MWC 2012: Samsung's 10.1-inch Galaxy Tab 2 bound for UK this March

Joins smaller 7-inch variant

MWC 2012: Samsung's 10.1-inch Galaxy Tab 2 bound for UK this March
Following up the unveiling of Samsung's forthcoming follow-up to the original 7-inch Galaxy Tab, the Korean tech giant has revealed the device is actually one of a two strong series.

Coupling the 7-inch tablet will be a 10.1 inch version – both devices dubbed Galaxy Tab 2 and both due out first in the UK this March.

Bigger and better

The new 10.1 inch version sports the same dual-core 1Ghz processor as its smaller relation, as well as both 3MP rear and VGA front facing cameras.

However, the larger device also comes with a 7,000mAh battery – the extra grunt required presumably designed to power its 1,280x800 display.



Aside from a slight tweak to the device's aesthetics, the new 10.1 Galaxy Tab 2 sports an almost identical set of specs as the existing 10.1 inch Galazy Tab – albeit, the revised device is set to ship with Android 4.0 – also known as Ice Cream Sandwich – out of the box.
