While those who don’t mind spending much more on their tablets should definitely go for the Microsoft Surface Go 2 (review) that stands as a strong contender.While the power and volume buttons might appear unresponsive, holding the power and home buttons together should still reset the Galaxy S7. If having a keyboard is an absolute must for your use case, then the Lenovo Chromebook Duet (review) could be a great option, considering it gets you a complete package for a tiny asking price.

The Lenovo Tab M10 FHD Plus (review) could be another device worth checking out, especially since it costs exactly what the Galaxy Tab A7 does.

Samsung hasn’t shared any pricing detail for that accessory. You can also pair this tablet with a book cover that Samsung sells separately. It is expected to ship starting this month itself and should cover other markets in the following weeks. For the 4G LTE option, the price goes slightly up to €289 or around $340. If you go for its base Wi-Fi-only model, you’ll have to spend €229 or about $270.
