Verified Facts
Images attributed to Evan Blass circulated online and show two distinct tablet designs. According to the shared renders, Samsung is expected to ship a standard Tab S11 with an approximately 11-inch screen and a Tab S11 Ultra with a 14.6-inch display. The Ultra render displays a notably smaller front-area notch compared with last year’s Ultra, while the standard model keeps a thicker, uninterrupted bezel.
The leaked marketing material highlights several on-device AI functions. Gemini Live is shown as a contextual assistant that can answer questions about on-screen content. The materials also depict a text-to-image generator, an AI writing assistant and an “Object Eraser” photo tool for removing unwanted elements from images.
An accessory render shows a keyboard cover with an AI-dedicated key that launches Gemini and a rear slot designed to hold the S Pen, similar to previous Samsung tablet covers. The keyboard appears to be sold separately.
Earlier performance leaks for the Tab S11 Ultra claim a substantial uplift over the prior model: a 24% CPU improvement, 27% faster GPU and a 33% faster NPU. These figures have been reported by leakers but remain subject to official confirmation at launch.
| Model | Storage | Reported Price (USD) |
|---|---|---|
| Galaxy Tab S11 | 256 GB | $860 |
| Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra | 256 GB | $1,200 |
| Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra | 512 GB | $1,400 |
| Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra | 1 TB | $1,700 |
Context & Impact
Samsung’s tablet lineup has shifted cadence in recent years, alternating between standard, Plus and Ultra tiers. The apparent decision to drop a Plus model and return with just base and Ultra variants narrows choices but may streamline Samsung’s product messaging for the holiday selling season.
If the AI features shown in the leaks ship as advertised, Samsung is continuing its focus on integrated generative AI tools across phones and tablets, which could raise the platform’s appeal for creators and productivity users who value on-device assistance.
From a price perspective, the leaked tags place the S11 family solidly in the premium tier for Android slates. That positioning will put Samsung in direct competition with Apple’s iPad Pro line and other high-end Android competitors, making final specifications and real-world performance key for buyer decisions.
Official Statements
Samsung has not publicly confirmed the leaked images and details as of the publication time.

Bottom Line
The late leak gives a comprehensive preview of Samsung’s Galaxy Tab S11 ambitions — a two-model approach, larger Ultra display, and deeper AI features — but several important details, especially pricing and final performance, remain unverified until Samsung’s Sept. 4 Unpacked announcement.
