The Galaxy Tab S9 FE might not remain the most affordable Samsung tablet of 2023. Many signs have shown that there's a new Galaxy Tab A9 series in the works, and oddly enough, it already appears to be on sale, even though, technically speaking, it's unannounced.
Samsung's Galaxy Tab A9, of the LTE variety, has been listed for sale on the company's online shop for Guatemala. The store page includes the renders above and below, confirming the tablet's design and gray color option.
Update: New renders have emerged (via @rquandt) showcasing the Galaxy Tab A9 in two more colors:
Original story follows
These are the first official images of the Galaxy Tab A9, but specifications and other details are missing from the online store, so it's hard not to wonder if Samsung listed the tablet by mistake and the latter wasn't supposed to be on sale yet.

The Galaxy A9 LTE may cost less than $200
Premature listings are usually accompanied by a button that says the product is not available for purchase. But what's even more curious about this listing is that it has a buy button, complete with a price.
According to Samsung's online shop in Guatemala, the Galaxy Tab A9 LTE costs 1,499 Quetzal, or the equivalent of about $191. That's not bad for an LTE-enable tablet rumored to have a MediaTek Helio G99 chip, 4GB of RAM, 64GB of storage, and an 8.7-inch LCD.
Granted, the Galaxy Tab A9 is an entry-level tablet, but you don't have many other options for under $200 anyway. If you want something more powerful and S Pen support without spending money on a flagship, you may want to consider the new Galaxy Tab S9 FE.
As for the Galaxy Tab A9, again, this listing seems odd and premature. But perhaps Samsung didn't make an error and did release the device without much fanfare according to plan. If so, it may continue bringing the Tab A9 to more markets quietly. The Galaxy Tab A9 is expected to also go on sale in Europe.
