While, tech enthusiasts were expecting Samsung to release the much anticipated Galaxy Tab S3 at the IFA 2016 Berlin event, the same did not happen. In fact, the tech giant did not announce anything about the next gen tablet. This has left people wondering about possible Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 release date, specs and price details.

Talking about Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 specs and features, the upcoming tablet is expected to get rolled out in two variants, one with a 9.7-inch screen and the other with an 8-inch display. The Galaxy Tab S3 is expected to feature a Qualcomm Snapdragon 652 processor with 3GB of RAM, a 32GB to 64GB internal storage capacity, and a 4,000 mAh battery,  reported Christian Daily. It is speculated to feature an 8-megapixel (MP) rear camera and a 2MP front-facing snapper. The next gen tablet is expected to come preloaded with the new Android Nougat operating system and apps like Android Play, Google Browser, Now on Tap, and the new improved Doze. It is rumored to be thinner and lighter as compared to its predecessors.

Back in June, popular leakster Evan Blass posted a supposed leaked photo of the Galaxy Tab S3. The picture, which was obtained from an anonymous source, showed the device with the familiar home button at the bottom of the front of the screen. The device looked exactly as the Galaxy Tab S2.

However, Samsung fans ruled out the picture to be a fake one as the gadget's back button was apparently too close to the home button. In fact, Blass himself clarified in a later tweet that the picture was not of Galaxy Tab S3 but Tab A 10.1.

As far as price of the Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 is concerned, the 32 GB version is expected to cost around $399, with prices going higher for other storage options, reported VineReport. We would advise our readers to take the information with a grain of salt as nothing yet about Galaxy Tab S3 release date, specs and price have been announced by the makers.
