Paper-Thin Tablets

The Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 Takes Lightness to New Extremes

The Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 series consists of two tablets that take Samsung's flagship tablets and make them thinner and more lightweight than ever before. Indeed it's a marvel that these tablets pack the technology and specs that they do given how little room they take up.

These tablets will be made available in 9.7-inch and 8-inch display options, with both being only 5.6 millimeters thick (or rather, thin). The tablets feature the same Super AMOLED display technology found in their 2014 predecessors -- guaranteeing rich and high-contrast colors -- but with improved 2,048 x 1,536 resolution to match the latest Apple tablets.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 series is just the latest example of Samsung's expertise in blending elegant style and portability with the best features.
