Together, the series is built for effortless productivity on the go, combining pro-grade hardware with experiences optimized for a large screen.

Powering Everyday Tasks with Advanced AI 

With One UI 8, the Galaxy Tab S11 series brings multimodal AI to the forefront – understanding what users type, say and see, and responding in real time with helpful suggestions, these tools unlock a more fluid way to work, create and stay in flow across any task.

-- Gemini Live enables real-time screen sharing and visual input, so users can have a natural conversation with Gemini about what they’re looking at. Whether it’s on-screen content or an object that someone wants to show by pointing the camera at it – Gemini Live can handle contextual questions and requests by seeing what the user sees. For instance, a user in a class can easily screen share their notes, then ask Gemini to interpret a chart or explain the study material and summarize its insights.

-- By pressing and holding the side button, users can activate Gemini and carry out commands across apps with a single command. For instance, when there’s no time to read a lengthy article, users can share the link with Gemini and say, “Summarize this article and save it to Samsung Notes,” making it easier to catch up later. It simplifies complex actions so users can stay in their flow. 

The Galaxy Tab S11 series is packed with additional tools for effortless productivity and creativity – including the full suite of Galaxy AI features, optimized for the large screen.

-- Users can turn rough sketches into clean visuals with Drawing Assist, then drag and drop images they’ve created into Samsung Notes as a starting point for further ideation – perfect for brainstorming, visual planning or creative exploration.

-- Writing Assist helps rework tone and style, so users can easily refine a piece of writing to ensure it matches their intended meaning before dropping it into an email, document or other apps.

--While multitasking, users can keep Galaxy AI close at hand as a moveable and compact overlay, presented in a floating view, allowing them to summarize the content on their screen without breaking focus.

-- Circle to Search with Google is now even more helpful for getting context and diving deeper into anything users see on their device's screen. Users are able to translate text in real-time as they scroll and interact. From news articles to social media posts, users will see instant, on-screen translations of the underlying text in their preferred language.

The Galaxy Tab S11 series comes with the newly redesigned S Pen that’s built for both focused work and creative expression. Its new cone-shaped pen tip supports increased tilt angles for better control, while a hexagonal design provides a more natural, ergonomic feel that’s comfortable and stable in the hand. Quick Tools make it easy to adjust on the fly while drawing or editing with floating access, while Sticky Note lets users capture sudden thoughts or to-dos directly over Samsung Notes – no more app switching required during document review.

Full-Scale Productivity

Whether you’re a designer building out visual concepts or a frequent traveler planning a trip across apps and displays, the Galaxy Tab S11 series features support every step, from researching and sketching to sharing polished results.

The latest Samsung DeX upgrades unlock next-level productivity, starting with Extended Mode, which transforms Galaxy Tab S11 and an external monitor into a seamless dual-screen setup. It runs Samsung DeX across both screens simultaneously for more intuitive multitasking and greater flexibility – now users can drag and drop apps between displays or reference a document on one screen while presenting on the other. Also new to Samsung DeX, users can now create up to four separate, customized workspaces for different needs. For example, one workspace can be dedicated for work, another to creative projects and a third to planning a trip. 

Made to Perform, Built to Move

Additionally, a powerful battery and efficient thermal management ensure reliable, long-lasting use for work, creativity and everything in between.

Performance matched by purposeful design reflects Samsung’s hardware innovation – delivering ultra-thin and light, yet powerful devices ready for everyday versatility. Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra features a remarkably slim build at just 5.1 mm, with narrow 5.2 mm bezels that expand screen space without compromising portability. Across both models, Dynamic AMOLED 2X displays deliver up to 1600 nits of peak brightness, ensuring clear, vivid visuals indoors or out, so users can stay focused wherever they work.

Tools That Fit the Way Users Work

There is easy access to Goodnotes, Clip Studio Paint, LumaFusion and Notion – supporting everything from sketching and note-taking to flexible project planning.

As someone who relies heavily on fast and reliable internet to stream Netflix, listen to Spotify, write articles, and create content on social media, having a solid internet connection is non-negotiable. Being a travel writer and content creator, my work is primarily online, which makes speed and consistency essential.

