<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>LONDON</strong><strong>, </strong><strong>UK</strong><strong> – 1 </strong><strong>August, 2018</strong> – <strong>Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd</strong>. today announced the <a href="https://www.samsung.com/uk/tablets/galaxy-tabs4-t830/SM-T830NZAABTU/">Samsung Galaxy Tab S4</a>, a new Android tablet designed for people who want to do more on the go—from home to the office and everywhere in between. The Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 delivers an experience that helps you work smarter by keeping you operating at the highest levels. Paired with a polished modern design, an immersive display, quad speakers and enhanced entertainment features, the Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 is the perfect device for those who need something portable like a tablet and capable like a PC.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>“At Samsung, we believe tablets play an increasingly important role in making lives easier and improving the mobile experience for everyone,” said DJ Koh, President and CEO of Samsung Electronics. “With the Galaxy Tab S4, we’re introducing a premium tablet, equipped with Samsung DeX that helps consumers perform their absolute best wherever they go. We look forward to providing our customers with a sense of leisure and comfort knowing that this new addition to our ecosystem of connected devices is also packed with features to help them stay entertained.”</p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Productivity with Samsung DeX and S Pen</strong></p>
<p>With the Galaxy Tab S4, Samsung is bringing Samsung DeX to the tablet for the first time. When connected to the optional Book Cover Keyboard (sold separately) or launched from the Quick Panel, the Galaxy Tab S4 powers on Samsung DeX, giving users the option to switch from the Android interface to a desktop experience. With Samsung DeX, you can open multiple desktop-style windows for your Android apps, including the Microsoft Office suite, directly on the Galaxy Tab S4, and re-size<a href="#_ftn1" name="_ftnref1"><span style="font-size: small;"><sup>[1]</sup></span></a> them when needed. Drag and drop<a href="#_ftn2" name="_ftnref2"><span style="font-size: small;"><sup>[2]</sup></span></a> content between apps and use keyboard shortcuts and commands for efficiency.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>If more screen is needed, there is also an option to extend Samsung DeX to an external monitor with a compatible HDMI to USB-C multi-port adapter (not included). When connected, the Galaxy Tab S4 can serve as a track pad or a sketch pad, and new this year, the Galaxy Tab S4 can continue to work as a fully functional Android tablet, giving users two screens to accomplish tasks.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Whether at the office, at home, or on-the-go, the Galaxy Tab S4 keeps you going with a 7,300mAh battery that provides up to 16 hours of video playback. Additionally, with Samsung Knox, Samsung’s defense-grade mobile security platform, customers and companies can ensure critical information is protected at multiple levels of the device. IT managers can also tailor the employee interface to align with business needs.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Samsung’s enhanced S Pen comes in the box with the Galaxy Tab S4 to satisfy even more productive needs. It offers users a great way to express their creativity and communicate. They can take notes on the fly through the Screen-Off Memo feature, as well as navigate, translate and organize notes through Samsung Notes, and even send personalized texts through Samsung Live Message – all with the S Pen.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>A Screen Fit for Any Job &#8211; or Movie</strong></p>
<p>It’s easier to get more done when you have the right screen. Even the busiest professionals still take time to sit back with a game or movie. Now you can enjoy a more immersive experience on a device you can take anywhere. While similar in size to the Galaxy Tab S3, the Galaxy Tab S4 sports narrower bezels to fit a large 10.5-inch display with Super AMOLED technology, as well as a 16:10 screen ratio with 2560&#215;1600, 287 pixels per inch (PPI) resolution for vivid picture detail and true-to-life visuals. When it comes to audio, the Galaxy Tab S4 also comes with quad speakers tuned by AKG and Dolby Atmos® immersive sound technology, which brings entertainment to life through moving audio that flows all around you. With Dolby Atmos®, the Galaxy Tab S4 supports crisper dialogue, enveloping sound fields, maximized loudness without distortion, and consistent playback volume.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Enhanced Connectivity to Make Your Life Easier </strong></p>
<p>The Galaxy Tab S4 also features new and improved capabilities designed to manage your SmartThings enabled devices and lifestyle. Samsung Flow allows users to manage all of their devices easily by connecting and transferring files, tasks and notifications seamlessly. The SmartThings app on the Galaxy Tab S4 makes it easy to monitor and control your smart home devices right from the tablet. Plus, the Galaxy Tab S4’s Daily Board allows you to view your favorite photos and everyday information such as the weather, calendar and time in one, easy-to-access place.</p>

																<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When it first made its debut on the Galaxy S8, Samsung’s Infinity Display introduced an entirely new framework for smartphone design. The sleek, quad-edge screen epitomized the concept of boundary-pushing innovation, setting new standards for user comfort and immersion by banishing bezels and allowing the phone’s display to elegantly flow over its sides.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The <a href="http://www.samsung.com/uk/smartphones/galaxy-s9/">Galaxy S9 and S9+</a> build on that innovative heritage with enhancements that not only foster captivating visuals, but also truly realistic audio. Let’s take a closer look at how Samsung’s refinements to the devices’ displays and sound systems have made it even easier for users to immerse themselves in their favorite content.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><strong>A Refined Infinity Display</strong></h3>
