It seems that the device has a screen resolution of 1280 x 800 pixels, the GPU is the familiar Mali 400 and has a processor that runs at 1.5GHz, nothing too remarkable for now. Much is also on a 10.1-inch version, which we hope to have better specifications, but we must consider the likely smaller version is designed for emerging markets and low-budget buyers.

Only three weeks left to start the MWC 2013, and surely we will know once you start new things about the Galaxy Tab 3 and many more devices. We look forward to report any significant developments arise.
