⭐ Buy Galaxy Tab S7 FE: geni.us/nVWMtwk (affiliate) ☕ WAS THIS VIDEO HELPFUL? BUY ME A COFFEE!! www.buymeacoffee.com/techgeartalk What's up everyone?! I hope this review of the Galaxy Tab S7 FE was helpful. Did I cover what you wanted to know? What else did you want to see or learn about? Would love to know what you think. Is this a tablet that you would use and why or why not?
Waiting for ipad 9 to come out. Despite of display size everything will be best in ipad 9 as compared to Samsung galaxy tab S7 FE . Also some other RUclipsrs are stating that the magnet is not powerful on S7 FE and it's body isn't of same material as that of S7 & S7+ . When we turn on the Dex mode on S7 FE it starts operating even with lower refresh rate than 60 ! You videos are always helpful to me , thanks for all the best information you provide . 😁
pls reply... I bought the s7fe tablet recently. as I am new to s pen I dropped it and its nip got broken.... is there any offical samsung nip available .. pls reply me
Hi! The s7+ isn't available anymore in my country, and I'm kind of forced to choose between the s7 and the s7 fe, what tab should i buy? :c help please
My FE 5G showed up today and I think it is an outstanding tablet. The audio is just awesome. I was kind of surprised with the 4 gb of ram when I first looked through the specs. It can run Stadia and my style of gaming with apps so that's cool. The pen is great. Call me old-fashioned but I was not expecting a target. Great video and thanks for the pen charging feature.
I just got the 128gb/6gb ram WiFi model for $469 at Best Buy. Super impressed with it. I bought the s7+ for retail price when it first came out and I’m not somebody who really uses a ton of different features so i just felt like I couldn’t justify keeping it for that price point which was like $800 at the time.
I got mine directly from the Samsung website for $349.99, thanks to the $250 trade-in discount via the Samsung Trade-in Program. Mine is the same 6GB/128GB Wi-Fi model that you mentioned. I came from the original 2020 version of the Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite, which I bought secondhand from eBay for less than $200.
I'm really happy I got to see this video. I've been going through review (written and video) for the Tab S7 FE to confirm that I should get this device as an upgrade to my Tab S5e, which is already showing it's age. And yes, I think I will buy the Tab S7FE next month when I've saved up enough money. I'm planning to use this as an alternative/replacement to my laptop and as a second-screen for my near constant online meetings. The good thing is that, in my country, the Tab S7 FE is offered as a bundled purchase with the S-Pen and the signature keyboard case cover although I can still buy the Tab S7+ keyboard cover since it also works with this model. I want to go for an S7+ ideally but the price would make it more expensive than my laptop which I just can't justify.
If u managed to get a good on this bundle then it’s worth it My country doesn’t bundle it with the keyboard case but instead with a smart trio 500 instead
@@animeearth smart trio package is a better deal for the average consumer. The keyboard is cumbersome to drag around if you don’t need it all the time, I rather get the case without the keyboard and a keyboard separate.
For me, the tft display isnt a problem, but in fact a minor improvement for not suffering from screen burning. My goal for this tablet is to use it for college without having to do anything to it. I've had amoled displays on my phones and most certainly they got the screen burning.
College was my thought as well. Especially since I don't use Microsoft office for college but rather Google docs. I think the only thing that is holding me back is how expensive they keyboards get. But if I can find a low price keyboard this would be great for college, following recipes while cooking (easy to clean) and movies on airplanes. Love my gaming laptop but this is easier to travel with
I’m also contemplating for university. What’s this screen burn you speak off? I can’t say I’ve ever had that issue with any phone I’ve used but they’ve all been apple phones
I was also gonna use it for college! I didn't wanna take my PC to college, so I like this alternative. Though, do you know if you can transfer video games over? I saw the guy play lots in the video but Im talking PS4 games. I don't wanna take my console but I still wanna play...
I want to thank you so much for your reviews. I have seen some reviews on this tablet that are very derogatory, that do say many good things about it. However, as you point out, a tablet like this will fill most people's needs. I just bought a 2020 ipad pro 11 inch that was an open box item - I got a great deal on it and it really meets my needs or exceeds most of my needs. I could not see paying way more money for the 2021 M1 ipad pro. I really enjoy your reviews and look forward to viewing your channel - thanks so much.

