Gurugram, October 01, 2026: Samsung today announced that its Galaxy Tab S12 series will be available in India starting October 7. The Galaxy Tab S12 Ultra and Tab S12+, available in Gray and Silver colours, deliver Samsung’s most capable and versatile tablet experience to date, combining breakthrough performance, long-lasting battery life, and the latest Galaxy AI in an ultra-thin design.
Built for productivity
The Galaxy Tab S12 Ultra and Tab S12+ feature expansive Dynamic AMOLED 2X displays with peak brightness up to 1600 nits. Additionally, the Vision Booster feature on these tabs adjusts brightness in real time to ensure vivid visuals and comfortable viewing in any lighting.
With the 14.6-inch Ultra and 12.6-inch Plus model, users can split the screen into three sections in Multi Window layout for seamless multitasking. They can, for instance, take notes in Samsung Notes while streaming a lecture and accessing an AI assistant simultaneously.
At just 5.1mm slim, the Galaxy Tab S12 Ultra is Samsung’s thinnest Galaxy Tab yet, while the Galaxy Tab S12+ measures a comparable 5.3mm. Both devices pack an energy-efficient 3nm processor that delivers 61% faster NPU processing, 19% faster CPU performance, and 17% improved GPU power compared to its predecessor. This ensures smooth performance for demanding tasks like rendering creative projects or multitasking with lectures and note-taking.
The all-day battery lasts up to 23 hours (1) on the Ultra and 21 hours on the Plus, with rapid charging from 0% to 100% in just 95 minutes using the 45W adapter. Their newly designed 3D Vapor Chamber efficiently dissipates heat for reliable performance during extended use.
Engineered for durability, the Galaxy Tab S12 series is IP68-rated for water and dust resistance, ensuring resilience in various environments.
Sound is enhanced with 4-channel spatial audio that delivers a rich, immersive experience for streaming, tutorials, or editing. Both models come with an ergonomic S Pen for precise input. Productivity can be further enhanced with a Pro Keyboard Cover that turns these tabs into a professional workstation, complete with a Galaxy AI Key for instant access to AI assistants.
Loaded with apps
Running Android 17 with One UI 9, the Galaxy Tab S12 series integrates Galaxy AI for seamless task management. Note Assist summarises notes in real time, while a six-month trial of Google AI Pro provides access to Gemini for instant clarification and deeper exploration of topics.
The Samsung Browser enhances research efficiency by summarising open tabs and surfacing relevant sources. Adobe Photoshop is pre-installed for pro-grade image editing, Goodnotes offers clean note-taking with one year of free access, while LumaFusion enables professional-grade video editing at a 66% discount. Clip Studio Paint provides precision drawing tools for digital art with a six-month trial and 20% off the first subscription, and ArcSite converts rough sketches into precise CAD drawings. Exclusive benefits include four months of free Photoshop mobile plan access and discounts on subscriptions.
