Oh, and Samsung also makes some tablets that are basically big versions of its Galaxy Note phones. If you’re looking for a tablet and need help sorting them all out, our reviews below should help.

It should also be thin, light, and have a battery that lasts long enough that you don't have to worry about it dying on your commute.
