Just yesterday we told you that Samsung Galaxy Tab S2, after going through the different certifying bodies in China, the United States and South Korea, they were ready for presentation and that this It would take place next week, specifically on Monday, July 20, day after tomorrow. This information was accompanied by some of the press images that would be published with the Samsung announcement, well, thanks to a new leak we now have a extended gallery with several photographs of the two models and we know what they will be your specifications.
Surprisingly, yesterday the supposed date of presentation of the Galaxy Tab S2, two of the most anticipated tablets of the whole year safely. We were surprised that the day indicated by the report was next July 20, that is, the day after tomorrow, Monday. The reason, that Samsung did not have time to convene the press and for a large event, well organized, with everyone watching them, as they did last year for the Galaxy Tab S unveiled in New York City and as is usual for the presentation of the rest of the large teams in its catalog, such as the Galaxy S range of smartphones or the Galaxy Note.
Apparently with the “Ok” from Tenaa, the FCC and finally from the certifying body of South Korea, Samsung had everything ready for a presentation that could be somewhat decaffeinated if it occurs, as it seems it will be, in just two days. We warned you that if the information is correct, during the weekend we would have new news and it has been so, which makes the suspicions now something more than that. What are the news? Basically two: a string of press images, with a fairly acceptable quality (much better than the ones we published yesterday) and the confirmation of the specifications of the 8 and 9,7-inch models, with some striking surprise.
Galaxy Tab S2 9.7
We start with the features of the 9,7-inch model. The Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 9.7, which hides behind the numbering SM-T810, it would have a 9,7-inch screen super AMOLED, technology that Koreans use regularly and that has improved a lot in recent years to the point of getting the original Galaxy Tab S to be named the best in this section in 2014. The resolution of the panel will be QHD, the filtration says 2.560 x 1.440 pixels but this would correspond to a 16: 9 ratio and the images that you will see below are clearly from a 4: 3 team (much more square). We will see what the final figures are but it would be good news if the resolution remained in QHD and did not go down a notch as has been rumored on previous occasions.
The chosen processor would be Exynos 7420 and not the Exynos 5433 which seemed to be the one with the most options. Is he chip that mounts the flagship smartphone of the firm, the Galaxy S6 (also the Galaxy S6 Edge) and that has helped it to position itself as the most powerful terminal in AnTuTu. Would be accompanied by 3 GB of RAM, expected, and 32 GB of internal storage expandable with microSD cards. Finally Samsung would have made the decision to include this slot, although the pools were betting otherwise. The cameras will be 8 and 2,1 megapixels respectively and the 5.870 mAh battery, which is not bad at all.
Galaxy Tab S2 8.0
This model identified as SM-T710 would have an 8-inch SuperAMOLED screen with resolution 2.048 x 1.536 pixels. This is the resolution that we find in the iPad Air 2, for example, and that in principle the two models were going to have until this latest leak has pointed out that the 9,7-inch will remain in QHD. Be that as it may, there is no doubt that it will be the one that we will find in the smallest model.
For the rest, few surprises, which we have already commented. The processor would be the Exynos 7420 accompanied by 3 GB of RAM and 32 GB of expandable storage, the cameras will be 8 megapixels on the back and 2,1 megapixels on the front and the battery will obviously have a somewhat lower capacity, 4.000 mAh. In addition, both variants will have the version installed 5.02 Lollipop Android app with the TouchWiz interface. Of course, the update to Android 5.1.1 Lollipop, the latest version of Google's operating system today, would not wait too long.
As for prices, we invite you to go through the article in which we detail what they will be according to another leak that occurred a few days ago.
