10.1-inch Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 tablet is announced packing 1.6GHz Intel processor
A bit over one month after the 7-inch Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 was made official, the Korean tech giant now announced a 10.1-inch member of the series. The 10.1-inch Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 comes with a 1280 by 800 pixel TFT display, 1GB of RAM, 3MP main camera, 1.3MP front-facing snapper, and either 16 or 32GB of on-board storage that can be expanded with the use of a microSD card. Android 4.2 is pre-loaded, with the usual UI modifications in the form of Samsung's TouchWiz interface.

But most importantly, Samsung has chosen to equip the 10.1-inch Galaxy Tab 3 model with a dual-core Intel processor running at 1.6GHz. This makes the device one of the first Intel-based Android tablets by Samsung, the 8-inch Tab 3 variant being the second of this kind. (Note: Samsung has not confirmed whether the processor used in the Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 is made by Intel or not. The claim was made earlier today by Reuters.)

The Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 also stands out with being very portable, with a thickness of under 8 millimeters and tipping the scales at 510 grams. Versions with 3G/4G cellular connectivity will be available as well. Details about pricing and availability of the 10.1-inch Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 have yet to be announced.
