Samsung introduces the New Galaxy Tab S5e

Today, Samsung introduces a new product, the Samsung Galaxy Tab S5e. This tablet weighs only 400 grams and “packs a punch”.

The new Galaxy Tab S5e is very slim. At just 5.5mm thin, I wonder if it will deform if I squeeze it into a packed bag. However, looking at the video, it really looks very nice.

It has an external MicroSD card slot which can increase the storage with another 512 GB.

One of the highlights must be the Bixby 2.0. It is the first tablet with the Bixby 2.0. And with POGO connectors, you can add accessories onto it. Unfortunately, they are sold separately. Have not tried out the tablet yet. However, you can watch my favorites YouTubers, SuperSaf and Peter McKinnon together with Hassan Anrum showing you the features of the Samsung Galaxy Tab S5e


The Tab S5e will be launching in Singapore from Q2 2019 in Black and Gold. No mention of the pricing. Check out the Press Release for more details.
