When it comes to iPad rivals, there aren't that many worthwhile alternatives that spring to mind offering comparable power and versatility. But Samsung is the standout exception and right now the excellent Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra can be had with a record 49% off on Amazon.

As you'll see from our Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra review, we praised the super-slate at launch for its excellent performance, its versatility across work and play, and its superb display; all of which landed it a spot on our best tablets rundown at the time. However, its feature-packed nature meant it was also incredibly expensive; an ailment which a combination of being 18 months on from launch and Black Friday deals look to have remedied.

Right now, the Tab S8 Ultra is available with up to a record 49% off, squarely landing it a place on our Black Friday tablet deals roundup. That means, for the 256GB WiFi-only model, you pay just over $565.62 for a slate that's usually $1,099.99 (there are UK deals too, read on for those).
