Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 set to be first Intel-powered Android slate

Intel may be about to muscle its way into the Android tablet market as reports surface that the rumoured Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 will sport an Atom processor.
We've already seen a handful of Android smartphones pack Intel's tech under the hood, with the Orange San Diego and Motorola Razr i producing impressive performance from single-core Atom chips.
Once again it's a benchmark result spotted by the guys over at SamMobile that has piqued our interest, with the GLBenchmark site stating that both the GT-P5200 and GT-P5210 variants (that's Wi-Fi only and Wi-Fi + 3G to you) will pack a 1.6GHz dual-core Atom Z2560 processor.
It's what's on the inside that counts

In terms of that 10.1-inch display the Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 screen is claimed to have a resolution of 1280 x 800 - so no full HD offering, which is a disappointment - plus the results reveal it will come running Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean.
If the Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 - that's quite a mouthful - does go from fantasy to fiction than it will line up alongside the already announced Galaxy Tab 3 7.0, plus the rumoured Galaxy Tab 3 8.0 to complete a trio of new tablets for the Korean firm, and with sub-par specs you do really have to wonder how it will fare in the market.
Benchmark results can be easily forged though, so we're approaching this one with caution and we'd be surprised if Samsung moved away from the ARM based chips its used in all its previous mobile devices.

Intel Makes Galaxy Tab 3 the Fastest Android Tablet

A report from GL Brenchmark suggests that Samsung may be switching from processors based on UK-based ARM Holdings’ designs to Intel’s x86 architecture on its newest tablet. Specs and benchmarks for what is believed to be Samsung’s third generation and un-announced tablet series show the device running on a Clover Trail Atom processor made from Intel.

GL Benchmark shows that both the WiFi and the 3G variants of the Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 were clocked. The device is said to pack a dual-core Intel Atom processor clocked at 1.6 GHz with the company’s Hyper-Threading technology for boosted performance. A PowerVR SGX 544 MP2 GPU was also present and the display has a standard 1280 X 800-pixel resolution and not the high resolution screen that’s found on the Samsung-made Nexus 10.

With a dual-core Atom processor, the device scored some impressive performance, making it competitive against quad-core ARM chips like the Qualcomm Snapdragon 600 and the Exynos 5 Octa processor. According to Sam Mobile, the Antutu benchmark score is “the highest score we have seen on any tablet device,” and bests the dual-core Exynos 5 processor found on the Nexus 10.

Samsung announces Galaxy Tab 3, Wi-Fi version goes on sale in May

Samsung has realised that budget tablet market is more lucrative than high-end tablets, which hardly sell. If these features are any indication, we can expect to see $150-$169 price-tag for the Wi-Fi version.

The tablet will be competing with Acer’s Iconia B1, HP Slate 7 and Asus Fonepad tablets.

As you can see in the image, Samsung is using Galaxy Note 8.0 like design with Tab 3 with physical Home button back in tablets.
