German customers who’ve been wanting a 9.7-inch tablet from Samsung are in luck.
The Galaxy Tab A, announced in Russia and the Netherlands (two weeks ago), is now headed to Germany.
The specs of the device haven’t changed. You’re still looking at a 9.7-inch display with a 1024 x 768p screen resolution (4:3 aspect ratio), a 1.2Ghz quad-core processor with 16GB of storage (and a microSD card slot that expands the storage with an additional 128GB) and 2GB of random access memory (RAM) for the LTE version (1.5GB RAM for the Wi-Fi only variant). The 2MP front camera will suffice for most front-facing experiences, but the 5MP camera will likely leave something to be desired. The Tab A will come pre-loaded with Android 5.0 Lollipop on-board, however, so that may sweeten the deal (pun intended).
As for the price, the Tab A will come in at €299 (299 euros, Wi-Fi only) and €349 (349 euros, Wi-Fi + 4G LTE). The Tab A will arrive in Germany in either the end of April or the start of May 2015. We have no word yet on whether German users can expect a variant of the Tab A to arrive with a stylus, but we’re confident that it will.
