samsung unveils Galaxy S24 FE amid stock concerns

Galaxy S24

Samsung has introduced the Galaxy S24 FE and Galaxy Tab S10 series, which have quickly gained popularity among consumers.

The Galaxy S24 FE, a budget-friendly alternative to the high-end Galaxy S24 Ultra, is already facing stock shortages in the USA. The unlocked version is out of stock, while carrier variants from Verizon, T-Mobile, AT&T, and US Cellular are still available.

The situation is slightly better in other markets, such as the UK, Germany, the Netherlands, and India, where the Galaxy S24 FE remains available for pre-order. The Galaxy Tab S10 series, Samsung’s first tablets designed specifically for artificial intelligence capabilities, is also experiencing limited availability in the USA. The 12GB + 256GB model is out of stock for both Verizon and T-Mobile variants, and the Wi-Fi model’s pre-order button is currently grayed out.

For the Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra, only the 12GB + 256GB Wi-Fi variant is available for pre-order, with the availability of the 512GB and 1TB variants unclear. Despite the stock issues in the USA, the Galaxy S24 FE and Galaxy Tab S10 series remain more readily available in other markets, such as the UK and Germany. The early success of these devices suggests strong consumer interest, although it also highlights potential supply chain challenges for Samsung.

The Galaxy Tab S10 series boasts significant performance upgrades compared to its predecessor, the Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra.

Samsung has expanded its third-party app ecosystem for the Galaxy Tab S10 series, providing access to leading apps like Goodnotes, LumaFusion, Noteshelf, Clip Studio Paint, PicsArt, and Sketchbook. These apps cater to a range of professional and creative needs, further enhancing the capabilities of the tablets.
