Rumors have been circulating about Samsung's upcoming Galaxy Tab S10 series, suggesting it will consist of just two models. A recently leaked promotional image seems to support this, indicating that Samsung will focus on the Galaxy Tab S10+ and S10 Ultra, with no standard Tab S10 in the lineup.
Design and Colors
The designs of the Plus and Ultra models appear to closely resemble their predecessors from the S9 series. The Ultra version maintains its distinctive display notch, whereas the Plus features a notch-free design. The leaked image showcases the Plus model in a Silver finish and the Ultra in Graphite. However, beyond these color options, the image doesn't provide much insight into the devices' specifications.
Charging and Processor Details
Information from various certification sites has revealed some details about the upcoming tablets. According to China's 3C certification, the Galaxy Tab S10 models will support 45W wired charging, similar to the S9 series. Unfortunately, it seems that the charger will be sold separately, a trend that has become common with flagship devices.
The most significant surprise, or perhaps lack thereof, involves the processor. Leaks indicate that the S10+ and Ultra will feature MediaTek's Dimensity 9300+ SoC. This marks a departure from Samsung's historical preference for Qualcomm's Snapdragon chips in its Galaxy Tab S line. This shift makes it the first time a MediaTek processor will power this series.
Anticipated Launch and Future Prospects
The tablets are expected to debut in October, coinciding with MediaTek's anticipated release of the Dimensity 9400 processor. Consequently, the Galaxy Tab S10 series will not only feature a MediaTek chip but also lack the very latest processor technology.
Overall, the leaks suggest a cautious upgrade for the Galaxy Tab S10 lineup. We await official announcements from Samsung to verify these details and gain a complete understanding of what the Galaxy Tab S10 series will offer.
