Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 released with unbeatable performance ever offered

On February 9th, Samsung has removed the curtain after all the leaks and rumors by launching the Galaxy Tab S8 series tablets. The standard variant of this lineup is quite similar to Galaxy Tab S8 Plus and we named it Galaxy Tab S8 Lite.

While the Galaxy Tab S8 and Tab S8 Plus both sport a dual-camera setup at the rear with a 13MP primary camera and 6MP ultrawide. There’s also a 12MP front-facing camera used primarily as a webcam. It supports facial recognition as well, but fingerprint sensors certainly are more secure on either device.

The Galaxy Tab S8, in particular, places its fingerprint sensor on the power button, leaving room only for such a sensor under the Tab S8+ display. The 120Hz screen refresh rate tech is shared across both the models, and so are the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor, 8GB of RAM, and 128/256 GB storage with further room for expansion.

Samsung Galaxy Tab S8

Thanks to Auto Switch, your Galaxy Buds will automatically pair from your Galaxy Tab S8 to your Galaxy S22, so users can move between devices without missing a beat. And for the first time, Samsung Health is available on Galaxy tablets so you can browse fitness videos for workout content and keep track of your health and fitness data from your Galaxy Watch on a larger screen.

You can also turn Galaxy Tab S8 into a portable second monitor with touchscreen capabilities for Galaxy PCs for side-by-side multitasking. And enhancements to Samsung Dex – a convenient desktop experience that takes the Galaxy Tab S8 from tablet mode to desktop mode – now allows transparent app windows and DeX mirroring for when you want to share your tablet’s screen on an external display.

In today’s always-connected world, security is more important than ever, which is why all three Galaxy Tab S8 models are equipped with new features that give the ability to track when your tablet’s camera and microphone are in use and allow you to instantly block all app access to prevent unwanted recording.

The Galaxy Tab S8 Series is also protected by Samsung’s industry-leading Knox Vault platform, which encrypts personal data and keeps stored files and information isolated from the device’s main operating system to safeguard it from attacks. All members of the lineup sport an intuitive fingerprint scanner that enables single-touch device unlocking.

Samsung is also proud to help reduce ocean-bound plastic and protect the planet, with the Galaxy Tab S8 partially constructed with plastic components repurposed from discarded fishing nets. Samsung is helping lead the industry by employing this practice.

The Galaxy Tab S8 devices also come in Samsung’s slimmest packaging to date, made from sustainably-sourced paper, which enables the company to lower emissions and produce less waste.
