Customers are saying

Customers enjoy the Galaxy Tab S8's large screen size, the included S-Pen, and its long battery life. Positive feedback also highlights the tablet's ease of use and strong performance.

    I already have an S2 which was a very good tablet in it's time. But I needed to get a new tablet because the S2 was to old for security updates. Spending several hours reviewing new tablets i bought the S8 with 128 gig. At the same time Best Buy had a 512 gig microSD card on sale for $79. This combo is awesome. Tablet is fast, excellent screen for viewing movies, video or any type of visual effects. Camera is excellent but a little less quality than the camera on my S22 ultra phone. I expect many years of use. Been a Samsung fan for many years and never have had any of their devices fail. Just become obsolete many years later. If your looking the best tablet look no further. This is the one to get.

    It's a pretty powerful laptop, and amazing for note and saving files. I just entered college this 2023, and I have been using this tablet for each of my classes. The fact that it comes with a pen makes it even better. Also great quality, for whenever I watch shows during studying breaks.

    Solid tablet, like the S-pen much more than expected, battery is good, as expected some android apps are wonky on tablet but 90% work just fine. Do yourself a favor and ditch the stock launcher and try Niagra instead. Haven't tried the camera at all. Worth it vs pixel and oneplus purely for the EXCELLENT stylus.

    This tablet is really fast. SPen is extremely accurate. You can put in a micro-SD card for additional space. I use this for note taking at meetings and I can take my notes and make them smaller so it fits better on 1 page. The camera is pretty good. I got a case for it and did not put on a screen protector. You will not be disappointed.

    Absolutely love my tablet. Was considerably less expensive than the comparable iPad and also came with a stylus. It's fast and has an excellent screen resolution and refresh rate. I use it mostly for pleasure, watching movies and playing games.

    I love this piece of technology! I use this everyday for school! For studying and for leisure. I let my little one watch videos on it when I feel like sharing. I absolutely love Dex mode! I love that I can sync my laptop which is a Samsung galaxy pro 360 and all my notes etc are readily accessible. So many pros to this! Great battery life! Love the s pen!

    I am very happy to choose this tablet. I needed a tablet to study, and I was not sure what could be the best option in the market. When I chose this one, I was skeptical at the beginning, but it exceeded my expectations; it is fast, battery is excellent, and the pen does not freeze!

    Very solid performance and battery life. Would recommend a case because the edges can be uncomfortable to hold. Wish this model had an OLED screen like the other models in this series because the Tab S8+ and Ultra are too large for handheld use.

    I absoluely love this tablet. I had an Ipad previous to this, and while good, just didn't compare to this tablet. The Dex feature paired with a keyboard and trackpad is amazing, a nice replacement for a laptop. Besides the laptop like usage, the tablet experience is equally delightful. With the included S pen, taking notes, handwriting text, and any other tasks are a breeze. However, I am a little displeased with the palm rejection when using the pen, or lack their of, the tablet only rejects any touch input when the tip of the pen is close enough to the screen. The distance is just a tad shorter than I would like. All in all a greate experience even with the small hickup in the palm rejection I'd take this tablet over an Ipad any day.

    It has a great 11 inch screen and the battery life lasts forever. I'm very happy with my open box purchase, the cpu & gpu in it are very high end, it should be more than enough for what anyone wants to do with it, from video editing, office work, streaming & more.
