Samsung
is gearing up to unveil its latest flagship tablet, dubbed Galaxy Tab S3. Ahead
of the official announcement, speculated to be held at MWC 2016, the Tab S3 has
been spotted in recent GFXBench results.
Coincidentally, the 9.7-inch Galaxy Tab S2 was the SM-T810. There is also an
SM-T719 seen, which is believed to be the 8.0-inch model of the Galaxy Tab S3,
since the Galaxy Tab S2 of that same size was the SM-T710.
The
SM-T819's display is the only one listed, noted to be a 9.7-inch 2048x1536,
exactly the same as the Galaxy Tab S2. There's also 3 GB of RAM, again the same
size as the predecessor. Even the 8 megapixel main camera and 2 megapixel front
camera seem to be similar.
The key
difference between the two is the CPU. The Galaxy Tab "S3" is
believed to run on a Qualcomm Snapdragon 652, a higher mid-range chip that is
composed of four energy efficient Cortex-A53 cores and four high performance
Cortex-A72 cores running at 1.8 GHz. Whether that's actually an improvement
over the previous generation's Exynos chip is yet to be seen.
And we
might actually get to see it soon indeed. It is believed that this tablet,
whatever its name will be, will also debut at MWC 2016 in just a few more days.
Of course, it will most likely take a lesser place in Samsung's event, but it
could still give some Android tablet fans something to chew on these coming
days.
