Samsung teases new Galaxy Tab and Galaxy Watch launch.
These devices will launch ahead of the Galaxy Note 10 debut in New York.
The devices are likely to be called the Galaxy Tab S6 and the Galaxy Watch Active 2.
Samsung has released a teaser video previewing two new Galaxy products that will be unveiled ahead of this year’s ‘Unpacked’ event in New York. The devices, which are likely to be called the Galaxy Tab S6 and the Galaxy Watch Active 2, will be launched in a special pre-event in New York. Samsung says that it will unveil the Galaxy Tab on July 31 at 10AM EDT (7.30pm IST) and the Galaxy Watch on August 5 at 10AM EDT (7.30pm IST).
“The new devices cater to the generation that wants the power to create and consume wherever they are. Samsung is allowing for interconnectedness anytime, enabling users to seamlessly merge work and play, and ensuring peace of mind at all times. In a world that belongs to the creators, Samsung’s new innovations will allow users to share their thoughts and ideas freely, empowering their voices and offering the tools for boundless creation,” Samsung said in a note.
Samsung Galaxy Tab S6
The Samsung tablet, which is likely to be called the Galaxy Tab S6, was leaked in renders earlier this month. The alleged renders of tablet showed a vertically- aligned dual-camera setup on the back. The device will come equipped with an S-Pen. The renders hint that the new tablet may look a lot like the Samsung Galaxy Tab S5e (review). The device may ship sans a headphone jack and feature a USB Type-C port at the bottom. It was reported that Samsung could introduce a keyboard accessory, which is also teased in the video above.
According to the information making rounds on the internet, the dual-camera setup on the back could feature a 13MP main camera and a 5MP secondary wide-angle sensor. Just below the camera, there seems to be a groove to magnetically attach the S-Pen, which could come with Bluetooth support. Additionally, the tablet might come equipped with four AKG-tuned speakers, two on both top and bottom. The Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 could be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 chipset and might feature a 10.5-inch display. The tablet is touted to come equipped with 6GB RAM and 128GB storage that can be upgraded to 256GB. It could launch in Pink, Grey and Blue colours.
Samsung Galaxy Watch Active 2
Just like the tablet, the apparent specs of Samsung’s watch were also made public. The Galaxy Watch Active 2 is said to come in 40mm and 42mm sizes, with the display on the watches measuring 1.2 inches and 1.4 inches respectively. It is rumoured to come with a Super AMOLED display with Gorilla Glass DX+ protection. Both watches are expected to use a steel or aluminium case that will be MIL-STD 810G certified. The Watch Active 2 is also rumoured to have a touch-sensitive bezel, and it is expected to employ the same Samsung Exynos 9110 SoC as its predecessor, with 768 MB of RAM on the Bluetooth-only model and 1.5GB on the LTE-capable wearable.
