I don’t think tablets can get any better than the Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra. So what’s next for Samsung?

Beyond the Alphabet is a weekly column that focuses on the tech world both inside and out of the confines of Mountain View.

As the resident “tablet guy” around these parts, I’ve seen almost every kind of tablet come across my desk. There are a few exceptions, but none that would be able to match up with Samsung’s flagship tablet lineup.

Since the first Ultra Galaxy Tab was released with the Tab S8 series, I’ve considered the line to be the absolute best that money can buy. And it appears, at least from Brady’s initial impressions, that will continue with the Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra once it’s released.

There’s just something about the almost 15-inch display that draws me in, combined with the premium design, S Pen, and expandable storage. The Tab S11 Ultra checks all of those boxes yet again, managing to get even slimmer than before, while retaining most of the same features as before, save for the move back to a single selfie camera.

Now, a question pops into my head that I haven’t been able to really answer: what can Samsung possibly do next? There are some outside-the-box ideas that come to mind, such as turning it into a foldable device, similar to Lenovo’s ThinkPad X1 Fold, that runs Android.

Perhaps that’s the most logical next move, because I don’t really think Samsung, or any other company, can do anything else that would be considered “ground-breaking.” At least not with keeping the “traditional” slab of glass or aluminum. I mean, the Tab S11 Ultra is just 5.1mm thin, which is 0.3mm thinner than last year’s model, and now matches up with the 13-inch M4 iPad Pro.
