It is the successor to the Galaxy Tab Active 2 released in 2017. The new table can also be regarded as the budget-friendly alternative to 2019’s Tab Active Pro.
The Galaxy Tab Active3 features an 8-inch IPS LCD screen just like its predecessor but the resolution has been bumped up from 1280 x 800 to 1920 x 1200 pixels. The display has a touch sensitivity option that allows users to operate it even with gloves on.

The Galaxy Tab Active3 has a single 13MP autofocus camera on the back and a 5MP front-facing camera. The camera app has certain features such as barcode scanning.
Samsung has also included NFC, face recognition, a fingerprint scanner, an IP68 S Pen that is stored at the top of the tablet, an extra button called the Active Key which can be programmed to launch most used apps or for launching Push to Talk. The tablet also has Wi-Fi 6, Samsung DeX, support for ARCore, runs Android 10, and is MIL-STD-810H certified.
The Galaxy Tab Active3 has a removable 5050mAh battery with support for fast charging via USB and POGO pins.
