Samsung quietly announced the Galaxy Tab S5e just before MWC 2019. Here we compare it to the existing, expensive Galaxy Tab S4 to see how they differ and which of the Android tablets is best for you to buy
Samsung has struggled to compete with the might of the iPad to say the least when it comes to tablet sales. The Galaxy Tab S5e was quietly announced late on a February Friday afternoon via a press release to no fanfare — a marker of how Android tablets are compared to Apple’s iPads in 2019.
But for a certain niche and use case, Android tablets can be preferable, particularly if you use an Android phone. Here, we compare the newer Galaxy Tab S5e to the older Galaxy Tab S4 to see what the differences are and which of the two is best for you.
At the time of writing the Tab S5e has no price confirmed but given its ‘e’ branding it looks to be a Lite version of the S5. Odd then that no S5 has been announced. Branding be damned, eh.
Samsung said the tablet will launch ‘at a unique price point’, which means nothing aside from hinting it should be cheaper than the Tab S4.