Picked up a 2020 iPad Pro 12.9 inch at Best Buy. It came slightly bent out of the box. I’m gonna return it tomorrow and get the tab s7 FE. I just need something larger to draw on and this will save some cash.
AWESOME VIDEO! Plain English and very detailed! You answered EVERY question that I had. Keep up the great work and thank you for your passion (yeah, it's obvious).
now I'm not disappointed I bought the wifi only model, thinking that I had 5g at the time which wasn't that important too me anyway. Much rather have the faster processer.
Oh that's so cool😊😊how do you like it? I just ordered it today got it for 261.00 shipped and it came with a free case, Samsung gave me 200.00 trade-in credit..I'm excited can't wait to get it 🥳🥳
Recently picked this up with 5G when I was upgrading cell phones. I have been using it as a dkestop replacement for spreadsheets, emails and teams meetings for work. Dex mode is pretty great and its good enough to run quite a few games on as well!
i see many people complaining about the tab s7 fe for me I want a mid range to high end tablet under 450 dollars I searched so much in Samsung tablets tab s7 was discounted and priced 499 dollars (was 650 dollars)but that is still too much for me I found the iPad 9 it was great the performance was great but it had the same old look and I had to purchase the apple pencil separately I found the tab s7 fe wifi version (snapdragon 778g) at 429 dollars I think its a pretty good deal 429 dollars for that big screen good performance excellent build quality good speakers I would watch videos play some games read books write lessons read pdfs use dex and browse the internet and social media
Nice content. Pleasant voice, & The acoustics are GREAT! I HATE hearing echos or hearing people sound like they are recording in a bathroom. Also, I'm not super techie, so glad you kept it in pretty simple terms. Good job!
I came into RUclips just to see how big it looked and how the keyboard worked but I couldn't help but stick around for the whole video, it was very informative and really helped me with my decision!! Thank you! The only question I do have is about covers, is the keyboard itself a cover or should I buy a cover for the tablet AND keyboard??
still rocking my tab s7+. still love it. now I hope the apps like autocad is the desktop version or can switch between desktop version & mobile version. that would be awesome.
For me personally the s7+ would definitely be my choice. But for my dad who watches youtube videos about planting and fixing things he doesn't even own. Probably going to go with the FE for him.
I went with the tab s7…the price for the se was the deal breaker for me..too expensive compared the s7..I picked up a brand new s7 WiFi 512gb for $550 from a previous seller I had purchased from.
And also I noticed tablets seem funner on your review than when I actually have in real life. In real life once I finally decide on a new tablet from the reviews, I just watch more reviews on them, So yes keep making these reviews they are very entertaining to a techie like mk
I bought this tablet a week ago and it just does the job. It came with a free samsung keyboard and I can play games on medium settings and I can also draw, surf the net, and watch videos just fine. I got the 5G edition and they have the 128GB storage with 6GB RAM version so I'm pretty much contented. It really depends on what you're going to use the tablet for so those are one of the things to consider before buying one. :) btw, thank you for the review! I watched your videos and it made me consider S7 FE and finally bought it :D
I have ordered the S7 FE 5G version, for several reasons.. 1) My mobile carrier only sells with sim versions 2) The 7+ is 1/3rd more expensive (almost twice as much) 3) While CPU is slower, as i read everywhere, you wont really notice unless loading time and someone next to you have better version tablet. 4) Tethering consumes fair battery from both tablet AND phone, no reason to suck both dry, a data sim cost roughly 10$ here :) 5) Having two 20GB sims (phone and tablet, with 13GB in whole EU) gives me 26GB outside country, 40GB inside :).
Thanks very informative. I'm buying my first Samsung Tablet FE after watching this I may exchange for a S7 or higher. We will see when it arrives thanks and Happy Holidays!
The S7 FE Wi-Fi is now on sale in Sweden. Plus I have a gift voucher so the total price is USD280. At that price point it's good value at 20% of the AMOLED models.
