EE unveils huge £150 saving on new Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 FE in 'lowest price to date'
Customers say it is a "perfect" device that is a "good build and quality" and does "everything they need it to do" Whether you're online shopping, browsing the internet for study or work, or simply chatting on instant messenger with friends while enjoying a drink on a Friday night, tablets are a great, convenient way to stay connected. There have been so many iterations of the tablet in recent years that it can be hard knowing which one will do the job, and what ones will be a waste of money. After all, they aren't cheap, and your hard-earned cash is sacred. This week, however, EE has unveiled a huge £150 saving on the Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 FE that might help you make your decision. The tech giant claims the Samsung device's price is the "lowest seen on the UK market to date". The Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 FE is the latest EE Tech Drop - a new money-saving deal for millions in the UK - and is available for only £349 for a limited period – providing a saving of £150. You have to be fast, though - the deal will be available on a first come first serve basis on Tuesday, May 20. Available only through the EE App, a limited amount of Galaxy Tab S10 FE's will be offered for just £349 (RRP £499), marking its lowest UK price to date and offering customers an impressive £150 saving. Launched earlier this year, the new Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 FE key features include Circle to Search with Google to help you find missing items quickly, pre-loaded creative apps like Clip Studio Paint and Goodnotes, plus the S Pen for a pen-to-paper feel for the imaginative among us who like to scribble their thoughts and ideas down. The powerful Exynos 1580 processor makes for smoother streaming, browsing, and gaming, while the tablet's thin and light design means it's ultra-portable, and IP68 dust and water resistance protects against spills and splashes. What's more, up to 2TB microSD card expansion gives you more storage for family photos, videos and important files. If you want to shop around before committing, the Samsung website offers the device at its retail price of £499.00, although this is down from its previous price of £599, making for a saving of £100. Alternatively, Amazon has the product down nearly 20 per cent at £499 on its site. There are no reviews on the EE website as of yet, but on Amazon, it has earned a stellar 4.6 out of 5 rating. One satisfied customer wrote: "I'm very pleased with this tablet. It does everything I need it to, and much more." Another gushed: "Love this tablet, to me it's perfect." A third agreed: "Good build and quality. Very happy especially having the Samsung keyboard." Another was taken with the device but did have a small complaint. "I purchased to replace an older model for my gaming. Plays games lovely. I'm happy with it. "Only niggle, I really don't like a lot of the software installed on it, I'd rather it came with nothing except play store/ chrome, and then you download what you want." EE Tech Drops is a monthly initiative that sees the EE Tech Store offer a huge saving on a limited amount of stock of the hottest tech. The tech can only be purchased via the EE App - and is on a first-come-first-serve basis. Existing EE mobile and home broadband customers will be first to know about the new offers, receiving an alert up to 24 hours before they become available. But remember - the price cut is only available for a limited amount of time on a limited amount of stock. Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

Big ideas and bold drawings await artists at SCRF's Comics Corner
Organised by the Sharjah Book Authority from April 23 to May 4 at Expo Centre Sharjah, the Comics Corner will host 150 engaging activities, including hands-on workshops and interactive sessions. Designed for comic book fans, young creatives, and curious families, the programme offers everything from manga drawing and digital storytelling to animation, 3D design, and more. Workshops to develop skills and spark creativity One of the festival's most eye-catching workshops, 'Thread Art', invites young creators to turn simple threads into bold works of art, drawing inspiration from the dynamic visuals of pop art and comic storytelling. In 'Manga Drawing Techniques', kids will dive into the expressive world of Japanese comics, learning how to sketch characters, shape emotions, and plan their panels. Over in 'Writing Dialogue', they'll discover how to craft punchy, powerful lines that bring comic scenes to life. Led by Dora Wang, the workshop 'Creating One-Page Comics' guides children through the full process of comic creation, from shaping a story and designing scenes to laying out panels and placing dialogue bubbles just right. From paper petals to clay and wood, creativity takes many forms. In 'Comic-Inspired Flowers', children create colourful blooms inspired by their favourite characters. 'Wooden Comic Designs' lets them carve out bold masks, while 'Clay Creations' introduces the hands-on joy of shaping pottery. Hands-on fun continues with workshops that mix art and everyday objects. In 'Candle Design Inspired by Comic Characters', kids craft their quirky candles. 'Bag Design with Your Own Comic Art' turns plain tote bags into personal canvases, while 'Upcycling Metal Cans into Comic Art' transforms recyclables into striking creations. The 'Creating Digital Comics' workshop introduces young artists to the tools behind today's digital storytelling. Using apps like Procreate and Clip Studio Paint, they'll explore digital brushes, layers, and colouring techniques to bring their ideas to life on screen. Tech-savvy creators can explore the future of design in two exciting workshops. '3D Modelling in Blender' teaches the basics of building digital worlds and characters, while 'AI Character Design in 3D' shows how AI can turn a simple sketch into a fully formed 3D figure. For those with big ideas, 'Game Development from Scratch' turns imagination into interactive fun, teaching kids how to build their own playable games. Meanwhile, 'Starting Your Own Company' walks them through the first steps of launching a business, blending creativity with entrepreneurship. Celebrated singer and vocal coach Ali Al Alfy, known for blending classical and modern Arabic music, leads the 'Singing Workshop for Children'. Through fun, interactive exercises, he introduces young voices to vocal basics while encouraging self-expression, creativity, and confidence on stage. In the 'Children's Literature Translation' session, Hesham Fahmy explores how to adapt stories for young readers, focusing on cultural context and selecting the right language for every age group. In 'Introduction to Comics Creation', writer Karim Ahmed introduces children to the fundamentals of storytelling through pictures, guiding them through character design, visual pacing and layout planning. Mohamed Esmat adds a spooky edge with 'Writing Horror Stories for Children', helping kids craft age-appropriate tales with just the right amount of thrill. He also joins the 'Panel on Comic Translation', sharing insights from his work on the Arabic version of DC's Superman series. Voice artist and dubbing director Asmaa Sameer invites children into the world of voiceovers with 'Dubbing Secrets'. The session features a Disney film she helped adapt into Arabic, followed by an engaging Q&A where young attendees get to uncover how their favourite characters find their voices. Children can bring their stories to life on screen in 'Digital Drawing for Children', an interactive workshop where artist Sarah Yasso guides them through using tablets to create expressive, illustrated tales. Meanwhile, Ahmed Salah Al-Mahdi leads a lively reading session. He joins the 'Panel on Comic Translation', offering insights from his translation work on titles like Absolute Batman and novels by Isaac Asimov and Brandon Sanderson. 'The World of Podcasting' opens the mic to young voices as Mostafa Khadr walks them through turning an idea into a full-fledged podcast. The session gives kids the tools to launch their first audio show, from planning and recording to storytelling techniques.
