Samsung Galaxy Tab A11+: Dimensity Power and 90Hz Screen

Samsung has quietly expanded its budget tablet lineup with the Galaxy Tab A11+, a beefed-up version of the Tab A11 that upgrades processing, display smoothness and battery life while keeping an affordable price tag.

What’s changed in the A11+?

The Tab A11+ swaps the original Unisoc chip for a MediaTek Dimensity 7300, bringing improved CPU and GPU performance for gaming, streaming and multitasking. The screen also gets an upgrade: an 11-inch WUXGA (1920×1200) LCD panel with a 90Hz refresh rate for noticeably smoother scrolling and animation. If you use a tablet for media, classes or light productivity, these are the kinds of upgrades you’ll feel day to day.

Key specs at a glance

• Display: 11-inch WUXGA (1920×1200) LCD, 90Hz refresh rate
• Processor: MediaTek Dimensity 7300
• Memory & storage: up to 8GB RAM and 256GB storage, microSD expandable up to 2TB
• Battery: 7,040mAh with 25W fast charging (Samsung rates ~15 hours video playback)
• Cameras: 8MP rear (AF) and 5MP front (optimized for video calls); no LED flash
• Audio & ports: quad speakers with Dolby Atmos, 3.5mm headphone jack
• Connectivity: Wi‑Fi 5, Bluetooth 5.3, GPS and optional 5G
• Software: One UI 8 on Android 16 with Google Gemini integration

Software support that stands out

One of the A11+’s biggest practical advantages is software longevity. Samsung promises seven years of Android version and security updates — matching its flagship policy and ensuring the tablet will receive upgrades through Android 23. For buyers who keep devices longer, that’s a meaningful reassurance.

Battery, cameras and everyday use

The 7,040mAh cell is a step up from the base model and supports 25W fast charging, replacing the slower 15W brick found on the standard Tab A11. Samsung’s 15-hour video playback claim will vary by screen brightness and background tasks, but users should expect multi-day light use or a full day of heavier activity. The camera setup is basic but serviceable for video calls and casual snaps; this is primarily an entertainment and productivity-focused tablet, not a photography device.

Pricing and availability

The Galaxy Tab A11+ is launching in select markets including the UK and Ukraine, with a wider rollout expected in the coming weeks. It comes in Grey and Silver finishes and multiple storage and connectivity options:

• 128GB Wi‑Fi: £249
• 256GB Wi‑Fi: £299
• 128GB 5G: £299
• 256GB 5G: £349

For anyone seeking an affordable tablet with a smoother display, stronger chipset and long-term software support, the Galaxy Tab A11+ is a compelling option. It hits a sweet spot for students, families and casual creators who want better performance without paying flagship prices.
