Samsung Launches Galaxy Tab S12 Plus and Ultra Tablets
Samsung has released its latest flagship tablet lineup, featuring the Galaxy Tab S12 Plus and the Galaxy Tab S12 Ultra. The release marks a shift in the company's update cycle, leaving out a standard-sized model for this year.
Samsung has officially introduced the Galaxy Tab S12 series, consisting of the S12 Plus and the S12 Ultra. This release follows a pattern where Samsung alternates updates for its standard and Plus-sized flagship tablets. Consequently, the S12 Plus represents a significant overhaul compared to the Tab S10 Plus, which was released two years ago.
In contrast, the Galaxy Tab S12 Ultra features relatively few hardware changes when compared to its predecessor, the Tab S11 Ultra. Notably, Samsung has opted not to release a standard, non-Plus version of the Galaxy Tab S12 this year. This decision leaves consumers who prefer smaller tablet form factors without a new entry in the flagship series until at least 2027, according to current product cycle expectations.
