Sources are indicating Samsung is planning to update the Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 10.1 to a slightly newer version officially dubbed the Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 VE 10.1. The VE part stands for “Value Edition” and the only change from the current model is to start using a Snapdragon 410 processor instead of the current Snapdragon 400 processor.
Although the change in processor is slight, it does have some significant implications. That is because the Snapdragon 410 is a 64-bit processor while the 400 is only 32-bit. This means this newer version of the Samsung tablet will be able to benefit from the 64-bit code included in Android Lollipop.
The updated version of the Galaxy Tab 4 10.1 will join the Galaxy Tab 4 8.0 with the new Snapdragon 410 processor. The smallest tablet in the line, the Galaxy Tab 4 7.0, has not yet been updated, but there is a good chance that could occur soon.
Since Samsung is upgrading the Galaxy Tab 4 line with these new 64-bit chips, sources believe Android Lollipop is headed their way. This may also point to Samsung not releasing a Galaxy Tab 5 line of devices any time soon.
