Samsung likely to launch Galaxy S5 at Barcelona tech show in February

Samsung’s new line of tablets will go on sale in the US on February 13, it has been announced.

Samsung began taking orders for the devices on Tuesday. Unveiled at the International CES gadget show in Las Vegas last month, the new “Pro” tablets feature touch screens that are among the sharpest available.

Samsung is also making models with screens measuring 12.2 inches diagonally — larger than the main iPad and other full-size tablets. The larger display comes with the ability to show four apps on the same screen at once, compared with two for other Samsung devices. IPads and most Android tablets allow for only one at a time.
