The Samsung Galaxy Tab S3's launch is drawing near. The rumor mill has consistently revealed plenty of information on the specifications of the device. Here are some of the best features that are expected to arrive on Galaxy Tab S3:
Dual-Edge Curved Display
Samsung is expected to unleash a tablet that is pegged to feature a dual-edge curved display like its flagship phones like Galaxy S7 and Galaxy Note 5. The 9.6-inch AMOLED curved screen is expected to support a resolution of 2,048 x 1,536 pixels with support for an aspect ratio of 4:3, Indian Gizmo reported.
S-Pen Stylus
The Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 is expected to be the first ever tablet from the company that would be coming with support for a stylus. Rumors do not suggest a stylus compartment on the device, indicating that it would be available as a separate accessory.
Keyboard Folio
Just as the Surface Pro 4 and iPad Pro come with additional accessories for keyboard, the Galaxy Tab S3 is also rumored to come with additional accessories such as keyboard folio and book cover case, Sam Mobile reported.
Powerful Tablet
The Galaxy Tab S3 is rumored to come in two chipset variants. Some markets are going to receive the home-baked Exynos 7420 chipset variant whereas other markets will be treated with Snapdragon 820 chipset. Both variants are expected to include 4 GB of RAM.
USB Type-C
The Galaxy Tab S3 is going to the first ever tablet from the company to arrive with a USB Type-C port. Hence, it is also expected to carry support for fast charging.
Android 7.0 Nougat
The tablet was slated to get announced in IFA 2016 tech trade show in September last year. However, its arrival was pushed to the Q1 of this year reportedly because of the Galaxy Note 7 debacle that happened in the same month. If the tablet would have been announced at that time, it would have arrived with Android 6.0 Marshmallow. However, now that the tablet is slated to get announced later this month, it is heavily pegged to deliver Android 7.0 Nougat experience out-of-the-box.
The MWC 2017 event on Feb. 26 is the platform Samsung will use to unveil the Galaxy Tab S3. It is also expected to showcase a teaser of Galaxy S8 at the event.
