The Pipino Verdict

The Galaxy Tab S12+ 5G is a premium 12.6-inch Android tablet for people who want laptop-style productivity with DeX and S Pen support, plus a fast Dimensity 9500 chip and a large 10,600 mAh battery. The main trade-off is price: it starts well above US$1,000 and the 5G models cost more again. Based on specs and launch pricing; no hands-on testing yet.
