Samsung Announces the 10.1″ Galaxy Tab (2016) Slate

It is quite easy to confuse Samsung’s naming scheme and think we have covered the same product twice. The latest in line of Samsung tablets is the new Galaxy Tab A 10.1 (2016) which comes weeks after its 7” version was uncovered.
The Tab A 10.1 comes with a 10.1” PLS display (which is a variant of the much-known IPS) with 1200 x 1920 resolution, which is slightly better than 1080p. It has three physical keys at the front in portrait.Samsung-Galaxy-Tab-A-10-2016

Underneath, you’ll get a 1.6 Ghz octa-core Exynos 7870 chipset with 2 GB worth RAM and 16 GB worth storage, which can be expanded by 200 GB (though, with Samsung itself now making a 256 GB card, we can’t see how that can’t be a possibility). The back camera is of 8 megapixels, with LED and 1080p video recording, coupled with a 2 MP front shooter.
The tablet runs on Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow customized, and has an optional LTE variant with download speeds of up to 300Mbps. Otherwise, the usual Wi-Fi version supports the faster ac standard, too. The software supports ‘Kid Mode’ as well, which allows up to 8 user profiles for multiple users living in a household.
Pricing starts at $329 for the base Wi-Fi model, and goes to $379 for the LTE version. The slate can be had in either Black or White color versions.

OPPO’s Super VOOC can Fully Charge a Phone Battery in 15 Minutes

With every iteration of flagship phones, they get smarter and more powerful. However, one thing that remains seemingly stagnant is battery life.
