I like the portability of a tablet versus a heavy, bulkier laptop. I enjoy working on the iPad Air daily, so I’ve looked forward to testing the new Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 FE+
The Galaxy Tab S10 FE+ has an Exynos 1580 chip, which Samsung says makes the tablet about 32% faster than its predecessor, the Tab S9 FE+. This isn’t a high-end processor, but it’s great for everyday tasks and is one of Samsung’s compromises with its FE devices.
The battery life is reliably good, especially when you use this tablet for entertainment. The S10 FE+ has a large, 10,090 mAh battery, and its efficient performance ensures it lasts a full workday. For comparison, the longest battery life I’ve tested on a tablet thus far is the Honor Pad V9, which has a 10,100 mAh battery. The 2024 iPad Pro has an 8,160 mAh battery, and the 13-inch iPad Air M3 has a 9.705 mAh battery, for reference.

I like that Samsung’s newer tablets are IP68-rated for water and dust resistance. This may not sound like a big deal, but as someone who’s gotten used to carrying my tablet around everywhere with me, it is. I’ve often had to dry my tablet after an accidental water spill or unknowingly putting it on a wet surface.
The panic that courses through me as I frantically dry my tablet each time it touches moisture is only understood by anyone who has lost a device to water or had smartphones over ten years ago (RIP to my BlackBerry Bold, on both accounts).

The Tab S10 FE+ is slim and very lightweight. It’s also waterproof and comes with an S Pen, making it better suited for portability than other comparable options. You can take this tablet with you almost anywhere and use it for entertainment, notetaking, or work without second thoughts about the elements you’ll expose it to.
