Samsung’s Galaxy View 2 is a portable television (17.3-inch 1080p display) and an oversized Android tablet (Oreo 8.1) all at once, measuring 41.7x26.4x1.7cm and weighing in at 2.28kg. Powered by a hefty 12,000mAh battery, the device comes with an Exynos 7884 eight-core chip, 3Gb of RAM and 64Gb of internal storage. It has a front-facing 5-megapixel camera for video calls, but no back camera, probably because you won’t ever want to take pictures with a huge tablet weighing more than 2 kilos. The tablet also comes with built-in 4G LTE connectivity and Dolby Atmos speakers. The Galaxy View 2 is currently only available at AT&T for 740USD, payable in 20 monthly installments of 37USD.
