Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 Android Tablet Hands On: Now with Galaxy AI

Hey there, I’ve got the new Galaxy Tab S 10 ultra here and the launch event for the new S 10 series. There’s no longer the entry level S 10 model, but there is an S 10 plus. Let’s find out what’s new about them and what’s not so new about them. OK. Those of you who follow Samsung and Android tablets know that Samsung makes arguably the best, most versatile Android tablets. And the S series are Samsung’s flagship tablets with prices similar to those of Apple’s ipad Pro models. To be clear, this isn’t a, I only played around with the new tablets for around 15 to 20 minutes. So this is just my quick take on how much of an upgrade they are compared to the previous models for starters. I should point out that Samsung hasn’t changed the price for both the S 10 plus, which has a 12.4 inch display or the S 10 ultra, which has that gigantic 14.6 inch display. The S 10 plus base model starts at $1000 and has 12 gigabytes of RA M and 256 gigs of storage while the S 10 ultra space model starts at 1200 with the same configuration. Both retain a micro SD slot for expanding the storage by up to 1.5 terabytes and both bundle in Samsung’s s pen. One of the big changes this year is that Samsung is no longer offering a smaller 11 inch model that costs a couple of 100 bucks less than the plus model. It’s also moved from Qualcomm Snapdragon processor to a media tech dimensi 9300 plus processor. Some people thought Samsung would use the Snapdragon eight GEN three processor for these tablets since the tab S nines ran on the Snapdragon eight GEN two. But media tech has bumped Qualcomm out for the S tens. Samsung says that new processor gives you an 18% bump in CPU speed. A 28% increase in GP U processing power and a 14% increase in NPU speeds compared to the Galaxy Tab S nine ultras processor. The speed gains are slightly less for the S 10 plus NPU for neural processing unit, which is what powers the tablet’s A I features. And since everything seems to be about A I these days, having faster and more responsive A I features is one of the key things Samsung is highlighting about the new tablets. There are a few other small upgrades. The A moled displays are exactly the same as the previous models displays except that they’re now equipped with anti reflective technology. That helps cut down on the glaab be otherwise the displays have the same pixel density with a to 100 and 20 Hertz refresh rates. The S 10 ultra has a 2960 by 1848 resolution. While the S 10 plus is 2800 by 1752. The tablet’s quad speaker setup is the same, but Samsung says it’s been enhanced with a I powered dialogue boost which quote unquote amplifies voices over unwanted noise to create ultra clear audio. Like the tab S nines, the tab S tens have an IP 68 rating which means they’re fully waterproof and dust proof. And Samsung says the back has been upgraded with more durable enhanced armor, aluminum last but not least. Samsung says it’s also upgraded the tablet’s vapor chamber to help improve with heat dissipation from that new processor. These are obviously incremental upgrades. And as I said, Samsung was highlighting some of the S Ten’s Galaxy A I features which include not assist sketch to image and circle to search along with PDF overlay trans and handwriting help that cleans up your handwrit notes. I obviously haven’t tested the battery life yet, but a Samsung rep told me that the tablets are rated for around 16 hours based on mixed usage, which is good. We’ll have to run our own test to see where they stand compared to the S nines, but it seems like they should have similar battery life even with a more powerful processor for those of you who already own one of the Tab S nine models. These upgrades probably aren’t gonna make you run out and buy a Tab S 10, but I personally own a Tab S A plus and I’ll be looking at what kind of trade in value Samsung will offer me to upgrade, which is how a lot of people get good deals on the latest Samsung devices. I prefer the smaller S 10 plus the ultra is just a little too big for me, but it does stand in well for a laptop replacement or a second display. As always, let me know what you think about the new galaxy tab S tens in the comments section and what other upgrades you would have liked to have seen Samsung make. I’m David Connor for CNET. Thanks for watching.