Recently, I discovered DITO Home WOWFi—the first-ever 5G RedCap technology Wi-Fi for homes, and I was lucky enough to attend its exciting launch at Ascott Bonifacio Global City. The event brought together media members, influencers, and DITO Telecommunity Corporation executives to introduce this breakthrough in home internet.

What Makes DITO Home WOWFi a Game-Changer?

DITO Telecommunity, the fastest-growing telco provider in the Philippines, has partnered with Huawei Technologies, a global leader in 5G deployment, to bring DITO Home WOWFi to Filipino households. This new product is powered by DITO’s Standalone 5G (SA) network—offering true 5G technology with fast and stable speeds of up to 100 Mbps. Now, more Filipinos can access fast, affordable, and unlimited home internet.

Evelyn Jimenez, DITO’s Chief Revenue Officer for Consumer Business, emphasized that DITO Home WOWFi aims to disrupt the current market by offering an internet solution that eliminates compromises.

"In reality, the current internet options of Filipino households are quite limiting. You can get fast and unlimited Wi-Fi, but it won't be cheap; you can get fast and affordable but not unlimited, and you can get affordable and unlimited, but it won't be fast– this is the reality we live in. As the third telco committed to enhancing the lives of the Filipino people, we want to change the norm and disrupt the market by giving Filipinos the home internet they deserve– fast, unlimited, and affordable."  Jimenez said. 

"With DITO Home WOWFi, we want to jolt Filipinos out of their old ways of dealing with their internet at home; our goal is to give them a life-changing home Wi-Fi that lets them live big and never lets them down, especially in this age of digitalization and technological advancements," Jimenez added. 

What is 5G RedCap Technology?

5G RedCap, also known as NR-Light, is an advanced 5G technology that operates exclusively on Standalone (SA) networks, unlike traditional Non-Standalone (NSA) 5G that relies on existing 4G infrastructure. This cutting-edge technology offers high capacity, better quality, and low latency—perfect for smart home applications and the Internet of Things (IoT).

"5G RedCap is a new addition to the 5G family, offering the right balance of 5G capabilities. It is the kind of technology that provides all the benefits of 5G, such as low latency, high peak data rate, maximum capacity, without the need for high bandwidth," said Huawei Technologies.  

While 5G RedCap is typically reserved for industrial use globally, DITO has taken the lead by making it available for Filipino homes, delivering an unparalleled internet experience that supports the growth of the digital economy.

A Hassle-Free, Plug-and-Play Experience

DITO Home WOWFi takes convenience to the next level with easy, wireless installation. Forget the hassle of fiber cables—just plug and play! Whether you're working remotely, attending online classes, or connecting with loved ones, this Wi-Fi solution gets you online instantly.

It’s especially ideal for underserved areas where wired connections are challenging to install, bridging the digital divide and making reliable internet accessible to more households.

Affordable Prepaid Plans, No Contracts

One of the best things about DITO Home WOWFi is its prepaid service model—no documents, no lock-in contracts, and no monthly fees. The Starter Kit is priced at Php 1,990, which includes unlimited 5G data plus 50GB of 4G data valid for 30 days.

After the initial month, you can continue enjoying unlimited 5G for only Php 790 per month, with an additional 50GB 4G data for areas with limited 5G coverage.

Where to Get DITO Home WOWFi

DITO Home WOWFi is available through:

DITO e-Shop

DITO Experience Stores

Official stores on Shopee, Lazada, and TikTok

DITO retail partners and sales events

A Smart Investment for Every Filipino Home

With DITO Home WOWFi, you can say goodbye to unreliable internet and hello to ultra-fast, affordable, and easy-to-use Wi-Fi. As DITO continues to roll out this world-first 5G RedCap technology for home use, more Filipinos will have access to a powerful internet experience that enhances their day-to-day lives.

Whether you’re working from home, binge-watching your favorite shows, or connecting with family and friends, DITO Home WOWFi ensures that you stay online without interruptions.
