Galaxy Tab S3 LTE model is rumored to have passed the FCC who regulates qualified specs of devices in USA. Although FCC didn't release the product's name, pictures that emerged from their listing show a similarity with Galaxy Tab S2.9.7 and has dimensions of 237.1 x 168.8 mm.

Galaxy Tab S3 was expected to be released on July 2016 since Samsung issues their Galaxy Tab annually, but the month passed without any news for Tab S3. Reports suggest that Samsung may be looking for the IFA 2016 to introduce the product on the market which will be on this coming month of September.

It is expected to release two versions where one has a screen of 8 inches (smaller model) and the other has a screen of 9.7 in (larger model) which will sport 4G LTE and Bluetooth for connectivity options.

It will also most likely sport Quad-HD which is a 2048x1536 pixel, AMOLED display, a Qualcomm Snapdragon SoC (3GB of RAM and 32GB storage) and an Adreno 510 GPU. Front camera will have a 2Mp resolution while the back camera will sport an 8Mp. It will use a Micro- USB port for charging to be powered by an internal battery of 5,870mAh battery for the Tab S3 9.7in while 4,000mAh for the Tab S3 8in and will expected to be launched using Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow with TouchWiz. This is on contrary of popular belief that it will run using Android Nougat since Nougat will be launched before the Tab S3.

So far the FCC disclosed several features which checked out with the ongoing rumors of the Tab S3's specs. This includes a 9.7″ display, bluetooth 4.2 LE, 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac, a GPS and LTE connection, a CPU clock speed of 1.6 MHz., Camera, 237.1 x 168.8 mm, and a headphone port.

Tech junkies may expect the release of Galaxy Tab S3 on September 1.
