Earlier this year, Samsung announced the Galaxy Tab S5e – an upper mid-range tablet with a Snapdragon 670 processor. It is also Samsung’s slimmest tablet so far. Now it seems the main flagship tablet – the Galaxy Tab S5 – is coming soon based on a new Geekbench listing.
The device which was benchmarked yesterday has the model number SM-T865. The benchmark result shows it has 6GB of RAM and runs Android 9 Pie. The tablet is powered by the Snapdragon 855 processor just like the Galaxy S10 series. Its single-core score is 3506 while its multi-core score is 9788. The latter is low compared to that of other devices powered by the same chipset as a lot of them score over 10,000 points.
We are in the dark with respect to the rest of the specs and even its design but we have a few guesses. First, the audio jack might be removed on the Galaxy Tab S5. Samsung already removed the audio jack in the Galaxy Tab S5e to achieve its impressively thin design, so there is a chance the Tab S5 may follow suit. The screen size may remain unchanged but the bezels may get smaller.
We are not sure if Samsung will bring back the fingerprint scanner and put it on the side like on the S5e. If it doesn’t, we will have to make do with an Iris Scanner. Lastly, When the tablet launches, it should also come with the new One UI interface.
