Tablet under 30,000?

Suggest tablets under 30k(sim card not required)

Any specific requirement ?

The S6 Lite(supports SPen) by Samsung is a good choice. The Apple`s are great if you are into note-taking. You dont have many options in the tablet department like phones

I have Samsung S6 Lite which came with S-Pen. I bought it for ₹33K.
It's very basic Tablet, which suits for Zoom call based online classes.

If you have very basic usage....
Get samsung tab A7
Else get Samsung tab S7 series device for what it's worth.

Consider looking into used tablets..

I am buying ipad 6th gen 128gb for 23k from OLX. (Bought another one ~8 months back with 1st gen pencil for 32k). Tab S6 lite is decent but people are asking for ~25-26k for a used one.. Not worth it when I can get ipad for a lower price..

I got an S6 Lite recently for 22.7k from Samsung Shop online after Student/Corporate discount and HDFC instant cashback. You can also get a Samsung Buds+ for Rs 1999 when you buy an S6 Lite.

I found that a decent deal.

Bit off-topic: I connected Logitech MK275 Keyboard+Mouse to S6 Lite, and Tablet started behaving like mini Laptop with mouse pointer

I had bought an iPad Mini 5 last year for 35k. At the time, was also looking for sub-30K models, and the iPad 10.2 fits there. Though not sure if you're interested in the iPad OS system but I use an Android phone and keep the iPad - best of both worlds.

Thank You everyone.
How is iPad gen 8 compared to s6 lite?
going to use it for at least 3 years.
Web browsing,note-taking,readin and watching videos will be main requirement.
There are unconfirmed reports from reputable sources that iPad 9th gen is releasing spring 2021. (Source 1 and Source 2)
Should I wait or go ahead with s6 lite/ipad 8th gen?
Not in hurry but I need tablet in April.

If you are into organised Note-taking(like Subjects,chapters) go for an iPad . The Apple ecosystem has great apps for Note-taking like Notability/Goodnotes which the Samsung cannot offer . Getting Samsung is good if you are into general note taking and not a university student. The Apple`s smooth fluid feel and the connect with pencil(less latency) is much better than Samsung I feel.

The Tab S6 lite has a TFT display whereas the iPad 8th Gen will have a IPS display(bettery one)
The processor comparison Exynos 9611 vs A12 Bionic: tests and benchmarks . A12 Bionic wins here

Also to get a Apple pencil you have to shell out 10K extra other than the tab whereas its included in S6 lite
