Some x86 2-in-1 because Android and iOS suck.

what do you want to do with it?
Kinda need a new tablet myself as well, all I want to do is read PDF's and eBooks. But for the price of an acceptable ebook reader I might as well pick up an iPad and have much more versatile device.

e-ink screen is nicer for reading, easier on the eyes

depends on your use case and budget, there is no 1 size fits all as there is no 1 best laptop. Detail your needs.
The catch with samsung tablets, that the Tab S9 series is better than the followups, because Samsung thinks they can get away with mediashit chips in 1000USD devices. The Plus is a sweet spot with it's 12.5" display size.
If you are applefag or plan on content creating on it be it photograph editing or video cutting, iPads are better
If you need fuckhuge flexibility, x86 tablets are the way to go.

Well, there isn't a simple answer. As others have mentioned here, it depends on both your usecase and budget. I wanted one for simple emulation up to PS1 with lite shaders, content consumption, reading comic books and manga, studying classes and PDFs, and drawing with a cheap stylus, so for me something like the used Galaxy Tab A8 I got was perfect. Let's say you want one for heavier tasks and programs, or you need an active stylus, then the Tab A lineup doesn't cut it, so the Tab S FEs would be better for you. Oh, but what if you need HDMI output? Then it needs to be a flagship. You need a laptop like proportion, that'd mean you need the Plus or the Ultra. If you prefer Apple, the A16 is perfect unless you want to do more demanding things, then an Air would be better, the Pro in my eyes is a bit too much, except for a few people. Oh, you want other brands? There's a ton of 'em.

So ask yourself this:
>What's the budget I'll work with?
>What brands do I like and which ones do I hate?
>What smartphone do I have and do I want them to seamlessly interact?
>What tasks are a must for me and make me want to have a tablet in the first place now?

If "best" is the most adaptable with the largest amount of software and capabilities then it's been the Surface Pro (x86) for like ten years now. But that may not fit your needs or budget.

The best iPad within your budget.

If the cheapest one (base 11th Gen with the A16, 11-inch) is too expensive, stop being broke or buy something used I guess.

I think the regular Galaxy Tab S9 is by far the best one out right now.

If reading is the main priority, get an E ink device. I've had a boox page 7 for a while and it is wonderful. It's also Android, so you're not locked in and can acquire your books from the high seas or anywhere else you please.

You want bang for your buck? Performance over marketing? Even thinkpads are obsolete at this point!
