Speculations centering on the device's launch at IFA 2016 stems from a post published on Samsung's South American website that allegedly mentioned that the Galaxy Tab S3 will be unveiled at the said event held in Germany. The said announcement was later on removed from the website in bid to avoid further uproar, Mobile&Apps reported.

In addition, the South Korean tech firm showed off its new audio and video contraptions at the said event along with some state-of-the-art white goods and presented the latest iteration of the Galaxy Gear S3.
