DON'T BUY THIS ONE!!! Tab S7 vs Tab S7+ vs Tab S7 FE

How do you choose between the Samsung Galaxy Tab S7, S7+ and the newest option Tab S7 FE? And even more important, do you know which one to avoid?
You know, the way Samsung is pricing these tablets doesn’t exactly make sense. We have 3 tablets, 2 different sizes and a mixed set of features - so how do you choose the best option for you? I think most people can eliminate one of these right off the bat, so let’s get started.

I have the tab s7+ (and have had it for the past 8 months) and can say full-heartedly that it's an amazing machine and you won't regret it. I had the m1 ipad pro (11" with 1tb and 16gb of ram) for a few weeks but ended up returning it because I still prefer the tab s7+ for its screen, multitasking and Samsung dex. I'm also 6'2 with large hands so keep that in mind reading my comment.

Since I'm a student and the S7 and S7+ start at 600€, I'm going with the S7 Fe. The big display is very useful when it comes to taking notes or other activities for school, in that case I don't need 120Hz or a AMOLED display. The S7 Fe isn't designed to be a high perfomance gaming tablet, rather it's a budget friendly tablet for people like me, which use their device to take notes or work.

I'm quite happy with my Tab S7, I bought it before going on a trip last summer. The battery life has been pretty phenomenal.

@@Abderrahmane_rochdi I would describe the display as "decent." Samsung makes some brilliant AMOLED panels that'll have nicer colors and deeper blacks. My Oneplus 8T has a display like that and it's superior to the one on the Tab S7, but not to the point that I'd rather watch a video on my phone. Personally I think they struck a good balance with this display. I have my color setting set to "natural."

It is always a bit strange with the pricing. - tab s7 fe goes for around 70000 ISK - tab s7 goes for around 105000 ISK - tab s7+ sells for 130000 ISK so the FE is the cheapest, by quite a margin with the 7+ costing nearly twice as much. I would recommend the FE for students, if they really MUST have a tablet anyway, the S7 for people that need a high powered mobile tablet .. and the s7+ version for those that .. for some reason .. want the best and do not care about the money (and they are likely to buy the next "best" thing a year later anyway) the FE is the most practical option that satisfies 99% of anyones needs. edit: mind you, if you buy Ebay or used/refurbished .. all can be thrown out of the window anyway. But in that case, i would probably look for the s7+, too .. as a used s7+ will still beat a new FE in terms of price.

I'm a professional musician, and I was looking for a tablet to read music on. I went with the S7 FE because I just needed the larger display and not really a fast processor to work on. Plus, the S Pen is really useful for marking up my scores, and I can send those "edited" scores to other people and they will get all the markings that I made on my score. Plus, here in Mexico, the S7 FE is at a lower price than both the S7 and S7+.

[@eteline_music]

The bump in price from the S7 to the S7+ is £160 (with cashback taken into consideration) in the UK. Your reviews of these tablets helped me realise that I couldn't justify the extra cost for what I wanted to use it for, so I went for the cheaper option.

[@michaelsMW2movies]

I have a choice between getting the S7 from CEX Grade A for £370, or buying a new S7FE from samsung store for £450, do I go Used? the S7 new is on sale for £519 but i cant justify spending over £500 on a tablet for what im wanting it for. Cex also offer 24month warranty, and returns no questions asked for the first 30day. Downside is it wont come with the pen so i would have to buy that separately.

[@RicardoGomez-mq5fb]

@@michaelsMW2movies I guess it depends on what you're going to use the tablet for. The S7 has a better processor and better display but also has a smaller screen - and in your case it will be cheaper but also won't come with an S Pen. The S7 FE has a bigger screen but a slightly slower processor and a display that is inferior to that of the S7 for a higher price, but its going to come brand new and you won't have to invest in the S Pen. I guess many will say go with the S7 even though it is used, but you might say the larger screen and the included S Pen on the S7 FE are far more important than anything else.

Oh wow, thanks for sharing this. I'm a digital artist, and I'd recently been making a slow and steady switch from my desk top and a wacom intuos tablet due to the lack of portability and no access to my favorite art app which is only on mobile. I started looking around, and originally I was pointed into the direction of the FE for awhile, but due to being a minimum wage, fast food worker who's lucky to see even 40 hours per paycheck, it was out of my reach, so I'm having to stick back. Now that I know that the FE is just a watered down version of the other 2 options, just packing the bigger size of screen, I will definitely consider just sticking back the money and getting an s7 plus.

[@CF542]

I bought the FE version in part based on your reviews of it so I was surprised it got eliminated but I still think it's the best value. I really like that the pen does not need to be charged the keyboard cover is very nice to use. Although the screen and audio don't seem as good when compared to the others, they are still more than adequate. I do agree that the price is still a bit high and had I waited probably could have picked it up for $100 less at some point.

