Samsung’s 2013 tablet portfolio leaks: 1080p 8-inch Tab, octa-core 11-incher coming
Samsung’s portfolio of devices is surely a well-guarded secret and having it all leak out is a dubious affair, but in this case the source is SamMobile, a relatively trustworthy publication, and it brings some good news.
In 2013, Samsung is allegedly planning to bring an 8-inch Galaxy Tab tablet with a 1080p screen and an 11-inch Android slate with an octa-core chip. These are just some of the Samsung tablets that will get released throughout the year, and here is the full list along with the rumored specifications:
Samsung Galaxy Tab DUOS 7.0 (nearly identical to the just announced Galaxy Tab 3.0)
- 7.0” PLS LCD 600 x 1024 pixel screen
- 3 Megapixel (rear camera)
- 2 Megapixel (front)
- dual-core processor
- dual-SIM
- microSD 32GB
Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.0
- 8.0” AMOLED 1080p screen
- 5 Megapixel (rear camera)
- 2 Megapixel (front)
- quad-core A9 chip (Exynos 4412)
- microSD 64GB
* Samsung need to solve AMOLED burning problem first.
- 11” Super PLS TFT screen
- 8 Megapixel (rear camera)
- 2 Megapixel (front)
- dual-core A15 chip (Exynos 5250)
- microSD 64GB
NEXUS 11*
- 11” Super PLS TFT screen
- 8 Megapixel (rear camera)
- 2 Megapixel (front)
- octa-core A15 / A7 big.LITTLE chip (Exynos 5410)
- microSD 64 GB
* Needs to get approvement from Google
If true, Samsung will have quite a solid standing in tablet this year. Being the first with a 1080p compact tablet will obviously be a huge advantage as that market grows tremendously quickly, and a possible new Nexus 11 could become the world’s first octa-core tablet.
Also, development of the second generation Galaxy Note 10.1 might have slowed down or have been canceled completely due to weak sales of the tablet.
