Samsung has launched the Tab S10 FE and Tab S10 FE Plus, the latest in its midrange Android tablet line, but they cost $50 more than their predecessors. For the first time neither tablet has a direct equivalent in the standard Tab S10 series. The FE is the smallest of the company’s current tablet offerings, while the FE Plus comes in a new screen size that sits in-between the S10 Plus and the S10 Ultra, meaning all four of Samsung’s Tab S10 tablets now come in different sizes.
The S10 FE packs a 10.9-inch display, which has been Samsung’s “standard” tablet screen size for some time — but since the company never released a regular Tab S10, only Plus and Ultra models, it’s the first in that size for this series. The FE Plus offers a new 13.1-inch screen, larger than the 12.4-inch S10 Plus but smaller than the 14.6-inch Ultra.
Both tablets still use LCD panels, rather than OLED, and are limited to 90Hz refresh rates. Despite the larger size the Plus model doesn’t feature a bigger battery than its predecessor, though both are slightly slimmer than before instead. They’re also both limited to a single rear camera — the Plus losing its ultrawide — but this has been upgraded to a new 13-megapixel sensor. They’ll ship running Android 15, along with Samsung’s usual suite of AI features.
Both tablets are powered by the same Samsung Exynos 1580 chipset, an upgrade to the 1380 found in the Tab S9 FE models, and are offered with up to 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. IP68 dust and water-resistance returns, as does support for the S Pen stylus — which is included in the box, but is a simplified version without support for Bluetooth features. That was true of last year’s FE tablets too, so likely would have happened regardless of the controversial decision to strip Bluetooth from the Galaxy S25 Ultra’s S Pen earlier this year.
The Tab S10 FE and S10 FE Plus will both be available in the US from April 10th in gray, silver, or blue, though reservations are open now. The regular model starts at $499.99, with the Plus at $649.99 — both $50 increases on the previous generation. There’s also a 5G version of the smaller Tab S10 FE for $100 extra, though this only comes in gray.
