The new report corroborates another report earlier this year that mentioned that Samsung plans to introduce a tablet around the 12 inch mark. It is believed that it’ll have the same screen resolution as that on the Nexus 10 ie 2560×1600. This would make it one of the most crisp displays out there. Interestingly, Apple is also believed to be working on a larger tablet of their own and this could be seen as Samsung’s move to compete with Cupertino for that audience.
