Samsung's new commitment to the world of Android tablets is called Galaxy Tab S7 and S7 +, two tablets with different screen sizes and with features that have very little to envy to the iPad Pro, the greatest exponent worldwide in this market, things as they are, and Cesar, what is Cesar. Although Samsung had come very close to the iPad Pro, it was not until the launch of this new generation that it finally succeeded.
The Galaxy Tab S7 not only integrates the S-Pen (Apple Pencil sold separately) reducing latency up to 9 ms (like the iPad Pro) but also the keyboard (sold separately), integrates a trackpad, which offers us a versatility that until now we could not find in any other tablet managed by Android, but, once again, in the iPad Pro for only a couple of months.
As I always comment when I talk about Samsung, you don't pay for a product, you pay for an ecosystem of products (just like Apple). The different agreements that Samsung has reached with Microsoft, make this tablet into the best option on the market integrated with Windows 10.

Features provided by the manufacturer
Differences between both models
This new generation comes to the market to meet the needs of those who have adopted a tablet as their main work tool. The 11-inch model, Galaxy Tab S7 integrates an LTPS LCD screen, while its older brother, the Galaxy Tab S7 +, its screen reaches 12.4 inches and integrates Super AMOLED technology.
Of course, by implementing the Galaxy Tab S7 + a larger screen size, the battery of this model is larger, going from the 8.000 mAh that we can find in the Galaxy Tab S7 to the 10.090 mAh of the S7 +. With such a large battery capacity size, the Korean company has implemented a 45W fast charging system, which allows us to considerably reduce the loading time of both models.
The last difference between the two devices is found in biometric security. Meanwhile he Galaxy Tab S7 incorporates a fingerprint sensor in the power button, the top model integrates it into below screen. The difference in weight, due to size is obvious, although not very high, since only 77 grams are carried in the basic version.
One aspect that is especially striking in the Galaxy S7 + is its reduced thickness, which measures only 5,7 mm, thus becoming the thinnest tablet on the market. The Tab S7 is 6,3 mm thick. It is as if the Plus model had been stretched to fit the same technology in less space.
Same benefits
Both the Galaxy Tab S7 and the Galaxy Tab S7 + are powered by an 8-core, 84-bit, 7-nanometer processor and are available in versions of 6 GB of RAM and 128 GB and with 8 GB of RAM and 256 GB of storage. Both models have a microSD slot to expand the storage space up to 1 TB.
Newly AKG signs the sound offered by both models through its four speakers (2 on each side) to offer surround sound that is also compatible with Dolby Atmos. Regarding the charging port, we find the USB-C port, but no headphone port.
If we talk about the camera, Samsung, like Apple, wants users to they don't depend on their smartphones solely to take pictures And although the quality that we can obtain with a smartphone we are not going to find it with a tablet, at least they supply it to a great extent. Both models integrate a 13 MP main camera accompanied by a 5 MP wide angle. On the front, both models integrate an 8 MP camera.
Wireless connectivity
Being Samsung one of the standard bearers of 5G technology on smartphones, this tablet could not not confirm it. Samsung will launch 3 different models:
- WiFi connection
- 4G LTE + Wi-Fi connection
- 5G connection
No tablet today, not even the iPad Pro, offers any model with a 5G connection, becoming the Galaxy Tab S7 and S7 + in the first tablet on the market to offer it.
