With Google abandoning tablet development and cancelling its future tablet releases, any Android device maker will have to rely on their wits to create suitable workarounds and tools for the operating system to reimagine a coherent, seamless tablet for work and play. Enter the Samsung Galaxy Tab S7+, which is the amalgamation of Android 10 on a tablet with Samsung’s iterative software for productivity and personal use.
In essence, Samsung opted to hard-sell the Galaxy Tab S7+ productivity features. Beneath this 5G-ready tablet is one of the latest flagship-tier processors, a massive five-figure 10,090mAh battery capacity, plus a stunning 120Hz Super AMOLED display paired with four AKG-tuned speakers. The display isn’t just for looks, as it also has an in-display fingerprint sensor. The included S Pen got a huge latency reduction to 9ms for better response times. Multi-Active Window now supports three apps, instead of just two. Samsung Dex now works wirelessly with a Samsung smart TV.
