																<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p>Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. today unveiled the <strong>Galaxy Tab S12 series</strong>, Galaxy Tab S12 Ultra and Tab S12+, delivering Samsung’s most capable and versatile tablet experience yet. <strong>Packing breakthrough performance, long-lasting battery life, and the latest Galaxy AI</strong><sup data-fn="5903cd53-151b-4e55-952a-b7f0880afe65" class="fn"><a href="#5903cd53-151b-4e55-952a-b7f0880afe65" id="5903cd53-151b-4e55-952a-b7f0880afe65-link">1</a></sup><strong> into Galaxy Tab’s signature ultra-thin design, the new lineup turns complex workflows into effortless, everyday achievements </strong>whether it’s mastering skills, pursuing career goals or exploring creative passions.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img width="1000" height="662" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/uk/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/01094229/Samsung-Mobile-Galaxy-Tab-S12-Series_Main1.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-26205" /></figure>



<p>Galaxy Tab S12 Ultra and Tab S12+ feature immersive displays and come bundled with the ergonomically designed S Pen for effortless note-taking and precise editing. With easy access to professional-grade apps and versatile accessories, users can pursue their passions and progress toward their goals with ease. Combining portability with professional-grade power, the Galaxy Tab S12 series gives users instant access to powerful capabilities whenever inspiration strikes.</p>



<p>“The Galaxy Tab S12 series is designed for people who are constantly exploring new ideas, developing new skills and bringing their ambitions to life,” said Jay Kim, Executive Vice President and Head of Customer Experience Office, Mobile eXperience (MX) Business at Samsung Electronics. “Built with industry-leading hardware, the Galaxy Tab S12 series pairs an expansive screen with the power of Galaxy AI, removing friction from complex tasks so users can stay focused on achieving impactful results.”</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Peak Performance in an Ultra-Thin Design</h2>



<p>The Galaxy Tab S12 series combines powerful performance and long-lasting battery life into a thin and light design, making it easy for users to achieve more, wherever ambition takes them. At a remarkably slim 5.1mm, Galaxy Tab S12 Ultra is Samsung’s thinnest Galaxy Tab, while delivering the most powerful performance of any Galaxy Tab to date, supporting productive use throughout the day. For example, users taking an online course alongside a full-time job can catch up on a lesson during the commute, then work through course exercises on the large screen at a café or library later in the day.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img width="1000" height="562" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/uk/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/30130429/Thin-and-light-1-1000x562.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-26167" /></figure>



<p>Both models are built to go the distance, allowing users to keep going without losing momentum. On a single charge, Galaxy Tab S12 Ultra supports up to 23 hours of video playback, and Galaxy Tab S12+ supports up to 21 hours video playback<sup data-fn="cebe3e09-cde6-49d7-9963-e4514bc9d0f4" class="fn"><a href="#cebe3e09-cde6-49d7-9963-e4514bc9d0f4" id="cebe3e09-cde6-49d7-9963-e4514bc9d0f4-link">2</a></sup>, supporting long stretches of productivity anywhere. When it is time to recharge, the battery goes from 0% to 100% in about 95 minutes, minimising downtime so users can get back to what they were doing<sup data-fn="aec7436a-32d5-4e03-9ddf-96f01cbe7849" class="fn"><a href="#aec7436a-32d5-4e03-9ddf-96f01cbe7849" id="aec7436a-32d5-4e03-9ddf-96f01cbe7849-link">3</a></sup>.</p>



<p>Beyond long-lasting battery life, the Galaxy Tab S12 series delivers the most powerful performance of any Galaxy Tab to date, keeping pace with even intensive tasks. The cutting-edge 3nm processor delivers up to 61% faster NPU processing, 19% faster CPU performance and 17% improved GPU power compared to Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra<sup data-fn="7968df99-a2a6-4fdb-8403-85dee9473037" class="fn"><a href="#7968df99-a2a6-4fdb-8403-85dee9473037" id="7968df99-a2a6-4fdb-8403-85dee9473037-link">4</a></sup>. In everyday use, that means users can take on more demanding tasks with increased speed and responsiveness. Whether rendering complex creative projects or watching a lecture while taking notes and asking AI for clarification, the experience stays responsive and fast with fewer interruptions to break their focus.</p>



<p>A newly designed <strong>3D Vapor Chamber</strong> efficiently dissipates heat to support more reliable performance during demanding tasks, whether users are editing video or designing graphics for hours<sup data-fn="3fc08406-fca4-4fe8-9d36-fb8b939ef3f9" class="fn"><a href="#3fc08406-fca4-4fe8-9d36-fb8b939ef3f9" id="3fc08406-fca4-4fe8-9d36-fb8b939ef3f9-link">5</a></sup>. Engineered for resilience and durability to withstand the elements and give users peace of mind, the Galaxy Tab S12 series also comes with <strong>IP68-rated water and dust resistance</strong><sup data-fn="f0933495-5124-4148-badd-e302e465cb88" class="fn"><a href="#f0933495-5124-4148-badd-e302e465cb88" id="f0933495-5124-4148-badd-e302e465cb88-link">6</a></sup>.</p>