I own the Galaxy Tab S7 Plus, and I just want to mention something about size that is rarely mentioned in reviews. I'm older, so reading small text on those 10.x inch Android tablets was a challenge. The 10.x inch tablets are just a bit too small for reading e-textbooks, PDFs, or digital comics without pinching and zooming. This was especially annoying when trying to read e-textbooks while on a treadmill at the gym. I was on the verge of buying an iPad when the Tab S7 line was announced. The Tab S7 Plus has been perfect for reading small text despite my older eyes. No more pinching or zooming. If the Tab S7 FE is the same size, then it's probably just as good at displaying small text for older people.
I moved to a Tab S8 from a Tab A 8.4 and with progressive lens I found I needed to hold the Tab S8 out to read it in portrait mode. My eyes could scan the 8.4 but I need to move my head when reading the Tab S8 11". On a stand I still need to move my head to adjust my glasses for the Tab S8. My experience is that I could read easier on the 8.4.
Disappointing that the 5G model is so limited but since the 5G is baked into the CPU, I suppose that options were limited for Samsung with that option. Even with that the carriers charge too much per month for data only plans so I always end up using tethering from my 5G phone anyways.
I would appreciate it if you can make a video for comparison between the ipad 9 and this tab! I'm so confused which one I should buy because of the price point 😊
Thank you for the kind words, support and the suggestions. I don't see that feature in the settings (like I do on my S7+) But I can't get it to work on the S7+ even when it's ok for some reason. I have to look into that.
I use the S7. I dislike the white balance on the S7 display. It is quite poor. I didn't do sufficient research before my purchase. I guess the S7 is overhyped. I'll wait for the S8+. No more TFT LCDs either, I'll go strictly OLED/AMOLED as the LCD feels not good enough
Thank you for the informative video! Wanted to hear some opinions about this particular FE model. But my main question is, what is that green card that you swiped over that table??? I was very puzzled by it, thanks 😅
samsung should just come out with portable monitors so that any users could connect their phone with a larger screen instead of a tab solo experience. with digitizer, it's simply game changer. people would be more willing to spend on such monitors than having to maintain another tablet
Portable, wireless monitors are available; none by Samsung though. However, the ones that are out there do come in various sizes and are extremely thin and lightweight. 👍
Great review! Here is my dilema: Primarily I want to use a tablet on the Verizon 5G network hosting Zoom meetings, as a hotspot for my laptop and for web surfing. I can get a brand new S7FE for $304 trading in my Tab A, would this be a good choice? Or should I go with a hotspot and continue to use my Tab A for the meetings?
I like what you said. Buy nice or buy twice. Better to buy the tab s7 plus. You never know if the display is low or not bright enough. You don't know if the ram is good or not either. You don't know if the speaker is loud enough. If your not tech savvy or confused, might as well buy the better model. I brought a nice s range samsunh tablet 8 years ago. It's really good. I brought a range tablet 2 years ago and it's awful. The sound is rubbish and the screen is awful and lagging as well. Lost money on the a range :(
Excellent video as always. You are one of best tech reviewer out there May i know your opinion, it is worth upgrading from s6 lite to s7 FE? Any comparison video between both?
On paper it doesn’t look like it’s worth it at all unless you really want the bigger screen. Unless you need a second tablet right now, I’d wait for the s8 which has already been announced.
Would you recommend the s7 fe over the iPad mini? I bought the s7 fe a few days ago but I keep rethinking my decision and I only have until Jan 16 to return the s7 fe... Mind you I already have the iPad air4. I've just always liked having 2 options and not being stuck on any single operating system.... My struggle I guess if with the future updates and productivity aspects of the tablet.. thank you for your response as always wonderful videos
Hello, not sure if you noticed but in the video where you talked about the design, the tablet shown at 1:36 is actually the Tab S7+ as the FE does not have that charging strip. You can see the difference in the screenshot you took of Samsung's website just a few seconds later. As such I believe that the S Pen does not actually have any charging/bluetooth functionality and is similar to the ones found on the S6 Lite / older Galaxy Notes. Please correct me if I'm wrong, great and comprehensive review otherwise!
You are correct in that no charging is required - but that is in fact the S7 FE 5G which has that strip. The Wi-Fi only version (which I have now) does not have the strip. Hope that helps. Thank you for watching!
