Google Pixel Tablet The Pixel Tablet has a premium design and runs on the same processor as Google's flagship Pixel 7 phone series. With the Pixel Tablet, Google is trying for the second time to enter the tablet space that's dominated by Apple's iPads.

Samsung's Galaxy S23 and Galaxy S23 Plus only differ in size, battery life, and storage options. If you prioritize battery life, though, you should opt for the larger Galaxy S23 Plus. Choosing between the Galaxy S23 and Galaxy S23 Plus can simply boil down to size preference — if you prefer smaller phones, the Galaxy S23 is your champion, and those who prefer larger screens should gravitate toward the Galaxy S23 Plus.