<p>The Galaxy Tab S12 series comes with an expansive screen designed to help users think bigger and give ideas more room to unfold. Galaxy Tab S12 Ultra features a large 14.6-inch display, making it easy to explore complex topics and keep multiple perspectives in view. The Galaxy Tab S12+ features a larger 12.6-inch display and slimmer bezels than its predecessor, offering more screen space without sacrificing portability. Both models feature <strong>Dynamic AMOLED 2X</strong> displays reaching up to 1,600 nits of peak brightness<sup data-fn="6d2d8a07-0c00-48a3-b52e-c6af2682130d" class="fn"><a href="#6d2d8a07-0c00-48a3-b52e-c6af2682130d" id="6d2d8a07-0c00-48a3-b52e-c6af2682130d-link">7</a></sup>, delivering the best visual quality of any Galaxy Tab yet<sup data-fn="14175a32-842e-44af-bcde-fa0eca34afad" class="fn"><a href="#14175a32-842e-44af-bcde-fa0eca34afad" id="14175a32-842e-44af-bcde-fa0eca34afad-link">8</a></sup>. The upgraded seamless <strong>Vision Booster</strong> now adjusts brightness in real time based on lighting conditions for comfortable viewing.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img width="1000" height="562" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/uk/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/30130436/Display-1000x562.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-26168" /></figure>



<p>Sound gets a major upgrade as well, with <strong>4-channel spatial audio</strong> — twice as many channels as the previous generation — delivering a richer, more immersive experience whether users are streaming content, following a tutorial or editing.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Making Everyday Tasks More Intuitive and Effortless</h2>



<p>Building on an industry-leading hardware foundation, the Galaxy Tab S12 series turns its large screen into a flexible workspace that makes it easy to keep up with different tasks without missing a beat. Running Android 17 with <strong>One UI 9 </strong>and the<strong> latest Galaxy AI</strong>, it brings research, note-taking, creation and AI assistance into one place, giving users more freedom to explore new ideas, capture what matters and put what they learn into practice.</p>



<p>Thanks to the Galaxy Tab S12 series’ immersive screen, users can split the screen into up to three sections in <strong>Multi Window</strong> layout. For example, users can take notes in <strong>Samsung Notes</strong> on one side while playing a lecture and opening an AI assistant on the other. As key takeaways or questions come up, users can capture them with the <strong>S Pen</strong> directly in Samsung Notes, while <strong>Note Assist</strong><sup data-fn="80ce7eae-da69-401b-af1c-3623249477f7" class="fn"><a href="#80ce7eae-da69-401b-af1c-3623249477f7" id="80ce7eae-da69-401b-af1c-3623249477f7-link">9</a></sup> summarises their notes – all without pausing the lecture.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1000" height="562" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/uk/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/30130445/S-Pen-1000x562.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-26169" /></figure>



<p>Both models come bundled with an ergonomic S Pen, offering precise, intuitive input for note-taking, annotating materials, and sketching concepts. For a more structured, professional workstation, <strong>the Pro Keyboard</strong> elevates productivity with a premium aluminum finish and a <strong>Galaxy AI Key</strong> that enables instant access to AI assistants, while <strong>the Book Cover Keyboard Slim</strong> delivers flexibility with comfortable viewing angles and an effortless typing experience<sup data-fn="7112c94c-aab8-4202-9186-55510a31e726" class="fn"><a href="#7112c94c-aab8-4202-9186-55510a31e726" id="7112c94c-aab8-4202-9186-55510a31e726-link">10</a></sup>.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1000" height="562" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/uk/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/30130450/Pro-Keyboard-1000x562.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-26170" /></figure>



<p>The Galaxy Tab S12 series helps users bring information together and get real-time support the moment curiosity strikes. The Galaxy Tab S12 series comes equipped with a six-month trial of <strong>Google AI Pro</strong><sup data-fn="583c2df4-6711-4296-a1f8-ded304c37dbc" class="fn"><a href="#583c2df4-6711-4296-a1f8-ded304c37dbc" id="583c2df4-6711-4296-a1f8-ded304c37dbc-link">11</a></sup>, providing expanded access to Google’s most capable AI models from day one. Users can ask <strong>Gemini</strong> about anything unclear or dive deeper into subjects they want to explore the moment a question comes up. With <strong>Gemini Notebook</strong>, users can bring together notes, images, recordings, and files in one workspace and create summaries, podcasts, and even quizzes to make key information easier to understand.</p>