@@TechGearTalk Hmm, from what I'm looking at on Samsung's website, neither the Wi-Fi nor the 5G version has the strip. Thanks for the clarification regarding the charging!
Yes, it was very helpful. However, I have one question. Do the Tabs mentioned, have a keyboard on the screen?. I don't need to buy a keyboard as I will hardly use it. Thank you for the video's you make and for answering the above question ...
PSA: System Update 15. Update 15 hangs after 25%, then reboots back to previous. Verizon Software Upgrade Assistant that it suggests didn't work for me on Win10 or Win11; Downloading Upgrade Assistant from Samsung unable to find tablet. Factory Restore /w update fails again at 25%. Found similar posts with updates failing @ 25% on other Galaxy devices using OneUI dating as far back as 2 years ago, with users suggesting using Smart Switch on both a PC and the device. Everything else above failed for me on this unit, only way to get the update to install was through Smart Switch. FYI.
Man, those specs are confusing... Here in Brazil at the moment we have only the FE SM-T735N version, which is a 4G model (no 5G) with Snapdragon 750, with 6GB/128GB. There's no 4GB/64GB version, nor a 5G model, nor a wifi only model. The FE costs +- the equivalent of $500 US, the S7 11' costs +- $ 700 US and the S7+ costs +- $ 1.000 US...
Hi, which one to choose (s7fe 64gb wifi) or (ipad 9 wifi 64gb with Apple pencil 1). I am getting the above two items at exactly same price. Please tell which one will be better, I have seen lots of blogs and videos but not a single one is comparing these two. Your suggestion will be highly appreciable. - Regards from India
Hi! it really depends on how long and how heavy user u are. If you are planning to use the tablet for around 4 years the ipad 9 would be a better choice since it offers upto 6 years of updates (not sure), but if you are a student and would use the tablet as your notebook and laptop alternative then you should buy the s7fe because it offers an expandable storage and is more flexible to multitasking activities and it also offers a free note taking app.
Do you think this tablet would be ideal for university? My laptop is bulky, slow and doesn't always charge properly. Looking at getting this tablet instead of a new laptop. More portable and the S pen is a bonus for drawing graphs and taking hand written notes.
I know people that simply abandoned regular paper notebooks on college/university after the Tab S6 generation. About electronic notebooks, those same people still use at home sometimes, but it's mainly about tablet + PC right now.
If you don't use photo editing apps much and have both a MacBook air and a Galaxy smartphone, which would be the better route to go between ipad and galaxy tabs? I love both my phone and MacBook. Thanks for the advice!
I have the S6 lite 2022, would it be worth returning and spending $200 cad more for the larger screen size? Is it that big a difference watching RUclips, Netflix, etc?
Great review of the 3 S7 options. I have the S7 FE and want to get a mouse as I would rather use a mouse then the touch screen or pen. Can you recommend one?
On a side note, do you feel the Galaxy tab S7 FE is way better than what I have? The tab S six lite? I think it is because it actually has a Pogo pen magnet for a new keyboard where I have to use a Bluetooth keyboard which is a daunting task, although it was made for dimensions of the s6 lite. A favorite joke of mine is to say I built this tablet into a laptop all by myself from nothing.
The lower specs are kinda a bummer on the 5G version, but I effectively got one for free through Verizon on black Friday, so I guess I really can't complain... But why not just use the same processor!?... And maybe at least 6G of ram. Seems a little cheapskate.
I found tab s7 fe 4gb ram WiFi version deal in my country selling for 390 dollars 🤯🤯 I couldn't resist I came back and watched some reviews I don't know why so many people are complaining about it speciallt that the tab s7 sells here for 599 dollars which is a very big price difference for me I am on a budget. the 4gb ram I could deal with it by closing the background apps for the 60hz screen I have never tried a high refresh rate screen in my life anyway😀😅 For the performance the WiFi version (sd778g) scores 2800 multi core which is pretty enough maybe I will play demanding cloud games but I just want a 50-60 fps on low settings which is a thing the tab s7 fe can pretty much do. the s7 scores 3000 which is a tiny difference The s7 fe comes with the s pen included Samsung dex Samsung features Keyboard case and mouse support Good performance at least for me Good display colors not excellent For 390 dollars 😲

Nice content. Pleasant voice, & The acoustics are GREAT! I HATE hearing echos or hearing people sound like they are recording in a bathroom. Also, I'm not super techie, so glad you kept it in pretty simple terms. Good job!
