Samsung gets ready for the unveiling of the Galaxy Tab A7
Just four months after the Galaxy Tab A 8.4 (2020) launch, Samsung is now gearing up to launch another tablet from the A-series. According to leaks, the upcoming Galaxy Tab A7 (2020) will sport a 10.4-inch screen display with 1,200 x 2,000 pixels resolution.
And thanks to the popular and reliable tipster, Evan Blass, we now have an idea of what to expect. What’s more? The tab could hit the shelves in the first half of September. Blass posted the renders on his Patreon account, giving us a good idea of the look for the Galaxy Tab A7.
The brand-new Galaxy tab will come in two colors: Gold and Grey. As you will notice in the renders, there is nothing dazzling in the design. Since this is just a budget tab, we don’t think Samsung will go overboard with the design.
Things that are very important: what’s under the hood
Let us take a look at what’s under the hood, shall we?
Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy Tab A7 will be powered by a Snapdragon 662 chipset. This chipset is a bit faster and more power-efficient than the Exynos 7904 which the Galaxy Tab A 10.1 (2019) sported.
Additionally, it’s an 11 nm chip and has four Cortex-A73 based “big” CPU cores instead of just two. This chipset is a decent mid-range processor that provides enough to accomplish simple day-to-day tasks.
The battery inside features a 7,040 mAh battery. However, there are no details regarding whether it supports fast-charging or not. At the back of the device, you will see a single 13-megapixel camera and the company logo at the center.
However, the Google Play Console claims a dual camera array – a 13-megapixel and 5-megapixel cameras. On the other hand, the front features thick bezels and a front selfie sensor on its vertical side.
And when it comes to the software, the device will run Android 10 operating system with One UI shell. Lastly, it will sport a Bluetooth 5.0 connectivity with 247.6 × 157.36 × 293.37 mm dimension.
A Dutch reseller reveals the Galaxy Tab A7’s price and availability date
Well, it is not just the device’s renders that got leaked, but also its price and availability.
A Dutch seller, Centralpoint, has revealed the price of the new Samsung tablet as well as the date of its availability. So, according to the seller, the tablet will be available in the next few weeks – September 11th.
The base model which will feature 32GB of storage will cost €235 for the Wi-Fi connection and €293 for the LTE connection. The higher storage of 64GB will be available for €266 for the Wi-Fi connection and €323 for the LTE connection.
There’s no word yet when the budget tablet will land on U.S. shores, but we expect that it will arrive in the U.S. around the same time.
