Samsungs Tab S9 Ultrawas already a giant tablet, sporting a hulking 14.6-inch display.

The S10 Ultra features the thin-bezel design of the previous generation, but it maintains the 14.6-inch screen.
It also contains the AMOLED 2X display as the smaller, 12.4-inch S10+.
Both contain an anti-reflection coating to reduce glare, and I was satisfied with the devices overall look.

The $1,200 Ultra is still enormous.
Its 5.4mm thick compared to the 5.5mm of the S9 Ultra.
Its still a very heavy tablet.

It didnt want to stay put on the plastic stands that Samsung put out at the event.
In hand, the gear demands you rest it against your arm like youre holding an infants head.
Otherwise, it still contains the same 10,090 mAh battery coupled with fast charging up to 45W.

The new Galaxy Tabs still contain the same four-speaker setup as last years big tablets.
This includesCircle to Searchwith homework help, Note Assist, and extra-handy handwriting assist.
I apparently have such awful handwriting that neither Samsung nor Apple can comprehend my words.