I came into RUclips just to see how big it looked and how the keyboard worked but I couldn't help but stick around for the whole video, it was very informative and really helped me with my decision!! Thank you!
The only question I do have is about covers, is the keyboard itself a cover or should I buy a cover for the tablet AND keyboard??
Thanks for this video. Thinking of getting this as my next per monthly tablet.
I'm buying this! its a portable dual screen for laptops! and a qhd entertainment tablet in one!
still rocking my tab s7+. still love it. now I hope the apps like autocad is the desktop version or can switch between desktop version & mobile version. that would be awesome.
CONGRATS! Yes, that would be great!
Hi! I S7 fe is still in market here in the Phils. May I ask if it is ideal for editing videoa thru kinemaster or adobe?
Watching this on my new s7 fe, i love it ❤
For me personally the s7+ would definitely be my choice. But for my dad who watches youtube videos about planting and fixing things he doesn't even own. Probably going to go with the FE for him.
I went with the tab s7…the price for the se was the deal breaker for me..too expensive compared the s7..I picked up a brand new s7 WiFi 512gb for $550 from a previous seller I had purchased from.
@@suegreenlaw2604 what seller?

Happy To See You Anytime Love You Forever ♾ !!! ❤️🙏🏻
And also I noticed tablets seem funner on your review than when I actually have in real life. In real life once I finally decide on a new tablet from the reviews, I just watch more reviews on them, So yes keep making these reviews they are very entertaining to a techie like mk
I bought this tablet a week ago and it just does the job. It came with a free samsung keyboard and I can play games on medium settings and I can also draw, surf the net, and watch videos just fine. I got the 5G edition and they have the 128GB storage with 6GB RAM version so I'm pretty much contented. It really depends on what you're going to use the tablet for so those are one of the things to consider before buying one. :) btw, thank you for the review! I watched your videos and it made me consider S7 FE and finally bought it :D
From where you bought it, so it comes with free keyboard
What games can you play?? I wanna see if I can transfer my PS4 games to the tablet so that I don't have to bring the console with me
I love your videos I actually have tab s7 fe
I have ordered the S7 FE 5G version, for several reasons..
1) My mobile carrier only sells with sim versions
2) The 7+ is 1/3rd more expensive (almost twice as much)
3) While CPU is slower, as i read everywhere, you wont really notice unless loading time and someone next to you have better version tablet.
4) Tethering consumes fair battery from both tablet AND phone, no reason to suck both dry, a data sim cost roughly 10$ here :)
5) Having two 20GB sims (phone and tablet, with 13GB in whole EU) gives me 26GB outside country, 40GB inside :).
Thanks very informative. I'm buying my first Samsung Tablet FE after watching this I may exchange for a S7 or higher. We will see when it arrives thanks and Happy Holidays!
Great video once again! Kudos for the info that we get! Can't help but wonder which one is the King of the tablets--ipad pro vs s7+ vs matepad pro.
Thank you! I wish I could get a Matepad Pro here...
@@TechGearTalk That would be really great!!! Crossing my fingers for that cause your content is top-notch. Hope you get your hands on it!!!
I was going for this model before your video. Might go for the s7. Thanks
The S7 FE Wi-Fi is now on sale in Sweden. Plus I have a gift voucher so the total price is USD280. At that price point it's good value at 20% of the AMOLED models.
I just got this tablet for $99 with a promotion Samsung has going on when buying the Galaxy Fold 3! A freaking steal!
For the price of the Galaxy Fold, they should give you the S7 (regular, not FE) for free!
The 5g model does come with 6gb ram and 128gb internal storage. At least in the UK, as I have just purchased one.
How is the processing on it
I bought these few days ago for my grand children
Sam A8 4/64 LTE with 4 speakers
Sam S7 FE 4/64 LTE with only 2 speakers
I'm really happy I saw this! Cause I'm helping my mother to save up for one for my B-Day! Tysm :D
And also the colour is mystic silver.
