After the recent controversy generated by Samsung’s explosive Galaxy Note 7, the company plans to redeem itself with the release of the Gold Edition Galaxy TabPro S. Its predecessor was included in our best Windows 10 Hybrid’s list, so we hope this release can perform miracles.

The lurid remake of the already lithe Galaxy TabPro S tablet runs Windows 10 and has an Intel Core M processor. After the unveiling of the Galaxy TabPro S at CES in January, the Korean brand decided to upgrade some of its features in addition to gilding the device. The latest sixth generation Intel Core M processor model comes with 8GB of RAM, a 256GB SSD solid state hard drive and a battery that should be good for 10.5 hours of video playback.

It hasn’t even been an entire year since the PC replacement debuted and Samsung is already taking big leaps with its Galaxy TabPro S by introducing double memory space and storage than their previous release. The gold-finished model possesses a sleek and svelte metal bling body, is only a quarter-inch thin, and weighs only 1.53 pounds. The 2-in-1 Galaxy TabPro S also holds a detachable keyboard with integrated touchpad. The keyboard is connected via the Pogo pin connector eliminating the need for pairing or individual charging.

Additionally, Samsung Flow allows for unified connectivity between the Galaxy TabPro S and your Samsung handset. Now users can get instant phone notifications and incoming calls right on their convertible.

Though there is nothing much innovative in the model apart from the gold finish on its magnesium alloy body. The Galaxy TabPro S Gold Edition packs the same 12-inch Super AMOLED Full HD display, a 2.2 GHz Intel M3 processor and a 5MP front facing as well as rear-facing cameras. Another difference lies in the entire package costing you $999.99. It goes on sale at Best Buy and Samsung.com starting today. If you are not a fan of this tablet’s design, a more restrained version with 4GB of RAM and 128GB of storage goes for for $799.99, $100 less than before on Samsung’s site. There is also a TabPro Pen up for purchase that users can utilize for inking experience pleasures.
