Samsung is preparing to announce the Galaxy Tab S10 series, but there’s an unusual twist this time. According to new information, there will be no basic model in the Galaxy Tab S10 series. Instead, we will have to make do with the Tab S10+ and Tab S10 Ultra models. Why this change in strategy? Will there be no cheaper version?
Samsung may not produce a basic model for the Galaxy Tab S10
Samsung continues to offer large screens, premium designs, and high-performance features in its Android tablets. However, it is reported that the Galaxy Tab S10 series, expected to be released later this year or early 2025, will not include a basic model. This means that, unlike last year’s Galaxy Tab S9 series, which had three models, we will only see the Tab S10+ and Tab S10 Ultra this time.
The exact reasons behind Samsung’s decision are not clear. However, considering the competition with Apple’s iPad Pro models, it is thought that Samsung aims to stand out in the market with two strong models. Apple has achieved great success with its iPad Pro series, offering 11 and 13-inch models. Similarly, Samsung wants to position itself in the market with the Tab S10+ and Tab S10 Ultra models.
The screen sizes of the Galaxy Tab S10+ and Tab S10 Ultra models will be similar to the 12.4 and 14.6-inch screens of the Tab S9+ and Tab S9 Ultra. These massive screens will use the latest AMOLED display technology. However, with Apple also transitioning from LCD to OLED screens, Samsung may lose a significant advantage in this area.
Rumors suggest that the Tab S10+ and Tab S10 Ultra models could be more affordable than their predecessors. This is because Samsung plans to use MediaTek’s high-end Dimensity 9300 Plus processor in these models. When combined with 16GB of RAM, this processor will offer more than enough performance for most users. However, it is not yet clear whether this processor will be used in all global markets or only in certain regions.
Leaked render images of the new Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra indicate that there will not be a significant change in Samsung’s flagship tablet design. Similarly, no major changes are expected in the internal hardware.
