In addition to the Galaxy S22, Samsung took the opportunity to present its new large format tablets: the Galaxy Tab S8. Three very high-end tablets, the smallest of which is 11 inches. They have been available for purchase for a few days and benefit from generous introductory offers for a few more days.
The new Galaxy S22s are not the only high-end devices that Samsung presented a few days ago. The Korean manufacturer has also benefited to unveil its new Galaxy Tab S8 tablets. Thin and elegant, they stand out for their unusual size, closer to a computer screen than the compact format of traditional tablets. Marketed from 769 euro, they are currently benefiting from a great pre-order offer on Samsung’s website.
An elegant design and a beautiful screen to make the most of all your content
The biggest asset (and the one that stands out the most, let’s be honest), is the large screen of these new Galaxy Tab S8s. Three formats are available:
- The Galaxy Tab S8 with its screen 11 inches (available from 769 euros)
- The Galaxy Tab S8+ with its screen 12.4 inches (available from 999 euros)
- The Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra with its screen 14.6 inches (available from 1219 euros)
If the Galaxy Tab S8 has a classic LTPS screen, its two big sisters can boast of benefiting from a super AMOLED panel, like the best smartphones from the manufacturer. Finally, all three benefit from a refresh rate of 120 Hz.

Beyond visual comfort, the three Galaxy Tab S8 benefit from a thin and elegant design. With a maximum thickness of 6.3 mm for the Tab S8, they are among the thinnest products on the market. The edges are also very discreet, and the back of each Galaxy Tab S8 is equipped with a matte aluminum coating, guaranteeing great resistance to shocks in addition to offering a premium appearance.
A hybrid tablet designed for leisure, but also for work
Aesthetically impeccable, the new generation of Galaxy Tab is both a tool for work and entertainment. The Galaxy Tab S8 and S8+ first benefit from a 12-megapixel wide-angle front camera, a real asset for video calls, professional or not.
The Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra also benefits from a second front camera of the same definition to offer some additional functions. It thus becomes possible to automatically zoom in on the person speaking during a video call, and to widen the angle of the camera if new people enter the field.
