Samsung, the South Korean tech giant might be preparing itself to release the next version of Galaxy Tab S2 in February at MWC 2017. Already, reports have popped up on internet related to what is being expected in the new Galaxy Tab S3.

Samsung already made confirmations that it won't be revealing the new flagship smartphones Galaxy S8 and Galaxy Note 8 in the upcoming Mobile World Congress (MWC) event in Barcelona. However, MWC event is the platform in which company had earlier announced the Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge devices. With this denial of not unveiling the smartphones, enthusiasts believe that the device which is likely to appear in the MWC 2017 from Samsung is the Galaxy Tab S3.

According to iT Wire, it is reported that Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 has already gained the US Federal Communications Commission approval. This approval is required before any device with a modem (Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and LTE) can be sold in the US. Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 was earlier leaked on GFX Bench test having model numbers SM-T820 and SM-T825 (LTE).

According to T3, Galaxy Tab S3 leaked on GFX Bench online was seen with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 quad-core CPU with Adreno 530 graphics and running with a hefty 4GB of RAM. Also, it is reported that Galaxy Tab S3 listed had a 12-megapixel rear camera with autofocus, flash and HDR capabilities plus a 5-megapixel front-facing selfie snapper.

The storage is listed as 24GB which is likely after taking away the operating system meaning it'll most likely come with a 32GB storage option, Android 7.0 Nougat OS, microSD slot, USB-C, fast charge, 3.5mm audio and an optional keyboard/cover

Samsung may release the new premium Galaxy Tab S3 at the Mobile World Congress at the end of February. Stay tuned for more updates.
