How much should I spend on a good Android tablet?

Reviewers broadly agree you can get a competent media-and-browsing tablet for around $100-180 (Amazon Fire HD line, Galaxy Tab A11+), a solid mid-range Samsung with S Pen for roughly $230-480 (S10 Lite, S10 FE), and a flagship AMOLED experience for $500-plus (Tab S11). Spend up only if you need a premium screen, stronger performance, or serious multitasking.
