    FULL STORY ======================================================================Copy link Facebook X Whatsapp Reddit Pinterest Flipboard Threads Email Share this article 0 Join the conversation Follow us Add us as a preferred source on Google Newsletter Subscribe to our newsletter Amazon has discounted the 256GB Samsung Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra to AU$1,597 , dropping it by AU$502 from its AU$2,099 RRP.

    That's the same price Amazon is charging for the smaller 256GB Galaxy Tab S11 , and AU$2 less than the AU$1,599 it costs direct from Samsung .

    This isnt quite the lowest price weve seen for the Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra on Amazon, with the 256GB model briefly dropping to AU$1,547 in June.

    Still, todays AU$1,597 price is only AU$50 more, plus the 512GB model is down to AU$1,799 from the AU$2,449 RRP and the 1TB version has dropped from AU$2,949 to AU$2,299 . Save 24% (AU$502) Samsung Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra 256GB: was AU$2,099 now AU$1,597 at Amazon

    Thanks to this discount, the 256GB Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra currently costs the same as Amazons smaller Galaxy Tab S11, making this the model Id choose if you've been pining for the larger 14.6-inch display. Otherwise, the standard S11 may still suit you better if portability is the priority the 128GB version is 21% off RRP, at AU$1,099 . View Deal Amazon is the simpler option if you just want an easy purchase and fast delivery, but other retailers such as JB Hi-Fi also have the S11 Ultra for just a few dollars more .

    Another option worth checking out is Samsungs current trade-in offer , which could work out cheaper if you have an eligible tablet. Samsung is selling the 256GB Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra for AU$1,599 and, until 26 August, is adding a guaranteed AU$500 bonus credit on top of your devices assessed trade-in
    value.

    One catch your old tablet must be eligible for Samsungs trade-in program and retain an assessed value above AU$0 .

    But, I hear you ask, what makes the Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra truly worth the rather large price tag?

    In our Samsung Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra review , we said wed be hard-pressed to find a bigger and better display on an Android tablet. The 14.6-inch AMOLED screen earned a full 5/5 in our testing, with enough brightness for outdoor use, while the included S Pen and expansive display make it particularly well suited to watching movies, gaming and drawing.

    Our reviewer also found Samsungs One UI software made excellent use of the
    big screen for multitasking, with the tablet handling a video call, game and floating YouTube window at the same time without slowing down.

    Battery life impressed too, lasting 11 hours while streaming 1080p video at full brightness, helping explain why the S11 Ultra remains our best premium Android tablet pick in our buying guide.

    No tablet is perfect, and the main caveat for the S11 Ultra from our testing is the MediaTek Dimensity 9400+ chipset, which we found disappointing considering the RRP is over AU$2,000.

    Yes, it's a clear improvement over the Tab S10 Ultra and handles games well, but it falls well short of competitors like the M5 iPad Pro for outright processing power. That said, while the current AU$502 discount does not fix the performance shortfall, at AU$1,597 rather than AU$2,099, it makes our review criticisms considerably easier to swallow. Especially when the closest equivalent iPad Pro is AU$2,599 .

    So overall, I think that at the current discount, the S11 Ultra is an easy recommendation for those who want the biggest possible screen for movies, games, drawing and multitasking.
