New Galaxy Tab A 8.0 (2017) spotted ahead of official unveil

Samsung introduced the Galaxy Tab S3 about four months ago, but that won't remain the only tablet the South Korean company launches this year. A mid-range slate that goes by model number SM-T385 has been recently spotted online.

Considering the Galaxy Tab A 8.0 is known as Samsung SM-T350, the new tablet might be a sequel to the mid-range slate. The listing at GFXBench reveals some of its specs, such as the 1.4GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 435 processor, paired with 2GB RAM and 16GB of internal memory.

Just like the current model, the alleged Galaxy Tab A 8.0 (2017) sports an 8-inch display with HD (1280 x 800 pixels) resolution. Also, the slate is supposed to feature an 8-megapixel primary camera and a secondary 5-megapixel selfie shooter on the front side.

There's no word on the battery side, but we do know the new Galaxy Tab A 8.0 (2017) will ship with Android 7.0 Nougat on board. The tablet is likely to be officially unveiled in early September at IFA 2017, but Samsung may use another market name.
