The Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 is a 7-inch tablet that makes phone calls Samsung has debuted their Galaxy Tab 3 this week, a low-end 7-inch tablet with one interesting feature, it can make phone calls if you buy the 3G model.
The device keeps the same style as Samsung's recent devices like the Note 8.0, and will debut in white.

Galaxy Tab 3s run on a dual-core 1.2GHz processor, have dual 3/1.5MP cameras, 16GB internal storage and the aforementioned 7-inch screen with a weak 1024x600 resolution.

The tab will run on Android 4.1 at launch, and be powered by 1GB RAM. The same 4,000 mAh battery as its predecessor is standard.

We put the Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra through a very, very long review process. The $1800 mopping robot vacuum is almost perfect, but its obstacle avoidance was surprisingly bad, considering the price - and compared to its competitors.
