What makes the Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 FE a favorite tablet
The Fan Edition label on this Samsung Galaxy tablet means you'll get some high-end features from the flagship counterparts without paying a premium, so it's a better pick for most people. This reduction further makes the Galaxy Tab S9 a more reasonable purchase.
The Galaxy Tab S9 along with the Tab S9+ (review) were launched at the end of 2023. The smaller model boasts a bright and sharp 10.9-inch LCD screen and is rated with a 90 Hz refresh rate. It is compatible with S Pen for drawing needs, which comes bundled in the tablet, saving you another $100 or so compared to buying separately.
It's fairly thin and lightweight for its size, having an aluminum chassis. The tablet and S Pen are certified with IP68 dust and water resistance, making them sturdier devices against water splashes and tiny debris. You can find a decent 8 MP at the back capable of recording 4K video and a capable 12 MP front-facing snapper with a wide lens.
Powering the Galaxy Tab S9 series is an Exynos 1380 SoC with an octa-core processor that performs fast in launching and switching apps. It also comes with a GPU that can manage graphics-intensive tasks and games. The battery life here is excellent, lasting a whole day with heavy usage and about two or three days with lighter workloads.
