Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 to come with quad-core processor?

Netbook News has receieved a tip from an anonymous Samsung employee in Korea that production of the Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 (GT-P5100) has stopped to upgrade the 1 GHz dual-core CPU to a quad-core CPU. It is unknown what brand of processor Samsung is switching to. The two most likely candidates are their own quad-core Exynos CPU that they have been working on or NVIDIA’s quad-core Tegra 3 CPU. Both would be a great addition to the tablet, but I think the Exynos CPU is better.

New Galaxy Tab to be announced May 3rd?

Invites to Samsung Mobile Unpacked 2012 in London are being sent out now. My lowly blog did not make the invite list, but the event will be held on May 3rd. The invitation only has three abstract blobs and the words “COME AND MEET THE NEXT GALAXY” printed on it. Most of the tech website are immediately assuming that this means “COME AND MEET THE GALAXY S III” or whatever name Samsung chooses for their Android flagship phone. I, however, read it as “COME AND MEET THE NEXT GALAXY LINE.”

So will we see a Galaxy Tab or Galaxy Note tablet on May 3rd? Maybe. Until then all we can do is wait.

Well The Verge just reported the price of these two devices. The Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 will cost $250 and the Galaxy Tab 10.1 will be $400. These prices are for the Wi-Fi versions.
