Samsung Galaxy Tab S12 series launch and specifications

Overview

Samsung has officially launched the Galaxy Tab S12 series, consisting of the Galaxy Tab S12 Ultra and the Galaxy Tab S12+. The lineup moves away from a base model to focus on high-end productivity. Both tablets are powered by a 3nm MediaTek Dimensity 9500 chipset, offering significant improvements in NPU, CPU, and GPU performance.

The Galaxy Tab S12 Ultra features a 14.6-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X display with a 120Hz refresh rate and a 5.1mm profile, while the S12+ offers a 12.6-inch screen and a 5.3mm profile. Both models include IP68 resistance, Armor Aluminium construction, and an improved 3D vapor chamber cooling system. The Ultra model is noted for its ultra-thin design, while competitors like the Xiaomi Pad 7 Pro offer more portable, lighter alternatives.

Integrated Galaxy AI features are central to the series, specifically targeting learning and professional workflows. These include real-time audio-to-text transcription for lecture notes, automated summarization, and an AI problem-solving tool that provides step-by-step logic for academic questions. The devices also support Bixby voice interaction for language practice and visual queries.

Running on Android 17 with One UI 9, the series is slated for seven years of OS updates. Software support includes Adobe Photoshop, LumaFusion, and specialized access to CLIP STUDIO PAINT. Regional availability includes trade-in promotions in Poland via Foxway, offering bonuses of 500 PLN for the S12+ or 600 PLN for the Ultra, alongside various digital subscriptions and hardware gifts.
