Samsung officially confirms Galaxy Tab S12 series is coming
Samsung said the new tablet family is part of a broader premium launch plan as it works to sustain mobile sales momentum.
- During its Q2 2026 earnings call, Samsung confirmed the Galaxy Tab S12 series will launch in the second half of the year, alongside the Galaxy S26 Fan Edition.
- This release aligns with Samsung's established cadence of launching new flagship Galaxy Tab models during the second half of each year, a trend dating to the Galaxy Tab S11 series nearly a year ago.
- Daniel Araujo, Samsung vice president of strategic planning for Mobile Experience, warned that rising component costs and memory shortages could pressure pricing and profitability throughout the second half of the year.
- To maintain sales momentum, Samsung is prioritizing premium product launches, including new foldables and the Galaxy Watch Ultra, to offset financial pressures from the component shortage.
- Samsung expects memory shortages to persist through 2028, warning that demand is running far ahead of supply and forcing unfulfilled orders into next year.
