Dive Insight:
Samsung is a company that likes to experiment with new ideas. It started the phablet craze with its Galaxy Note series, while its new Galaxy S6 Edge+ features curved glass.
If the speculation is true, the company may be experimenting to see if people would actually be interested in a larger tablet. If the new devices prove to be as promising as they sound, enterprises might consider such devices for their workers over traditional desktops or laptops.
