The Samsung site SamMobile published an image on Tuesday of what appears to be the Galaxy Note 8, the 8-inch Note successor that will bridge the gap between the Galaxy Note 2 and the Galaxy Note 10.1.
The photo shows a large-looking white tablet with several specifications listed under the Spanish-language word "especificaciones."
These specs include an 8-inch 1280 x 800 display, 16GB of storage with a microSD slot, a 1.6GHz quad core processor, 2GB of RAM, 5- and 1.3-megapixel rear and front cameras, and, of course, the Note series' signature S-Pen.
It was only on Monday that Samsung Mobile Communications president J.K. Shin confirmed that the Samsung Galaxy 8 would make its official debut at Mobile World Congress (MWC) in February.
That report corroborated rumors from the week before that the big/small Galaxy Note tablet would appear at the Barcelona trade show.
MWC 2013 could see the unveiling of several high profile devices, not least of which might be Samsung's Galaxy S4, according to another Tuesday report.
The Galaxy Note 8 is named for its 8-inch size, and not because it's the eighth Galaxy Note, which it isn't.
The mid-sized tablet will compete with Apple's iPad mini, Amazon's Kindle Fire HD, and Google's Nexus 7
.
Tuesday's SamMobile report also claimed that the Galaxy Note 8 (previously known under the codename "Kona") would sport Andriod 4.2: Jelly Bean and a 4600mAh battery.
There's no way to know for sure whether the device in the image that was leaked on Tuesday really is the Galaxy Note 8, but either way we'll know exactly what it looks like by the end of next month.
