8-inch variant of the Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 appears on import listings, being tested in India
Last month, we had exclusively reported various details about the successors to the high-end Galaxy Tab S tablets from Samsung. Now, one of those devices has been spotted on the import listings website Zauba. The SM-T715, which is believed to be an 8-inch variant of the Galaxy Tab S 2, was imported in India last week for testing purposes, and will be destroyed after testing process is completed.
The Galaxy Tab S 2 8.0 (SM-T715) will feature an 8-inch Super AMOLED display with a resolution of 2048 x 1536 and as aspect ration of 4:3. It will be thinner than the Apple iPad Air at just 5.4mm, and will feature an octa-core Exynos 5433 processor, 3GB RAM, 32GB storage, 8-megapixel primary camera, 2.1-megapixel secondary camera, LTE Cat. 6, and a 3,850 mAh battery. This tablet, and its 9.7-inch sibling, the Galaxy Tab S 2 9.7 (SM-T810), will run Android 5.0 Lollipop out of the box and have metal bodies, just like the recent mid-range and high-end smartphones from Samsung.

No buy from me. I want 16:10 or 16:9 screen ratio. Seems like I will have to get the new Sony tablet in a few months, which I really don’t like doing 🙁 All I wanted was a new Galaxy Tab S with a longer battery life and a faster CPU/GPU.
Finally!! I’ve been waiting for an Android high-specced 4:3 tablet for ages! Not so sure about the metal bodies though, I just hope it’s not yet another case of form over function and really hoping it doesn’t mean no microSD slot.
