The Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 prepares to face the iPad Pro

Apple's iPad Pro has arrived to try to become the benchmark tablet on the market again. We have said that it does not have a truly powerful rival in the market, but the truth is that the great rival of Apple's tablet could soon arrive, the new Samsung Galaxy Tab S3, which is already preparing its launch, and which has received certification.

Although it has received FCC certification, the truth is that the characteristics that the tablet would have have not been published, so the only data we have so far is that of a benchmark. And the truth is that these data might not be very relevant considering that since they were published the iPad Pro has been launched, and it is necessary to compete against it. However, it is the only thing we have. And according to these data, the tablet would have a 9,7-inch screen with a resolution of 2.048 x 1.536 pixels, probably being a Super AMOLED HD screen. However, the truth is that it is stated that the processor would be the Qualcomm Snapdragon 652, capable of reaching a clock frequency of 1,8 GHz, with a RAM of 3 GB. Not bad, but they are not the technical characteristics of the great Samsung tablet. Android 6.0 Marshmallow would be the version of the operating system with which it would have.

That means that two things can happen. One is that these data are not those of the definitive Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 that will compete with the iPad Pro. And two, that Samsung does not want to launch any Android tablet with which to compete with the iPad Pro. That is, its tablets high-end are with Windows 10, and then have this Samsung Galaxy Tab S3, which is almost high-end, but is not the best on the market.

In any case, we cannot rule out one last possibility either, and it is a Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Pro, which would also use the same surname as the Apple tablet, and which could be an improved version of this tablet with a 9,7-inch screen.
