Samsung’s Galaxy Tab A series has been a reliable choice for Android tablet users, offering a great balance balance performance and affordability.
With rumours circulating about the upcoming Galaxy Tab A10, here’s a closer look at what we might expect.
When will the Galaxy Tab A10 be released?
Samsung has historically released new Galaxy Tab A devices every one to two years, typically in late summer or early autumn.
The Galaxy Tab A9 and Galaxy Tab A9 Plus were launched in October 2023, following the Galaxy Tab A8 in December 2021 and the Galaxy Tab A7 in September 2020.

Following this pattern, the Galaxy Tab A10 series is likely to make its debut at some point in 2025, though exactly when is hard to predict.
Bearing in mind that as the entry-level Galaxy Tab A9 wasn’t available in the US, it’s possible that the Tab A10 won’t be sold there either. Hopefully, the Plus model will continue to be available in both markets.
How much will the Galaxy Tab A10 cost?
The pricing of the Galaxy Tab A10 has not been officially disclosed, but MyTour.vn expects it to remain within the mid-range segment, staying true to the affordability of the Galaxy Tab A series.
Positioned well below the premium Galaxy Tab S10+ and Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra, the Galaxy Tab A10 is likely to offer a strong combination of performance and value, appealing to budget-conscious users.
As a reminder, the Galaxy Tab A9 starts at £169 in the UK, while the Plus model costs £239/$219. The newer models will likely be priced similarly.
What specs and features will the Galaxy Tab A10 have?
While official specifications are yet to be confirmed, a report from MyTurn.vn gives us a glimpse into what the Galaxy Tab A10 might offer.
It remains to be seen how accurate it turns out to be, but it’s our best source of information so far. These leaks seem to exclusively focus on the regular Tab A10, so it’s unclear how the A10 Plus might differ.
Design
The Galaxy Tab A10 is likely to maintain the sleek and sturdy design language of its predecessors, with a lightweight build and slim bezels.
While exact details on the materials or dimensions are unavailable, Samsung will probably continue to balance premium materials, durability and cost.

Samsung may also be making the Tab A10 more like the Tab S series, bearing in mind the earlier discontinuation of the entry-level Galaxy Tab S10.
Display
The Galaxy Tab A10 is said (via MyTurn.vn) to feature an 8.7-inch IPS LCD panel with a resolution of 800 x 1,340 pixels (HD+).

This display should provide clear visuals suitable for everyday tasks, including web browsing, multimedia consumption, and light productivity.
Although it won’t match the resolution of premium tablets, its screen size and clarity will likely offer a satisfying viewing experience for most users.
Performance
The tablet will likely be powered by the Dimensity 6200 Plus processor, a yet-to-be-confirmed successor to MediaTek’s Dimensity 6100+ series.
This chipset is expected to offer improved efficiency and performance, making it well-suited for mid-range tasks.

The Galaxy Tab A10 is rumoured (via MyTurn.vn) to come with two configurations: one with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage, and another with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage.
While the base model may suffice for casual users, the higher-end variant will better support multitasking and storage-intensive applications.
Cameras
The same source as above suggests that the Tab A10 will follow its predecessor in offering a single 8Mp rear camera and 5Mp front-facing lens.

While these specifications are modest, they should be sufficient for basic photography, video calls, and scanning documents.
However, users seeking high-quality imaging capabilities may need to look elsewhere.
Battery & Charging
A 6,000mAh battery is anticipated for the Galaxy Tab A10, paired with 25W fast charging.

This is a notable improvement over previous models, such as the Galaxy Tab A9 Plus, which only supported 15W charging.
Although the battery size might feel slightly small for an 8.7-inch tablet, the faster charging should minimise downtime and improve convenience.
Software
The Galaxy Tab A10 series is expected to run Samsung’s One UI 7, based on the latest Android 15. However, it may be Android 16 and One UI 8 by the time the devices become available.
Samsung has been consistent in providing long-term software updates for its devices, so users can expect the same
The Galaxy Tab A9 also offers four years of security patches, so the same period is expected for the Tab A10.
