Samsung’s Fan Edition (FE) tablets have become a reliable choice for those seeking a budget-friendly alternative to the premium Galaxy Tab series.
Following the success of the Galaxy Tab S9 FE, it seems the Galaxy Tab S10 FE is on the horizon.
Here’s everything we know so far about the release date, price, and expected features of the Galaxy Tab S10 FE.
When will the Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 FE be released?
Samsung has yet to officially announce a release date for the Galaxy Tab S10 FE. However, there are signs that it could launch relatively soon.
As per GalaxyClub’s report, a promotion on Samsung’s US website offering a one-year Goodnotes subscription for Tab S10 and Tab S10 FE buyers specifies the deal is valid for devices purchased and activated by 31 July 2025. This all but confirms that the Tab S10 FE will hit the market well before that date.

Looking at Samsung’s history, the Tab S7 FE launched in June 2021, while the Tab S9 FE debuted in October 2023.
This inconsistent timeline makes predictions tricky, but some suggest the Tab S10 FE could launch alongside the Galaxy S25 series in January 2025 or with the Galaxy A56, which is expected in March 2025.
Either way, a 2025 release seems highly likely.
How much will the Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 FE cost?
Pricing for the Galaxy Tab S10 FE is yet to be confirmed, but if Samsung follows its usual strategy, the tablet should target mid-range Android tablet buyers.

The Tab S9 FE was priced at $449/£449 for the base Wi-Fi-only model with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage, with the same specs FE+ version starting at £599/$599.
A similar pricing structure is expected for the Tab S10 FE series.
What specs and features will the Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 FE have?
While official details remain sparse, rumours and leaks give us a good idea of what to expect from the Galaxy Tab S10 FE.
Design
The Galaxy Tab S10 FE is likely to maintain the sleek and minimalist design language of its predecessors.

What’s new, however, is that it will likely support Samsung’s Book Cover Keyboard accessories, and according to leaker Anthony on X it may feature the new Galaxy AI button found on the Galaxy Tab S10+ and Tab S10 Ultra.
Display
Samsung’s FE tablets have traditionally used LCD panels rather than the AMOLED displays found in premium models.
As such, the Tab S10 FE is likely to feature a vibrant LCD screen, possibly in an 11-inch size, to fill the gap left by the flagship Tab S10 lineup, which only includes larger models.
Performance
According to GizmoChina’s report, speculations point to the Exynos 1580 chipset powering the Galaxy Tab S10 FE, a step up from the Exynos 1380 used in the Tab S9 FE series.
This should provide improved performance and power efficiency, with the latter potentially helping with battery life.
Leaker Anthony suggests it could be Exynos 2400e chipset, though this is not based on any concrete evidence.

The tablet is expected to offer configurations with 6/8GB of RAM and 128/256GB of storage, aligning with its predecessor.
Cameras
A notable upgrade for the Tab S10 FE series is the primary camera, which will (according to GalaxyClub) feature a 12Mp sensor, up from the 8Mp camera in the Tab S9 FE.
This should enhance photo and video quality, making it better suited for casual photography and video calls.
Battery & Charging
Details about battery capacity are currently unavailable, but Samsung is likely to equip the Tab S10 FE with a long-lasting battery, capable of supporting heavy usage.
Expect support for fast charging, although specifics remain unclear.

As a reminder, the Tab S9 FE featured an 8000mAh battery and 45W charging support, while the S9 FE+ has a 10,090mAh cell with the same 45W charging.
Software
The Galaxy Tab S10 FE will likely ship with Samsung’s One UI 7 skin over Android 15, offering a user-friendly interface and access to Samsung’s productivity features.
Judging by the Samsung website, US buyers will likely be able to enjoy a one-year free subscription to Goodnotes, enhancing the device’s appeal for note-taking and productivity.
It’s unclear at this stage whether Samsung will improve on the Tab S9 FE‘s commitment to four major OS updates and five years of security patches. For context, the Tab S10+ and S10 Ultra offer seven years of both.
This is all we currently know about the Galaxy Tab S10 FE series. In the meantime, be sure to check out all the latest on the Galaxy S25 series.
