CES 2014: Samsung to unveil Galaxy Note Pro and Galaxy Tab Pro tablets

Though Samsung has been tight-lipped about what it plans to showcase at the CES 2014, the CES billboard has a lot to reveal. A bill board posted at the Las Vegas Convention Center gives a glimpse of the Galaxy Tab Pro and Galaxy Note Pro to be unveiled at the show.
 
The billboard doesn’t mention any features of the device and there’s no inkling of the specs either. So, we will have to wait until Samsung’s press event for further details. However, the image gives us a look at a refreshed Flipboard-like UI and also shows email and music apps, along with the Samsung Knox app, photo gallery and local weather information.

Samsung working on Pro tablets isn’t a secret, and it was highly speculated that the company would announce them at the CES 2014. Earlier reports claimed that the company is working on 12.2-inch, 8.4-inch and 10.1-inch Pro tablets. The 12.2-inch tablet among these is likely to be called the Galaxy Note Pro and an alleged snapshot of the device has also been circulating on the web too.
