Word on the street has it that Samsung has another tablet up their sleeves apart from the Galaxy Tab 3 (7.0) which has already been announced. This alleged device is the Galaxy Tab 3 (8.0) which is a slightly larger sibling of the 7″ model, and thanks to the folks at SamMobile, they claim to have gotten their hands on what appears to be a leaked photo of the tablet. While the design is slightly similar to the Galaxy Tab 3 (7.0), it is noticeably difference in the sense that the front-facing camera and ambient light sensor are positioned in the middle, versus to the right on the Galaxy Tab 3 (7.0), and the fact that its bezels are also thinner than the 7″ model, suggesting a slightly larger display.
While the device has yet to be made official, the specs as it stands include a 1.5GHz dual-core processor along with 1.5GB of RAM, 16GB of storage expandable via microSD, and an 8″ 1280×800 display. It will feature a 5MP rear-facing camera, a 1.3MP front-facing camera, and is expected to run on Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean. Still no word on when the 8″ model of the Galaxy Tab 3 will be released, but hopefully it will be soon, so stay tuned for updates, and in the meantime take this with a grain of salt for now!
