According to media reports, the Galaxy Tab S12 Ultra is expected to feature a flat display with a waterdrop-style notch that could house the front-facing camera for selfies and video calls. The tablet has appeared in black and silver colour options and is expected to support the S Pen stylus. It could also feature a dual rear-camera setup with an LED flash.
Samsung may also have other products lined up around the same period. The company has teased its Android XR glasses for a fall debut, while reports have also pointed to the Galaxy Buds On and a new Galaxy SmartTag. It remains unclear whether these products will be unveiled at a full Unpacked event or through another launch format.
For now, October 7 remains a reported launch date and is not officially confirmed by Samsung.
