Unannounced Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 9.7 4G LTE update to Android 5.0.2 reportedly appears in KIES

Even though the Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 8.0 and Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 9.7 have yet to be officially introduced (that is expected to take place next week), the Galaxy Tab S2 9.7 reportedly has a firmware update waiting for it on Samsung's KIES in Germany. The update is for the SM-T815, which happens to be the 4G LTE version of the tablet, and takes the device to Android 5.0.2.

Yesterday, we passed along an image alleged to be a press render of the Galaxy Tab S2. At 5.4mm, both the 8-inch and 9.7-inch versions of the slate will be the thinnest tablets produced to date, and will be powered by the same Exynos chipset found inside the Samsung Galaxy S6 and Samsung Galaxy S6 edge.

The update to the Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 9.7 will apparently take the tablet to firmware version T815XXU1AOG5. If the report is legit, it can be considered a huge confirmation that the ultra-thin tablets are indeed on the way.

Thanks for the tip!
