Samsung Electronics Canada today announced the latest FE Series addition to the Samsung Galaxy ecosystem — the new Samsung Galaxy S23 FE, Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 FE, Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 FE+, and Samsung Galaxy Buds FE. Known for their iconic and durable designs, advanced performance, epic camera and audio capabilities, the latest FE devices from Samsung are designed to impress. For those who want to experience flagship Galaxy innovation for the first time, the newest FE devices provide an ideal entry point.
“Our new FE devices are packed with crowd-pleasing premium capabilities that, on their own or as part of a connected ecosystem, let Galaxy users maximize their creativity and productivity.” said TM Roh, President and Head of Mobile eXperience Business at Samsung Electronics.
Galaxy S23 FE stays true to the iconic S Series design with its new floating camera and premium finish, protected with IP68[1] water and dust resistance for asleek display. Plus, it features recycled materials, which is part of Samsung’s efforts to become more eco-conscious. Offered in new, vibrant colours including Mint, Cream, Graphite, and Purple, Galaxy S23 FE allows users to select the device that best fits their style.
Everyday moments come to life on Galaxy S23 FE with pro-grade camera features to help you capture amazing photos and videos. See sharp details with a 50MP high-resolution lens and 3X optical zoom. After dark, Nightography on Galaxy S23 FE lets you take clear selfies and portraits in lifelike colours. With advanced video digital image stabilization (VDIS), you can take steady shots on-the-go using the rear camera with the optical image stabilizer (OIS).
When it comes to creating shareable content, Galaxy S23 FE provides editing studio experiences on the go. In Pro Mode, controls for shutter speed, aperture, ISO, and more can be manually adjusted to your preferences. Capture customized shots with the Camera Assistant app[2] and choose from automated features for a customized shooting experience.
The long-lasting[3] 4,500mAh battery adjusts to conserve energy, charging up to 50 percent in just 30 minutes with a 25W Adapter[4]. All this power comes to life on a bright, super-smooth 6.4-inch[5] Dynamic AMOLED 2X display. Based on your surroundings, Vision Booster technology on Galaxy S23 FE automatically detects bright lighting conditions to help maintain a vivid screen.
Whenever inspiration strikes, Galaxy Tab S9 FE and S9 FE+ deliver entertainment, expressive creativity, and seamless connectivity. With two portable and powerful devices to choose from, even more users can experience the versatility of the Galaxy Tab S Series. Digital creators, entrepreneurs, busy students, artists, gamers, and more can explore their passions and get work done with improved device speed and performance[7] compared to the previous FE Series.
Responsive and immersive viewing and creating can happen at home, at work, on campus, or even at the park on the 10.9-inch[8] Galaxy Tab S9 FE and 12.4-inch Galaxy Tab S9 FE+[9] displays, as both models feature an automatic refresh rate that adapts up to 90Hz. Vision Booster enhances screen visibility in outdoor environments by optimizing colour and contrast, especially in dark areas of the screen. Just like the newest Galaxy Tab S9 Series, both the Galaxy Tab S9 FE and Galaxy Tab S9 FE+ received an IP68 rating[10], offering enhanced durability for peace of mind on the go. Plus, Galaxy Tab S9 FE+ delivers a long-lasting battery with up to 20 hours[11] of video playback on a single charge.
Ideas and notes are also easy to capture with Galaxy’s included in-box, IP68-rated S Pen[12]. Like the Galaxy Tab S9 Series, the Galaxy Tab S9 FE and Galaxy Tab S9 FE+ include a wide variety of creative tools and apps, including fan-favourites like Goodnotes[13], LumaFusion[14], Clip Studio Paint[15], and more. Easily keep class notes, sketches, videos, and more with up to 256GB[16] of storage[17], plus the option to upgrade to 1TB with a microSD card[18].
Galaxy Buds FE brings epic sound experiences from Samsung to users. Its powerful bass offers deep and rich sound, and Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) and Ambient Sound enable you to hear more of what you love and less of what you don’t. Also, automatic personalized beamforming, along with AI-powered Deep Neural Network (DNN), separates your voice from unwanted background noise for clearer calls[19].
Boasting the longest battery life in the Buds Series, Galaxy Buds FE provide up to 8.5 hours of playback with earbuds, and total up to 30 hours including the charging case[20]. Even when using ANC, users can get up to 6 hours of playback with earbuds and total up to 21 hours including the case[21]. Inspired by the iconic design of the Series, Galaxy Buds FE are engineered to be comfortable enough to wear for a long time, with a customizable fit thanks to three different sizes of ear tips and two different sizes for wingtips.
With new FE devices, you can experience the full power of the connected Galaxy ecosystem. Productivity can be intuitive with Multi Control[22], which enables users to drag and drop content easily between multiple Galaxy devices[23]. Copy and paste or drag and drop between smartphone and tablet. When creativity strikes, simply transfer videos or images from smartphone to tablet with Quick Share[24], for easier editing.
When it is time for immersive entertainment, Galaxy Buds FE are great companions. Auto Switch[25] intelligently switches sound between your smartphone, tablet, and even watch and TV[26] – based on your usage.
Galaxy S23 FE and the Galaxy Tab S9 FE Series are also backed by Samsung Knox protection, which provides added security to Galaxy devices.
Galaxy S23 FE features a variety of recycled materials[27] found in both internal and external device components[28], including pre-consumer recycled aluminum and glass, and post-consumer recycled plastic sourced from discarded fishing nets, water barrels, and PET bottles.
The Galaxy Tab S9 FE Series is also made of recycled materials. Select internal and external components[29] use pre-consumer recycled aluminum and post-consumer recycled plastics.
The new Galaxy S23 FE and Galaxy Tab S9 FE Series are also designed to last with four generations of OS upgrades and five years of security updates.
Galaxy Buds FE also incorporate post-consumer recycled plastics sourced from discarded fishing nets and water barrels in its product design[30].
