    Samsung has announced the new Galaxy Tab 3 which is more or less designed like the Galaxy Note 8.0, which was announced at the MObile World Congress. The specsheet is pretty much same as its predecessor Galaxy Tab 2 but weighs less at 302 grams and is just 9.9 mm thin. 

    The 7-inch Galaxy Tab 3 has the same 1024x600 pixel display, which is similar to the offering from Amazon, but less than the Nexus 7 and the HP Slate 7 which have 1024x700 pixel displays, available around the same sub-$250 price point. The Galaxy Tab 3 is powered by a 1.2 GHz dual-core processor with 1 GB of RAM running Android 4.1 Jelly Bean and available in 8GB and 16GB storage variants.

There is no mention of how much the the different variants of the Galaxy Tab 3 are going to cost, but we'll have that information in the coming weeks.
