Samsung’s Galaxy Tab S12 Leak Hints at Major Upgrades—and New Galaxy Watch Companions

Samsung is quietly laying the groundwork for its next wave of premium devices, with new registrations pointing to upcoming Galaxy Watch and Galaxy Tab launches. Recent IMEI database listings suggest the company is preparing four additional products, including a new flagship smartwatch and two high-end tablets expected to arrive later in 2026.

The smartwatch lineup looks especially busy this year. The listings reference two watch model numbers, SM-L345 and SM-L716, which line up with development of the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 alongside the standard Galaxy Watch 9 series. In other words, Samsung appears to be planning both a mainstream refresh and a top-tier “Ultra” option at roughly the same time—an approach that mirrors the growing demand for more rugged, feature-packed wearables with larger batteries, advanced health tracking, and premium materials.

On the tablet side, two new model numbers—SM-X846 and SM-X946—have appeared tied to the Galaxy Tab S12+ and Galaxy Tab S12 Ultra. While this is still an early sign rather than a full reveal, it strongly hints that Samsung’s next tablet lineup will once again focus on the larger “Plus” and “Ultra” sizes. That could also mean there may be no direct replacement for the smaller standard model this generation, continuing a recent trend where Samsung prioritizes big-screen productivity and entertainment tablets at the high end.

If Samsung follows its usual product calendar, the Galaxy Tab S12+ and Galaxy Tab S12 Ultra could arrive in late summer 2026, potentially alongside a new Fan Edition (FE) smartphone. Meanwhile, the Galaxy Watch 9 and Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 are expected to debut earlier in the season, likely at the same Galaxy Unpacked event where Samsung traditionally introduces its newest foldables—suggesting these wearables may share the spotlight with devices such as the Galaxy Z Fold8 and other upcoming foldable phones.

While database sightings don’t confirm specs or exact launch dates, they’re often a reliable early indicator of what’s approaching. For Samsung fans, the takeaway is clear: 2026 is shaping up to be a major year for Galaxy tablets and smartwatches, with a strong emphasis on premium models and flagship-tier upgrades.