<p>As exploration expands into deeper research, <strong>Samsung Browser</strong> helps users stay focused without losing track of what they have already discovered. By understanding webpage content, context across multiple tabs, and browsing history, it can summarise information across open pages or surface a relevant source viewed days earlier – helping users spend less time searching through past tabs and more time capturing the key insights that matter most<sup data-fn="07083527-1e4b-4458-a13c-f0dbdae4fc6b" class="fn"><a href="#07083527-1e4b-4458-a13c-f0dbdae4fc6b" id="07083527-1e4b-4458-a13c-f0dbdae4fc6b-link">12</a></sup>.</p>

																<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Samsung users may have noticed something new on their Galaxy Z foldables — the <strong>Warranty and care</strong> menu.</p>
<p>Managing warranties and coverage for a Galaxy mobile phone, Galaxy Watch, Galaxy Buds, and Galaxy Tab can be a hassle. That’s where Warranty and care comes in. Introduced with <strong>One UI 9</strong>, it brings essential device management features together in one place, letting users check warranty status, run diagnostics, book repairs, and get support in just a few taps — all without leaving Settings.</p>
<p>Here’s a closer look at what Warranty and care, available with One UI 9 on Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra, Galaxy Z Fold8, and Galaxy Z Flip8 offers.</p>
<h2><strong>Check Warranty Status Across Galaxy Devices</strong></h2>
<p>Keeping track of warranty periods and expiration dates across Galaxy devices isn’t always easy. Warranty and care consolidates this information in a single hub.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-25673" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/uk/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/001-Warranty-and-care-Menu-Simplifies-Device-Care-for-New-Foldables-Newsbody-e1787007802734.jpg" alt="" width="1001" height="699" /></p>
<p><div id="attachment_25674" style="width: 1011px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img loading="lazy" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-25674" class="size-full wp-image-25674" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/uk/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/002-Warranty-and-care-Menu-Simplifies-Device-Care-for-New-Foldables-Newsbody-e1787007845233.jpg" alt="" width="1001" height="699" /><p id="caption-attachment-25674" class="wp-caption-text">▲ Access Warranty and care instantly from Settings.</p></div></p>
<p>Available in Settings, Warranty and care displays information about the device in use at the top of the screen — including remaining warranty period and eligibility for <span><a href="https://www.samsung.com/sec/samsung-care-plus/im/"><strong>Samsung Care+</strong></a></span> enrollment.<a href="#_edn1" name="_ednref1"><span><span style="font-size: small"><sup>[1]</sup></span></span></a> Below, users can find the same details for other Galaxy devices linked to their Samsung account, making it easy to check warranty and coverage status across their Galaxy ecosystem.</p>
<p>For added protection beyond the standard warranty, users can easily explore and enroll in a Samsung Care+ plan that matches their needs.</p>
<h2><strong>Resolve Device Issues With Diagnostics and Bixby</strong></h2>
<p>When something doesn’t feel quite right, quickly finding out what’s wrong can make all the difference. The built-in <strong>Diagnostics</strong> feature checks the device — including its battery, charging, sensors, touch response, and connectivity — to help pinpoint the issue and guide users to the next step, whether that’s a suggested solution or a repair request.</p>
<p><div id="attachment_25675" style="width: 1011px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img loading="lazy" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-25675" class="wp-image-25675" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/uk/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/003-Warranty-and-care-Menu-Simplifies-Device-Care-for-New-Foldables-Newsbody.jpg" alt="" width="1001" height="699" /><p id="caption-attachment-25675" class="wp-caption-text">▲ Bixby offers customized responses to your inquiries.</p></div></p>
<p>Users can also access <strong>Bixby</strong><a href="#_edn2" name="_ednref2"><span><span style="font-size: small"><sup>[2]</sup></span></span></a> from Warranty and care to ask about an issue and get help on the spot. For example, if a user asks, “My battery is draining too fast. What should I do?” Bixby can walk them through possible solutions step by step. It’s a convenient way to get answers to everyday questions without switching screens.</p>
<h2><strong>Book Repairs and Check Estimated Costs in One Place</strong></h2>
<p>When professional help is needed, users can tap “Request a repair” to book a repair at a <strong>Samsung-authorised service center</strong> without having to make phone calls. All repairs are carried out by Samsung-certified technicians using genuine parts. If users are unable to visit a service center, they can start remote support from the same screen and get help directly on their device.</p>
<p>Warranty and care also makes device care service information easy to check. After selecting an issue, users can view estimated repair costs<a href="#_edn3" name="_ednref3"><span><span style="font-size: small"><sup>[3]</sup></span></span></a> for major parts alongside the cost of the same repair with Samsung Care+. This helps users see cost information in one place and helps them understand the available service and protection options at the moment they need them.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone wp-image-25676" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/uk/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/004-Warranty-and-care-Menu-Simplifies-Device-Care-for-New-Foldables-Newsbody.jpg" alt="" width="1001" height="699" /></p>
<p><div id="attachment_25677" style="width: 1011px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img loading="lazy" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-25677" class="wp-image-25677" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/uk/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/005-Warranty-and-care-Menu-Simplifies-Device-Care-for-New-Foldables-Newsbody.jpg" alt="" width="1001" height="699" /><p id="caption-attachment-25677" class="wp-caption-text">▲ Repair estimates on main parts can also be verified.</p></div></p>
<h2><strong>Protect Device Value for the Long Term</strong></h2>
<p>By bringing warranty information, diagnostics, support and repair services together, Warranty and care gives Galaxy users a simpler way to manage their devices for greater peace of mind. Checking the feature during setup makes it easier to know where to turn if an issue comes up later — from running diagnostics and asking Bixby or a chatbot for help to requesting a repair. With these essential services close at hand, users can keep their devices in good condition for longer and help preserve their value.</p>

