Until the Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 and S8+ tablets released in 2022, Android users struggled to find good tablet options to integrate with their Android devices. The main problem with these tablets back then was their expensive prices. Now, both tablets are much more affordable, with the Galaxy Tab S8 tablet starting at $418.56 (originally $699.99) after a 40% discount and the Galaxy Tab S8+ starting at $549.99 (originally $899.99) after a 39% discount. Both are currently at their lowest prices yet, according to price-checking tools.
The Galaxy S8 tablet starts with 128GB of storage and comes with an 11-inch LCD screen with 2,560 by 1,600 pixel resolution. The processor is a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 chipset and it handles wifi 6E. PCMag says they got about 7.5 hours of juice when they were reviewing the tablet.
The Galaxy Tab S8+ is bigger than the regular Tab S8. It has a 12.4-inch AMOLED display with 2,800 by 1,752 pixel resolution. It also has a bigger battery, giving you about an hour or two more of life, depending on use. The Tab S8+ also has the option of 5G connectivity, which the regular Tab S8 lacks. The RAM, storage, ports, operating systems, 13MP rear and 12MP front cameras, and wifi are the same. Both tablets also come with an S Pen stylus.
If these tablets lack the power you’re looking for, the sharper Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra offers more in almost every department, and it’s $400 off right now.
