Samsung has updated its flagship tablet lineup with the introduction of the Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra and Galaxy Tab S10+. These two Android-powered devices are what the South Korean tech giant says are its own products.The first tablet made specifically for AI”
The new tablet brings some notable performance upgrades over its predecessor, improving everything from graphics capabilities to raw computing power. According to Samsung, the CPU of the Galaxy Tab S10 series has been improved by 18% compared to the S9 Ultra (the previous generation’s top model), and the performance of the graphics processing unit (GPU) has been improved by 28%. In keeping with Samsung’s professed AI ambitions, the new S10 series’ Neural Processing Unit (NPU) – the part responsible for the device’s AI capabilities – has also been upgraded by 14%.
Considering Samsung is the world’s largest screen manufacturer, it may not be surprising that the new tablet has one of the best displays on a tablet. The S10+ is the smaller of the two, but it has a 12.4-inch display, making it one of the largest tablet screens on the market. The S10 Ultra is even bigger, with a massive 14.6-inch screen that’s significantly larger than the competition (Apple’s largest tablet has a 13-inch screen). Both models feature a dynamic AMOLED 2X display with a 120Hz refresh rate, making them excellent gaming tablets, with peak brightness of 930 nits for the S10 Ultra and 650 nits for the S10+ for superior performance in bright environments. will demonstrate. Additionally, depending on the brightness of the environment when using the device, Samsung has included adaptive modes such as High Brightness Mode and Vision Booster that automatically adjust the screen for the best viewing experience.
Powering the new tablet is the Dimensity 9300+. This chipset may come as a surprise to those considering Samsung’s choice to include a Snapdragon processor in its S10 series. However, in terms of performance, the Dimensity 9300+ is considered to be on par with the latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, which is the current flagship processor in Android devices. The S10 Ultra comes standard with 12GB of RAM (both 256GB and 512GB options), but tops out at 16GB or RAM (1TB model only). The S10+ is only available with 12GB or RAM (256GB and 512GB storage options). One thing to note is that both models have a microSD card slot that allows users to increase their storage. This hasn’t changed since the Tab S9 series and continues to be one of the strong selling points of Samsung devices.
Samsung is touting the AI features of its new tablet, and some of them are related to productivity. These include Note Assist, which can automatically summarize and transcribe a user’s notes (including notes handwritten using the S Pen stylus), and (as the name suggests) actually organize messy handwritten notes. Contains handwriting help to help you. Another, Sketch to Image, turns users’ doodles into drawings so even people with artistic disabilities can visualize what’s in their heads. Samsung’s S Pen stylus also comes standard in the box of each device, unlike its biggest competitors who sell the stylus separately.
Both the S10 Ultra and S10+ feature quad-speaker setups for loud, clean sound. AI plays a role here too, with the onboard microphone being further improved through Dialogue Boost. Dialogue Boost helps amplify your voice and isolate background noise for crystal clear audio during calls. Both models are IP68 rated, making them fully dustproof and, best of all, virtually waterproof, even when submerged in 1 meter (3 feet) of water for up to 30 minutes. . Samsung also enhanced both devices with its claims Armor Aluminum is a sturdy metal that is “built to withstand shock and abrasion for use anywhere, anytime.” So if you plan on using these devices on the go or by the pool, you’re probably fine.
Battery life on both models is impressive, with the larger S10 Ultra having a 11200 mAh battery and the S10+ having a slightly smaller 10090 mAh battery. Depending on how you use your tablet, you can expect graphics-intensive applications such as games that use more resources to last a full day to two days or more before needing to be charged.
The Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra and Galaxy Tab S10+ are available now at most retailers and Samsung’s website. Both models are available in Moonstone Gray and Platinum Silver, with the S10+ starting at $999 USD and the S10 Ultra starting at $1199 USD.
