Samsung just dropped the Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra, and honestly, it’s shaping up to be the Android tablet powerhouse we’ve been waiting for. After the Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra impressed us but left room for improvement, Samsung seems to have listened.
The biggest change? Samsung ditched Qualcomm for MediaTek’s new Dimensity 9400+ processor, paired with ARM’s Immortalis-G925 MC12 GPU that brings ray tracing to the tablet world. That’s a bold move that should deliver serious performance gains over the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 in its predecessor. The 14.6-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X display gets even brighter than before, addressing one of the few complaints about the S10 Ultra’s outdoor visibility.
What really caught our attention is the Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra shipping with Android 16 right out of the box. Samsung’s clearly committed to staying ahead of the software curve, and the enhanced Galaxy AI features should make this tablet feel genuinely smart rather than just powerful. The base model still starts with 12GB RAM and 256GB storage, but you can now spec it up to a whopping 16GB RAM with 1TB storage for serious multitasking.
The build quality looks unchanged, which isn’t necessarily bad since the S10 Ultra felt premium. At 1.53 pounds, it maintains that “Great Dane tablet that thinks it’s a lap dog” vibe we mentioned before, but the improved performance should make that weight feel more justified.
The Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra hits stores September 4 starting at $1,199.99. It’s not cheap, but for Android tablet fans who want the absolute best, this looks like Samsung’s strongest offering yet.
