Samsung Galaxy Tab A (2016) with S Pen Updated On Samsung

Samsung should be very close to launching the Samsung Galaxy Tab A (2016) with S Pen after Samsung have been busy updating their websites this week, and even posting the first official images of their latest Android 6.0 tablet on Samsung's South Korean website.

You can already download the Samsung Galaxy Tab A (2016) with S Pen user manual in English (PDF), to familiarize yourself with the many features if you are thinking about buying it, and look at what the S Pen can do.

(UPDATE: Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.1 (2016) with S Pen unveiled on September 12.)

We can also confirm that Samsung's documents says that both the Wi-Fi model SM-P580 and the 4G LTE model SM-P585 will both be powered by the octa-core Samsung Exynos 7870 processor.

So, similar to that of the non-pen model Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.1 (2016) then.

What I am the most curious about is the RAM, since the non-pen version has 2GB of RAM. But in the first benchmark leaks, the pen version was benchmarked with 3GB of RAM, so I'm assuming that this will be what we get on the final tablet too.

And given the timing of the latest updates from Samsung, the Samsung Galaxy Tab A (2016) with S Pen launch should happen now in September.
