I always wanted a tablet for doing my art, writing, reading. This one is absolutely amazing. I can use the stylus to draw and even write. I use this everyday.

This cover perfectly fits my Galaxy Tab S8. I like that it's magnetic (no snapping the tablet into place) and that there's a spot for the stylus on both the inside and outside (so the stylus is able to charge without having to remove the cover). My only complaint is that the stand only works in landscape and not in portrait orientation.

Don’t believe the low rated reviews about this book cover. It does what it’s supposed to do very well. It’s not an Otterbox case designed to protect the tablet from nuclear blasts. It’s an attractive, lightweight, thin cover that is built to complement your thin, lightweight Galaxy Tab 8S. That’s exactly what I wanted for my new 8S. It does provide some reasonable protection, but if you’re primarily looking for an attractive cover that gives you a 2-position stand for your table, desk or lap desk, and at the same time keeps your beautiful new tablet thin and lightweight, this is indeed the product for you. I highly recommend it on that basis.

I like the size and clarity of the graphics on this tablet, but I wish there was a better way to 'secure' the S pen than just the magnet. I have already lost on stylus and have not even had it 3 months. I also like the cover that is purchased separately--it works very well and has good options for how to set up a 'stand'.

This cover is for my Tab S8 and replaces my Tab S3. The magnets on this cover are only 'fine'. A few times a month, they slip off out of place. But, frankly that's not really good enough. I fear that some day they will slip out and the tablet will crack.
I was very skeptical when I got a magnet close on my Tab S3, but it lasted years and never slipped. Seems like Samsung opted for some cheaper magnets this time.

If You Use This Cover - Plan To Drop Your Tablet

This cover is very thin and lightweight, so it fits in purses, backpacks and such for carrying; however, don't plan to just carry your tablet around in it, because your tablet will easily fall out due to the magnet's being to strong in front and too weak in back.
As I've seen mentioned in some other reviews, this cover should really have some sort of tab on it to ensure that the correct side can be easily identified.
There's one really good feature of this cover, and that's the convenient location for the S-Pen. While it doesn't hold the pen on the charging pad, it does secure it well when moving around.

Love the feel and firmness of the materials. When opened, the case edges stick slightly above the thumbprint and volume controls making them hard to operate. S Pen, because of where the holder is located at the hinge, likes to fall out.
