Samsung's $1,400 Galaxy Tab S12 Ultra leaves Android fleets a single premium supplier

Samsung is now the only company making a proper Android rival to the iPad Pro, Engadget says, with the $1,399.99 Galaxy Tab S12 Ultra. For teams standardising tablets, that leaves one supplier at the top end and a per-seat cost well above the sticker once a keyboard goes on.

Anthropic cuts Fable 5.1 prices by 25% and launches two-tier safeguard system with Mythos 5.1

The saving comes off cache reads, so it lands unevenly across teams, and the model's most sensitive capability now reaches users through a credential issued by an access program, not a purchase order a budget holder can sign off alone. Both changes move the decision away from the budget holder.
