The new Samsung ATIV Tab 3.
The new Samsung ATIV Tab 3 made its debut today along with its sibling the ATIV Q. Built solely as a tablet device, the new ATIV Tab 3 comes in a consistent design that resembles Samsung's familiar Galaxy family of devices.
Based on a dual-core Intel Atom Z2760 processor at 1.8GHz and weighing only 550g, the new ATIV Tab 3 measures only 8.2mm thin, making it the world's slimmest Windows 8 tablet. Similar to the ATIV Q, the ATIV Tab 3 will also come with the S Pen which will work with an updated S Note 2.0 software. The S Pen also promises compatibility and improved productivity with the MS Office suite.
Besides offering full Windows compatibility, the ATIV Tab 3 will also come with Samsung's SideSync feature which lets you use the tablet together with Android-based Samsung smartphones. You can read more about SideSync in our earlier coverage of the ATIV Q.
As an added bonus, the new ATIV Tab 3 will come preloaded with Microsoft Office 2013 Home and Student edition.
On the right side of the device, you'll find the stylus located on the lower corner while the micro HDMI and micro USB port are located towards the upper side, along with the audio vent.
A 720p HD camera can be found at the back of the device.
