Currently, Samsung’s last-year tablet is available for 14% less at Amazon, which lands it at just under $600 – precisely the price we saw for the device at Best Buy last week. It’s not the first time we’ve seen it with such an appealing discount, but the present deal is worthwhile nonetheless. After all, you get quite a bit of value for your investment.
Unlike its biggest competitor, the Samsung tablet also arrives with the S Pen. That saves you additional expenses and is undoubtedly appreciated. Moreover, you get the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 on deck, which may not be the latest Qualcomm chipset, but it’s still quite capable and shouldn’t let you down.
The Galaxy Tab S8 also has a large 8,000mAh battery on deck. That should be enough to get you through a busy day without connecting it to the plug. If there’s any downside, it’s that the battery doesn’t support wireless charging, but we wouldn’t say that’s something the average user can’t live without.
Overall, if you’re looking for a cheaper alternative to the hugely capable and equally expensive Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra, we suggest you go for the vanilla variant. Now that it’s 14% cheaper on Amazon, it makes for a worthwhile investment.
