Samsung is expected to introduce its next-generation Galaxy Tab S12 series in the coming months, with the lineup likely to include multiple flagship tablets. Alongside the standard model, the company is reportedly preparing the Galaxy Tab S12+ and Galaxy Tab S12 Ultra as more premium options.

Ahead of an official announcement, alleged CAD-based renders of the Galaxy Tab S12 Ultra and Galaxy Tab S12+ have surfaced online. The leaked images provide an early look at the design of both tablets and show them in two different colour options.

Meanwhile, the Galaxy Tab S12+ is shown with a single rear camera instead of the dual-camera arrangement seen on the Ultra model. Apart from the difference in camera hardware, both tablets appear to maintain a similarly slim and understated design.

Previous reports have also suggested that the Galaxy Tab S12 Ultra could be powered by an octa-core MediaTek Dimensity 9000-series chipset.
