The Galaxy Tab S12+ is Samsung’s large-screen Android tablet for buyers who want much of the flagship hardware without stepping up to the larger Tab S12 Ultra. At 553 grams and 5.3 mm thick, it is designed to be the more bag-friendly model, while retaining a premium Armor Aluminum build, IP68 dust and water resistance, and a bundled S Pen.
Samsung positions the Tab S12+ as the closer successor to the Galaxy Tab S10+. It moves from that model’s 4 nm Dimensity 9300+ chip to MediaTek’s 3 nm Dimensity 9500, the same processor used in the Tab S12 Ultra. The tablet is available in black or white, and its front design avoids the Ultra model’s display notch for the selfie camera.
Built for mobile work, drawing, and gaming
The AMOLED panel is described as bright, although a hands-on impression noted that it could be reflective indoors. Samsung has also given the tablet thicker edges intended to provide a more secure place for fingers when holding it, a practical distinction for a device in this size class.
For performance-intensive apps and games, the Tab S12+ has a redesigned vapor chamber. Samsung says the cooling system is 6% more efficient than the one in the Tab S11 series. The tablet also has quad speakers and a battery with more than 500 mAh of additional capacity compared with the Tab S10+. Exact battery capacity was not provided.
AI tools and accessories expand the laptop-style pitch
The software package combines Samsung and third-party AI tools. Samsung is offering six months of Google AI Pro with 5 TB of storage, alongside Galaxy AI, Gemini, Gemini Notebook, Bixby, and Perplexity. Supported features include text rewriting, Audio Erase, real-time translation, Now Brief, Now Nudge, and My Fancam.
The new Book Cover Keyboard Pro is the key productivity accessory. It uses an aluminum body, includes a dedicated Galaxy AI key, and attaches magnetically. Samsung also lists several protective and viewing accessories for the tablet:
- Smart Book Cover
- Frame Cover
- Anti-reflective screen protection
Samsung is also promoting software offers for creative and note-taking workflows:
- Adobe Photoshop
- Clip Studio Paint
- Goodnotes
- LumaFusion
- Noteshelf 3
- ArcSite
- Notability
- Notion
The Galaxy Tab S12+ is listed from €1,319 to €1,669, with 5G variants also planned. Those are euro prices, not U.S. pricing; Samsung has not confirmed U.S. availability or dollar pricing in the available information. On paper, this is the Tab S12 model for users who prioritize a premium productivity setup, pen input, and a durable design but find the Ultra model too large to carry comfortably.