I own the Galaxy Tab S7 Plus, and I just want to mention something about size that is rarely mentioned in reviews.
I'm older, so reading small text on those 10.x inch Android tablets was a challenge. The 10.x inch tablets are just a bit too small for reading e-textbooks, PDFs, or digital comics without pinching and zooming. This was especially annoying when trying to read e-textbooks while on a treadmill at the gym.
I was on the verge of buying an iPad when the Tab S7 line was announced.
The Tab S7 Plus has been perfect for reading small text despite my older eyes. No more pinching or zooming. If the Tab S7 FE is the same size, then it's probably just as good at displaying small text for older people.
Don't they have the same size?
Your S7 plus uses PWM so basically you are hurting your eyes and brain with it.
@Sky Gardener FE an Plus have same size but different resolution and thus also different DPI. FE has slightly lower res than the Plus.
I suggest you activate the reading mode (reduces eye strain) and increase the display size when reading.
I moved to a Tab S8 from a Tab A 8.4 and with progressive lens I found I needed to hold the Tab S8 out to read it in portrait mode. My eyes could scan the 8.4 but I need to move my head when reading the Tab S8 11". On a stand I still need to move my head to adjust my glasses for the Tab S8. My experience is that I could read easier on the 8.4.
Disappointing that the 5G model is so limited but since the 5G is baked into the CPU, I suppose that options were limited for Samsung with that option. Even with that the carriers charge too much per month for data only plans so I always end up using tethering from my 5G phone anyways.
I really appreciate you contributing this perspective. I also tether pretty much every time I need to connect and don't have Wi-Fi.
I would appreciate it if you can make a video for comparison between the ipad 9 and this tab! I'm so confused which one I should buy because of the price point 😊
Soon
@@TechGearTalk nice! Cant wait for it. I'm going to buy the tab only after watching your views on it 😊😊
Thank you!! Your review was very helpful
Thanks for all your video's about de FE !
You’re very welcome. I hope they are helpful!
I'm considering buying this via T-Mobile on sale for $70 and $1.20 a month over two years.
Gracias por el vídeo, muy bien explicado! 👌🏻👌🏻
Your cameras videos are the best!
Make a Budget Camera (Full Frame) Mirrorless Camera
Thanks
I now know what I'm buying my daughter for Christmas thanks so much for this video
So glad it was helpful.
Ipad 9 or Tab S7 FE, Which tablets are better to use for note-taking and multitasking? Help me~
T-mobile has the fe for 50% right now! I got mine!
This video was brilliant! Which is not a surprise. Thanks to you now I know more about these tablets (im an Apple guy) Cheers from Italy
Tmobile has this on sale for $70 with added tablet line which normally is $20 a month
Great information. I have a S7+. I would recommend finding a S7 on sale. Does the S7 FE have feedback when you type using the display keyboard?
Thank you for the kind words, support and the suggestions. I don't see that feature in the settings (like I do on my S7+) But I can't get it to work on the S7+ even when it's ok for some reason. I have to look into that.
I use the S7. I dislike the white balance on the S7 display. It is quite poor. I didn't do sufficient research before my purchase. I guess the S7 is overhyped. I'll wait for the S8+. No more TFT LCDs either, I'll go strictly OLED/AMOLED as the LCD feels not good enough
why are you recommending s7 over s7+? can u elaborate?
Thank you for the informative video! Wanted to hear some opinions about this particular FE model. But my main question is, what is that green card that you swiped over that table??? I was very puzzled by it, thanks 😅
samsung should just come out with portable monitors so that any users could connect their phone with a larger screen instead of a tab solo experience. with digitizer, it's simply game changer. people would be more willing to spend on such monitors than having to maintain another tablet
Portable, wireless monitors are available; none by Samsung though.
However, the ones that are out there do come in various sizes and are extremely thin and lightweight. 👍
Thanks for recommendation and explains about samsung tablet.
Great review! Here is my dilema: Primarily I want to use a tablet on the Verizon 5G network hosting Zoom meetings, as a hotspot for my laptop and for web surfing. I can get a brand new S7FE for $304 trading in my Tab A, would this be a good choice? Or should I go with a hotspot and continue to use my Tab A for the meetings?
