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.

    Use it everyday for streaming and work. Battery holds for the day. Wish the 2nd screen option was smoother, but overall pretty good.

    Now this was a great purchase. I got an open boxed edition, with a trade in and 70 in bestbuy giftcard points. Paid $250 out of pocket. I've had the s7, s8 ultra(too big), ipad pro 11 M1, and the 12.9in m1. All great but all different, this was the best bang for the buck.

    No way to charge the tablet included. Included a data cable but both ends had "C" usb but no block to plug in to outlet. MOST, and every other device I have purchased has a cable with a regular usb on one end and the block included used the regular usb. I realize to save paper an instruction manual is not included but a simple pamphlet that tells you basic operation should be included for those of us who not "tech" savvy.

    Quality is good but I can’t find a good case and the pen keeps falling off. Also I think the power and volume buttons are not in the best place.

    My nephew from Colombia was planning on buying a tablet and Nintendo. Unfortunately, there was a problem with his credit card. The guy who helped us was very helpful and sweet. Even after the store was closed, he still managed to help us . We really appreciate all the help!!

    Couldn't be happier. Bought it for my Wife who had an Apple Air. Finds it to be more user friendly . Its the perfect size and weight for her. Not much of a learning curve needed. Lots on new stuff to try and it works in the real world.

    I mainly use my tablet for streaming services and this tablets display and resolution is a big leap from my old S6 lite. The 128GB memory is small but good enough for my needs. Glad Samsung has kept the micro SD expandable port on the Galaxy tablets.

    I'm still learning how to operate it and learning how to leave one screen to get to the home screen. Other than that it seem to be a good product. I like the volume. The battery life is not as long as promised.

    Finally upgraded from my Samsung tab2. I'm so in love with my new tablet. It turned out to be so much more useful than I expected. I use it all day for note taking at work then play games and draw on it for the rest of the day.

    I got this for myself so I could practice drawing. It's been really great for that as well as light web usage and casual gaming. Highly recommend getting a case that holds the s-pen.
