Because the tablet will be a part of the Galaxy Note line, it’ll feature Samsung’s S-Pen stylus.
The SamMobile report doesn’t include information regarding the tablet’s processor, but it says the device will run on Android 4.2 Jelly Bean, the latest version of the Google mobile operating system.
The Galaxy Note 8.0 will be available in Wi-Fi only and cellular models and be available with either 16 or 32 gigabytes of storage space, according to the report.
