Terry McGraw of noted book publisher McGraw-Hill announced some very [not really] shocking and exciting news during his interview on CNBC. McGraw openly blabbed about how books from his publishing company will be featured on the new Apple tablet that is being announced “tomorrow.” McGraw also said that his company had been working out this content deal with Apple for a long time [ouch] and that the “tablet will be based on the iPhone operating system” [double ouch].

Whether he speaks the truth, is completely lying or just misinformed— we still think Terry McGraw might be getting a very angry phone call from someone wearing a black long sleeve turtle-neck, light denim jeans and casual tennis shoes—if you catch our drift.

Now watch the magic happen in this video…

TCL just refreshed the Tab A1 Plus with its NXTPAPER tech and a bigger battery

The new model costs $70 more than the original, though a launch discount brings it down to $299.

TCL has refreshed its budget Tab A1 Plus tablet, and the new model comes with two significant upgrades. As its name suggests, the new Tab A1 Plus NXTPAPER features TCL's in-house paper-like display tech that emulates an e-ink display on an LCD. In addition, the tablet now packs a substantially larger battery.

Samsung is once again betting on MediaTek to power its flagship tablet

Samsung’s flagship tablets could go a third year without a Qualcomm chip

Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra Pen Up live drawing

Samsung appears ready to place another major bet on MediaTek for its most expensive Android tablet. After using the Dimensity 9300+ inside the Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra and the Dimensity 9400+ in last year’s Tab S11 Ultra, the company may stick with the chipmaker for a third consecutive generation.

A new Geekbench listing linked to the Galaxy Tab S12 Ultra now gives that possibility more weight. The device carries the model number SM-X946B, closely following the SM-X936B used by its predecessor. Its processor configuration points toward MediaTek’s Dimensity 9500. The chip features one prime core, three performance cores, and four efficiency cores, while the fastest core reaches 4.21GHz. Those details rule out Qualcomm’s last two flagship Snapdragon processors.
