Dumb as fu*k TFT panel with low resolution.
In Russia, Samsung introduces you to tablet!
okay that sucked but at least it’s out of the way
Nice to see 4:3 ratio. Are the screens AMOLED? Wish they were 1600×1200 though.
Can’t expect 2048×1536 as they are probably keeping it for Tab S. Or maybe 2560×1920 for Tab S?