Its best to get the tablet but you already decided I guess.
Just got mine, i was choosing between this and the ipad 9, no regrets this thing's a beast
I just got iPad 10 gen but then I want to exchange this with Samsung tab
I was in a hurry to buy
The Tab all the way. iPad 9 is a big iPhone.
I like what you said. Buy nice or buy twice. Better to buy the tab s7 plus. You never know if the display is low or not bright enough. You don't know if the ram is good or not either. You don't know if the speaker is loud enough. If your not tech savvy or confused, might as well buy the better model. I brought a nice s range samsunh tablet 8 years ago. It's really good. I brought a range tablet 2 years ago and it's awful. The sound is rubbish and the screen is awful and lagging as well. Lost money on the a range :(
We know pretty much what a 750 Snapdragon + 6GB can do, man... No need to buy a much more expensive device if you don't need it.
Excellent video as always. You are one of best tech reviewer out there
May i know your opinion, it is worth upgrading from s6 lite to s7 FE?
Any comparison video between both?
On paper it doesn’t look like it’s worth it at all unless you really want the bigger screen. Unless you need a second tablet right now, I’d wait for the s8 which has already been announced.
Would you recommend the s7 fe over the iPad mini? I bought the s7 fe a few days ago but I keep rethinking my decision and I only have until Jan 16 to return the s7 fe... Mind you I already have the iPad air4. I've just always liked having 2 options and not being stuck on any single operating system.... My struggle I guess if with the future updates and productivity aspects of the tablet.. thank you for your response as always wonderful videos
Hello, not sure if you noticed but in the video where you talked about the design, the tablet shown at 1:36 is actually the Tab S7+ as the FE does not have that charging strip. You can see the difference in the screenshot you took of Samsung's website just a few seconds later. As such I believe that the S Pen does not actually have any charging/bluetooth functionality and is similar to the ones found on the S6 Lite / older Galaxy Notes. Please correct me if I'm wrong, great and comprehensive review otherwise!
You are correct in that no charging is required - but that is in fact the S7 FE 5G which has that strip. The Wi-Fi only version (which I have now) does not have the strip. Hope that helps. Thank you for watching!
@@TechGearTalk Hmm, from what I'm looking at on Samsung's website, neither the Wi-Fi nor the 5G version has the strip. Thanks for the clarification regarding the charging!
Yes, it was very helpful. However, I have one question. Do the Tabs mentioned, have a keyboard on the screen?. I don't need to buy a keyboard as I will hardly use it. Thank you for the video's you make and for answering the above question ...
Thanks Martin - and yes, there is a keyboard on the display when you need it. Hope that helps.
PSA: System Update 15. Update 15 hangs after 25%, then reboots back to previous. Verizon Software Upgrade Assistant that it suggests didn't work for me on Win10 or Win11; Downloading Upgrade Assistant from Samsung unable to find tablet. Factory Restore /w update fails again at 25%. Found similar posts with updates failing @ 25% on other Galaxy devices using OneUI dating as far back as 2 years ago, with users suggesting using Smart Switch on both a PC and the device. Everything else above failed for me on this unit, only way to get the update to install was through Smart Switch. FYI.
Great review, one of the best!
I appreciate the kind words. Thank you for being part of the channel!
Man, those specs are confusing... Here in Brazil at the moment we have only the FE SM-T735N version, which is a 4G model (no 5G) with Snapdragon 750, with 6GB/128GB. There's no 4GB/64GB version, nor a 5G model, nor a wifi only model. The FE costs +- the equivalent of $500 US, the S7 11' costs +- $ 700 US and the S7+ costs +- $ 1.000 US...
Hi, which one to choose (s7fe 64gb wifi) or (ipad 9 wifi 64gb with Apple pencil 1).
I am getting the above two items at exactly same price.
Please tell which one will be better, I have seen lots of blogs and videos but not a single one is comparing these two.
Your suggestion will be highly appreciable.
- Regards from India
Hi! it really depends on how long and how heavy user u are. If you are planning to use the tablet for around 4 years the ipad 9 would be a better choice since it offers upto 6 years of updates (not sure), but if you are a student and would use the tablet as your notebook and laptop alternative then you should buy the s7fe because it offers an expandable storage and is more flexible to multitasking activities and it also offers a free note taking app.
