Rumors about large tablets of two of the main agents in this interesting format. According to sources in the production chains of both companies that Digitimes manages, both Samsung and Apple they would be working on 12-inch models for the near future.
As we already knew Quanta and Apple would be working on the design of the iPad Max for some time now. Those of Cupertino would also have given it the production of the next iWatch, the smart watch of the apple. On the previous occasion when we had heard a similar rumor, there was talk of a 12,9 inch exactly although it was failed to specify whether a hybrid format or a pure tablet would be followed, according to the cabals that some analysts have released on the air. It is speculated that it would be a model for 2014.
The news about the new Samsung model is more surprising. According to Digitimes, the Korean company would have been in conversations with Google to jointly release the model following an extensive line of collaboration with the Nexus line and the Chromebook. The Mountain Viewers would not have been too interested, since they believe that the 7-inch is the size where they have to make the most effort and where they really have a competitive advantage over their rivals.
Still, the Koreans decide to move on. We have had a lot of information about this team. Your specs when it was believed that it would be called Galaxy Tab Plus and then it has been seen in different records, hinting that it will actually be a 12,2-inch Galaxy Note. This team could arrive even before the end of the year.
If both models arrive, it could increase the offer in large tablets, something that until now had only been done using the Microsoft platform.
The projects are not entirely closed, as there are concerns that the launch of larger tablets could affect notebook sales, where both companies have interests.
