The Samsung Galaxy Tab logo until 2015

In 2014, the Galaxy Tab series was later split into four separate lines:

• the Galaxy Tab S series for high-end tablets,
• the Galaxy Tab Active series for mid-range rugged tablets,
• the Galaxy Tab A series of mid-range tablets (from 2015),
• the Galaxy Tab E series for entry-level tablets.

Further changes saw the A series repositioned to entry-level (after the discontinuation of the Tab E lineup) and the S series extending to mid-range (with the introduction of the FE and Lite models).

As of 2025^[update], the current lineup include the Galaxy Tab S (at mid-range to flagship level), the Galaxy Tab A (at entry level), and the Galaxy Tab Active (a mid-range rugged model). The Galaxy Tab S and Tab Active support the S Pen since Galaxy Tab S3.
