Lance Whitney/ZDNETTablets may be one of my favorite tech devices, thanks to their versatility: You can use one as an e-reader, for note-taking, as a smart home display, or even as a laptop replacement if it’s powerful enough. Features like portability, battery life, display, and accessory compatibility make a tablet a device that can be used for whatever you need it to.Also: The best Black Friday tablet deals live nowAt ZDNET, we test dozens of tablets every year and have our top picks, but our readers also have their own favorites. We gathered data on the top-selling tablets via links in ZDNET reviews, buying guides, and deals to come up with this list (your privacy is protected — we only have access to aggregate data from our user base, and there is no way for us to identify individual people’s purchases). These were our readers’ favorite tablets of 2025 so far (and almost all of them are on sale right now).
