As revealed by a leak yesterday (http://www.engadget.com/2015/07/18/samsung-galaxy-tab-s2-leak/), it shrunk both of last year's models (http://www.engadget.com/2014/06/24/samsung-galaxy-tab-s-review/) and killed the widescreen (16 x 10) aspect ratio, instead giving them an iPad-like 4 x 3 format. The company said that'll help "recreate the viewing experience of browsing through traditional print media," and make it easier to read e-books and web pages. On the other hand, less of the screen is now available for watching movies, particularly since both Galaxy Tab S2 models have also taken a step down in resolution from QuadHD to 2,048 x 1,536.
