Samsung launches Galaxy S12 series, and the base model is nowhere to be found
The Plus model is back.
Samsung has unveiled its Galaxy Tab S12 series tablets, omitting the base model and reintroducing the Plus variant. The lineup also includes the 14.6-inch Ultra model. Both the tablets showcase a sleeker design, powered by the Dimensity 9500 processor, feature 120Hz AMOLED displays, and incorporate new AI/multitasking functionalities.
They offer extended video playback of up to 23 hours. The Galaxy Tab S12 Plus will retail for $1,199.99, while the Tab S12 Ultra is priced at $1,399.99, with availability commencing on October 7. Samsung, being a key player in the tablet market, appears to be refining its flagship tablet approach through this latest Tab S12 series adjustment.
Unlike last year's Tab S11 series, where Samsung opted to omit the mid-sized Plus model in favor of the Tab S11 and Tab S11 Ultra, this year, Samsung is reversing that decision and reintroducing the Plus model. However, there's a trade-off: the absence of a base model.
