14.6 inch Dynamic AMOLED is the biggest tablet screen worth owning
S Pen included in box with no battery and zero latency feel
Samsung DeX desktop mode rivals a real laptop with the keyboard
IP68 rating means it survives rain and pool deck use
✕ What we don't
Front camera notch in the display still looks odd in landscape
Dimensity 9300 Plus runs warmer than Snapdragon on long gaming sessions
Book Cover Keyboard is sold separately and is expensive
The bottom line Seven months in, the Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra remains the only Android tablet that competes seriously with the iPad Pro. The 14.6 inch Dynamic AMOLED is huge, DeX turns it into a real laptop replacement with a keyboard, and the S Pen ships in the box. Dimensity 9300 Plus is a small step down from Snapdragon but plenty for everything outside heavy gaming. The notch is the only design choice that still feels strange on a tablet.
