So where are the upgrades?
Yes, the Tab S9 Ultra is set to be exactly as thin as the Tab S8 Ultra (pictured here).
The Tab S9 Ultra is all but guaranteed to look virtually identical to its predecessor, measuring the exact same 326.4 x 208.6 x 5.5mm while adding just a tiny bit of weight to reach 737 grams. Unfortunately, that’s not going to help boost the battery capacity, although 11,200mAh remains an impressive number, especially when you also consider the blazing fast 45W charging capabilities.
Like its forerunner, the Tab S9 Ultra is set to feature up to a whopping 16 gigs of RAM, but we’ll have to wait and see what other configurations are in the pipeline and how much storage space they’ll carry.
A near-certain upgrade will apparently come in the form of IP68 water and dust resistance certification, which will replace… no such certification on the Tab S8 series.
It’s not entirely clear how something like that will even be physically possible as the Galaxy S23 series, for instance, boasts 100 percent Mobile Color Volume in the DCI-P3 color range, promising “unbelievably vivid colors regardless of differing levels of brightness.” If the Tab S9 Ultra can pull off the leap to 120 percent, we’re guessing the colors will be even more “unbelievably vivid.”
What about the Galaxy Tab S9 and Tab S9 Plus?
This is almost surely how the Galaxy Tab S9+ will look.
The Tab S9, S9+, and S9 Ultra are obviously all set to include a handy S Pen in the box as standard while likely keeping the microSD card slot alive and the headphone jack dead. Everything else is a lot harder to predict for the time being.
