A 10 inch tablet (or 25.4cm tablet) is the perfect mid-sized tablet for working, browsing, video calling, gaming and reading. They offer medium-size screens with crystal-clear definition and powerful processors to maximise entertainment and make sure you’re able to work effectively on the go, and their slim, lightweight designs mean they’re easy to hold in one hand. Plus, as they’re a few inches bigger than a large smartphone, it can make it easier to read content if you struggle with reading on a smaller device.
Whatever you might need a 10-inch screen for, find the best 10-inch tablet for you.

A 10-inch tablet offers a more immersive viewing experience than on a smartphone thanks to its larger screen size, and can offer the same incredible screen technology as smartphones.
iPad 10.2 is built for boosting your creativity. With incredible detail and vivid colours, the 10.2‑inch Retina display is perfect for watching movies, working on a project, or drawing your next masterpiece. True Tone adjusts the display to your surroundings, so you can comfortably use iPad 10.2 at any time of day or night.

Plus, with Samsung’s One UI navigation system, you can customise your home screen by grouping relevant apps together, making it easy to tap into your favourite entertainment apps.
A lot of 10-inch tablets are compatible with a stylus, which can make it easier to navigate to your favourite apps, take notes, and practice handwriting for younger ones across their medium-sized screens - you hold them like you’d hold a pen to use them.
iPad 10.2 supports Apple Pencil*. Using Apple Pencil is as natural as putting pen to paper, but with capabilities that make handwriting as powerful as typed text. Take unforgettable notes, create a work of art, mark up screenshots, and much more.
Several slightly smaller Samsung Galaxy tablets are compatible with the S Pen, which lets you doodle, create and annotate documents. Whether you want to get some work done on the go or you’re sketching your dream home, the S Pen will transform your ideas into reality - it boasts an impressive pressure sensitivity, meaning you don’t have to press down hard on the display to draw or tap, and features a natural grip to keep the stylus secure in your hand.
*Apple Pencil (1st generation) and Smart Keyboard sold separately.
Easy to use operating systems with your 10 inch tablet
