Galaxy Tab S12 Ultra review: Samsung's ultimate tablet is too much for most
There’s another premium tablet gunning for the iPad’s crown. Samsung’s new Galaxy Tab S12 Ultra is an absolute beast, boasting a gigantic 14.6-inch AMOLED screen, a powerful processor and a slimline design that makes it surprisingly portable despite its monstrous dimensions. It looks seriously impressive, but is it really worth its eye-watering £1,399 price tag?
TL;DR
- The Galaxy Tab S12 Ultra features a large 14.6-inch AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate.
- It is powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 9500 processor, capable of handling multiple demanding tasks simultaneously.
- The tablet offers good battery life and an IP68 water-resistance rating.
- An optional £399 keyboard cover enhances its laptop-like functionality, and it includes a digital S Pen.
- Integrated AI features like Writing Assist and Drawing Assist are present, along with Google Gemini.
- The tablet's main drawbacks are its high price (£1,399), large physical size, and Android's limitations as a complete laptop replacement.
- The reviewer suggests that the predecessor, the Tab S11 Ultra, may offer better value for those seeking similar features at a lower cost.
