SEOUL, May 28 (Korea Bizwire) — Samsung Electronics Co. on Friday unveiled two new tablets as the South Korean tech giant eyes to boost sales amid the pandemic-induced stay-at-home trend.

The Galaxy Tab S7 FE is a budget model of its Galaxy Tab S7 and S7+ released last August. It comes with “fan favorite features” with a 12.4-inch screen at a cheaper price, according to Samsung.

With the S Pen stylus included in the box, the Galaxy Tab S7 FE boasts enhanced multitasking features, including a multi-active window that allows users to open up to three apps at once.

The latest S7 tablet, which will have 5G and LTE variants, packs a 10,090 mAh battery supporting 45W super fast charging.

The Galaxy Tab S7 FE comes in four colors: mystic black, mystic silver, mystic green and mystic pink.

Samsung said those who purchase one of the two new tablets will also get unlimited access to Samsung TV Plus, a streaming service offering more than 160 channels, for free in select markets.
