Samsung has unveiled its Galaxy Note 8.0 just ahead of Mobile World Congress, the wireless industry's annual trade show, which starts Monday in Barcelona, Spain. Samsung is launching Galaxy Note 8.0 against the iPad mini, the rival tablet from Apple. The new Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 comes with a 8 inch screen and a stylus which is yet to be seen with any Apple device. The pen like stylus device from Samsung has posed a major challenge to Apple's dominance in both tablets and high-end smartphones. Apple has never ever developed any stylus like device to be used with its products instead it has always preferred to optimize its interfaces for fingers, mice and touchpads.


  
The Galaxy Note 8.0 is not the only tablet coming from Samsung in the mini range. Infact, Samsung has earlier also launched its smaller 7-inch screen tablets as the very first competitor to Apple iPad. Only thing it had missed was Stylus or say, Pen. 

With the launch of Galaxy Note 8.0, Samsung has been able to fill the gap in Samsung's line-up of pen-equipped devices between the Galaxy Note II smartphone, with its 5.5-inch screen, and the Galaxy Note 10.1, a full-size tablet.

Samsung will start selling its new tablet 8.0 in the April to June period. Pricing is yet to be disclosed. More details coming soon..!