Also, at the shop I brought it at, it came with a free Samsung Bluetooth keyboard lol. I use it for work, uni, drawing, note taking, reading, watching movies and vids etc. The battery lasts me 2 days if not more and sometimes I even forget I have a laptop lol. The only con for me is that the Spen doesn't come with extra nibs. I don't use it for gaming that much, only occasionally play some NFS, so I kinda don't need a better processor, and the one this tablet has is enough for smooth performance and multitasking. Also, the sound is just like honey to my ears.

[@KiLLJOY1056]

I bought the tab s7 FE for just a few very specific reasons over the Plus that doesn't include price. First, I always have a lot of trouble with Screen Burn In on Oled displays, and I prefer a larger screen, FE is larger than the regular s7 and won't burn in, so that was a no brainer for me. Second, the 60hz refresh and slightly lower res is going to save a lot of the battery life especially when watching movies and such when a high refresh is not needed, opposed to the s7 which has a Fixed 120hz refresh rate. so it should out perform on battery life in most departments. Third, I am an Artist and I notice that Samsungs Samoleds colors aren't true to print and true to life. So when I draw something, the print always looks vastly different on samoled, FE and s7 11" don't have this issue. LCD is also a much cheaper and easier replacement than Samoled. The downsides for me is not having a Flashlight, I don't use the camera much. But I do use the flashlight at work a lot, so I'll still have to pull put my phone for that. And you might miss the 2 extra speakers, but honestly without having something to compare the FE speakers to in person, you will be very happy with the sound. Last is the Processor, which runs apps perfectly fine, maybe just not as Super Fast as the other 2, but it works just fine for just about everything, just make sure to get the WiFi model. If you need lte then just run it off the Hotspot of your phone, you'll never need an LTE tablet again. FE is still most definitely a great buy in 2022 for $350usd.

[@vascoleonardo2368]

I am really considering to buy the s7 FE. I am a medical student and i take a lot of notes. I am afraid that the processor isnt good enough to be able to process my writing quickly enough.

I love the larger version with the OLED but the display of the Tab S7 screen is perfect even next to my Note 20 Ultra other than darker blacks on the ladder. I use my Tab S7 for gaming as it's way more portable and comfortable to hold while gaming, for note taking in class, and for general use like shopping online or watching videos. I didn't need the bigger version, but I can see why someone would if they watch more movies. For me I have a TV for that, my tab is essentially a extension of my phone and laptop,

Trying to decide between the S7 and S7+, but I just can't bring myself to trust any OLED screen with the elephant in the room which is eventual screen burn (especially after having seen some OLED's with screen burn). An OLED display may be good for some time with a better picture quality experience; but it's dependent on User screen 'on' time and static images used on a daily basis from various apps and so, but the eventual onset of screen deterioration vs LCD which can go on and on with day 1 quality, is what's making it very hard to decide.

[@woodydy1]

Nice video. I have the tab s7 for a couple months, mainly for my college stuff. And I hope Samsung would make something like iPad mini as I feel that the s7 is a bit heavy. Maybe I should switch to iPad mini.

[@TechGearTalk]

I think a competitor for the iPad Mini is a great idea!!!

[@eidorandom]

I think mainly because when retailers put them on the shelves, the S7 and S7 plus actually much more expensive ~ ( 690/ 750) while the S7 FE stands only at about 400ish, which is very reasonable

[@TheHummingBirdJaiye]

Scored a huge deal with the S7 with its keyboard. I wanted the plus, but could not find a single one less than 700.00. Glad I made my choice.

[@TechGearTalk]

Good job getting a great deal!!!

[@leospaceman2976]

Really interested in the FE to use with dex. These seem to cost less than the S7 now. How does the FE perform with Dex in mind with the lower tier CPU? Is the S7 much better and it may be worth paying a bit more? I don’t mind either screen size.

[@Kiumaen]

I have purchased the S7 FE for 450€ some weeks ago (500€ is current lower limit), studying the specs at different places before. My conclusion is that the best choice depends on the needs and the price point, last is significant here in Germany. S7(+) tabs are much more expensive, and beat the S7 FE in every aspect except size. This is OK. The only thing I miss is the fingerprint sensor. I mostly use it for reading, photos, videos and casual games. The display quality and audio is fine for me. Battery lasts much longer than a day for me. I recommend to check it out in a shop, if you are not sure. The video is entertaining, but I think that this video would not help me to find the best option, the emphasis on pricing (even if this is official for US location) is not appropriate for an international audience with other (street) prices. I would like to see videos even more putting an emphasis on needs, and not technical technical numbers, answering the question: What is enough for me? The FE was released much later than original S7s, I hope that OS support ends later according to Samsung's new support policy. Android 12 support is announced for 2022.

[@jeffreying4633]

Yes I agree. Loved the video but it missed the mark with recommendations sorta.

[@zeke3327]

Decided to go with the FE just for the larger screen and using it with a dock for Dex. Hope I'm not buying twice...

[@pampapillo1847]

Thanks for this useful video! I'm considering getting the S7 FE as I want the bigger screen because I'll mostly use it for note taking, but the S7+ is out of my price range. Do you think it would be better to get the 64 GB capacity and a micro SD card for more storage rather than pay more for the 128 GB, or will that lower performance?