<p>Both the 5.8-inch<a href="http://www.samsung.com/uk/smartphones/galaxy-s9/"> Galaxy S9 and the 6.2-inch S9+</a> feature Samsung’s latest Super AMOLED Infinity Displays, which feature key refinements that magnify the beauty and immersive qualities of the Galaxy smartphones’ signature screen.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The Infinity Display is characterized by its smooth, spacious design, which seamlessly curves at the edges to blend into the <a href="http://www.samsung.com/uk/smartphones/galaxy-s9/">Galaxy S9’s</a> body and lends the device its beautiful, highly ergonomic form. Films, shows and video clips are captivating when viewed on the 18.5:9, HDR (High Dynamic Range) capable display, whose impeccable accuracy allows such content to be presented exactly as creators intended.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-98393" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/display-of-galaxy-s9_main_1_F.jpg" alt="" width="705" height="308" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>When designing the new displays, <a href="http://www.samsung.com/uk/">Samsung</a> focused on adjustments that would enable users to enjoy even more engrossing viewing experiences. This led <a href="http://www.samsung.com/uk/">Samsung</a> to trim down the already small bezels at the top and bottom of the device, and make the screen itself a deeper black, so as to blend in with the bezels when the device is off. The bezels have also been refined to conceal features that could possibly detract from users’ immersion, such as the device’s iris sensor.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-98394" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/display-of-galaxy-s9_main_2_F.jpg" alt="" width="705" height="378" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Adaptive Contrast Enhancement is another immersion-amplifying addition that allows the display to provide crisp visuals even in direct sunlight. This offers users more freedom to comfortably consume the content they want, when they want<strong>.</strong></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>To make using the device even more comfortable, the <a href="http://www.samsung.com/uk/smartphones/galaxy-s9/">Galaxy S9</a> also introduces a new Landscape Mode, which allows the home screen and app tray to adjust their orientation when the phone is held at an angle. This feature is particularly useful when a user who is watching a video navigates to the home screen to find another app.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-98395" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/display-of-galaxy-s9_main_3_F.jpg" alt="" width="705" height="428" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The durability of the devices’ screens and bodies has also been enhanced. In addition to utilizing a high-strength aluminum alloy that offers protection from external impacts, <a href="http://www.samsung.com/uk/">Samsung</a> reinforced both phones with thicker Corning© Gorilla© Glass 5 on their fronts, as well as more scratch-resistant side metal frames.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><strong>Cinematic Sound</strong></h3>
<p>Because smartphones are increasingly becoming our go-to platforms for entertainment, a top-flight display alone won’t quite cut it. In order to enjoy a truly cinematic mobile viewing experience, we need a premium sound system to complement the display – one that makes it easy for us to immerse ourselves in whatever content we’re consuming.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>To enable users to experience true auditory immersion, <a href="http://www.samsung.com/uk/">Samsung</a> placed powerful, AKG-tuned stereo speakers at the bottom and earpiece of the <a href="http://www.samsung.com/uk/">Galaxy S9</a>. Together, the speakers pump out audio that’s not only loud, but also rich and balanced, no matter the volume.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>This means that whether you’re streaming the latest binge-worthy show or jamming out to a new playlist, you can count on the Galaxy S9 to provide high-quality audio that keeps you engaged and makes your show, song, or podcast that much more enjoyable.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The<a href="http://www.samsung.com/uk/"> Galaxy S9</a> also features a Dolby Atmos effect that gives users listening through headphones or the device’s speakers the sensation that they’re experiencing 360-degree surround sound. The clever feature carefully analyzes how key variables affect the audio in order to create the most immersive sound experience possible.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><img class="alignnone wp-image-98437 size-full" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/display-of-galaxy-s9_main_5_FF.jpg" alt="" width="705" height="433" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The function enriches both Dolby Atmos-exclusive content as well as various other forms of media, and may easily be toggled on or off.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3></h3>
<h3><strong>More Tools to Multitask</strong></h3>
<p>The <a href="http://www.samsung.com/uk/smartphones/galaxy-s9/">Galaxy S9</a> also features an array of useful functions specifically designed to make it easy for users to multitask using the Infinity Display.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Galaxy users are by now long acquainted with Multi-Window, a convenient feature that enables users to simultaneously manage two windows on their screen for increased efficiency. Edge Lighting Notifications add a new layer of utility to this function by allowing users to easily manage incoming messages while enjoying their favorite content.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>With Edge Lighting Notifications, once a message comes in, users are presented with an icon that they may pull down to instantly launch a Multi-Window. This allows them to view their message and compose a reply without needing to navigate away from the website that they were viewing, or falling behind in their movie, show or game.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>That multi-app versatility is also the key benefit of App Pair, a convenient feature that quickly became a fan favourite when it was introduced on the Galaxy Note8. App Pair lets users create custom pairs of apps that they can launch simultaneously from the Edge panel or their home screen. This means that with a single tap, a user could instantly launch their music and navigation apps as they began their morning commute, or open their Internet and messaging apps to coordinate dinner with friends.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The Galaxy S9’s powerful combination of sound and display innovations offers users premium multimedia and multitasking experiences without compromise.</p>
