We all know that Amazon have had the cheapest tablets up to this day with their range of Fire units, however it now seems as though Samsung may be jumping on the same bandwagon.
Not so much a new unit but an upgrade to the existing Samsung Galaxy Tab A 8.0 (2019) leaked specs have been hitting the web.
If power is what you need from a tablet then read no further and have a look at the new best of breeds from Apple and Samsung, but if you want to be a little easier on the wallet then read on.
Winfuture a German site has managed to get hold of a supposed spec sheet from Samsung, detailing the upcoming tablet, which is set to replace the older Galaxy Tab A 8.0 model.
The list also gives expectations for when the tablet launches at an undisclosed date. Galaxy Tab A 8.0 (2019) 8 inch display, claimed the first feature released. I mean that probably goes without saying as its the name of the tablet.
Snapdragon 429 chipset a low-end SoC (system on chip) launched in 2018 and designed for the budget Samsung smartphones, therefore processing power might be a little slow if your try serious gaming or visual effects studios.
2GB of RAM and 32GB of internal memory puts it in line with the lower ends Samsung phone range. You may think these are quite low numbers considering the flagship handsets on the market, however cloud storage is getting more popular and an external MicroSD slot on the horizon it doesn’t seem to much of a concern.
5,100mAh which isn’t a giant battery, but it will certainly get you through a flight whilst watching the latest Netflix season or a train journey catching up on Love Island.
3.5mm headphone jack unlike Apple, Samsung seem to be determined to continue in offering this as a feature on their tech.
2MP Camera a bit of a poor show suspected from samsung onthe camera front, as Amazon offer both a 2 MP rear-facing camera and HD 720p front-facing camera. But, how often do you use it when you have a phone by your side?
£££ the price has yet to be released so there’s little we can say here, but with the Amazon Prime day due imminently and the Fire set to be coming in sub £40, can Samsung compete?
