Samsung announces Galaxy Tab 10.1 2
Looks like the bigger brother of the Galaxy Tabs will be getting the 2.0 written on its name with the addition of Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, 1280×800, up from the 1024×600, and the usual spec underneath! The Galaxy Tab 10.1 comes in a new flavor, Ice Cream Sandwich but it also has a new TouchWiz UX specifically made for ICS on their tablets, the same we saw on the Galaxy Tab 7.0 2 when it was announced last week.
The battery is also rated at 7,000 mAh so we can expect some very good battery life! Samsung will be selling two models, the WiFI only and WiFi + 3G (HSPA+). With different built-in storage of course. If you live in Great Britain, you can expect the new 10.1 hitting store shelves in March, now for us Americans, we don’t have a date but if the past tells us history, sometime in April!
