I love this thing! I was in need of a tablet and my immediate idea was to get an iPad. I'm glad i didn't. The 11" screen on the Tab S8 is the best LCD panel I've ever seen. The overall body of the device feels sturdy and the weight feels comfortable to hold for hours. This has become my default my default media device. I read, watch TV and movies, Write quick ideas down with the included S Pen. I'm a fan!

It is very fast and responsive. The quality of the device and its display is very good. It is better than a phone for reading and more convienent than a laptop.

I bought this tablet a few days ago, so it's still very new, but I really like it so far. But the thing that has marred my enjoyment of this upgrade in tablets is that it didn't come with a charger and despite talking to a Best Buy rep about the features of this and other Samsung tablets, it was never mentioned that I would need to purchase a charger because it wasn't included. And there was no indication on the box that the charger was sold separately.
I didn't go into Best Buy knowing I wanted a Samsung, so I didn't read any of the articles that would have made me aware of that fact, so I was totally reliant on the signage in Best Buy, the rep in Best Buy (who otherwise was wonderful and very helpful), and the exterior of the box, which was under lock and key so I didn't get to touch until I bought it.
It was very disappointing when I got home and opened up the box to see that there was no charger. And the cable did not have a USB so it was not compatible with any of my other chargers or computer.
If I bought this online, I would chalk it up to my error. But I had a person answering questions about this and other Samsung tablets. A charger is a vital accessory. I should have been asked if I had a charger that would work with the tablet or needed one as some point and I wasn't. I shouldn't have had to find out when I was opening the box. I shouldn't have had to go back to the electronic store when I was there in the first place! Can you imagine how much more disappointing it would have been if this was a gift?!
If this is not something taught to the reps in that area, then that's a HUGE failing of Best Buy.

The best tablet display I have ever seen. It is well made and relatively fast. The S Pen is also well designed although it would be better to have a place to "tuck it in" instead of magnetically attached,

This tablet is good enough on use, I downloaded GoPro app and installed 250 GB memory to do Video editing while I was traveling. I uploaded 200 GB video and did video edit, it handled very well.
I was happy with my purchase it is better then carry laptop. also pen was very helpful. comparing with other similar tablets this one is good enough for price. I got when there was promotion period so regular price was 699 I got for 499, it was good deal.
even for 699 I can say it is good. planning to buy another one.

Everything about this device is amazing! We've always had Apple tablets because that's all that was really available. We fell into the trap but after doing alot of research, the Samsung tablets just stood out more and more, which made my choice easier. Included S Pen, more accessories coming out, oS update for 4 years and now an Amoled screen for the 11inch S9 version! I can see more Apple users coming to the Samsung side! Lastly the ability to add memory, c'mon thats just icing and topping you love on the already delicious preverbial cake! I am now a happily converted Samsung customer!

I bought it as a present for my mom, but I see her use it all the time, it's light so she can easily carry it, and it's very intuitive for her. Overall it was a great purchase.

I have gone through enough tablets, laptops, convertable and not to know a good device when I have one and within a week, this tablet has become my absolute favorite. The pen is a must and is so intuitive with the OS, apps, and screen that it just feels normal. The screen is crisp and responsive, the speed and fluidity is amazing and the sound is perfect. Cannot recomend more.

I am very happy with this tablet, it does everything I wanted and more! I was not as happy with the customer service at Best Buy at theAvenues. Initially I had someone from Samsung " help" (I guess the Bestbuy staff was too busy) and he was not very knowledgeable. When I finally decided on the tablet, someone on the BestBuy staff took over and tried very hard to sell me a warranty for over 1/3 the price of the tablet I had just purchased. I always had good experiences with BestBuy before this time, and I'm not sure I will go back.

So far, I have loved my Samsung tablet. Zach was very helpful in making suggestions based on what I would be using the tablet for. There’s a little bit of a relearning curve as I am transitioning back to Samsung from an iPad, but so far it has been good. The only problem is keeping the pen attached. It has what seems like a strong magnetic hold, but if I am not careful, the pen comes off when I pick up the tablet. My old Samsung had the pen that slid into the lower side of the tablet.

Write-On❗️Galaxy Tab S8 11”

The Samsung Galaxy S8 11” does everything I expected given my previous experience with Samsung Tabs. The software is relatively intuitive with the settings & range of options located where you’d expect them to be. It’s a bit expensive compared to anything else other than its Apple equivalent, but the option for an additional & removable storage chip is the difference for Me. Apple otherwise the best & exceptional hardware, while Samsung is far better in the user friendly software arena.
