If you want a tablet that checks all the right tablet boxes — nothing more and nothing less — you don't need to drop $1,000. The Samsung Galaxy Tab A9+ is a reliable and capable low-cost tablet that'll get the job done for under $200.

As of Aug. 5, the Galaxy Tab A9+ with 64GB and WiFi connectivity is down to only $155.72 at Amazon. That's a savings of nearly 30% from its usual $219.99 and just $15 more than its record-low price from Prime Day.

When you think of Galaxy devices, you probably think of Samsung's flagship S-series lineup. The A-series is designed to deliver many of the same core essentials as the S series, but with a few swaps that bring down the price to budget-friendly territory. According to Samsung, the A-series tablets are "perfect for everyday tasks like streaming the latest movies, browsing the Internet or keeping the kids entertained."

The A9+, in particular, features an 11-inch display with slim bezels, quad speakers powered by Dolby Atmos, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 695 processor, expandable storage up to 1TB, and just OK battery life (it's fine, but nothing that impressive). Our friends at PCMag (also owned by Mashable's publisher Ziff Davis) called it the "best low-cost Android tablet you can buy" last year, noting that it "proficiently handles advanced productivity tasks as well as entertainment such as streaming and gaming at a low price." It's no laptop competitor, but it's not meant to be at sub-$200.
