The 7 best Android tablets for students in 2022

Specs: Display: 12.4-inch, 2560×1600 display | Processor: Qualcomm SM7325 | Storage: 64GB, 128GB, 256GB | Memory: 4GB, 6GB, 8GB | Colors: Black, silver, green, pink | Cameras: 8MP rear, 5MP front camera | Weight: 1.34lb | Dimensions: 7.28 x 11.21 x 0.25 inches | Connections: USB-C | Battery:  10,090mAh

Samsung’s “FE” series of devices are designed with Samsung fans in mind. That is, the company takes the best features of its high-end devices, trims some of them down, and releases a more affordable product. The Galaxy S20 FE is a perfect example, and so too is the recently released Tab S7 FE. 

The Tab S7 FE has a large 12.4-inch display, a snappy processor, multiple storage and memory options and comes in multiple colors. There’s also a 5G version available if you want to use it while on the go. 

I’ve been testing the Tab S7 FE for a couple of weeks, and its performance has been great, as has the battery life. The only downsides I can find so far are that the display isn’t as nice as the S7 Plus, and the keyboard cover lacks a trackpad for a full laptop-like experience in DeX. That said, it does come with an S Pen still. 

Pros:

• More affordable than the S8 Plus
• Expandable storage
• Battery life

Cons:

• The display isn’t as clear as the S7 Plus
• No trackpad on the keyboard accessory
