WHY PAY MORE?! Tab S8 vs Tab S8+ vs Tab S8 ULTRA

  • How do you choose between the Samsung Galaxy Tab S8, S8+ and the Tab S8 Ultra? You would think that having 3 different tablet sizes would make choosing the right one easy, but it might actually make it harder.
    If we start out only looking at the display size, the Tab S8 is 11”, the Tab S8+ is 12.4” and the Tab S8 Ultra is a massive 14.6” (maybe show overhead shot with text over each one). I wouldn’t even categorize these as small, medium and large - I would say medium, large and extra large.

      Despite how great it would be to have the larger sized variants of this tablet with the AMOLED displays, I bought my husband the regular Tab S8 for Christmas. When he travels he needs something more portable.
      I originally got him the Tab S6 Lite, but the specs and speed seemed to be very lacking. So decided to leapfrog over the new Tab S9 FE and go for the S8, even though it's almost 2 years old at this point. I figured he might as well have something more upscale with a better processor to enjoy for a few years.

    Size definitely makes a difference. I have an S7+ and an S8 Ultra. With the S7+ (physically identical to the S8+), I feel I can mostly use it as a tablet or leave it in a case if I want to just watch stuff. With the S8 Ultra, it’s too big to use as a handheld tablet. It’s really designed to stay in its case at all times. It’s big enough that the S8 Ultra will slip out of my hands quite easily. I’ve dropped it enough times on the table (fortunately it never dropped more than a few inches), but I’ve never had that issue with the S7+. I love the Ultra’s screen size better, but I do sometimes wish it were easier to hold.

    It's an important comparison because with the new update policy most are likely to hang on to these for long time much like I will. Buyers remorse only lasts for 28 days here in the UK. I think the + is the sweet spot-I think this matches the ipad Pro better. I'm happy with mine except for no spell check with the cover keyboard. My Samsung eco system (watch, tablet, fold, pay, tags) is starting to work but it's hard to set UP and not so intuitive. Thanks for your non biased reviews.

    One unanswered question for me is how the displays perform outdoors in daylight. I'm selling the Microsoft Surface Go 2 that I bought for portable ham radio operations. Even on an overcast afternoon here in the SF Bay area, with screen at full brightness, the display washes out. A bigger screen than the 10.1" Surface would be a plus, too.

    Watching this from my Tab S8. Thank you a lot for these comparison videos. They helped me a lot with choosing this over an iPad Air 5, and I'm very happy with my choice. My previous tablet was iPad Mini 4, so the size of Tab S8 is just right for me. I prefer smaller, compact size tablets as I already have a 15" laptop and I use tablets mostly to read books and webtoons, draw/colour, game, and watch Netflix and YT. The stylus is a novelty for me, so I'm very happy it's included - I've become a huge Spen fan:)

      How is the screen of the Tab S8? I usually watch content in a pretty dark room (dark like when you go to the cinema) and even if the screen of my previous ipad pro 11 2020 was really good, I was really bothered by the graysh bars that you showed up while watching stuffs. The 16:10 should help because the black bars will be much smaller, but are they really noticable or not?

    I recently got a tabs7+ based on your video. In person the ultra is just huge!! its basically a laptop display. Good for if you need to be showing others things on your tablet but for working on the go and content consumption the s7+ is already too big to be handheld comfortably. i had to put a case on mine just to give it enough heft and protection that I felt ok using it without breaking it.
    Great job presenting and delivering relevant info in a clear, concise manner.

    Got the Ultra yesterday and using it now. The display is beautiful. The viewing experience is unmatched compared to other tablets. The best viewing experience among all tablets. Beautiful design as well. Yes, it's big, but when you use it, you'll appreciate the size, especially when you open 2 or 3 apps at the same time. No app is cramped, making multitasking experience great as well. It's not for someone who's actively on the go every day.

    If the main difference is screen size, I'd actually prefer the Plus even though I'd like to use it like a portable second display. My thinking is that the smaller one is even more portable while the Ultra seems almost like lugging a second laptop around. But that AMOLED and latency is important to me since the main reason I'd be getting it is as a stylus display for my laptop. I have the S22 Ultra and really love the stylus, and can see the benefit of using it for Photoshop and Illustrator amongst other things.

    5:05 A micro-usd card slot is something I've never heard of before 😂 Jokes aside, great comparison between these. I just ordered the s8+. I bought the 256gb model, keyboard case included as well as the s-pen. Just had to purchase a screen protector, charger and a 512gb memory card. The total ended up at 1000 euros. If I would have gone with similar storage with the ipad pro 12.9" 512gb, apple pencil 2 and keyboard, that would have ended up at over 2000 euros. Hard to justify that price tag. I use an iPhone 13 Pro Max, and the Macbook Pro 16" M1 base model as my other main devices. Sure it would have been nice to match up everything in the same ecosystem, but getting some variation sure is nice too!

      Its called Dex and is built-into the tablet (and Samsung phones). Look at videos of that if you're interested - you just pug a USB-C to HDMI cable into the monitor and you will have a computer-like interface with desktop and everything. You literally don't need a laptop anymore. Dex can also do it wirelessly to where you dont even need a cable.
      Apple has nothing even remotely comparable and Samsung has been doing this for many years now. If Apple users had access to this technology they would go ballistic thinking it was the best thing that has ever happened to Apple lol
      That's the problem with Apple - they wont develop this because it will cut into their hugely profitable Mac sales. Android doesn't sell laptops, so they don't care. Apple will make you buy a $1500 iphone and $2000 Macbook just to do what a used $300 Samsung Galaxy from 2017 can do. The latest versions (such as these tablets) do this extremely well. Take a look at videos and you will see how Dex acts just like a desktop - you can even connect a keyboard and mouse if you'd like.

So that would verify going for the S8. However I am worried I will be disappointed with the smaller size when using it for productivity. Can you shed any light on that? I am 100% sure I don't want the Ultra as I am sure I will never use that one as a tablet.
