Unboxing the Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 FE, a more budgetfriendly Fan Edition of the pricey Sammy tablet, with a handson review of the gaming chops, plus multitasking and more. The Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 FE starts from £449 in the UK, so almost half price! Plus you get that S Pen stylus bundled in the box.

One of the major downgrades is the performance, with an Exynos chipset replacing that Snapdragon 8 Gen 2. Thankfully this doesn't impact the everyday experience much. You can still game on Genshin Impact on the Galaxy Tab S9 FE. However, you'll want to lower the graphics settings on this Fan Edition for a proper smooth frame rate.

The Samsung Tab S9 FE also scraps that gorgeous OLED screen, replacing it with a more basic IPS display. Grab the Plus model and it's even bigger. Contrast isn't as sharp and there's no HDR support, but it's still quite bright, poppy and sharp. However, this Galaxy tablet offers a slimmeddown version of DEX, and you'll still need to pay extra for that Book keyboard cover.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 FE can be yours right now and check out my review of the Tab S9 Ultra to see the opposite end of Sammy's tablet lineup!
