We know that Samsung is set to host an online-only Samsung Unpacked on 5 August 2020, where the company will unveil a variety of new products. The Galaxy Tab S7 series is probably one of them, but it may not be the only one. Recently, a new tablet was discovered and we believed that it could be a mid-range option.

The tablet market is getting smaller and smaller, as more people turn to their large smartphones for their tablet-like experience. Of course there are situations where tablets will benefit greatly, and when paired with the right accessory, a tablet will bring new meaning to working on the go. Which is why this new leak of a new Samsung tablet with the S Pen is good news.

The rumours are really flying now with the Mobile World Congress 2016 expo happening just next week. This time around we have leaked info and pics from winfuture.de of the refreshed 7-inch Samsung Galaxy Tab A tablet. Standout features include an improved 800 x 1280 pixel resolution but it is also notable that it does not support the S Pen stylus. More tech specs below but still no Malaysia release dates but it is rumoured to be priced from 169 euros (RM795) for the WiFi version while the 4G LTE version will go for 219 euros (RM1030) sometime in April or March.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab A series tablets were recently announced in Russia with two devices in 8-inch and 9.7-inch display sizes. Going for a flat and thin look with metal backside, both look a lot likeApple iPad tablets except for the placement of the cameras and even the display resolution is similar with 1024 x 768 pixels for both Galaxy Tab A tablets. However, the tablets will be powered by a 64-bit 1.2GHz quad-core Snapdragon 410 processor, 2GB of RAM, 16GB storage, up to 128GB microSD, 4200 mAh battery for the smaller version and 6000 mAh for the larger version. Other tech specs include dual speakers, a 5MP and 2MP camera. Unfortunately, no news of any S-Pen support. Pricing is set at RUB16990 (RM1019) for the WiFi 8-inch Galaxy Tab A, while the larger version will go for RUB18990 (RM1139). The 4G LTE enabled smaller Galaxy Tab A will go for RUB20990 (RM1259) while the larger will go for RUB22990 (RM1379). No news on Malaysia release dates but it could reach Malaysia eventually.

The rumoured Samsung Galaxy Tab A and Tab A Plus could be coming soon as some tech specs of the two tablets have come up on Sam Mobile. These include 8-inch and 9.7-inch display versions but the Tab A Plus may have S-pen stylus support. According to the report this will be the first Samsung tablet outside of the Note range of products to feature something like this. Other tech specs include a Snapdragon 410 processor, 1GB RAM, 16GB storage, 5MP rear camera, 2MP front camera and a 4000 mAh battery for the Tab A. The Tab A Plus will feature 2GB RAM and a 6000 mAh battery while other tech specs will remain the same. These tech specs indicate that both devices will be entry level but there are still no confirmed Malaysia pricing details or release dates just yet.

Earlier reports may have indicated that Samsung could be reducing the number of devices it has on hand but new rumours indicate that we could soon be seeing some new tablets. This is due to a report saying that the Samsung Galaxy Tab A, Samsung Galaxy Tab E and Samsung Galaxy Tab J trademarks have been applied for at the Korean Intellectual Property Office. No news yet whether these are just codenames or if Samsung will be streamlining their Galaxy Tab product range (Galaxy Tab, Galaxy Tab S, Galaxy Note, Galaxy Note Pro) to just these three devices. No tech specs or features were mentioned but as usual, do take this rumour with a good pinch of salt or at least until we know more.
