One commenter under last week’s poll made an interesting point – the Samsung Galaxy Tab S12 Ultra starts at $1,400 for a 12/256GB model and this is without the keyboard, which is an extra $380. Why not get a MacBook instead. A 13” MacBook Air with an M5 chipset, 16GB of RAM and 512GB of storage costs $1,300.
The 15” version is $1,500. So, you get a faster chipset, more RAM, more storage and a keyboard for around the same price as the Tab S12 Ultra – less, actually, if you need a keyboard. 13” MacBook Air for $1,300 or a 16” Galaxy Book6 for $1,450 Don’t want to deal with macOS.
Weekly poll results: the Galaxy Tab S12+ and Tab S12 Ultra make laptops look reasonably priced. Why not a Galaxy Book6 with a 16” touchscreen – Samsung US sells them for $1,450. This laptop runs Windows 11 on an Intel Core Ultra 7 355 with 16GB of RAM and 512GB storage.
The non-touch version is $100 cheaper, but that also drops the CPU to an Intel Core Ultra 5 325. And if you absolutely must have Android apps, why not a Googlebook laptop.
