The Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra is available starting at $1,200.
This 14.6-inch tablet is a productivity powerhouse, packed with a strong processor and Galaxy AI tools perfect for work and play.
The Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra isn’t super portable: it’s large and the keyboard case is expensive and sold separately, and the S Pen stores awkwardly on the back.

As a full-time writer and mom of three, I’m always looking for ways to enhance my productivity. I love having a dependable tablet – for work or entertainment – to take along to my kids’ various activities. Usually, I rely on my iPad – with a reliable keyboard case – for these purposes, but I’ve been testing the Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra–> recently and have some thoughts.

Visually, the Tab S10 Ultra’s design and display have not changed much compared to the previous generation, which I tested last year. Physically, the Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra is so similar to its predecessor that it fits seamlessly into the case I got to protect the S9 Ultra last year. Instead, Samsung focused its efforts on enhancing the tablet’s performance, AI capabilities, and software longevity.
At 14.6 inches, the S10 Ultra is a very large tablet. Its AMOLED 2X display features vibrant colors and supports a 120Hz refresh rate, and the tablet itself is water- and dust-resistant with an IP68 rating. However, the Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra’s imposing frame detracts heavily from the portability factor. While I love a large screen, I can’t say the S10 Ultra is a tablet I’ll take wherever I go, especially without a case.

The tablet doesn’t include a case, which is normal, but the Book Cover Keyboard, Samsung’s official keyboard case, costs $350, with the Slim option costing $200. If you’re looking for a tablet that doubles as a laptop, the added keyboard expense must factor into a decision to buy the S10 Ultra.
Samsung launched the new Galaxy Tab S10 Plus and Ultra tablets with a new processor a few weeks ago, formalizing its breakup with Qualcomm chipsets. The new S10 Ultra tablet has a MediaTek Dimensity 9300+ processor, which Samsung says is best suited for tasks running on artificial intelligence (AI).
