___________________________________________________________________________
Galaxy S20 FE ($549, originally $699; amazon.com or samsung.com)
Samsung’s Galaxy S20 FE takes the best parts of the more expensive Galaxy S20 lineup, like an impressive camera, display and battery life, but leaves out all of the fluff and extra cost. More specifically, it has a 6.5-inch Super AMOLED display that’s sharp and bright, three rear-facing cameras, and it uses the same Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 processor, the same as the pricier S20 lineup.
___________________________________________________________________________
Galaxy Note 20 Ultra ($1,049, originally $1,299; amazon.com or samsung.com)

Galaxy Z Flip 5G ($1,249.99, originally $1,449.99; amazon.com or samsung.com)
Samsung’s folding display technology is fascinating, and the Z Flip 5G does a fantastic job of showing it off. The phone collapses in half like an old flip phone your dad would have used years ago, but instead of a single small display with a physical keyboard below it, there’s a 6.7-inch screen that actually bends and folds in half on the inside. It’s a full Android phone when it’s open, and has some fancy camera features that only a foldable display can offer.
___________________________________________________________________________
Motorola Edge ($399.99, original $699.99; amazon.com)
The Motorola Edge is a flagship Android phone from the company that brought us the Razr. The 6.7-inch screen has curved edges on both vertical sides, thus the Edge name. It looks nice, but it also serves a purpose; it makes the phone feel thinner and easier to hold. In addition to a unique screen, the Edge comes with three rear-facing cameras, including a 64-megapixel camera that we found to capture plenty of detail.
___________________________________________________________________________
Google Pixel 5 ($649, originally $699; amazon.com)
Google’s Pixel line is known for getting quick updates, providing a clean Android experience with one of the best smartphone cameras available. The Pixel 5 is no different. With the 5, Google went back to a fingerprint reader on the back of the phone, kept the camera system mostly the same as the Pixel 4 line, and has a cool-looking green color that we can’t get enough of.
___________________________________________________________________________
Motorola Razr 5G ($999, originally $1,399; amazon.com)
Motorola brought back the Razr brand with a foldable smartphone. Just like the Galaxy Z Flip 5G from Samsung, the Razr 5G boasts a screen that actually folds in half without breaking.

___________________________________________________________________________
OnePlus 8 Pro ($799, originally $999; amazon.com or oneplus.com)
OnePlus is known for making phones that are affordable, but competitive with phones that are much more expensive. The OnePlus 8 Pro fits that mold, with a 6.78-inch QHD+ 120Hz display, a four-camera setup on the back all-day battery life and 5G connectivity. We found the OnePlus 8 Pro to be everything OnePlus promised and then some. It’s certainly an Android phone worth considering.
___________________________________________________________________________
TCL 10L ($174.99, originally $249.99; amazon.com)
Don’t let the price fool you, the TCL 10L is a capable $250 phone at its regular price. Our testing found it offers good battery life, a decent camera and display, but mediocre performance. Better said: The TCL 10L is a fine phone for someone who doesn’t need or want a lot from phone. Think a tween or teen’s first phone.
___________________________________________________________________________
Tablets
Fire HD 10 Tablet (Starting at $79.99, originally $149.99; amazon.com)
For just shy of $80 you’ll get a 10-inch HD display that’s perfect for reading in the Kindle app, browsing the web and even streaming movies or TV shows from a plethora of services. The Fire HD 10 is running a customized version of Android and gives you full access to the Amazon App Store.

___________________________________________________________________________
8th Gen iPad (Starting at $299, originally $329; amazon.com)
The entry-level iPad seriously impresses with a 10.2-inch Retina display and an A12 Bionic chip inside. This is the perfect device for personal or work with the ability to scale for intense applications. It’s also our pick for best tablet.
___________________________________________________________________________
iPad Mini (Starting at $334.99, originally $399; amazon.com)
The iPad Mini is the smallest tablet Apple makes, but it’s no slouch. With Apple Pencil support, the Mini is the ideal tablet for someone who wants the flexibility of a tablet, but something that’s easy to manage and carry around. The 7.9-inch display is perfect for reading, be it through Apple Books or Kindle Unlimited.
___________________________________________________________________________
11-inch iPad Pro (Starting at $799, originally $899; amazon.com)
The 11-inch iPad Pro shares all of the same features as the bigger version, only in a more compact size.

And, yes, it’ll work with a keyboard and trackpad if you want to use it more like a laptop.
___________________________________________________________________________
Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ($249.99, originally $349.99; bhphotovideo.com or samsung.com)
Samsung’s Galaxy Tab S6 Lite isn’t the most impressive tablet we’ve tested when it comes to performance, but as long as you keep that in mind, it provides a solid Android experience. Battery life is impressive, and it even comes with an S Pen stylus that can be used to write or draw on the 10.4-inch display with.
___________________________________________________________________________
Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 (Starting at $549.99, originally $649.99; bhphotovideo.com or samsung.com)
The Galaxy Tab S7 is currently our top pick for the best Android tablet in 2020, and for good reason. The 11-inch LCD display is stunning, and if you pick up the optional keyboard/trackpad combo accessory from Samsung, you can use DeX to convert the Android interface into a laptop-like OS, complete with app windows and all.
___________________________________________________________________________
Samsung Galaxy Tab S7+ (Starting at $742.77, originally $842.77; bhphotovideo.com or samsung.com)
Samsung’s Galaxy Tab S7+ was very close to being our top Android tablet pick, but ultimately we felt the S7 provided a better value. However, the S7+’s 12.4-inch Super AMOLED display, combined with the keyboard/trackpad accessory and DeX is a very tempting and compelling Android tablet.
