Now, new evidence suggests this trend will continue with Samsung\u2019s upcoming flagship tablets.<\/p>\n<p>We dug into Samsung\u2019s AI core app and found references to the MediaTek Dimensity 9500 processor in one of the app files. The file doesn\u2019t explicitly call it the Dimensity 9500, but instead uses the MT6993 model number.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Don\u2019t want to miss the best from Android Authority?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img class=\"e_Mg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" sizes=\"9.375rem\" title=\"google preferred source badge light@2x\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_light@2x.png 676w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_light@2x-64w-20h.png 64w\" alt=\"google preferred source badge light@2x\" src=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_light@2x.png\"\/><img class=\"e_Mg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" sizes=\"9.375rem\" title=\"google preferred source badge dark@2x\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_dark@2x.png 676w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_dark@2x-64w-20h.png 64w\" alt=\"google preferred source badge dark@2x\" src=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_dark@2x.png\"\/><\/p>\n<p>The AI Core app also lists several AI-related features associated with the chipset, as seen below:<\/p>\n<p>Code<\/p>\n<p>Copy TextFEATURE_WALLPAPER<br \/>\nFEATURE_INOUT_PAINTING<br \/>\nFEATURE_GEN_EDIT_ON_DEVICE<br \/>\nFEATURE_HARMONIZATION_ON_DEVICE<\/p>\n<p>These features ostensibly refer to AI-generated wallpapers, image expansion, and generative editing. It\u2019s not immediately clear what the harmonization feature refers to, but it could be a nod to image harmonization. This technique adjusts lighting, colors, and contrast to ensure that subjects in a composite image more realistically fit into the scene.<\/p>\n<p>Otherwise, the code doesn\u2019t actually mention a device. All it really tells us is that Samsung plans to use the Dimensity 9500 in an upcoming product. Nevertheless, recent history shows that Samsung used flagship Dimensity silicon in its last two generations of high-end Galaxy Tabs, so it stands to reason that the new chip will appear in the Galaxy Tab S12 series.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re happy to see that this could be the case, as the Dimensity 9500 in particular is a powerful piece of silicon&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/samsung-mediatek-dimensity-9500-galaxy-tab-s12-teardown-3666921\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Galaxy Tab S12 series?
