New photos of the Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 8.0 have surfaced in the wild confirming its existence after it was recently submitted to the FCC for approval.
The Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 8.0 (model number SM-T715) is one of two new tablets expected to be launched by the end of the year by the South Korean tech company, the other being the Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 9.7 (model number SM-T815).
As the titles suggest, the larger of the two tablets will feature a 9.7-inch touchscreen display and its more compact sibling, the one pictured here from front and back, an 8-inch screen with specification leaks suggesting it to be Super-AMOLED with 1536 x 2048 HD resolution with 320ppi pixel density.
From the photo leaked and shared by French site NWE (Nowhere Else) we can the screen fills much of the front surface of the device thanks to a narrow bezel which allows a generous working area. The menu, home and back buttons find their place along the bottom of the tablet which is the norm for the Tab range.Both will come in at a slim 5.4mm depth, making them Samsung’s skinniest Tabs to date and are also said to rock up with latest Android 5.0 Lollipop. The Tab S2 8.0 will boast the same Exynos chipset as Samsung’s Galaxy S6 flagship smartphone, a quad-core processor clocked at 2.1GHz.
3GB of RAM will be available and 32GB of device storage will come as standard with microSD support can increase the capacity to a further 128GB. An 8-megapixel rear camera is reported along with a 2.1-megapixel front facing camera for your selfie and video calling needs.
Neither the Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 80 or 97 have been publicly acknowledged by their maker, and the only official information thus far is the registration with the FCC and TENAA of China. This means no release date or price info just yet.
