Our verdict

Choose the GrandPad for a senior with no tech experience and no home Wi-Fi — it arrives ready to use, connects over its own cellular signal, and family manages it remotely, all for a monthly fee. Choose the Samsung Galaxy Tab A11+ to buy once with no subscription: its Easy Mode enlarges icons and text for a simpler layout, and it adds full Google Play access and a bigger screen, as long as a family member helps with the first setup over Wi-Fi.
