The design of the Galaxy Tab S range is similar to the recently launched Galaxy S5 smartphone, with a perforated textured back and smooth curved edge. Interesting to note is the tablets also will have the S5 smartphone fingerprint sensor as well. The camera is an 8-megapixel rear camera with LED flash and a 2.1-megapixel camera on the front of the device for video calling.

The Galaxy Tab S range will run on an Android 4.4 KitKat OS and it will include a number of special features on board. The device will be able to answer calls!  The Ultra Power Saving mode from the Galaxy S5 and the LTE model will offer a Wi-Fi Booster function as well, to allow for quicker download speeds.
The Galaxy Tab S will be available in the US from this July with the 10.5-inch model coming in at $499 and the 8.4-inch at $399. Samsung has said other regions and availability dates would vary.
