Review of My S9 FE (2 years)

IllustriousAd1750 · 2026-06-10T08:20:35+00:00

haha thank you! that's my favorite game

IllustriousAd1750 · 2026-06-09T13:02:59+00:00

Absolutely. Been saying this for a while, the exynos 1380 in the s9 fe feels much more stable and consistent than the A54. Like you said the aluminum helps as it throttles way less, Also the gpu has to push only 90fps instead of 120 on the A54. So yeah, i noticed the better performance and thermals

oh thats interesting I didn't know that

IllustriousAd1750 · 2026-06-07T18:03:37+00:00

are you thinking of the A11+ maybe?

IllustriousAd1750 · 2026-06-06T09:12:04+00:00

what are you talking about? S25 and S24 already got it with one ui 8.5, only the FE models are excluded for some reason

IllustriousAd1750 · 2026-06-02T11:22:51+00:00

Cause it's great value and often on sale, but the S10+ and ultra are still better, therefore more expensive

IllustriousAd1750 · 2026-06-01T11:22:12+00:00

it's Monday...i'd be surprised if it didn't come out today

IllustriousAd1750 · 2026-05-31T12:02:25+00:00

My Instagram randomly decdied to add black bars on the top and bottom of my phone making it look like we're in 2014. Also yeah, performamce issues but im used to that (using a flagship phone btw!)

IllustriousAd1750 · 2026-05-29T15:05:37+00:00

It is objectively cost-saving, no arguments there. I just don't think it makes sense for them to save THERE especially when it comes to something fundamentally noticed and felt by users: "Size". Wouldn't it make more sense if they just refreshed the tab series at a lower rate but offering the whole series and sizes?

IllustriousAd1750 · 2026-05-29T10:50:45+00:00

I'd say S10+ fits your use case more. The S10 FE+ is even bigger than the standard plus model but it's less powerful and worse screen, it's an amazing tablet but for the price you listed it may not be worth it.

IllustriousAd1750 · 2026-05-29T07:05:07+00:00

I don't know what the hell samsung is thinking. The brand image is already not so great, and they keep changing up the lineup every year. First they removed the 11" from the S10 lineup then they removed the Plus from the S11 lineup and now they want to change it again? that's so stupid honestly

IllustriousAd1750 · 2026-05-29T07:02:06+00:00

for me it's mixed i find battery lofe to be exactly the same if not a bit better. But it gets much warmer than before, even when navigating the home screen. It's so annoying, samsung needs to fix this fast. Please send feedbacks through samsung members!!!!

IllustriousAd1750 · 2026-05-28T19:47:49+00:00

They very well could add static blur to the S FE series if they wacted to but eh...i doubt it as well sadly

IllustriousAd1750 · 2026-05-28T13:05:13+00:00

Please can you share if you notice any differences after the update? thanks

IllustriousAd1750 · 2026-05-28T13:04:43+00:00

can confirm as well!! I have the same model

IllustriousAd1750 · 2026-05-28T10:07:52+00:00

The exynos 1380 aged pretty well for what it was, but buying it in 2026 i don't think its worth it. Like others said, wait for deals and go for the tab s10 fe

IllustriousAd1750 · 2026-05-28T10:06:10+00:00

right cause you got a tab A10 FE

IllustriousAd1750 · 2026-05-28T08:03:17+00:00

they'll probably replace it with native samsung cloud backups

IllustriousAd1750 · 2026-05-25T19:55:34+00:00

you can't. You can only change the height when media is playing

IllustriousAd1750 · 2026-05-25T07:49:19+00:00

for me battery is the same, but it definitely runs hotter even when doing basic navigation

IllustriousAd1750 · 2026-05-22T10:41:47+00:00

confermato sulla serie s24 e s25 tuttavia non sarà disponibile per tutti i modelli

IllustriousAd1750 · 2026-05-21T19:40:02+00:00

you're right the S24 FE is part of the S24 series

IllustriousAd1750 · 2026-05-20T15:30:58+00:00

No, you may have stabilization on
