The Galaxy Tab S8 is probably the best option for most people out of Samsung’s flagship tablet line. The 11in display is the ideal size – big enough to work on, small enough to use in one hand – and specs are strong despite the affordable price.

Excellent flagship performance, Long-term software support, Slim, lightweight design, S Pen stylus included

Claim to leadership. Samsung aims to leave the competition in the dust with its new premium tablet Galaxy Tab S8 5G. A case out of Armor Aluminum, a high-end Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 SoC, a 120 Hz screen, and the Samsung S Pen are just a few of the hardware ingredients that the manufacturer offers.