Great informative video, thanks
Thanks for the review. Does GPS track you on the WiFi only models of these tablets or do you need the cellular/5G version?
Great review so to the point . For most people need why pay more this fe is all you need to watch RUclips a buy on Amazon
VERY Very helpful thank you so much
Do you think this tablet would be ideal for university? My laptop is bulky, slow and doesn't always charge properly.
Looking at getting this tablet instead of a new laptop. More portable and the S pen is a bonus for drawing graphs and taking hand written notes.
I know people that simply abandoned regular paper notebooks on college/university after the Tab S6 generation. About electronic notebooks, those same people still use at home sometimes, but it's mainly about tablet + PC right now.
May I suggest regardless of what you buy -get a power bar with 4 or 5 ports for carrying around. It will make you friends.
hi ! did you end up getting it ? im having similar thoughts rn :)
@@maria-vr7gg I've got the S7 FE!
@@Ariranhaa how do you like it so far?
Can you please make a specific review for the second screen feature ?
Hey nice review 👍💪
I have a question:
Can you Connect the tab s7 FE to an monitor via USB c to hdmi ?
Go to 7:08 he says that. Hahaha. Yes you can
Very informative video. Great work brother. Thanks for the share.
Thank you for the kind words and for being part of the channel!
Great video thanks
If you don't use photo editing apps much and have both a MacBook air and a Galaxy smartphone, which would be the better route to go between ipad and galaxy tabs? I love both my phone and MacBook. Thanks for the advice!
Nice review thanks!
Thanks for watching!
I have the S6 lite 2022, would it be worth returning and spending $200 cad more for the larger screen size? Is it that big a difference watching RUclips, Netflix, etc?
I love my FE edition from Costco. Comes with the Samsung keyboard.
Great review of the 3 S7 options. I have the S7 FE and want to get a mouse as I would rather use a mouse then the touch screen or pen. Can you recommend one?
Go for the Logitech MX Master 3S ..its magic along with this tablet 7fe
Can you please tell us what is that keyboard/case accessory you have on your FE? Thanks!
On a side note, do you feel the Galaxy tab S7 FE is way better than what I have? The tab S six lite? I think it is because it actually has a Pogo pen magnet for a new keyboard where I have to use a Bluetooth keyboard which is a daunting task, although it was made for dimensions of the s6 lite. A favorite joke of mine is to say I built this tablet into a laptop all by myself from nothing.
Great review! Subscribed!
So glad it was helpful! Thank you for being part of the channel!
The lower specs are kinda a bummer on the 5G version, but I effectively got one for free through Verizon on black Friday, so I guess I really can't complain... But why not just use the same processor!?... And maybe at least 6G of ram. Seems a little cheapskate.
I found tab s7 fe 4gb ram WiFi version deal in my country selling for 390 dollars 🤯🤯 I couldn't resist I came back and watched some reviews I don't know why so many people are complaining about it speciallt that the tab s7 sells here for 599 dollars which is a very big price difference for me I am on a budget. the 4gb ram I could deal with it by closing the background apps for the 60hz screen I have never tried a high refresh rate screen in my life anyway😀😅
For the performance the WiFi version (sd778g) scores 2800 multi core which is pretty enough maybe I will play demanding cloud games but I just want a 50-60 fps on low settings which is a thing the tab s7 fe can pretty much do. the s7 scores 3000 which is a tiny difference
The s7 fe
comes with the s pen included
Samsung dex
Samsung features
Keyboard case and mouse support
Good performance at least for me
Good display colors not excellent
For 390 dollars 😲
in my country it's super valued, same price as tab s7, or a gaming notebook with gtx 1050
Thanks for the review TGT!
Question... Is there a way to use a mouse with this jammy? Would a USB hub be required?
You can use a Bluetooth mouse, for for a usb mouse you would need still need a type c hub with type A ports
@@KevinKochatt yeah thanks
that's what I was thinking... Then you have to decide if you want all these peripherals to tote around and plug in and all that shit...
@@Cucumber_Jones yeaaa, personally I’d just get a case with a trackpad, I hate extra stuff lol
Or get a Type C mouse
