Intro
The new Galaxy Tab S11 family is official!
The larger tablet is definitely the more exciting one, though it’s not necessarily the most compact one you will be able to get. In fact, Samsung’s Ultra tablets are comically large and not really fit for lugging around due to their 14.6-inch display.
How does the new Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra compare to the older Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra?
| Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra | Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra |
|---|---|
| Same 14.6-inch display with the same resolution | 14.6-inch Dynamic AMOLED display with 2960 x 1848 resolution |
| MediaTek Dimensitty 9400 chipset, 3nm | MediaTek Dimensity 9300+ chip, 4nm |
| A bit larger at 326.7 x 208.3 x 5.5 mm | Slightly more compact, 326.4 x 208.6 x 5.4 mm |
| Slightly lighter at 692 gr | A bit heavier at 723 gr |
| A bit larger 11,600 mAh battery | Smaller 11,200 mAh battery |
| S Pen included | S Pen included |
Design and Display
Little changes
Samsung hasn’t changed the design of the Galaxy Tab S Ultra substantially, which was expected. There’s little leeway in terms of possible changes, and by the way, how many ways are there to design a tablet slab?
Anyway, we have the same large all-aluminum device with that signature and enormous 14.6-inch display up front. The notch is still there but it’s smaller due to the S11 Ultra having just one front-facing camera.
There’s another difference and it concerns the S Pen position. The new Tab S11 Ultra drops the magnetic strip on the back and now the S Pen attaches to the side of the slate. Another minor difference is the design of the cameras on the back, the new tablet has bigger camera rings compared to its predecessor.
The Galaxy S10 Ultra is similar, with the only suggested design difference between the two being ever so slightly different dimensions. The new tablet measures 326.7 × 208.3 × 5.5 mm, while the older one is 326.4 x 208.6 x 5.4 mm. Yet, the margins are so little that you probably won’t be able to tell the difference.
Weight-wise, the new tablet weighs 692 grams, while the older one tipped the scales at 723 gr, so a bit heavier, but not that much. In the hand both devices feel quite heavy as the weight is spread over a large surface, creating a leverage effect when you hold the tablet.
Colors-wise, the new tablet comes in Gray and Silver, just like the Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra. We also have the same IP68 water- and dust-resistance rating carried over from the previous generation.
The display remains largely unchanged: both tablets feature 14.6-inch Dynamic AMOLED screens. Both share the same 2960 x 1848-pixel resolution and can refresh up to 120Hz. Absolutely beautiful and stunning in real life, and perfect for artistic purposes or media consumption.
Keyboard and Stylus
Despite recent developments, the S Pen remains a constant and is included inside the box of the Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra. The accessory is a boon on large tablets like Samsung’s flagship ones, greatly aiding the overall utility and functionality of the slate.
The keyboard situation is identical, there’s no new Book Cover Keyboard model, and the Tab S11 Ultra is compatible with the old keyboard.
Performance & Benchmarks
Welcome, 3nm
It’s finally time for the Galaxy Tab S Ultra to score a 3nm chipset. The chipset in question is the MediaTek Dimensity 9400+, a proper octa-core flagship chip that supercharges the Tab S11’s performance.
The Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra came with the MediaTek Dimensity 9300+, a 4nm chip. It’s properly fast and thanks to our early benchmarks we were able to conduct while Samsung reps weren’t watching, we have some numbers for you. Check out the test results below.
CPU Performance Benchmarks:
GPU Performance
In terms of storage and memory, there are no changes: the new tablet comes with 12GB of RAM in both its 256GB and 512GB versions, while a 1TB variant with 16GB RAM is also available.
The Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra allowed for memory expansion through a microSD card slot, but we there’s no such option on the Galaxy S11 Ultra.
Software
The Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra launches with OneUI 8 out of the box, so it’s one of the first devices from the Galaxy family (along with the S25 FE) to get Samsung’s newest UI.
The Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra enjoys the same seven year support cycle, just like the Tab S10 Ultra.
Battery and Charging
Samsung has increased the battery size of the Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra to 11,600 mAh, a small but notable increase over the 11,200 mAh battery inside the older Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra.
Combining this battery increase with the more efficient chip inside, the Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra could sport a significantly better battery life, hopefully. Stay tuned for our battery tests.
One thing that remains unchanged is the 45W wired charging, which will be a common property of both tablets. Not too bad for a tablet.
Camera
The Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra boasts dual rear cameras, a wide and an ultrawide, identical to its predecessor. The Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra came with a 13MP wide and an 8MP ultrawide.
Samsung has decided to remove the second 12MP wide front-facing camera, so the Tab S11 Ultra now features just a single 12MP ultrawide selfie snapper. The older model has two 12MP front cameras and subsequently a larger and more prominent notch.
Tablets aren’t something you buy for the cameras, but having a pair is indispensable still. We will snap a few side-by-side samples when we get the Tab S11 Ultra in our lab, so stay tuned for that.
Which one should you buy?
The Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra looks like a minor upgrade that will hardly make any Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra users upgrade. It’s the slightly better performance and battery life that could be the biggest attractor here, especially for users of older Galaxy Tab S tablets.
