With all major consumer electronic brands pushing hard on the AI pedal, Samsung’s push into AI has also become quite evident – take one look into the company’s newest additions to its tablet lineup. The company announced new set of tablets, and all models are obviously ‘built for AI’, coming with a dedicated AI button and Galaxy AI.
The next-generation flagship tablets are the Galaxy Tab S10+ and Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra, and the company claims that they are “built with AI enhancements available right out of the box.” Both devices come with the anti-reflective Dynamic AMOLED 2X displays (making them suitable for use in various lighting conditions, including outdoors), a durability rating of IP68, and others. Interested users can pre-order both models, which start from $1,200 (for the Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra) and $999 (for the Tab S10+). Shipping begins from October 3.

What makes the newest models stand out is their deep integration of AI services and capabilities, which are specifically tailored to enhance the experience of its users. Samsung notes that the Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra comes with an 18% increase in CPU and increase of 28% in its GPU when compared to its predecessor, which “enables faster and more responsive AI features.” This means that the upcoming Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra and the Galaxy Tab S10+ are powered by Samsung’s
“Galaxy AI” suite, which introduces tools such as Circle to Search, Handwriting Assist, PDF Overlay Translation, Note Assist, Sketch to Image, and more.
With these features, tasks will be simplified, and the AI suite also allows the devices to serve as home hubs for Samsung’s SmartThings ecosystem, enabling users to control their connected devices through a new 3D Map View (to provide a visual overview of users’ homes) and Insight Messages. With the S10 series, users will also be able to access third-party apps such as Goodnotes directly from the devices.
