Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra Confirmed to Launch with MediaTek Dimensity 9300+
The Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra has been spotted on Geekbench, revealing its key specs and confirming previous rumors. The listing confirms that the tablet will be powered by MediaTek's Dimensity 9300+ SoC globally.
Key takeaways:
- Both Galaxy Tab S10+ and Ultra to feature Dimensity 9300+: This confirms earlier leaks by Ice Universe, suggesting Samsung's shift towards MediaTek for its flagship tablet lineup.
- Geekbench Scores: The Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra (SM-X926B) achieved a single-core score of 2,141 and a multi-core score of 5,533 in Geekbench 6.3. While the multi-core score is lower than the Galaxy Tab S10+, it is likely due to unoptimized firmware.
- Global Launch with Dimensity 9300+: Samsung typically uses the same SoC in its tablets across regions. Hence, the Geekbench listing indicates a global launch with the Dimensity 9300+.
- Cheaper yet Powerful: The Dimensity 9300+ outperforms the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 for Galaxy in benchmarks and is also more cost-effective. This could mean that the Galaxy Tab S10 series might not see a price hike like the Galaxy Z Fold6.
Samsung's Strategy:
While MediaTek might not have the same brand recognition as Qualcomm, opting for the Dimensity 9300+ allows Samsung to potentially offer a more powerful yet competitively priced tablet.
Looking Ahead:
With a potential launch in October, the Galaxy Tab S10 series is shaping up to be a strong contender in the premium tablet market.
