I wish Samsung would release a tablet with the iPad form factor and 120Hz. A base model. That would be ideal for me. Something around the iPad 10 price, but with Android, 120Hz and same form factor.

Tab S9 11" or Tab S8 the latter no IP68 rating
S9 weights almost 500 grams. Too heavy to use comfortably. It doesn't have the iPad 4:3 form factor.

I tried it at the store and it's the best alternative to iPad, but was too heavy for me.

Tab A9+? It's 90Hz and doesn't support the S-Pen but it seems very sensibly spec-ed.

Unfortunately Samsung doesn't make iPad 10 price 120hz, the cheapest is the S9 fe which comes with 90hz and is $500
I would buy the S9 FE (great price right now at 360€ with free book cover included), but it's even heavier than S9 at 523 grams or so. These tablets are just too heavy for their size. They should be around 440 grams, just like the new Pro M4.
