Samsung Galaxy Tab A11+ 11" Grey 2026

The Galaxy Tab A11+ scores 48.8 out of 100, with a 7040mAh battery at the 72nd percentile and a 90Hz display that punches above its price. But the MediaTek MT8775 CPU sits at the 7th percentile, making this a kids tablet first and everything else second. At USD 280 it's a decent deal, at USD 350 it's a harder sell.

Let's talk about that MediaTek MT8775, because it's the elephant in the room. At the 7th percentile for CPU performance, this chip is one of the weakest we've seen in a modern tablet. The 2.5 GHz clock speed sounds fine on paper, but real-world performance puts it behind nearly everything else in our database. The GPU is even worse at the 9th percentile, so gaming is limited to 2D titles and very light 3D. The 6GB of RAM is about average at the 53rd percentile, which helps with app switching but can't rescue the processor.

The 11-inch 1920x1200 LCD with a 90Hz refresh rate is a genuine bright spot. The screen sits at the 44th percentile, which is solid for this price range, and the 90Hz refresh rate makes scrolling and animations feel smoother than you'd expect from a budget tablet. The 7040mAh battery lands at the 72nd percentile, which translates to all-day use for reading, streaming, and light browsing. Dolby Atmos quad speakers are a nice touch for movie nights, and the 128GB of eMMC storage is about average at the 55th percentile, though the microSD slot up to 2TB gives you plenty of room to grow.

Against the Apple iPad Pro M4, this thing gets absolutely demolished on performance, the M4 chip is in a different universe compared to the MT8775. But the iPad Pro costs several times more, so that's not a fair fight. The Lenovo Yoga Tab Plus and Xiaomi Pad 6 both offer better processors and sharper displays for not much more money, though neither includes a kid-friendly stylus and case out of the box. The Microsoft Surface Pro 11th Edition is a full laptop replacement, which makes the A11+ look like a toy by comparison, but again, the price gap is massive. For the money, the A11+ holds its own in the kids tablet niche, but it's not competing with premium tablets and shouldn't be judged as one.

Pricing is all over the map depending on where you shop. In the US, you'll find this tablet ranging from USD 280 to USD 350 across five listings, which is a USD 70 spread for the exact same hardware. Best Buy tends to have the most consistent pricing at the lower end of that range. In Canada, the spread is even wider at CAD 270 to CAD 510 across eight listings, so shopping around matters. At the low end, you're getting a 90Hz display, 5G, and a stylus for under USD 300, which is genuinely good value for a kids tablet. At the high end, you're paying iPad-adjacent money for a chip that can't keep up with an iPad.

The Galaxy Tab A11+ scores a 48.8 out of 100 in our database, which lands it firmly in the middle of the pack for Android tablets. That's not a knock, it's just reality. The 90Hz 11-inch display and 7040mAh battery are the headline acts here, while the MediaTek MT8775 processor sits at the 7th percentile for CPU performance, which is rough. But for a kids-focused tablet that doubles as a budget media machine, the numbers tell a more forgiving story than the raw scores suggest.

Samsung is pitching this as the everyday tablet that grows with your kids, and the feature set backs that up. You get stylus support with the included Crayo-Pen, expandable storage up to 2TB, a fingerprint reader, face unlock, and 5G connectivity. The 4.5-star rating across 235 reviews says buyers are mostly happy. But the GPU sits at the 9th percentile, so don't expect this thing to handle anything beyond casual games without wheezing.

If you need a tablet for productivity, look elsewhere. The productivity score of 40.5 out of 100 is the weakest area for this device, and the 7th percentile CPU will make multitasking between documents, spreadsheets, and video calls feel like wading through molasses. Anyone who wants to play games beyond casual 2D titles should also skip this, the 9th percentile GPU simply can't keep up. And if you're an adult looking for a primary tablet for work or creative projects, the 8MP rear camera and eMMC storage will leave you wanting more. This is a kids tablet with a kids tablet's limitations, and that's okay, just don't buy it expecting an iPad competitor.

The Galaxy Tab A11+ is a solid kids tablet and a mediocre general-purpose Android tablet. The 90Hz display, 7040mAh battery, and included Crayo-Pen make it a genuinely good pick for families who want a durable, connected device for reading, streaming, and light creative work. But the 7th percentile CPU and 9th percentile GPU mean this thing will frustrate anyone trying to do real work or play anything beyond casual games. If you can find it at the USD 280 end of the price range, it's a reasonable buy. At USD 350, you're better off looking at the Lenovo Yoga Tab Plus or waiting for a sale.
