Samsung Galaxy Tab S11 Series Now Official

Samsung has officially announced the Galaxy Tab S11 series in the Philippines. The company calls it its most intelligent and advanced tablet experience to date. The new lineup consists of two models: the Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra with a 14.6-inch display and the Galaxy Tab S11 with an 11-inch screen. Both tablets are designed to deliver enhanced productivity and creativity through advanced AI capabilities, improved hardware, and a redesigned user experience.

What AI-Powered Features Does the Galaxy Tab S11 Series Offer?

The Galaxy Tab S11 series introduces One UI 8, bringing multimodal AI capabilities that understand what users type, say, and see. The tablets feature Gemini Live, which enables real-time screen sharing and visual input for natural conversations with the AI assistant about on-screen content or objects viewed through the camera.

Users can activate Gemini by pressing and holding the side button to carry out commands across apps with single voice instructions. For instance, users can share an article link with Gemini and request it to summarize the content and save it to Samsung Notes automatically.

The series includes the complete suite of Galaxy AI features optimized for large screens. Drawing Assist transforms rough sketches into clean visuals that can be dragged and dropped into Samsung Notes, while Writing Assist helps refine tone and style for various documents. Circle to Search with Google now provides real-time text translation as users scroll through content in different languages.

How Does the Galaxy Tab 11 Series Enhance Productivity?

Samsung has significantly upgraded DeX functionality to maximize productivity across both models. The new Extended Mode transforms the Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra and an external monitor into a seamless dual-screen setup, running Samsung DeX across both displays simultaneously. Users can drag and drop apps between screens or reference documents on one screen while presenting on another.

The updated DeX allows users to create up to four separate, customized workspaces for different needs, such as dedicated environments for work, creative projects, or trip planning. This flexibility enables users to set up complete working environments from virtually anywhere, whether connecting to a meeting room TV for presentations or working on documents in various locations.

Both tablets come with the redesigned S Pen featuring a cone-shaped tip that supports increased tilt angles for better control. The hexagonal design provides a more natural, ergonomic feel, while Quick Tools offer floating access for on-the-fly adjustments during drawing or editing sessions.

What Performance Improvements Does the Galaxy Tab 11 Series Deliver?

The Galaxy Tab S11 series features Samsung’s enhanced 3nm processor, marking the first time this advanced chip technology appears in the Galaxy Tab lineup. The Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra delivers significant performance improvements with 33% better NPU performance, 24% CPU enhancement, and 27% GPU improvement compared to its predecessor.

Both models are equipped with high-capacity batteries and efficient thermal management systems to ensure reliable, long-lasting performance for work and creative tasks. The tablets feature Dynamic AMOLED 2X displays with up to 1600 nits of peak brightness, providing clear, vivid visuals both indoors and outdoors.

How Thin and Portable Is the Galaxy Tab 11 Series Design?

Samsung has achieved its thinnest tablet design yet with the Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra measuring just 5.1mm in thickness, while maintaining powerful performance capabilities. The Ultra model features narrow 5.2mm bezels that maximize screen space without compromising portability, weighing 695g for the 5G variant.

The Galaxy Tab S11 maintains a slim profile at 5.5mm thickness with 7.8mm bezels, weighing 469g for Wi-Fi and 471g for 5G models. Both tablets feature IP68 water and dust resistance rating and include Armor AL for enhanced durability.

What Third-Party Applications Support the Galaxy Tab 11 Series?

The Galaxy Tab S11 series provides extensive third-party application support for various professional and creative needs. Users gain access to Goodnotes with a 1-year free version, Clip Studio Paint offering a 6-month free trial with 20% off the first subscription, and LumaFusion with 66% discount plus a one-month free Creator Pass.

Additional productivity applications include Notion with a one-month free trial of its Plus plan, Noteshelf 3 for customizable note-taking layouts, ArcSite for precision CAD design tools, and Picsart for AI-driven creative projects. These applications are designed to streamline workflows and enhance both productivity and creative capabilities.

The Galaxy Tab S11 series will be available starting September 26 in select markets, offered exclusively in Gray color. Both models come with the Book Cover Keyboard Slim included in the box, transforming the tablets into mobile workstations with instant access to AI assistants through the dedicated Galaxy AI Key.
