While Samsung failed to sweep gadget freaks off their feet at this year's MWC (Mobile World Congress), especially those waiting with bated breath for the Galaxy S8 and S8 Plus flagship smartphones launch, the South Korean handset maker did announce the equally anticipated Galaxy Tab S3 at the recently concluded Barcelona event. The Galaxy S8 and its purported larger variant, the Galaxy S8 Plus has not ceased floating around the rumor mill.

Despite the hype surrounding Samsung's upcoming flagship smartphones, the recently unveiled, high-end Galaxy Tab S3 could actually play a significant part in the company's endeavor to amend its run down reputation thanks to the now defunct, Galaxy Note 7. Let's delve straight into the new tablet's specs and features to understand how it could revive the Galaxy brand.
