One of Samsung’s regional Twitter accounts has just confirmed those rumoured Samsung Android tablet plans, uploading this image – and describing it as the Samsung Galaxy Tab. A follow-up tweet confirmed the following info about the new Samsung tablet:
“This particular one is a 7″ model and has a high-res TFT screen. At the top-end it has a 3.5mm jack”
And here’s the photo. That’s a Samsung Galaxy S to the left, on the right is the Galaxy Tab. The pic comes via the SamsungBlogSA Twitter account, which describes itself as the “official Twitter channel for the Samsung Blog” in South Africa. Sounds official. This must be real:
We’ve not been particularly excited about the flurry of Chinese-made, generic Android tablets, to be honest – but a high-quality, Samsung-made one is something we’d very much like to have a play with. And possibly even have to keep.

Motorola’s latest flagship dual-core Android monster is a massive, original powerhouse, that’s a big improvement on previous MOTOBLUR mobiles – but still isn’t a total winner.
A slim and glamorous phone from Sony Ericsson, with the sharpest display around. It’s no powerhouse and the screen’s not the biggest out there, but we don’t mind. Because it’s cute.
LG’s first glasses-free 3D phone is a heavy, fat monster, with a clever 3D effect that works rather well. As a smartphone, though, it’s heavy and underwhelming.
A very shiny thing from Sony Ericsson, with a 3.7″ screen and Android 2.3.3 inside. But is it exciting enough to win fans in today’s spec-obsessed market? Can man live on one core alone?
INQ’s Android phone is an interesting “boutique” piece of hardware, packed with unique interface customisations that go far beyond the headline Facebook integration. We like it a lot.
