After weeks of waiting and multiple name changes, the device known as the Galaxy Tab S7+ Lite has now been quietly unveiled in Germany as the Galaxy Tab S7 FE 5G. Yes, Samsung is adopting the FE name for devices other than smartphones. The new tablet cuts some corners when compared to the Galaxy Tab S7 Plus and Galaxy Tab S7 but ends up being pricier than the vanilla Tab S7.
The display is 12.4-inches in size with a 2560 x 1600 resolution but it is an LCD panel. Powering the Galaxy Tab S7 FE is a Snapdragon 750G processor paired with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of expandable storage. It has been reported that there should be a 6GB RAM + 128GB version too.
There is an 8MP autofocus camera on the back of the device that slightly protrudes` while there is a 5MP front-facing camera in front for video calls. There are three built-in microphones to make sure your voice is picked up clearly during calls. Inside the tablet is a 10090mAh battery inside with support for 45W fast charging but you will have to purchase a 45W adapter separately. Samsung claims up to 13 hours of battery life for video playback.
The Galaxy Tab S7 FE comes with an S Pen included in the box. The low-latency pen has a soft tip and is said to feel like a real pen when writing with it. It converts your handwriting into text in real-time and charges automatically when placed on the magnetic part on the back panel.
The tablet supports Samsung DeX which when turned on provides users with a desktop-like environment with a start menu and a taskbar. With an optional keyboard cover, you can transform the Galaxy Tab into a small notebook. In normal tablet mode, the Galaxy Tab S7 FE supports up to 3 apps split-screen multitasking.
Samsung has put a price tag of €649 on this version of the tablet which is pretty expensive considering the Galaxy Tab S7 with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage and a more powerful processor is priced at €619. It is already available for purchase in Mystic Black and Mystic Silver with more colors to come later.
