Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 Gets FCC Approval

Unveiled at the Mobile World Congress 2012 in Barcelona, Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 is about to make its debut in the UK sometime this month.

Shortly after the slate is launched in the UK, Samsung plans to introduced the Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 in the United States, though the company has not unveiled any release dates until now.

However, we know that it shouldn’t take Samsung too long to debut the tablet in the US, especially given the fact that the Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 has just been spotted at the FCC (Federal Communications Commission).

Even though only the Wi-Fi model of the tablet got approved by FCC, we can safely assume that the 3G version will get its approval soon.

The Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 is one of Samsung’s tablets with support for GSM voice communication, which is a rare thing these days. Still, this is not the only selling point of the slate. 

The tablet is powered by Google’s Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich operating system, which is one of the few improvements in comparison with its Galaxy Tab 10.1 predecessor.

Plus, the sequel of the Galaxy Tab 10.1 comes with microSD card slot for memory expansion (up to 32GB). Two models will be available on the market, a 16GB variant and a 32GB version.

The tablet is equipped with a dual-core processor clocked at 1 GHz. In addition, Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 comes with dual cameras, a 3 megapixel rear photo snapper with autofocus, LED flash and full HD (1080p) video recording, as well as a secondary VGA front-facing camera for video calls.

Last but not least, the Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 sports a large 10.1-inch PLS TFT capacitive touchscreen display that supports 800 x 1280 pixels resolution and features Corning Gorilla Glass coating.
