It looks like Samsung is trying out new more powerful circuit solutions for their upcoming tablet Galaxy Note 10.1. Newly leaked performance data points towards a quad-core Exynos 4412 processor with the Mali-604T GPU which more than doubles the performance compared to the company's current solutions.
Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 were showcased already during the Mobile World Congress 2012 at the end of February and under the hood of the tablet were, except for a dedicated stylus - S Pen - also a dual-core processor. At that time Samsung did not want to reveal what circuit it was, but probobaly it was the same Exynos 4210 SoC which is used in the 5,3 inch device Galaxy Note among others, which is something that more recent specifications also has confirmed.
Even if the Galaxy Note 10.1 probably will be released with an Exynos 4210 processor that earlier data has implied, it looks like Samsung also are trying out their upcoming tablet with alot more powerful circuits.
