Samsung Galaxy Tab S5e Accessories: Great Keyboards, Cases & More

Half the fun of getting a new gadget lies in creating your own little ecosystem around it with all the accessories you need to make your usage a tad more delightful. The Samsung Galaxy Tab S5e was announced a little while back with a premium set of features, barring some of its internals, and it already has a robust accessory bazaar established around it. Some of these accessories are built specifically for the mid-tier tablet while others will work with virtually any tablet.

We found the below-mentioned accessories to be great in their own categories either based on our in-house testing and day-to-day use or based on the great reviews they got on Amazon.

Here are the best accessories for the Galaxy Tab S5e you might want to invest in.

Galaxy Tab S5e Book Cover Keyboard from Samsung

Taking inspirations largely from its Apple iPad counterpart, this Book Cover from Samsung is meant to bring a bit of productivity to your brand-new Galaxy Tab S5e tablet. Being a first-party accessory, you need not worry about the fit and finish as its flat side perfectly aligns with the tablet’s rear while the keyboard covers the display.

It connects with the tablet using a set of POGO pin connectors and doesn’t require any batteries to operate. The keyboard case surely helps you make use of that cherished Samsung DeX mode but it has its own downsides. For starters, it costs $129, which is a third of the tablet’s list price itself, though there are some offers running, at least initially, that may get you a deal. Secondly, the cover restricts you to only one viewing angle which may not be convenient in all situations.

Logitech K380 Bluetooth Keyboard

The Logitech K380 is a great addition to any tablet setup that requires a keyboard thanks to its lightweight design and wealth of connectivity options. You can connect this Bluetooth keyboard to up to 3 devices, be it Android, iOS, Windows, Mac, Chrome OS, or even TV, and easily switch between them using dedicated buttons that double up as function keys.

Even without a multi-device setup, this Logitech keyboard offers an enjoyable typing experience despite its unconventional circular keys. Being a full-sized keyboard and battery-powered, this product can be just dropped into your backpack for you to start working on your Galaxy Tab S5e virtually anywhere. A separate keyboard has an advantage for those not willing to have a keyboard always slapped on to their tablet, but you’ll still need to go through the cumbersome pairing process.

ProCase Hard Shell Folio Case

Not everyone needs a keyboard attached to their Galaxy Tab S5e tablet neither do they want to spend upwards of $100 on a case. This tablet case from ProCase will protect your Samsung tablet from scratches without having to dig deep into your pocket. While it has a hard plastic shell to protect the back, the front lid can fold at three points to form a stand for the device.

It has a magnetic closing mechanism that can automatically put the device to sleep or wake it up. The cover has precise cutouts for the tablet’s keys and rear camera with its great fit also widely appreciated in several product reviews on Amazon. You can get this cover in three color options—Black, Grey and Navy. With all the protection, the case will also add about 100 grams to the tablet’s weight.

Infiland Business Folder Case

People planning to use the Samsung tablet in a business setting might want a case that matches their formal work environment. This product from Infiland has a folder-like design that has a sophisticated look which is ideal for the aforementioned use case. It has a premium fabric finish on the outside with the tablet nicely sitting inside a hard plastic shell.

Your tablet will not only have all-round protection but will also be able to stand upright at three different angles. It has a loop-style stylus holder on one of its edges and also comes with a wide pocket to store small objects. This one also supports auto sleep and wake feature and is available in a bunch of colors, though you should keep in mind the bulk it’d add to the thin-and-light tablet.