[@alexarmani9209]

I think the justification of getting the 128GB isn't for the storage, but for the 6GB RAM. 64GB comes with 4GB RAM

[@dr.aaronsarwal5557]

The 64gb + 4gb should be just fine for your use case. S7 FE is an amazing tablet. No finger print sensor, no vibration motor and no AMOLED are the only hold backs. The 'BT' S Pen is more gimmick than useful. The basic S Pen is good for 99% tasks. Plus dex runs amazing

Is byuing an s7 still worth it in 2023???

[@christopherstrecker3136]

I am preparing for a master's course in university right now and as my employer offers me a laptop to keep on working in home office, i thought a tablet would do for me. I have an extra SIM card with 5G support, so the SIM card slot was important to me. The WiFi just doesn't reach all comfy places here. The S7 costs like 799€ and only offers LTE, the S7+ with 5G is like 1149€, the S7 FE is 649€ , but was often given away for free with new phone contracts around christmas and therefore you can still easily get it for 400-450€. And no matter how exactly the pen works, it's easy to scribble around on PDFs to take notes for work and university, also, 12.4 inches is nearly as large as the usually paper documents, so it is really nice to work with it. The storage is also not important if you can use Micro SD cards. Didn't take me long to choose.

[@georgehoeflinger1400]

I use the large form tablet to s7fe to perform music. The major factor is the weight. It is a pound lighter. Add a folio cover and the s7+ is over 3 pounds. That pound difference is significant at the end of holding it away from your body for up to 2+hours. The screen resolution is fine at the distance, and page turns are smooth and annotating with 6 s pen smooth.

[@DeputyNomNoms]

Just got the Tab S7 I ordered a week ago from Best Buy yesterday (they had the mystic white 128GB model for $380 open box when I bought it). It was a great price point that I just couldn't resist! I already did about 40% of my work on my Note 20 Ultra like drawing on PDFs and using Dex mode to review notes I've written from meetings. I decided that it's probably be better to replace my windows machine with an Android tablet. The fact you can boot into Dex without a second display being connected by using the keyboard cover is outstanding and makes it a true laptop replacement for me. I love how they included a track pad with they keyboard cover too. This is my first Galaxy Tablet since the Note Pro and I must say they've definitely stepped up their game. Also I would love to see a battery test as well, would find that interesting.

Why does the S7 FE costs so much in the US? I bought mine (64GB WiFi Model) from Malaysia for $380 with the Samsung Galaxy Book Cover Bundle. The S7 was extra $210 and the S7+ was extra $450 from the FE so it wasn't even comparable. At $380, the S7 FE was really unbeatable in terms of value. The closest competitor will be the iPad 9 and the Mi Pad 5 base variants but both of these would have cost me extra $50 if I buy with the Apple Pencil or the Xiaomi Pen. So the S7 FE was actually cheaper since it came bundled with the S-Pen and the Magnetic Cover.

An excellent review. Which of the mentioned tablets would you recommend for a student's needs, taking notes during lectures? The feel of writing is important. On offer are the Samsung Galaxy Tab S8+ for 825 euros, the Samsung Galaxy Tab S7+ for 719 euros, the Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 FE Wi-Fi (T733) Tablet, 4 GB/64 GB, silver + keyboard for 515 euros, or the Tablet SAMSUNG Galaxy Tab S7 FE without a keyboard for 449 euros. Maybe some other that would equally fulfill the purpose. I don't have specific graphic requirements, I don't plan on playing games, maybe running MS Word, Excel, PPT, but primarily it would be for taking notes during lectures, later transferring to PDF or Word, sending by email to colleagues, browsing the internet, watching KZbin. The most important thing is the feel and speed of writing with the stylus without a gap between the pen and the pen trail on the screen. I'm not limited to these tablets; a cheaper option is also welcome, as long as the screen is larger than 11 inches.

Would it be worth it to pay $150 more just to have a better processor, a slightly bigger screen, and the ability to connect it to a monitor + use as a secondary display? I can't find any new S7 and S7+ for under $500. While I know that my opinion is the most important at the end, I would like to know yours.

I love my S7+ but find I still prefer to use my iPad Pro with mini-LED screen. I wish the S7+ could get just a little bit brighter, but that’s the disadvantage of OLED. If you don’t want an iPad, I definitely recommend this tablet because of the screen, the best part of the tablet. If you watch a lot of KZbin, I suggest rooting the device and changing the config file for screen size so the KZbin app can show 4K versions (downscaled 4K looks sharper than upscaled 1440p, IMO). I’m not a fan of the keyboard, though. It fails to register keystrokes far too often, even if I intentionally try to hit the keys hard. If you watch a lot of HDR movies, this is the tablet to get with its awesome screen. I look forward to the rumored S8 Ultra, which is supposed to have a gigantic 14.6” OLED screen.
