Devices like the Google Pixel Fold and the Pixel Tablet both arrived at the FCC, with the latter revealing the inclusion of UWB (ultra-wideband) support.

This would be about a year and a half after its predecessor, which was announced alongside the Galaxy S22 trio back in February 2022.

Based on what we’ve learned so far, the Galaxy Tab S9+ and the Tab S9 Ultra may not offer significant design improvements, while the Ultra variant is expected to be powered by a special For Galaxy version of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, also found on the Galaxy S23 series.

Furthermore, the Galaxy Tab S9+ would supposedly keep the 12.4-inch 120Hz Super AMOLED screen, while the Ultra model is rumored to retain the 14.6-inch AMOLED display (WQXGA+) from the Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra.
