Samsung's upcoming Galaxy Tab S10 series has been the subject of numerous leaks and rumors lately. New promotional images have surfaced, offering a clearer look at the design and specifications of the Galaxy Tab S10 Plus and S10 Ultra models.
Key Details Revealed

Design and Display
The leaked images show that Samsung is sticking with a familiar design language for the Tab S10 series.

This design consistency suggests Samsung is confident in the visual appeal and functionality of its previous generation tablets.

Processor Choice Raises Questions
Interestingly, despite the imminent launch of MediaTek's Dimensity 9400 chipset, Samsung appears to be opting for the slightly older Dimensity 9300. This decision could impact performance comparisons with competitors, but may allow Samsung to keep costs down while still offering significant improvements over the previous generation.
Launch Timeline
While an exact release date hasn't been confirmed, several factors point to an October launch:
- Support pages for the Galaxy Tab S10 Plus have appeared on Samsung's website
- October aligns with Samsung's previous tablet release patterns
- It avoids conflicting with Apple's September iPhone event
What's Next?
As we approach the potential launch window, expect more concrete details about specifications, pricing, and availability to emerge. The lack of a standard S10 model also raises questions about Samsung's tablet strategy and how it plans to position these premium devices in the market.
