Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 | 27.81cm (11.0") LCD Display | 4nm Processor | 8,000 mAh Battery | Dolby Atmos Quad Speakers | Android 12.0 | 8GB+128GB | 12GB+256GB | Wi-Fi | 5G | S Pen Support | Graphite

The Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 is truly remarkable for the price I got it for. I got it for 38000 (using SBI Credit Card) in the Great Indian Sale and it is the best sale deal I have got in a while.The device packs a Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 and has a good battery of 8000mah. It can easily last a typical day of use. It also supports Samsung's 45W charger which charges it in an hour. Unfortunately it doesn't come with any charger in the box. But what comes in the box, the sPen is a god-like accessory, a perfect pair with the Tab S8. The sPen is just perfect, be it the low latency, the air gestures, pressure sensitivity and palm rejection, and it's quick charging and long battery.It has a 8GB Ram paired with the 8 Gen 1 and there is no limits for this tablet for what it can do be it gaming or rendering 4K videos.Samsung has created a perfect tablet system over its years of making Galaxy Tabs.The front and rear cameras are good enough for a tablet and serves its purpose for videocalls and document scanning well. The tablet's body is made of Samsung's Armour Aluminium frame which is very classy and feels premium to say the least and enhances the tab's in-hand feel. The Quad Speakers tuned by AKG are on point and are perfect and makes watching videos and movies on a bigger screen extremely immersive. The tab has a side mounted fingerprint sensor which is quick and works well. Samsung's OneUI for tab is just another cherry on top which makes multitasking and animations seem effortless. The app support for sPen is just unreal. It comes with a 128GB storage which is sufficient but in case it might not be enough for some it even has an expandable storage upto 1TB! This can be a good laptop replacement for many users as Samsung DeX feels amazing on this device.The only drawback that I feel is the TFT LCD display and it is sad that I won't be able to enjoy Samsung's Super Amoled. Even an IPS panel could have made it a little better. The screen is an 11" 1600x2560 which feels perfect in size for simple tab usage and for carrying it everywhere and the resolution makes everything sharp. Also it is impossible to get the Official Tab S8 book cover, I purchased a Tab S7 book cover and it works indifferently.But looking at the price to overall performance I would give the Tab S8 a solid 10/10 as Android Tablets below this price which can be considered are only Xiaomi Pad 5 (8GB RAM/SD860) for 29K and doesn't come with a Xiaomi Pen (extra 6000) even. And I got this for 38K with sPen in box.I am overall extremely happy with what Samsung has made and will recommend this Tablet for anyone looking for an Android Tablet with medium budget and is looking for something which will compete with iPad 2021 models or iPad Minis.Great job Samsung

Tab S series is very good and keep improving with each generation but this one is not really worth it at full price.TLDR; Very good purchase at around 35-40k price. S pen built in is very helpful. Battery lasts long. Performance is very good.Performance: SD 8 gen 1 is now an old flagship processor but it still has more than enough power to do any multitasking and gaming smoothly. 3 window concurrently is very helpful. The software experience is clean and fluid. Samsung utilities are amazing and handy. No lag or stutter or overheating observed in 4 months of usageBattery: 8000 mAh is more than sufficient to last a few days with normal usage or video playback and games and productivity. Battery easily lasts 3-4 days for me. Charging with 20W PD charger takes 1.5 hours and is reasonably fastDisplay: 11 inch display is perfect for being portable and big enough to be useful. Refresh rate of 120Hz makes the whole experience really smooth. Display is reasonably bright and colour reproduction is good for an LCD screen. Do note that this display is NOT HDR CAPABLE. So if that is a requirement, you need to look at S9 series or S8+.Audio: Quad speaker setup and Dolby audio feature is amazing and very loud for its size. Reproduction is very nice.S pen is the biggest USP for this tab and with OneUI 6 (Android 14) currently the whole experience is amazing and worth the price, i purchased for 36k in Oct 2023.

It has a good display, a durable build, good design, good speakers, and a great software. There is no headphone jack, which I'll never forgive apple for, but alas, this is the world we live in now. You can still use a dongle, but that can become a problem when gaming.See, the only problem with this display is that the bezels aren't thick enough. Yes - thicker bezels are better for a tablet, to a point. See, when you hold a device larger than say, 7 inches, you can't hold it just by the back. You'd want some place to put your fingers so that you can balance it. That's the screen bezels, and because they're too thin here, you'll get a lot of accidental touches. The plus and ultra sizes are worse in this regard, but at those sizes you're being foolish if you don't put a keyboard case on.The metal is very premium and nice to feel, but it is slippery, so you have to have a hand somewhat free while holding it.The S-pen attaches to three places: at the back, on the side with the power and volume buttons, and on the side directly opposite to that. The latter two aren't "official" places to put the pen though, so you have to be a little precise, lest the pen shall fall on its own. As for the functionality, it can do everything an apple pencil stylus can (on a compatible iPad tablet) and more. The only exception is the newest rotate feature, but that's not present in comparable iPad tablets either, so let's just ignore that.You don't get a charger in the box, thanks to the oh-so-nature-loving-capitalists (apple), but again, that's the world we live in now.It also heats up a little on the back, near the top. But that's only during heavy usage, not using the S-pen. And it doesn't get uncomfortable at any point.Normally you'd want to put it down on a table or your laptop when you're using it, unless you're just watching videos or something, because this tablet needs both hands to be held securely.That's my experience, everything else works well.

Great purchase. I had an iPad Air. This one is superior in almost every aspect in terms of hardware. Somehow iPad looks fresh, but the writing experience on Samsung is WOW! Excellent addition to the Android and Windows ecosystem.Alas, the tabs are getting too big. This was the last one that was just right sized.

Got it for 35k in Oct sale working smoothy after 3 years no heating ultra setting game play.
