Samsung recently revealed a 7.7-inch tablet, alongside an 8.9-inch option at an IFA trade show in Berlin. Samsung also sells a 10.1-inch version of its Galaxy tablet.
The Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus will arrive in Indonesia and Austria at the end of October. In the weeks and months to follow, it will make its way to the U.S., Europe and other countries. No pricing details have been revealed about the tablet at this moment.
The Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus joins this week's tablet news alongside Amazon's Kindle Fire tablet. The Android Fire made its debut last Wednesday at an Amazon press conference. Its features have some similarities to Samsung's new tablet. The one key difference however is the Kindle Fire's known price tag of $199.
These tablets have now officially joined the ever increasing Android-based tablet market.