</div>
<p>For peace of mind today and lasting value tomorrow, Galaxy devices are supported by professional care at nearby Samsung-authorised service centers, both at home and abroad.</p>

																<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. today announced the One UI 9 beta program, launching this week beginning with the Galaxy S26 series. Built on the new Android 17, One UI 9 beta delivers expanded creative tools, customisation options, a more accessible mobile experience and stronger protection against potential security threats.</p>
<p>The full experience of One UI 9 will be introduced with upcoming Galaxy flagship devices later this year, which will include advanced AI features that will make mobile interaction easy and effortless.</p>
<h3>What’s New in One UI 9 Beta</h3>
<p><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-24498" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/uk/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/Samsung-Mobile-One-UI-9-Beta-Galaxy-S26-series_main1.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="560" /></p>
<p>One UI 9 beta introduces several updates across key areas of the mobile experience.</p>
<p>Samsung Notes<a href="#_edn1" name="_ednref1"><span><span style="font-size: small"><sup>[1]</sup></span></span></a> gains creative new tools, including decorative tapes and a wider variety of pen line styles. Meanwhile, the Contacts app now offers direct access to Creative Studio<a href="#_edn2" name="_ednref2"><span><span style="font-size: small"><sup>[2]</sup></span></span></a> for creating personalised profile cards without the need to switch between apps.</p>
<p>The updated Quick Panel<a href="#_edn3" name="_ednref3"><span><span style="font-size: small"><sup>[3]</sup></span></span></a> gives users greater control over its layout. Brightness, sound and media player are each independently adjustable, with more size options to suit individual preferences.</p>
<p>Accessibility is significantly improved by an adjustable Mouse Key speed that enables smoother cursor control and a combined TalkBack package that brings together features previously offered separately by Google and Samsung. The new Text Spotlight feature — which displays selected text larger or more clearly in a floating window — has also been added to make reading easier.</p>
<p>One UI 9 also introduces enhanced protection against suspicious apps and potential threats: when new high-risk apps are detected, it now warns users, blocks execution and installation, and recommends deletion through security policy updates<a href="#_edn4" name="_ednref4"><span><span style="font-size: small"><sup>[4]</sup></span></span></a>.</p>
<h3>Availability</h3>
<p>The One UI 9 beta program will be available to Galaxy S26 series users in select markets, including the U.K. starting this week. Galaxy S26 series users can apply to join the beta program via the Samsung Members app.</p>
<p><em><span style="font-size: small"><a href="#_ednref1" name="_edn1"><span>[1]</span></a> Service availability may vary by region/country, OS/One UI version, device model and phone carrier.</span></em></p>
<p><em><span style="font-size: small"><a href="#_ednref2" name="_edn2"><span>[2]</span></a> Requires Creative Studio app installation. Creative Studio feature requires a network connection and Samsung Account login. Service availability may vary by country, language or device model. The accuracy and reliability of the generated output is not guaranteed. Sticker can only be shared with other Galaxy devices.</span></em></p>
<p><em><span style="font-size: small"><a href="#_ednref3" name="_edn3"><span>[3]</span></a> Certain settings might be greyed out or will not appear if the feature is turned off.</span></em></p>
<p><em><span style="font-size: small"><a href="#_ednref4" name="_edn1"><span>[4]</span></a> Samsung’s security policy updates are designed to improve device security through service operation policy changes and may include updates to list of potential high-risk apps according to Samsung’s internal assessment.</span></em></p>
