"As a Samsung tablet fan, the Galaxy Tab S9 FE perfectly fills the mid-range gap. For my creative needs, they cut the right corners to lower cost while retaining good pen input and screen." - Brad Colbow |

"I have an overall positive view of the Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 FE. The included S Pen works extremely well for notes and drawing. The display looks smooth at 90Hz and build quality is excellent. However, processing power falls short of cheaper rivals, so it's not ideal for gaming. Still an excellent mid-range tablet, but gamers should consider faster alternatives." - My Next Tablet |

Pros: - Good value for money - S Pen stylus included - 90Hz refresh rate display - Good build quality - Long battery life - Fast 45W charging - Versatile usage with keyboard cover - Smooth stylus and drawing experience - Good speakers - Long software support from Samsung Cons: - Not as powerful as premium tablets - Smaller screen size compared to other Samsung tablets - Lacks NFC |
Samsung has released an impressive new mid-range tablet, the Galaxy Tab S9 FE, which is a more budget version of its previous S9 model. The device still includes premium features like the S Pen stylus and smooth display while keeping the price low.
The Tab S9 FE sports a 10.9-inch screen with sharp image quality. The display refreshes at 90 Hz for smooth scrolling and graphics. The screen looks great for watching videos or working.
A fast S Pen stylus comes bundled with the tablet, suitable for taking notes and drawing. Writing and sketching feels responsive. The tablet supports Bluetooth keyboard accessories too for productivity.
I am also in love with the tablet's premium metal and glass build. Samsung promises over 4 years of major software updates, so consumers can be at ease about its longevity.
The Tab S9 FE ships with Android 13 and packs either 6GB or 8GB RAM. Storage options are 128GB or 256GB.
Performance Benchmarks Lower Than Rivals
The processing chip is not as fast as premium tablets. Users report lower benchmark scores versus cheaper rivals like Xiaomi's Pad 6. But the Tab S9 FE handles everyday tasks, creative apps, and casual games just fine.
Exceptional Battery Life
I am very impressed with the large 8,000 mAh battery. It lasts over 15 hours of internet use per charge. Fast 45-watt USB-C charging replenishes the battery quickly too.
Great Speakers, But Lacks Headphone Jack
You get loud stereo speakers tuned by AKG. But there is no 3.5mm headphone jack – you must use USB-C or Bluetooth audio.
Who Should Buy Samsung's Tab S9 FE?
At around $500, i would call the Galaxy Tab S9 FE a steal. It makes a few compromises on processor power and screen size. But the exceptional stylus experience, smooth display, premium build, long battery life and low price make it a great mid-range tablet.
The Tab S9 FE earns strong recommendations for students, creatives, and anyone seeking an affordable Samsung tablet with great versatility.
