Additionally, the device has 802.11gbn Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 3.0, USB 2.0 Host, A-GPS, accelerometer, digital compass and light sensors. The tablet will be 1.3 pounds and be 9.7mm thick.

The Galaxy Tab 2 will run on Android 4.0 mixed with Samsung's TouchWiz UI overlay. The device will have a large 7000mAh battery, as well.

There was no word on price, but the device will be available next month, before the expected launch of the iPad 3.
