As is the custom before smartphones and tablets are launched in China, a new Huawei tablet, the Huawei MediaPad T3 8.0 has been certified by Chinese certification site TENAA under the Honor brand, fueling rumours that it could eventually be launched as the Honor Pad 3, even though that might not happen because the device got Wi-Fi certification independently with the model name KOB-L09 last month.
