Samsung's Galaxy Tab will be debuting in Indonesia and South Korea, following successful launches in Indonesia and Vietnam.
In the latter half of 2025, Samsung is expected to launch its Galaxy Tab S11 series, with a likely release date around September or October. The series will consist of three models: the Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra, the Galaxy Tab S11, and the more affordable Galaxy Tab S10 Lite, all of which have already been certified in South Korea [1][3][4].
While the exact pricing details for the Galaxy Tab S11 lineup have yet to be revealed, it's anticipated that the premium Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra will carry a high price tag, while the Tab S10 Lite and other mid-tier/entry-level models will be priced more affordably [2][4].
Regarding launch partnerships, no specific collaborations or partnerships related to the Galaxy Tab S11 launch have been publicly disclosed. However, Samsung has mentioned that they plan to accelerate their ecosystem strategy with various new products including XR devices and TriFold devices in 2025 [1]. This suggests Samsung is focusing on building a broader device ecosystem around their new products, but no named partners for the tablet launch are currently confirmed.
Meanwhile, Samsung is also expanding its tablet range with the entry-level Galaxy Tab A11 and possibly a Tab A11+ variant, which might launch soon in markets such as India before the premium Tab S11 series debuts [5].
Elsewhere, the Galaxy Tab is set to launch in Indonesia on October 30th, priced at Rp. 7 million. In Vietnam, the Galaxy Tab is now available, priced at 14,990,000 Vietnamese dong. The Streak tablet, introduced by Dell, is also available in both Indonesia and Vietnam [6].
In South Korea, the Galaxy Tab will run on the Froyo version of Android and is set to launch on November 3. Samsung will partner with SK Telecom for the launch of the Galaxy Tab in South Korea [7]. T-Mobile, on the other hand, will launch the Galaxy Tab on November 10th for $399.99, including a 2-year data plan. Indosat will be the official partner for the Galaxy Tab in Indonesia, offering broadband data services free of cost for six months [8].
It's worth noting that the Galaxy Tab's launch in South Korea was previously delayed to allow for the inclusion of localized applications [9]. The Galaxy Tab will also be offered with various apps pre-installed by T-Mobile, including Kindle for Android, Slacker Radio, Qik Video Chat, and Asphalt HD Demo [10].

Although Samsung is yet to announce any partnerships specifically for the Galaxy Tab S11 series, the tech giant plans to focus on its ecosystem strategy in 2025, potentially introducing new products like XR devices and TriFold devices [1]. On the other hand, as more budget-friendly alternatives, e-readers and other e-gadgets like smartphones and tablets from Samsung, such as the Galaxy Tab A11, may be available before the premium Galaxy Tab S11 series hits the market [5].
