God willing, we present what is useful
Many people are looking for laptops or tablets for remote work and learning. Most systems, especially for distance learning, accept a variety of devices, such as inexpensive phones priced from 360 dirhams, tablets from 500 dirhams, and laptops from 1,500 dirhams.
But I will put before you a selected group of devices that, God willing, will suit your needs, and each will have symbols indicating the suggested type of use. First, tablets:
• Samsung Tab A 10.5 2018
• Huawei MediaPad M5 Lite
Priced at 1,260 UAE dirhams
Very good specifications, with a stylus, running Android with all of Google's services, and it works with a SIM card for connectivity

• Apple iPad 2019
Priced at 1,150 UAE dirhams
Very good for distance learning; its drawback is storage capacity, so if you can get the next size up at 1,490 UAE dirhams with 128GB of storage, do so; otherwise this is sufficient if you stay away from photography and video.
