Yes, the Tab S11, Tab S11 Ultra, and Tab S10 Lite are all expected (but not quite guaranteed yet) to see daylight in about a month, both on the old continent and in markets like the US.
In European countries like Germany and Spain, the "vanilla" Galaxy Tab S11 is tipped to cost the rough equivalent of $1,050 in an entry-level configuration, although naturally, stateside pricing is unlikely to start higher than $900. Because there's no such device as a Galaxy Tab S10 , this year's Tab S11 will strongly resemble the 2023-released Galaxy Tab S9, keeping the screen size, screen resolution, battery capacity, charging speeds, cameras, and speaker system unchanged while obviously packing a newer and faster processor, as well as more RAM across the board. 14.6-inch AMOLED screen with 2960 x 1848 pixel resolution;

I'm not sure how Samsung is going to do it, but the Tab S11 Ultra will apparently (slightly) improve the battery capacity of its predecessor without increasing the screen size, overall thickness, or weight of the 14.6-inch package.
It might be terribly blurry, but this leaked Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra image tells us a lot about the impending Samsung giant. | Image Credit -- Evan Blass on X Meanwhile, the total number of cameras is expected to go down from four on the Tab S10 Ultra to only two here, which is probably a very smart cost-cutting measure given that... no one really uses the cameras of such a gargantuan tablet anyway. At least not for very sophisticated tasks.
Once again, the European price points sound high, but I believe the Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra is likely to cost just as much as the Tab S10 Ultra in the US and not a penny more. 10.9-inch display with 2112 x 1320 pixel resolution;

€459 - Wi-Fi + 5G + 6GB + 128GB;
€529 - Wi-Fi + 5G + 8GB + 256GB. Do we need a Tab S10 Lite when we already have a Galaxy Tab S10 Fan Edition and a Tab S10 FE Plus? I think we do, because I have reasons to believe this thing will be cheaper than the 10.9-inch Tab S10 FE.
The Tab S10 Lite will probably be cheaper and... less sophisticated than the Tab S10 FE (pictured here). | Image Credit -- PhoneArena
Said reasons include a lower-res screen, humbler chipset, lower entry-level RAM count, less capable cameras, slower charging, and last but not least, a lower starting price rumored for the old continent. The Galaxy Tab S10 FE, in case you're wondering, typically costs €579 and up in countries like Spain, which makes me confident that the Galaxy Tab S10 Lite will start at no more than $350 in the US, thus rivaling Apple's latest "standard" iPad in terms of value for your money.

Another fresh entry level phone came in fourth - the Galaxy A17, while the Apple iPhone 16 Pro Max stepped down to fifth. The Poco F7 was sixth, followed by the Galaxy A36 - these two also losing a position each. Redmi Note 14 Pro 5G retained its eighth spot, followed by the Galaxy S25, which makes a somewhat surprising return to the top 10. Finally, the Poco X7 Pro completes the top 10, meaning that only three makers are represented this time around.

