If you plan to get work done on a tablet, a bigger screen will make a lot of difference. Samsung’s Galaxy Tab S12 Ultra has a 14.6-inch screen that will get the job done. Right now, you can finish your Galaxy family with $200 off a pair of Galaxy Buds or a Galaxy Watch when you buy the all-new Galaxy Tab S12 Ultra at Samsung through Dec. 6.
The tablet itself costs $1,400, and you’ll need to add the Buds or Watch to the same order to get the discount. Also: The best tablets of 2026: Expert tested and reviewed Galaxy Tab S12 Ultra for $1,200 (save $200), plus $200 off Galaxy Buds 4 Pro or a Galaxy Watch9 The $1,400 price is for the 256GB model with 12GB of RAM, which is the base version of the Tab S12 Ultra. Samsung isn’t taking anything off the tablet with this offer.
Instead, the $200 discount applies to the Galaxy Buds or Galaxy Watch you add to your order. If you were already planning to get one of those to go with your tablet, this will take $200 off that part of your order. The screen on the Galaxy Tab S12 Ultra is an AMOLED panel with a 120Hz refresh rate, and Samsung says it can reach up to 1,600 nits at its brightest.
Samsung has switched to MediaTek’s Dimensity 9500 chip this year, and the company says the CPU is 19% faster than the Tab S11 Ultra’s, with a 17% faster GPU. At 5.1mm, the Tab S12 Ultra is Samsung’s thinnest Galaxy Tab yet, according to the company. Also: The best Samsung tablets you can buy Samsung says the 11,600mAh battery can last up to 23 hours of video playback.
You’ll get the S Pen in the box, and the tablet is rated IP68 for water and dust resistance. Samsung is also promising up to seven Android upgrades, which means you should be able to keep using the Tab S12 Ultra for years. If you want to use the Tab S12 Ultra like a laptop, you’ll have to buy Samsung’s Pro Keyboard separately.
To get the deal, you’ll need to head to the Galaxy Tab S12 Ultra page on Samsung’s site and pick the storage option you want. Once the tablet is in your order, you can add the Galaxy Buds or Galaxy Watch you want, and the $200 discount should show up on eligible models before you check out. You’ll want to add them before you pay, because the discount only applies when the tablet and the Buds or Watch are in the same order.
Note: If you buy the tablet first and decide you want Galaxy Buds or a Galaxy Watch later, you won’t get the $200 off on a separate order. Taxes will be added at checkout. Looking for the next best product?

How I rated this deal I’ve been reviewing phones and tablets for over 13 years at this point, so I know a good deal on one when I see it. Samsung isn’t discounting the tablet itself here, so this deal is worth the most to you if you were already planning to buy Galaxy Buds or a Galaxy Watch with it.
In that case, $200 off is a pretty good saving on a tablet that only went on sale on Oct. 7. You’ll have to pay the full $1,400 for the Tab S12 Ultra, and the $200 won’t help you if you don’t want either accessory. It also looks like Samsung has been running this offer since mid-October.
You’ll still have to pay extra for the Pro Keyboard if you want to work on the tablet like a laptop. That’s why I gave this deal a 2.5/5 Editor’s deal rating. When will this deal expire?
Samsung’s $200 off Galaxy Buds or a Galaxy Watch runs through Dec. 6, 2026, which means it will be live through Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Samsung tends to adjust its tablet offers around those sales, and the details here could change before December.
