Samsung has announced two new tablets, the Galaxy Tab S10 FE and Galaxy Tab S10 FE+, which bring together the power and AI features found in its Galaxy A56 smartphone with the big screen options provided by its Galaxy Tab S10 series tablets. Confused as to what Samsung means by FE? The name came about in an unusual way, but is now applied to affordable devices which provide good value, such as the Galaxy S24 FE.

What about the two new Tab S10 FE models? There are two primary technical differences between the two new models. The Galaxy Tab S10 FE has a 10.9-inch, 90Hz LCD screen and an 8,000mAh battery, while the Galaxy Tab S10 FE+ has a 13.1-inch, 90Hz LCD screen and a 10,090mAh battery. Obviously this makes the Galaxy Tab S10 FE+ larger and heavier — it’s 664 grams rather than 497 grams — but both measure just 6mm thick. 

We mentioned the power and AI smarts coming from the Galaxy A56 smartphone. Both tablets use the same Samsung Exynos 1580 processor as the latest phone from the brand, with a choice of either 8GB RAM and 128GB of storage space, or 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage space. In our review of the Galaxy A56 we didn’t come across any performance issues with the Exynos 1580, so we expect it to be acceptable for the new Galaxy Tab S10 FE tablets. 

The tablets don’t have Samsung’s full suite of Galaxy AI features, just like the Galaxy A56. Google’s Circle to Search is onboard though, plus there’s Handwriting Help and Solve Math features which operate in Samsung Notes, highlighting the tablet will be good for students. There’s also the Best Face feature, Auto Trim for video, and Object Eraser in the Gallery app. 

Other features include a 13-megapixel main camera and a 12MP front camera, 45W wired charging just like the Galaxy A56, dual speakers, a fingerprint sensor in the power button, a MicroSD card slot, and an IP68 dust and water resistance rating. Google Android 15 is installed, which means Samsung’s excellent One UI 7 should also be present. The tablets work with both Samsung’s keyboard options — the Slim and standard models — to make it suitable for work and play.

Available from April 2, the Galaxy Tab S10 FE and Galaxy Tab S10 FE+ will come in grey, silver, or blue, and with the option of either Wi-Fi or 5G connectivity.  The Galaxy Tab S10 FE starts at 499 British pounds (about $645) and the Galaxy Tab S10 FE+ at 649 pounds (about $840).

A pair of new Samsung tablets are right around the corner. Over the past couple of weeks, alleged renders of the upcoming Galaxy Tab S10 FE and its Plus variant have given us a glimpse of its design language. Now, a trusted outlet shared more purported marketing assets, alongside the internal hardware details and pricing information.
The leaked assets come courtesy of WinFuture, showing both the tablets in three color options from all sides. The design language is your typical Samsung affair with a metallic shell and flat sides, covered in a silver, blue, or dark grey coat of paint.

Let’s hope Samsung has other plans with pricing

Samsung might charge a bomb for the svelte Galaxy S25 Edge

So far, Samsung has only given a see-but-no-touch glimpse of its ultra-thin Galaxy S25 Edge smartphone. It’s going to be a vehicle of engineering showcase for Samsung, but to an average buyer, the phone might leave a rather big hole in their wallets.
According to the folks over at Android Headlines, Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge’s 12GB RAM / 256GB storage variant will reportedly fall in the ballpark of €1,200 and €1,300, which roughly translates to $1,300 and $1,400 based on current conversion rates.
For the higher end-variant with double the onboard storage, Samsung is reportedly eyeing an asking price in the range of €1,300 and €1,400m, which broadly comes in at $1,400 to $1,522 apiece. For comparison, Apple’s upcoming iPhone 17 Air could cost somewhere around $900 upon its launch later this year.
