Samsung Reveals Launch Date, Price for Candy-Colored Kids' Tablets

Samsung is getting ready to launch the latest tablet in its lineup, but its target demographic is certainly different this time around.

The Galaxy Tab 3 Kids is a 7-inch Android device designed for both adults and children, allowing users to switch from standard to kids' mode. Although Samsung first announced the tablet in August, it revealed the launch date and price on Monday: The Galaxy Tab 3 Kids will hit markets in the United States starting Nov. 10 for $229.99. Pre-sales begin Nov. 1.

The young demographic for the new Galaxy Tab is based on Samsung's statistic that 70% of tablet owners share the devices with their children. The kid-friendly tablet comes with parental controls and is loaded with educational, entertainment and gaming apps, including Fruit Ninja and Disney's Toy Story: Smash It!. It's also equipped with Wi-Fi, a 3-megapixel rear-facing camera and a 1.3-megapixel front-facing camera. Read more...
