Samsung is expected to unveil the Galaxy Tab S8 series in the next few days. The lineup is said to include three models, namely Galaxy Tab S8, Galaxy Tab S8+, and Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra. Ahead of these tablets’ official announcement, the entire specs of the Ultra model have emerged.

According to SamMobile, the Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra will measure 208.6 x 326.4 x 5.5mm in dimensions and flaunt a huge 14.6-inch WQXGA+ display with a notch as well as 6.3mm slim bezels. Interestingly, it will be powered by the recently announced Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset instead of a Snapdragon 888 SoC as rumored earlier.

The tablet will arrive in three memory configurations, such as 8GB + 128GB, 12GB + 256GB, and 16GB + 512GB. It will also come in both WiFi-only and cellular (LTE/5G) versions. Although the publication doesn’t say anything, the availability of these variants should vary by region.

Despite measuring only 5.5mm in thickness, the device will house a massive 11,200mAh battery with support for 45W fast charging. Like the previous Galaxy Tab S series models, this one will also have a magnetic strip at the back to attach the S Pen accessory.

Even though it’s a slate, it will come with four cameras, two each on front and back. The rear setup will include a 13MP primary sensor and a 6MP ultra-wide unit. Whereas, the notch on the front will nest a 12MP primary shooter and a 12MP ultra-wide snapper.

On the software front, the device will ship with One UI 4.1 based on Android 12. The updated version of One UI 4 will come with certain new features like ‘Extra Dim’ mode to reduce eye strain while using the tablet, an option to adjust app window transparency, and the ability to launch apps easily from the taskbar.

Last but not least, the slate will arrive with a new ‘DeX Portrait’ mode to convert DeX from landscape to landscape to portrait orientation and a redesigned Samsung Health app with a 3-column layout.

Samsung is expected to debut the Galaxy Tab S8 series in early 2022. Ahead of that, we got to see the renders of the vanilla Galaxy Tab S8 yesterday. A few hours later, the same source has now shared the renders of Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra.

Well-known leaker Steve Hemmerstoffer (@OnLeaks) has partnered with 91Mobiles to reveal the design of the upcoming Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra. The renders by him give us an idea about the tablet’s look. 

According to the renders, the Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra will feature a notch for the front-facing camera. If this happens to be true, then Samsung’s 8th gen flagship Android tablet will go official as the first-ever mainstream tablet with a notch.

Thanks to this notch, the 14.6-inch display-equipped slate will have minimal bezels all-around. Although slim bezels are good for aesthetics, they are not preferable on a product like a tablet that needs to be held in hands by their sides.

On the back, the product will have the exact same design as the vanilla Galaxy Tab S8. This means It will house a vertically aligned dual-camera array, a magnetic strip to hold and charge the S Pen stylus, and Samsung branding.

The right side will include a power key and volume buttons, whereas the left side may sport connectors for the official keyboard accessory but they are not shown in the renders. Then, the slate will have quad speakers with dual speaker grilles on the top and the bottom sides. The bottom side will also house a USB Type-C port.

Last but not least, the product will measure 325.8 x 207.9 x 5.4mm in dimensions.

According to previous reports, the Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra will flaunt a 14.6-inch OLED display with a resolution of 2960 x 1848 pixels, 240 PPI, 120Hz refresh rate, and BRS (Border Reduction Structure). It will be backed by an 11,500mAh battery. An older report even detailed more information along with price but they probably aren’t accurate.

The latest rumor arrives from known tipster Ice Universe. In a recent tweet, Ice Universe shared the size of the display along with the screen resolution and battery capacity of the upcoming Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra. Reportedly, the top end model will sport a massive 14.6 inch display that has a 2960×1848px resolution and a whopping 11,500mAh battery pack that runs the tablet. Notably, the display size and battery size is in line with previous reports that we had covered earlier this year.

Furthermore, the resolution and display size implies that the Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra will feature pixel density of 240 PPI. This is only slightly lower than the previously launched Galaxy Tab S7+ that has a 266 PPI. The panel on the Tab S8 Ultra is an OLED display, although, the base Tab S8 will feature a TFT panel. On the other hand, the Tab S8+ will also sport an OLED panel while every model is expected to feature support for 120Hz high refresh rate.

The South Korean tech giant is also reportedly working on a new ultra thin bezel technology called BRS (Border Reduction Structure). This feature would enable thinner bezels for both smartphones and tablet from the company. Unfortunately, finer details regarding the next gen flagship tablet gen is still unknown but stay tuned for more updates as we will be covering any new information surfacing about the Tab S8 series that is expected to launch sometime in early 2022.
