen Effective quad speakers Premium look and feel Better app support in iPadOS No headphone jack Expensive

There’s no doubt the Galaxy Tab S7+ is the best tablet Samsung has ever made. It is leagues ahead of the company’s previous efforts and most definitely the best Android tablet you can buy, too.

Pros: fantastic screen, great performance and battery, good speakers, good webcam, USB-C, microSD card slot, Dex, split-screen, good fingerprint scanner, S Pen.

Cons: expensive, keyboard case expensive accessory, not all apps support Dex mode, some apps quit or crash when resizing, mouse support is inconsistent, no headphone socket.

Great tablet. I use it for university and travel and it boots up very quickly, has great optics and a great and clear display. I am very happy with it. The only reason I give 4 stars is because the tablet no longer comes with a USB or headphone ports, only the charger port.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 and S7 Plus are some of the finest hardware you'll see in the market for Android tablets....

Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 Plus: The Galaxy Tab S7 Plus is gunning for the iPad Pro and it mostly succeeds

Cheaper than iPad Pro (2020); Bundled stylus; Laptop-like performance

Keyboard cover costs extra (if you don’t preorder); Shorter battery life than Tab S6
