Samsung Galaxy Tab S7

Along with the Samsung Galaxy Note20 and Samsung Galaxy Z Fold2, Samsung today announced new Galaxy Tab S7 Android tablets at their Unpacked event. Samsung’s flagship tablets are now available in two sizes, 11-inches for the Galaxy Tab S7 and a full 12.4-inches with the Galaxy Tab S7 +.

Packed with cutting-edge features and seamlessly integrated into the Galaxy ecosystem, the Galaxy Tab S7 and S7+ are built to support you in every pursuit—from work, to play, and everything in between. Featuring a new-and-improved S Pen, a stunning display and a suite of creativity features, these tablets offer a vast canvas for bringing your ideas to life. Powerful processing, an expanded keyboard that is sold separately, and upgraded versions of Samsung DeX allow you to get more work done in less time with a PC-like experience. With ultra-fast 5G connectivity, you can enjoy uninterrupted mobile gaming and high-definition streaming.

The Tab S7 has a 120 Hz TFT screen and a side-mounted fingerprint reader while the Tab S7+ has a 120 Hz AMOLED screen with an in-display fingerprint reader.

Both tablets come with an improved S-pen with only 9ms latency for paper-like feel.  They also support air gestures like the Samsung Galaxy Note 20, which makes a lot more sense on a larger screen. The Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 is only 6.34 mm thick with the Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 + is even thinner at 5.7 mm.

Both tablets are powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 865+ Octa core SoC processor, and feature high-quality cameras and four AKG-tuned speakers with Dolby Atmos support. The large batteries should allow 15-16 hours of uninterrupted use, and the tablets support 45w charging via USB-C, though the bundled charger only offers 15w.

The tablet also comes with a more useful keyboard cover which now offers a trackpad.
