Samsung’s Galaxy Tab S12 Ultra targets people who want an expansive portable canvas for notes, creative work, video, and split-screen productivity. Its 14.6-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X display keeps the 2,960 x 1,848 resolution and 120Hz refresh rate associated with the Ultra format, while the tablet measures just 0.20 inches thick. The Wi-Fi model weighs 1.53 pounds, making it a substantial device to carry but unusually slim for its screen size.
The headline hardware change is the MediaTek Dimensity 9500, an octa-core processor with clocks up to 4.21GHz. Samsung pairs it with up to 16GB of RAM and 1TB of internal storage, while retaining a microSD slot supporting cards up to 2TB. An S Pen is included in the box, and the tablet carries an IP68 rating for dust and water resistance.
A large-screen mobile workspace
Samsung is positioning One UI 9 on Android 17 around multitasking, DeX, and pen input. Multi Window can divide the display into as many as three areas, allowing apps such as Samsung Notes, a video player, and an AI assistant to remain open at once. Note Assist can automatically summarize notes.
The company will sell a Pro Keyboard separately, with an aluminum finish and a Galaxy AI Key for quick access to compatible AI assistants. A Book Cover Keyboard Slim is also available separately. Samsung says the tablet will receive major operating-system updates and security patches for seven years.
