Another great, more powerful galaxy tab
on September 25, 2025

This is my third flagship galaxy tab and I absolutely love it.
The extra power of the dimensity 9400+ was worth the upgrade; some games are actually allowing higher graphics settings than they did on the previous generations and that has made mobile gaming even better than it already was.
I've run 3dmark benchmarks on the s11 ultra vs devices with the snapdragon 8 elite and a19pro chips and it is on par to slightly beating them in wildlife extreme and steel nomad light, though trailing in raytracing (solar bay extreme).
So far there is not a single game that the s11 ultra can't handle smoothly at maxed out graphics settings.
I will say that the new s-pen is worse but not horrible. The old one felt a little smoother, and of course bluetooth functions in the s-pen are gone. Putting the s-pen spot on the edge of the tablet instead of the back is also a questionable choice because if you have the tablet in a clamp style holder (that clamps at the top and bottom of the screen), you now have nowhere to put the pen at all.
The s11's don't have a haptic motor either, which is kind of inexcusable for a flagship device. It's not the end of the world, but it has me scratching my head a bit.
If it wasn't for the stripped down s-pen and lack of haptics feeling like cost cutting measures, I would have easily given this 5 stars because I absolutely love this tablet, and the extra power brings it closer to its competitors. I would still highly recommend upgrading to the s11 series if you like to play the latest and greatest mobile games, or do any kind of work that can benefit from the extra power. For day to day use, youtube, web browsing, you're not going to notice much of a difference.
I would recommend this to a friend!

“Galaxy AI” for the win!
on October 24, 2025
Posted by: EonDroid
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Upgraded from the galaxy tab 8+, and all I can say is WOW! I'm blown away by all the tech upgrades and advancements, and “Galaxy AI” is nothing short of AMAZING! Amateur photographer and graphic designer here, so i needed something for running Adobe photo editing and design apps, and the S11 ultra just breezes through my toughest jobs with zero lag! I even dabbled in some video editing and was shocked at how fluid the entire process was! Transferring media & files from other devices is a snap! All media gallery apps run smoothly as ever. Editing and exploring the various “Galaxy AI” features is endless and fun! Gaming on this beautiful screen has been the best experience I've ever had on any android device! Streaming my fave shows & hi Def movies through any viewing app has been hassle free, and the large battery ensures I make it through every binge sesh. The camera and it's features are a great upgrade & improvement. The Spen is as handy as ever. I can literally go on and on about the S11 ultra and all the awesome advancements it provides, but getting your hands on one is by far the best way to experience it for yourself. A must buy for anyone needing something for school, work or play. Oh! And I bought the keyboard case to go with it, and it's literally replaced my gaming/work laptop since my S11 ultra arrived! I connected my old Bluetooth wireless mouse and now my poor laptop is just collecting dust. Samsung and “Galaxy AI” are a match made in heaven!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use my tablet for drawing, making music, posting for social media, and editing. This tablet is able to handle all of it with very fluid movements, high quality graphics, different open tabs, the battery life lasts for a very long time, it doesn't drain very quickly, overall an amazing product definitely would recommend buying it

A game changer for teachers and instruction!
on October 3, 2025
Posted by: MrAx2u
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am a 5th grade teacher and this tablet has been a life saver. It's ability to stream to compatible devices has been invaluable. I am able to move around my classroom helping students while doing the lesson "on the go". Our district uses a web application called Kami and combined with the stylus (which is extremely accurate- although not the best battery life), allows me to write math problems, highlight and annotate information in texts as well as run classroom management apps to all while I am moving around the room.
This is a must for any teacher of any grade level. There are some features that do not work with the stylus such as swiping up or sideways, but this is a small inconvenience compared to the benefits of using this device in the classroom.

Disappointing keyboard
on September 13, 2025
Posted by: Jerabatha

I replaced my Tab S9 Ultra with the new Tab S11 Ultra and really like the new tablet. However, the keyboard that came with my new tablet is complete junk. I thought there would be an option for a pro keyboard with trackpad and found out that there's no other options are avaiable. Really considering to send the new tablet back and stick with my S9 Ultra because of the pro keyboard.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Small upgrades, massive downgrades.
on September 22, 2025
Posted by: Lumpia
Expertise:Intermediate
The overall specs of the tablet have indeed improved, and performance has definitely gotten faster! However, that's where the benefits end. The new spen design is indeed nice, but the removal of bluetooth is a bummer. Yes, it was useless 70% of the time, but for a tablet this expensive, we want ALL the futures. And even if bluetooth is removed, the iconic magnetic strip at the back of the tablet is what made samsung convenient and unique. That strip differentiated it from iPads and other tablets, it's samsung's unique mark (and it looks pretty too). As for convenience, its far more secure to have it on the back, along with the case, as opposed to just dangling on the side. Having it attached to the side means a wider case, and again, it just doesn't look as aesthetically pleasing as having it on the back. For future tablets, even if bluetooth stays discontinued, returning the magnetic strip at the back is a must.
