Sky is letting shoppers spread the cost of the Samsung Galaxy S10 Ultra, and you can claim a free £329 keyboard to attach to the tablet
Tech-savvy shoppers seeking a high-end tablet for their artistic and browsing needs without the hefty price tag could be in luck. Sky is currently offering Samsung aficionados an opportunity to spread the cost of owning a Galaxy Tablet S10 Ultra with an affordable monthly plan.
Apple might need to step aside, as Sky's deal allows customers to snap up Samsung's top-tier tablet for just £29 a month – with an appealing freebie thrown into the mix. For a limited period, there's even a chance to snag a £329 trackpad and keyboard combo compatible with the tablet absolutely gratis. These extras automatically get added to the basket along with the tablet purchase.
The Samsung Galaxy S10 Ultra represents Samsung's elite tablet offering, boasting an array of features like a zippy MediaTek Dimensity 9300+ processor, an included S Pen stylus, and a substantial 14.6-inch Dynamic AMOLED display that operates smoothly with a 120Hz refresh rate.
Not to mention, it's equipped with a large capacity battery to keep you going for prolonged browsing and working sessions without the fret over power depletion. When you compare it to Sky's £34 a month iPad Pro, this Samsung deal might be much more convincing, especially with the huge freebie it comes with.

Product Description
In addition, tech experts from the Daily Express laid out their thoughts on the Samsung Galaxy S10 Ultra in this review, praising it highly: "Is the Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra a brilliant tablet? 100% yes!".
Tech editor David Snelling, hailed it a top-of-the-line tablet, saying: "This gadget is supremely powerful, comes packed with smart features, looks premium and has performance that won't crumble under pressure.
"The AMOLED screen is simply stunning and you even get that S Pen stylus in the box - that's something Apple charges over £100 to add."
However, David was put off with the screen size admitting that "However, no matter how good it is, that 14.6-inch panel is just too big for me, especially when travelling, and that's important as this is the time, like most people, when I use my tablet the most."
Further stating that those who have a soft spot for larger screens may love this behemoth and might benefit from the massive size for which it's the best but somewhat pricey option, concluding "Of course, some will love the mammoth display and if you genuinely need a super-sized screen then this is a solid, if very expensive, option. It ticks all the right boxes and you really won't be disappointed with your purchase."

The Google-owned platform has put out an update meaning selected older gadgets are no longer compatible. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 iPhone 7 Plus among the models affected Credit: Alamy YouTube now requires a minimum of iOS 16 installed on iPhones instead of iOS 15, and iPadOS 16 on iPads. More recent products are able to run iOS 16 and later so they're unaffected. But as with any software update, there is a cut off eventually. There are seven Apple devices that are too old to run iOS 16 / iPadOS 16 so they can't use the new YouTube app. This includes the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus, which were released back in 2016. See the full list below: iPhone 7 iPhone 7 Plus iPhone 6s iPhone 6s Plus iPhone SE iPad Air 2 iPad mini 4 Most of these are already on Apple's dreaded "vintage" list - and the iPad Air 2 is "obsolete". It's likely more popular apps will follow the same trend as YouTube given that dated kit can no longer handle the tech improvements. WhatsApp just did the same thing to a number of older iPhones. Doomed gadgets to STOP working properly in 2025 closures – phones, laptops & even home thermostats to go wrong in weeks However, affected users who wish to cling onto their current handset and still use YouTube have a back-up option.

Great choice of phones and contracts at the best prices I could find after a comprehensive search of a large number of alternatives. Clear communication, and my phone was delivered on the day and time it was stated by the company. Everything about the experience was good." However, one customer noted a more mixed experience, writing: "Requested my number to be changed which never did and had to phone iD Mobile to put in a new request. The simplest of things so giving three stars. Rest of the service was good." On the flip side, another five-star reviewer said: "Such a simple and super quick process to upgrade to a new phone. Had an issue online but called the call centre and was resolved by a lovely and helpful lady, the new phone arrived the next day. They were cheaper than the network provider themselves."
