Samsung announces Galaxy Tab 2


Samsung has taken the wraps off of its next offering in the Galaxy Tab line, the Galaxy Tab 2. The seven-inch tablet is the first Samsung tablet to have Android 4.0, a.k.a. Ice Cream Sandwich.

The device has a 1GHz dual-core processor, a 3MP rear-facing camera and a front-facing camera for video chat. It also has some Samsung-specific features such as access to the Korean electronics company’s Music Hub, Readers Hub, Game Hub and Video Hub as well as its AllSharePlay system.


The new content-sharing hub from Samsung lets users livestream their multimedia content to their new tablet from PCs, other Samsung devices and third-party cloud providers. It will have 3G or WiFi connectivity.

The Galaxy Tab 2 is 0.4 inches thick, and weighs 0.75 pounds, considerably lighter than the 9.7-inch iPad. The statement Samsung provided didn’t include a price, but Computerworld reports that the tablet will sell for $350.
The new tablet will be launched globally in March, starting in Britain.
