Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 FE with MediaTek SoC, Android 13 visits Geekbench
Samsung has decided that it will not launch the Galaxy S22 FE but it seems like the company will not compromise with the Fan Edition of its Galaxy Tab S8. Recently, Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 FE appeared on the Geekbench website, confirming its existence.
The Korean tech giant introduced the Galaxy Tab S8 series devices alongside the Galaxy S22 smartphone earlier this year. This lineup includes three models such as Tab S8, Tab S8+, and Tab S8 Ultra. Now a new tablet will join the sequence very soon.

The upcoming device has been in development for quite some time and the progress is slow for some reason. As spotted by GalaxyClub, Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 FE carries a model number SM-X506B and its Geekbench listing reveals some of its important features.

According to the information, the Galaxy Tab S8 FE will feature the MediaTek MT8791V chipset, which is also known as the Kompanio 900T chip. This processor packs two Cortex-A78 CPU cores, six energy-efficient Cortex-A55 cores, and a Mali-G68 graphics chip. In addition, the benchmark says that the tablet has 4GB of RAM.
The Geekbench listing further reveals that the device will run the latest Android 13-based One UI 5 software system. It’s worth mentioning that Samsung will roll out the stable One UI 5.0 in October, which suggets that the new tablet is still months away from its launch. It looks like the company will introduce this device in early 2023 as it does this year with the Galaxy S21 FE smartphone.
Furthermore, the forthcoming tablet runs the latest version of Android OS and sets benchmark scores that are better than its predecessor Galaxy Tab S7 FE, which is powered by the Snapdragon 750G. In this regard, this tablet fits perfectly into the concept of the Galaxy Tab S8’s ‘FE’ or ‘Lite’ version.
Samsung is reportedly working on the development of the Galaxy S24 FE. Earlier this year, the company released the Galaxy S24 flagships, which are selling well globally. Now, the company has started work on its next budget flagship, with a release expected later this year.
GalaxyClub reports that Samsung is developing the Galaxy S24 FE with the R12 codename. The codename aligns with Samsung’s previous releases as the S20 FE was codenamed R8, the S21 FE was R9, the S23 FE was R11, and the R11 (S22 FE) was in development but hasn’t been released.
It was reported that Samsung might launch the S24 FE in the summer. As the development starts late, the release may be pushed to later this year, as testing and production aren’t finalized yet. The latest report also has no other details than the device’s codename.
Galaxy S23 FE has the hardware specs of the S22 series, however, the S24 FE might bring the latest. If it happens, we might see a price hike in the next budget flagship. New Galaxy AI features are also expected to debut with the S24 FE, before the S25 series launch next year.
Samsung is also working on an affordable Galaxy Z Fold 6, which would be the first Fan Edition foldable. Judging from the 2023 release strategy, it’s expected that the Galaxy S24 FE might launch alongside the Galaxy Z Fold FE, new FE tablets.

The US variant of Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 will be equipped with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor. There were reports that Samsung may expand the Exynos chipset to its foldable lineup, which doesn’t seem to be happening, at least in the United States.
Recently, Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 US variant was spotted on Geekbench with Snapdragon chip. It isn’t surprising as the company is following its conventional chipset strategy. We expect that it will be the same chipset used in the Galaxy S24 Ultra, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 for Galaxy.
The Flip 6 smartphone scored 15084 points on Geekbench’s GPU test. Due to its foldable form factor, the device may miss a Galaxy S24-like larger cooling technology. Still, its impressive 15000+ points in the GPU test indicates that Samsung has greatly optimized the software.
The company still has three months remaining in the launch event. More performance improvements will likely be achieved before the Unpacked. The South Korean tech giant will likely unveil the next-gen foldable phones in mid-July.
This year, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra would join the standard Galaxy Z Fold 6 and the Galaxy Z Flip 6. In addition, an affordable variant of Fan Edition branding is also in development. However, the cheaper foldable would miss some pro-grade specs to maintain the price.
