A photo of the Galaxy Note 8.0 has been leaked by the folks at SamMobile, and it really provokes some thought. Let’s dive deeper into this, shall we? First of all, the device has a speaker grille up top. That’s generally a feature reserved for phones, not tablets. Second, every Samsung Galaxy Tab to my knowledge has had a flash. My original Tab 10.1 had a flash paired with that terrible 5MP camera. This one just has a camera. Then, the back looks a lot like a Galaxy S III. That’s not enough to call it fake, but it’s ugly. I thought that should be mentioned. And lastly, the screenshot has a phone icon, the old weather widget from ICS builds for the old Tab models, and no navbar. The overall design makes little sense.

However, there is a chance this could be real but with a fake screenshot (we hope not). And the specs that come with it are the same ones we’ve heard many times, including the 8″ 1280×800 display, 1.6GHz quad core processor, 2GB of RAM, and the S Pen. What do you guys think? Real or fake? And is it sexy?