The Android 17 dessert name leaks. Can you guess what it is?
Started as an inside joke at Google, many of you younger Android users might not remember the dessert name given to new Android releases starting with Android 1.5, which was the third build of Android after Android 1.0 and Android 1.1. The dessert names were names of a desert, and since Android 1.5 was the third build of Android, the dessert name started with a "C" since that is the third letter of the alphabet. Every major new Android build was given a dessert name that started with the letter of the alphabet that was next after the previous major Android build. For example, the fourth build of Android, Android 1.6, had the dessert name Donut. The first Android phone owned by many of you older PhoneArena users was the fantastic Motorola DROID. It was the first phone running Android 2.0, which was the fifth major build of Android and had the dessert name of Eclair. The latter started with the letter "E," the next letter in the alphabet after the "D" used for Android 1.6, the previous major Android release. The statue representing the dessert name for Android 5.0, Lollipop. | Image credit-Unknown Surely this should bring back memories. Eclair was the first Android operating system to feature free Google Maps turn-by-turn directions. Google eventually partnered with Nestle, and in 2013, the dessert name for Android 4.4 was KitKat after the well-known chocolate bar. This took Android to promo heaven as 50 million KitKat bars nestled inside a wrapper containing Android branding were released in 19 countries. These wrappers offered prizes such as a free Nexus 7 tablet. Google repeated this with Android 8 and Android 8.1 in 2017. A deal with Nabisco allowed Google to use the world famous Oreo name as an Android dessert moniker. As it did with KitKat, Google took advantage of the popularity of the creme-filled sandwich cookie to promote Android devices among Oreo buyers. Google ended the practice of giving each major new Android release a dessert name after Android 9 was given the Pie desert name in 2018. Since Android 10, Google has kept the tradition alive, but only internally. The practice of using the next letter in the alphabet as the first letter for the selected dessert ended just this year. The internal dessert name for Android 15 in 2024 was Vanilla Ice Cream. By tradition, this year's internal dessert name should have started with a "W." Instead, because Google switched to a trunk-based model to develop new Android builds, Google moved ahead to "B" and selected Baklava as the dessert name for Android 16. Android expert Mishaal Rahman says that with Google returning to the practice of going down the alphabet each year for the first letter of the dessert name, Android 17 will use a dessert name starting with the letter "C." That will be "Cinnamon Bun," according to Rahman, who explains why he is so confident that this is indeed the correct dessert name for Android 17. "A trusted source within Google shared evidence with us that clearly shows the company using "CinnamonBun" as the internal codename for API level 37.0," he said. The Core API level is the name used by developers to distinguish different Android releases as opposed to the marketing names of the operating system, which uses numbers such as Android 15 and Android 16 . Rahman says that you might see Android 17 referred to as "Android CinnamonBun" in beta versions of Android 17. Once the OS hits platform stability and all changes to how the system interacts with apps have been locked in, you can expect Google to refer to the operating system as Android 17. Here's the complete list of Android dessert names from the beginning through this year: Android 1.0-No codename, 2008 Android 1.1-Peiti Four (internal), 2009 Android 1.5-Cupcake, 2009 Android 1.6-Donut, 2009 Android 2.0, 2.1-Eclair, 2009 Android 2.2-Froyo, 2010 Android 2.3-Gingerbread, 2010 Android 3 -Honeycomb (Tablets only), 2011 Android 4-Ice Cream Sandwich,2011 Android 4.1, 4.2, 4.3-Jelly Bean, 2012 Android 4.4-KitKat, 2013 Android 5.0, 5.1-Lollipop, 2014 Android 6-Marshmallow, 2015 Android 7.0, 7.1-Nougat, 2016 Android 8.0, 8.1-Oreo, 2017 Android 9-Pie, 2018 Android 10-Quince Tart (internal), 2019 Android 11-Red Velvet Cake (internal), 2020 Android 12, 12L-Snow Cone (internal), 2021 Android 13-Tiramisu (internal), 2022 Android 14-Upside Down Cake (internal), 2023 Android 15 -Vanilla Ice Cream (internal), 2024 -Vanilla Ice Cream (internal), 2024 Android 16 -Baklava (internal), 2025 Doesn't reading through this list, especially the early years, bring back plenty of memories?

Galaxy S26 Ultra's big ace over predecessor revealed
Galaxy S25 Ultra and S24 Ultra | Image Credit - Phonearena The Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra will reportedly receive a power boost not just from a new-generation chip but also the latest RAM technology. Leaker Ice Universe has revealed that the Galaxy S26 Ultra will feature low-power double data rate 5X (LPDDR5X) memory with a speed of up to 10.7 gigabits per second (Gbps). This component will apparently be sourced from memory producer Micron. The Galaxy S26 Ultra is expected to have faster RAM than the Galaxy S25 Ultra. The Galaxy S25 Ultra , like most top Android phones powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon Elite Mobile Platform, comes with LPDDR5X built on Micron's previous-gen 1β (1-beta) process technology and delivers speeds up to 9.6 Gbps. In contrast, the Galaxy S26 Ultra 's RAM will be based on Micron's 1γ (1-gamma) DRAM technology. Galaxy S26 Ultra's memory chip will be faster and more power efficient. | Image Credit - Micron Micron claims that its 1γ LPDDR5X offers the industry's fastest RAM speed — 10.7 Gbps — which makes it ideal for AI use cases and data-intensive apps. Users can expect faster response and result delivery times. 1γ LPDDR5X also enables up to 20 percent power savings compared to 1-beta LPDDR5X memory. This means that the Galaxy S26 Ultra will burn through its charge at a slower rate than the Galaxy S25 Ultra . The new component will also take up less space, coming in at just 0.61mm, potentially freeing up room for other components such as a larger camera sensor or a bigger battery. Alternatively, Ice may be hinting at Samsung's 10.7Gbps LPDDR5X DRAM, which was announced last year. It's based on the 12nm process technology and is also faster and more power-efficient, and space-efficient than the previous-gen tech. Last year, Samsung allegedly ran into some overheating issues, which is why 60 percent of Galaxy S25 devices featured Micron-made components. Though Samsung allegedly successfully fixed the LPDDR5X process issues, a June report said that it was testing Micron's LPDDR5X for the Galaxy S26 series. Regardless of which supplier the company goes for, buyers can look forward to similar benefits. The Galaxy S26 Ultra is also expected to feature an upgraded design and a thinner profile. This Galaxy S25 is doing quite well and an improved Galaxy S25 Ultra with speedier performance will help the company build on that success.
