FULL STORY
======================================================================

We're getting a host of new iPads this year after a pause in 2023, but 
Samsung has some premium tablets of its own in the pipeline  and a new specs 
leak may have just revealed the most important component in the upcoming 
Galaxy Tab S10 series. 

According to seasoned tipster @UniverseIce , all the tablets in the 2024 
range are going to come packing a MediaTek Dimensity 9300 Plus chipset. This 
would be a slight upgrade on the standard Dimensity 9300 CPU, which was 
announced in May. 

It's something of a surprise because almost all of the previous Galaxy Tab 
slates have run on Qualcomm Snapdragon silicon  the only exception being the 
original Galaxy Tab S from 2014, which had one of Samsung's own Exynos 
processors inside. 

As you'll see from our Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra review , the 2023 tablets 
come with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset inside. While the latest 
Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 appears in the Galaxy S24 series in some regions, Samsung 
has apparently decided against it for its tablets, most probably to keep 
costs down. Power to the people It has been confirmed that the Galaxy Tab S10 
series will all use the MediaTek Dimensity 9300+ chip. July 18, 2024 

While Qualcomm chips are widely regarded to beat out MediaTek and Exynos in 
raw performance terms most of the time, according to the source of this leak 
the MediaTek Dimensity 9300 Plus remains a "very good performer." 

In benchmarks on the web , the Mediatek chip actually comes out slightly 
ahead in certain categories, though synthetic benchmarks don't always tell 
the full story when it comes to real-world performance inside actual devices. 

It brings up the perennial question  often asked in relation to Apple's most 
expensive iPads  of how much power a tablet really needs. The Galaxy Tab S10 
series may switch from Snapdragon, but they'll still be very speedy tablets. 

As for when we might see these devices  most probably the Tab S10, the Tab 
S10 Plus, and the Tab S10 Ultra  they should show up soon, considering their 
predecessors were unveiled in August 2023 . Watch this space. You might also
