The successor to the high-end Galaxy Tab S series, Samsung's upcoming tablets will reportedly be announced in the month of June. While there isn't any official confirmation confirming the imminent launch of the tablets, recent leaks suggest that the Galaxy Tab S2 will be offered in 8-inch and 9.7-inch variants.

As for the specs, both tablets are expected to feature Super AMOLED displays with a resolution of 2048 x 1536 (in a 4:3 ratio like the Nexus 9), 64-bit octa-core Exynos processor, 3GB RAM, minimum of 32GB storage, microSD card slot, Wi-Fi 802.11 ac/b/g/n, LTE Category 6 connectivity along with an 8MP camera at the back and a 2.1MP shooter up front. Software-wise, the Galaxy Tab S2 will run Android 5.0 out of the box.

Like the Galaxy Tab S series, Samsung will offer the Galaxy Tab S2 in Wi-Fi only and LTE-enabled variants, although unlike last year, it looks like all versions will be powered by Samsung's in-house Exynos processor.
