The best Samsung tablet, The best tablet I’ve ever purchased. I have a 12” IPad, but the sound and the color from my Samsung is amazing. I just love the size of it. A mini tv.

This is one of the coolest things I have ever owned. First off, its huge, easy to operate and it so big if you have vision issues, I will say spend the extra and get the huge screen.

Best Buy's used items seem to be a toss-up depending on the location you buy them from, that being said, the Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra I purchased and picked up in-person did not include an S-Pen. I was then offered by a member of staff to buy one separately, which was incredulous. Fortunately I was able to get a refund.
Unrelated issues aside, the tablet is large. I could see using it as a second monitor or an okay tablet to create digital drawings. I say okay because the pixel density isn't that great - objects like app icons and such are blurry when you focus in too close. To be fair, this wasn't advertised as a digital drawing tablet, even though Apple's iPad does fare better in that respect and I think Samsung would do well to catch up. Battery seemed to drain fairly quickly, about one percent drop every three minutes using medium brightness while watching YouTube. Not sure if that was something limited to the device I purchased or if there is a break-in period like with the Galaxy S22 Ultra and some of the more recent Samsung Devices. It'll learn your usage patterns and adapt. Still, I found the pixel density and battery issues to be too cumbersome to overlook. The build quality is great though, and the tablet is overall thin although somewhat heavy.

Amazing, Big Awkward Tablet

This is a beautiful almost to large tablet. Screen is amazing, speakers sound great, using it as a large notepad with the S-Pen, just great. I actually purchased this open box - fair- rating. But found while opened, was in near perfect condition. Paid only $364.99 before tax, so for that price, this is the best value tablet I have ever purchased. It is large and clunky to use sometimes because of the size, but for what I paid, it is still 5 out of 5!

Got this via open box excellent and was blown away! The tablet was literally brand new, factory seals and all (the box was sort of beaten up but not a big deal).
The screen is beautiful, it’s very fast and great for watching movies, studying, note taking, and overall work. Regular price of this tablet was $1100. Was on sale for $700 and with open box snagged it for $550. Incredible deal.

I went for the Ultra vs the smaller models mostly for the better resolution, but this is an all around better choice. Id even encourage buying the generstion behind whatever the latest is because Samsung's prices of the new vs the old...not enough feature differences in the new ones to justify the cost

simple, big enough, yet not as heavy as a laptop. Seems to work similar to Galaxy phone. Love having the "pen" with it.
