An internship can be a good chance to practice and gain experience, but preparing for one can take time. The new subjects, notes, projects, and skills can quickly pile up as you are getting ready for a new opportunity.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab S12 brings many of those tasks together in one place. The thin and light design makes it easy to carry, while the large display, powerful processor, long battery life, Galaxy AI features, S Pen, and professional apps give you tools to learn and practice.

Here are some quick tips to help you get more from the Galaxy Tab S12 while preparing for your next opportunity.

tl;dr

  • Get ready for an internship with a thin and light Galaxy Tab S12 that is easy to carry and powerful enough for demanding tasks.
  • Use Galaxy AI, Gemini Notebook, and Samsung Notes to organize information, review notes, and turn what you learn into useful study material.
  • Practice your skills with the S Pen, professional apps, and accessories that can help you move from preparation to actual work.

1. Keep your internship preparation close at hand

An internship can take you out of your typical routine, so a device that is easy to carry can make a difference. The Galaxy Tab S12 Ultra is only 5.1mm thick and weighs 692g (Wi-Fi model). The Galaxy Tab S12+ is 5.3mm thick and weighs 553g (Wi-Fi model). These models also have large Dynamic AMOLED 2X displays with 120Hz refresh rates. The Ultra has a 14.6-inch display, while the S12+ has a 12.6-inch display.

The result is a large canvas without the size and weight of a traditional laptop.

2. Keep your notes and other information together

The preparation for your new internship can involve more than one type of material. For example, images, notes, recordings, and files can all become part of the process. Gemini Notebook brings these materials together in one workspace. You can use it to create summaries, podcasts, and quizzes from the information you've collected.

Samsung Notes can also use Note Assist to summarize your notes, giving you smaller bites of information to review later. Keeping these materials in one place makes it easier to track what you've learned and find the information when you need it.

3. Use Multi Window when you need to compare information

Some tasks are easier when you don't have to switch between apps, and that is when large screens and features like Multi Window come in handy.

The Multi Window feature can divide the screen into up to three sections. A simple setup could include learning material in one section, while Samsung Notes and an AI assistant are in the remaining sections. The extra screen space makes it easier and more convenient to follow a lesson, take notes, and ask questions without constantly switching between apps.

4. Ask AI when you need another way to understand something

When learning something new, it could take more than one explanation to make sense. The Galaxy Tab S12 series comes with a six-month trial of Google AI Pro, giving you access to Google's more advanced AI models. Gemini can help answer questions or explain a topic in more detail when you need more information.

Samsung Browser can also summarize information across open pages and use context from your browsing to surface relevant sources from the past.

5. Turn handwritten notes into something useful

Your notes, annotations, sketches, and other handwritten work can all be useful during your preparation. A quick handwritten note can help you capture an idea, while annotations can make it easier to mark important details. The included S Pen can give you a more natural way to sketch concepts or work through an idea before turning it into a finished project.

6. Use the apps that match your skills

An internship is not only about learning. It can also be a chance to show what you can do.

The Galaxy Tab S12 tablets support many different professional and creative apps. For example, Adobe Photoshop comes pre-installed and is optimized for the S Pen, with Adobe Firefly features like Generative Fill and Image to Video. Other options include Notability, Goodnotes, LumaFusion, Notion, Clip Studio Paint, MyScript Math, MyScript Notes, Noteshelf 3, and ArcSite.

The Galaxy Tab S12 series also includes several app offers, including four months of Photoshop mobile premium, six months of Notability, and one year of Goodnotes.

7. Pick the right setup for the task

The S Pen supports handwritten notes and sketches, while a keyboard makes longer typing sessions easier. The Pro Keyboard has an aluminum design and includes a Galaxy AI Key for quick access to an AI assistant. The Book Cover Keyboard Slim is another option for typing and different viewing angles.

Your setup can change depending on the work. A keyboard can make sense for longer documents, while the S Pen can be more useful for notes, annotations, or sketches.

8. Keep enough battery for the day

If you usually have to balance an already busy schedule with short learning sessions throughout the day, battery life is as important as performance.

Samsung rates the Galaxy Tab S12 Ultra for up to 23 hours of battery life and the Galaxy Tab S12+ for up to 21 hours. Also, with the 45W charging adapter, the tablets can go from 0 to 100 percent in 95 minutes. The Dimensity 9500 processor also delivers up to 61% faster NPU (Neural Processing Unit), 19% faster processor, and 17% improved graphics performance than the Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra.

An internship can be a chance to turn what you have learned into experience. The Galaxy Tab S12 brings many of the tools you may need to prepare and get started in one device. When you need to prepare for an internship, you do not have to stay at one desk. The Galaxy Tab S12 gives you a portable setup for studying, creating, and putting those skills into practice.
