The Pro 4 is looks almost identical to its predecessor, but it’s thinner while still retaining the full-size USB port.

It’s been known for a while that Samsung has plans for a gargantuan tablet featuring an 18.4-inch display. First teased early in September, the slate is considerably larger than even the pro-level tablets like the Microsoft Surface Pro 4 and Apple’s new iPad Pro. Unlike those aforementioned, the Galaxy View’s appeal is to be found in the novelty of its massive display as opposed to the under-hood features, with GFXBench having pointed to a mid-range assortment of specs. Still, the sheer size of the Galaxy View is such that it’s hard to ignore, and SamMobile has shared a few new images of the … – Source
