Samsung's much-rumored Galaxy Tab 3 Lite is no longer a rumor.
Following a surge of recent leaks, the so-dubbed lighter version of the full Galaxy Tab 3 was finally announced by Samsung on Thursday. Many of the features match those of the current Tab 3, while others have been removed. Overall, Samsung is touting the new Lite edition for its "slimmer, more portable design."
Powered by a 1.2 GHz dual-core process, the Tab 3 Lite serves up a 7-inch 1,024x600-pixel display, a 2-megapixel rear camera, 1GB of memory, 8GB of storage, and a microSD card slot that can up the storage to 32GB. Samsung's specs also reveal Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi Direct, 3G, and 2G connectivity along with a 3,600mAh battery rated for up to eight hours of video playback on a single charge.
To shrink the tablet and still retain a 7-inch display, Samsung moved the menu bar from the screen to the bezel.
Samsung didn't spill any details on pricing or launch dates but said the tablet will be available globally in white and black versions. The full 8GB Galaxy Tab 3 retails for $200, so the Lite model will have to sell at a more appealing price to win over buyers.

Do you all know that African Americans make up 3% of IT professionals?
I will not say whether it too could be because this field is male dominant as well as the racial makeup being predominately white. I think we as a people don't attempt to explore and allow our children to explore other alternatives to being successful. We focus so much on our sons being the next Lebron, Kobe or KD that we don't realize that all of our children will not possess the same stamina, perservance, determination, motivation and ultimately God-gifted talent as these individuals as well as our daughters being caretakers, nurses, doctors and lawyers. I'm not saying that they can't be of such but let's open them up to the subjects of Mathematics and Science. We will save our life savings for the next pair of Jordans but we won't empower our children to be the next big fashion designer, shoe maker or business exec for Nike, Reebok and Adidas. Technology is rapidly growing and its ever-changing before you know it technology will be all we have to utilize in that day and age. I, too, am the mother of two boys. I will allow my children the ability to utilize their athleticism if that's what they choose but I will not hinder or omit to show them a world outside of what's played on the field and on a court.
Show your kids another world because you might not know who they might become!
