Customers are saying

Customers are pleased with the Galaxy Tab S8's large screen size, the included S-Pen, and its long battery life. Many also appreciate its ease of use and performance. While some find the price high and the lack of a headphone jack inconvenient, the positive feedback on other features outweighs these concerns. The expandable storage is also a plus for many users.

    Great table I highly recommend it. Has to be one of the best Android tabs on the market. If you have an iPhone I recommend you do not buy the iPad unless you're apple for life and buy this tablet instead. Better screen resolution, more memory, and better speed than the iPad air.

    The best writing experience on a tablet. I found the IPad writing experience to be too loud and unenjoyable without a screen protector that lowers the quality of the screen. This screen is the best on a tablet and you don't have to ruin it by putting a matte screen protector on it for a great writing experience.

    I preferred this tablet over the S9 because the S8 isn't even a year old with the software. There is only slight differences between the two. The screen is a perfect size. Not to big where it wont fit in my bag and not to small where I can't see the screen.

    Its sleek design easily fits in a small brief case. I also purchased separately a fits-all protective folder when manipulated enhances viewing for 1 or 2 more people. Screen quality is crisp and clean. What MUST BE purchased separately is the boxy plug for the end of the cable.

    I have always loved Samsung products. I had an old tablet which wasn't serving my usage needs and upgraded to this new tablet. This is much faster than my old one. I am very happy with it. The only thing I don't like is the storage for the stylus pen is on the exterior of the tablet attached with a magnet.

    This is the perfect size for a tablet. It also has a great processor. I can do so many wonderful things on it. PDFs, note taking, playing games out in the sun. Enjoying life away from people. It is what it is.

    When I purchased my Samsung Galaxy tab S8 Best Buy did not have it in stock. But he arranged to have it shipped to my house about two days later. I was able to transfer everything off of my old tablet onto my new one with very little effort. The one problem that came up was I could not get Sim card door open using the supplied pin. I took the tablet back to Best Buy and their tax were able to get the door open for me it just needed a little bit more force with a stronger pin. I've had the tablet for well over a month and it is working great very happy with the purchase. Note: the supplied can will get knocked off very easily and I was able to find a case that had an elastic strap that holds the pen in place otherwise you spend a lot of time looking for the pen when it gets knocked off unfortunately Best Buy does not sell that case.

    Galaxy Tabs continue to Improve over prior models

    My previous tablet was the Galaxy Tab S5e, also from Best Buy and I liked it but it was slow at times and it seemed underpowered or short on the amount of ram that it needed to show videos or play simple games. In comparison, the Tab S8 seems much quicker, snappy, and responsive. I also like that Samsung has slightly less bloatware than before. The screen seems very nice, plenty of color and quite clear. I'm not in total agreement about the pen placement for charging and storage as it is very close to the rear cameras and it is easy to accidentally smudge a camera lense when reaching for the pen.

    Overall, the quality is amazing. I mean its basically a phone but in a tablet size. For the price, you would expect it to be more of like a laptop but its good at what it does. Basically just to browse the internet, check emails, and any other apps that you would have on your phone but in a bigger size. I would recommend to someone looking for a solid laptop, but not expecting to use it as a computer replacement.

    The tablet is amazing but it has an lcd display and missing cellular capabilities which would have made this one of if not the best tablets out there, especially at this price point, but right now it is amazing for most use cases like reading, drawing, writing, searching the web, etc..., light weight things, not enough to completely replace a computer, but still doing most things a computer can.

    Upgraded from the Tab S6 to the Tab S8. It's a noticeable difference in the quality of the video / screen and response time. It was a needed upgrade due to the fact the S6 is losing support.

    Great tablet coming from an Apple guy. This tablet has been a dream to use and been loving ever since I got it. Fast and built like a tank, very impressive. Will get years of use from this one. MUST BUY.
