Before we head over to the main point of this post let me just explain some stuff you might have not know yet. There were two types of Galaxy Tab 8s and 10s that got announced. One is the Tabs that were unveiled and introduced during the Mobile World Congress 2011 in Barcelona, Spain. The second Tabs were introduced during CTIA 2011 in Orlando, Florida. So what's difference between the two of them? Aside from the fact that at the MWC 2011, Samsung only announced the 10-inch tablet while in CTIA 2011, the company announced the 8-inch tablet along side the revamped 10-incher. After a few days or so, Samsung renamed the larger tablet announced during MWC 2011 from Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 to Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1v (click for more info).
