If you’re going on a long journey, it always helps to be well prepared to keep yourself entertained as the hours roll by. Lengthy train trips can be broken up with a bit of binge watching your favourite series.
That means that backpack staples for such a journey are earphones and something to watch your shows on. While smartphones are increasing in size, some of them are still too small to fully enjoy your viewing experience.
That’s where tablets come in. There are lots of different brands promoting their latest models, but many people are looking for a saving or a deal to make spending the money worth it.

Well Argos currently has a deal on a top brand that could be right for you. They are giving tech lovers £20 off the Samsung Galaxy Tab A9, dropping the price from £129 to £109.
The Samsung Galaxy Tab A9’s 8.7 inch screen makes watching films more comfortable and it can easily be stored away after use. Its multi-window features allows you to tackle multiple tasks at once, so you can video chat with your friends and family while also surfing the web or viewing your photos.
On top of this, the tablet easily syncs up with your Samsung phone, so you can move a task from one device to the other with the app continuity – making your life just a bit easier.

Lags are also halted by the system having up to 4GB of RAM, with a hefty 64GB of internal storage. If this isn’t enough for you, there is an option to expand to 1TB. The Samsung Galaxy Tab A9 seems to be ticking all the right boxes for customers as it currently has a 4.7 star rating and 96 per cent of customers said they would recommend this tablet to others.
One happy customer wrote: “I’ve been using Samsung products for a lot of years now and never been let down. The Galaxy range is a big favourite.”
A second customer gave a five-star rating, dubbing the tablet as “perfectly perfect, sleek and smart” and writing that both themselves and their son love it.

While another customer said: “I have had this tablet for just over two weeks and I must say it’s an excellent little tablet for the price just the right size for my use. Very easy to set up no problem whatsoever.”
However, some reviewers have mentioned issues with glitching, as one wrote: “Bought for my daughter to play Roblox but, as she puts it, it glitches too often, obviously cant handle moderate graphics etc.”
Another had an issue with the screen sensitivity: “Be aware that screen sensitivity decreases significantly when using a glass screen protector – unlike higher-spec Android tablets, there’s no option on this to adjust screen touch sensitivity.”
