In the past few months, there has been a lot of talk about Samsung’s upcoming mobile devices, particularly the Galaxy Z Fold7 and Galaxy Z Flip7. But now, information about the company’s next top-tier tablets is starting to surface, especially as competitors are launching their own products. For instance, Vivo recently introduced the Pad5 and Pad5 Pro in China. On the other hand, OnePlus is gearing up to introduce the Pad 3 worldwide, which will use the same Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset as the OnePlus 13 smartphone (currently priced at $949 on Amazon).

New Developments in Samsung’s Tablet Lineup

Last month, Android Authority reported that Samsung wouldn’t be directly replacing the Galaxy Tab S10 Plus. Instead, the site claimed that Samsung is focusing on reviving a smaller flagship model, currently referred to as ‘GTS11’, which is under development. This suggests a shift in strategy for their tablet lineup.

Battery Specifications and Expectations

As per GalaxyClub, this new model is expected to have a battery capacity rated at 8,160 mAh, similar to the Galaxy Tab S9’s battery, which Samsung markets with an 8,400 mAh typical capacity. Thus, it appears that the Galaxy Tab S11 will likely be released alongside the Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra this summer, instead of the Galaxy Tab S11 Plus.

In contrast, reports from GalaxyClub indicate that the battery for the Ultra model will see an increase of about 4.5% and 500 mAh. This means the rated capacity will rise from 10,880 mAh to 11,374 mAh, which should result in an approximate typical capacity of around 11,700 mAh in commercial units. GalaxyClub highlights that this enhancement for the Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra will be the first upgrade since the Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra. More information regarding Samsung’s upcoming premium tablets is expected to be revealed by the end of next month.
