Prior to its official roll out a few days ago, there have been reports saying that the Galaxy Tab A (2016) will come out of the market next year. The rumors are quite absurd considering the 2016 in the name of the tablet. It is likely that the 10.1-inch variant of the Samsung Galaxy Tab A (2016) and its international release shall happen before the end of the year.
It should be worth noting that the flagship tablet line of Samsung, the Galaxy Tab S has 8-inch and 9.7-inch variants, and is quite different from the Galaxy Tab A (2016) which shall have a 10.1-inch and 7-inch models.
However, only the 7-inch model of the Samsung Galaxy Tab A (2016) has been released to the Korean market thus far., It could be that the 10.1-inch version is meant for the international market. If the 7-inch version has a $430 price, then it is likely that the bigger variant shall come out with a higher price.
The pricing seems more realistic now compared to reports before the official release of the 7-inch Samsung Galaxy Tab A (2016) this month indicating that the two variants of the mid-range tablet from the South Korean tech giant shall have a price range from only $190 to $240, which seems more like the prices of tablet made by manufacturers from China rather than Samsung.
