Samsung is preparing to refresh its premium tablet lineup later this year, and we now have a solid idea of when to expect the Galaxy Tab S11 series. A company executive has confirmed that the next-gen tablets are on track for a September 2025 launch — promising upgraded performance, larger batteries, and more AI-powered features.
In a recent conversation with Android Authority (July 9), a Samsung South Africa official stated that the Tab S11 series will debut “shortly, in line with our traditional cadence.” That timeline aligns with the release of the Galaxy Tab S10 series last September, suggesting a similar launch window this year.
The Galaxy Tab S11 series is expected to include just two models: the standard Galaxy Tab S11 and the larger Tab S11 Ultra, unlike the Tab S10 series, which included the “Plus” and “Ultra”. It also marks the return of a more compact 11-inch size, something fans missed last year.
Under the hood, both models will run on MediaTek’s new Dimensity 9400+ chipset — a step up from the Dimensity 9300+ used in the S10 series — and will ship with Android 16 and One UI 8. According to reports and rumors, the base Tab S11 will feature an 11-inch AMOLED display and an 8,400mAh battery, while the Tab S11 Ultra will retain its massive 14.6-inch screen.
The new tablets will also lean into Galaxy AI, with features aimed at multitasking and cross-device connectivity. The base model surfaced on Geekbench last month with an underwhelming performance: 1420 in single-core and 5312 in multi-core tests. However the Tab S11 Ultra surfaced on the platform a few days later with much improved scores. Whether its a reflection of the final performance testing or the brand was still tweaking some variables to find a sweet spot remains to be seen.
With a September 2025 launch now all but confirmed, Samsung is aiming to deliver a refined, AI-driven tablet experience that caters to both casual users and professionals. Pre-orders are expected to go live closer to the launch — likely through samsung.com and major retailers.
