Amazon Prime Members Can Get the Samsung Galaxy Tab A9 Plus for Just $133 Right Now

CNET15-05-2025
There are a lot of incredible tablets around, and while our favorite tablet available right now is made by Apple, plenty of other brands have excellent offerings too. Samsung is one of the best when it comes to the excellent options for Android users, and even caters to those with a budget in mind.
That gets even better with deals though, and if you're an Amazon Prime member, you can currently get your hands on the Samsung Galaxy Tab A9+ for just $133. That's an excellent price, given that the tablet is normally selling for $220. This deal will only last as long as the stock does though, since it's a clearance deal, so we're not expecting that to be long.
The Samsung Galaxy Tab A9 Plus has 64GB of storage, 4GB of RAM and a large 10.9-inch display, which is a solid offering when you consider the sale price. That midsize display and decent amount of storage are two of the main benefits. The whole thing is powered by Android and a Qualcomm Snapdragon 695 processor, which is now a few years old but should be fine for basic web tasks and video.
Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money.
If the 64GB storage limit is a concern, note that it can be expanded up to 1TB via an optional microSD card if required, and that's something that can be found pretty inexpensively. Four speakers with Dolby Atmos support round out the main specs of note, making this a solid movie-watching device.

Why this deal matters
Tablets are a great way to watch content, read books and do a whole lot more, but the best tablets can often be too expensive for many people. You can find cheaper options from less reputable brands, but this one carries the familiar Samsung badge and has plenty to offer at a price you can't afford to ignore. Plus, it's just a few dollars more than the all-time low price, which means it's highly unlikely that a better offer on this model will be popping up any time soon.

Your phone predicts an earthquake

I read a geeky article that I think you'll also find amazing. Google quietly used its Android operating system to turn billions of phones into the largest earthquake detection network in human history. Your Android phone can warn you about an earthquake before the shaking even starts. It's built right in. You can do the same with your iPhone, too. We're giving away a new iPhone 16 Pro (a $999 value). No purchase required. Enter to win now. Earthquakes begin with fast, subtle P-waves. Those are the early rumbles most people don't feel at all. But your phone's accelerometer (yep, the same sensor that knows when you turn your phone sideways) can detect those waves. When enough Android phones in the same area sense the same motion, Google's system kicks in and sends early alerts to people who are about to get hit by the stronger, slower S-waves. Those are the ones that cause damage. This gives you 15 to 60 seconds of warning. Not much time, but enough to move away from windows, duck under a desk or stop that ladder climb. Seconds matter when the ground starts rolling. According to a study in Science, the Android-based earthquake detection network caught over 11,000 real earthquakes between 2021 and 2024. It covers 98 countries and pushes out around 18 million alerts a month. In some cases, people had over a minute's notice before the shaking started. And false alarms? Just three total across more than 1,300 confirmed events. Try getting those odds from your weather app. That's incredible for a free feature hiding in your phone. Even if you don't live on the San Andreas Fault, make sure the setting is on in case you travel to an area where you need it: Got a Wear OS smartwatch? It'll buzz your wrist, too, even if your phone's in another room. Apple hasn't enrolled in Quake University (yet). Though iPhones have accelerometers, too, Apple doesn't use them for earthquake detection. If you're on Team iPhone, use the free MyShake to get alerts from official seismic networks.

Alarm.com comes to Apple CarPlay, now there's no excuse not to arm your home on the go

What's Happened? has rolled out Apple CarPlay support, letting iPhone users control smart home features like garage doors, lights, locks, and security scenes directly from their car's dashboard. This builds on existing Android Auto integration, with a focus on safe, tap-based commands to keep drivers' eyes on the road.

It's a win for families or business owners needing quick checks, reducing 'did I lock up?' anxiety without pulling over. In my Rivian R1s, I am able to use the integrated Alexa app to arm my system, but for those with Apple Carplay, this adds simple functionality. There is no mention as to whether there is Siri integration via Carplay, I will update the article if I get more information Compared to basic smart locks or thermostats, ecosystem (which we've praised for integrations like August Home) adds monitored security layers for peace of mind on the road. At no extra cost beyond your setup, it's an easy upgrade in a CarPlay era where distractions kill—stay safe, stay smart. Ok, What's Next?
