Samsung’s Galaxy Tab S10 FE lands in South Africa from R12,000

According to Samsung Galaxy, the company announced its Galaxy Tab S10 FE lineup at the beginning of last month with little local fanfare. That was expected, since South Africa wasn’t on the initial launch list. That has changed, with the new lot of ‘affordable’ Android tablets making landfall here at last.

And pricing isn’t particularly ridiculous either. We expected them to match the Galaxy Tab S9 FE in terms of pricing. Samsung, somehow, is launching the new range for less than the expected R13000 starting price.

Part of this might be limited launch pricing, which also sees buyers snagging either a set of the Galaxy Buds 3 or a Smart Book Cover at no extra cost. The Galaxy Tab S10 FE (Wi-Fi, 8GB/128GB) starts at R12,000, with the 5G version costing R13,000. The Tab S10 FE+ models will run customers either R15,000 (Wi-Fi) or R16,000 (5G). Even the higher-end pricing falls below Stuff‘s original R17,000 guesstimate.

Samsung’s latest tablets are packed with AI-driven tools, including Circle to Search, improved handwriting recognition, and advanced mathematics support in Samsung Notes. The devices also feature enhanced image modification capabilities, making creative tasks more intuitive and efficient.

For users opting for the Smart Book Cover, a dedicated Galaxy AI key on the keyboard provides quick access to Samsung’s AI assistant. This integration allows seamless interaction with AI functions, further enhancing productivity and user experience.
