Reports suggest that both Samsung and Apple have plans to introduce a new class of gigantic tablet in 2014 and from the look of things, Samsung will get the jump on its archrival once again next month. A photo posted to Korean-language forum Clien.net and picked up by Phone Arena supposedly reveals Samsung’s monster tablet for the first time. It is also accompanied by purported specs that are in line with high-end smartphones and tablets that are already available, suggesting size will indeed be this slate’s main selling point. Seemingly dubbed either Galaxy Note 12 or Galaxy Note Pro, Samsung’s upcoming tablet will supposedly feature a 12.2-inch display with better-than-HD 2,560 x 1,600-pixel resolution, a quad-core Snapdragon 800 processor, 3GB of RAM, an 8-megapixel rear camera, a 2-megapixel front-facing camera, 32GB of storage, a 9,500 mAh battery and Android 4.4 KitKat. The massive new Samsung slate is expected to be unveiled next month at CES ahead of a launch sometime in the first quarter.
