Samsung has only surprised anybody by announcing a new tablet. The Galaxy Tab S5e has gone official today equally the thinnest Milky way tablet still. At 5.5mm, the Tab S5e is insanely thin for the kind of specs it packs within. It's as well the get-go Samsung tablet with Bixby 2.0 and Android 9 Pie with One UI out of the box.

The forepart of the Tab S5e is adorned by a 10.5-inch Super AMOLED brandish of WQXGA (2560×1600) resolution and xvi:10 aspect ratio, same as the Galaxy Tab S4. The sleek trunk holds a 7,040 mAh battery that is good for up to 14.5 hours of usage on a single charge. Aye, the battery on the S5e is smaller than the S4's, simply given the difference in thickness between the two (the Tab S4 was vii.1mm), it'southward not something one can mutter about.

The Galaxy Tab S5e is besides similar to the Galaxy Tab S4 and S3 on the audio front. It gets four speakers tuned by AKG and Dolby Atmos support, and the sound output can arrange to how you lot're belongings the tablet. The tablet also comes with a fingerprint sensor embedded into the ability push, but it misses out on an iris sensor. That shouldn't be surprising, as the iris sensor won't be available on the Galaxy S10, either.

Under the hood, Samsung says there'southward an octa-cadre processor with ii cores clocked at two.2GHz and half-dozen cores clocked at 1.7GHz.

The Tab S5e'southward accessories include a Book Cover Keyboard, a charging dock, a slim cover, and a Book cover. There doesn't seem to be an S Pen this fourth dimension around, which may be why Samsung has tacked on the 'eastward' to the tablet'southward name.

In fact, that 'e' in the name suggests we could run into Samsung release a Galaxy Tab S5 and Galaxy Tab S5+ later on on, similar to the Galaxy S10. It's pure speculation on our part, but it's certainly plausible. For at present, though, information technology's just the Tab S5e, and its release is gear up for former after March.
