What's up everyone?! I hope this comparison of the Tab S8 and the iPad Air 4 was helpful. Did I cover what you wanted to know? What else did you want to see or learn about?

[savagegreens]

Great comparison! As an Autistic person sensitive to layered sound, I appreciate that your videos are sensory friendly and not overwhelming to the senses. Thanks for creating quality content for the online community. 🤗

I'm always surprised that reviewers fail to mention that the s pen does not need to be charged for writing!
I use my tab s7 plus for note taking everyday, and I've long stopped bother with charging the pen.

I love my Tab S7, I've had it for a year by now, and it's awesome. While iPads are awesome, if I had the choice between getting the Air 4 and the S8, I'd go with the S8. Just offers more features I'd use and notice daily for the price.

I tried many note taking apps since 2013. After alot of research, for me Samsung Note is the Best note & pdf note taking apps. I used tab S7 since launch and just sold it yesterday. Waiting for my Tab S8 to arrived 😆😆

Honestly I really enjoy the templates you do for your videos. I don’t always like the tips you give (the video on the ipad pro 12.9 m1 is it worth it 6 months later where you said its good for xbox game pass which i find it’s not because of input lag) but overall your videos really give me a concise and clear idea of what I’m looking for and often times what i’m not looking for and when I see a a new video I’m happy because I know I’ll be entertained and watch a quality video. So yeah, I know obviously it’s your job but thanks for contributing and making youtube a nice place for tech

I've had an iPad air 2 for the past 7 years and a shift to hybrid teaching has nudged me to consider an upgrade. Your video has helped me made my decision to go for the tab s8 as i needed the multitasking capability and the S Pen. Great comparison, thanks.

[sarpgunaydin]

I think you should compare the S8 with Air5 when it comes out in March event (probably)

[sancungbalaxy]

DeX mode is huge advantage you missed and you forgot to mention that S8 supports SD cards and you can add up to 1TB storage, which cost 160 euros in Bulgaria, smaller cards are cheaper. I pre-ordered the 128gb version on s8+ and I plan to add 512gb sd card for 80 euros. I don't know what is the situation with torrents in other countries, but I can download as much as I want on Android, while it is impossible on ios, which is a deal breaker in countries where torrents are not illegal.

This was a must need video for me, that you 👍👍

[fuadmehrvarz]

as always great comparation, I think os is main thing to decide which one is better for people, iphone and Mac users should go for ipad, but Android users don't enjoy the apple ecosystem, multitasking is much better on Samsung tablets, especially with Samsung Dex, and Samsung notes is Amazing

This is the video I've been waiting for. It seems that most reviewers went straight for the S8 Ultra. For me, that's too much tablet so I agonized over whether to pre-order the Tab S8 or S8+. After much consideration, I ordered the S8 on blind hope that it would be great since there were really no reviews out for it yet. I really wanted the S8+ specs for this tablet, at least for the LCD, but I feel that this LCD will be sufficient enough for regular use and easier to travel with.

Thanks for another really great comparison review. I appreciate your unbiased approach.

[peppermintpetty]

I just appreciate the fact the accuracy of nothing else …but I have come to appreciate tech gear talk bc of the consistency and lack of bias which I appreciate in a tech reviewer. I watched another review by let’s call them “Faxtech” 10mins ago and the tab s8 plus was compared to the 12.9 inch when it was obvious that it’s intent is to be the rival of the 11 inch and the 14.6 inch ultra is direct competition for the 12.9. I know it’s nit picky but it was just an awkward review. And I appreciate this review for taking a more reasonable and fair approach.

[pointingouttheobvious]

A great, easy to listen to review, informative and hit all the points I was interested in. Subscribed. I am keen to see a comparison between Tab S8 and the new M1 iPad Air next...

[frogKarma]

What is that green thing you used to check for speakers?

[ericyazaki]

Finally someone did a video on the tab s8! Great video btw!

[shariffkenzo]

May I kindly request to see how different apps look on the tab s8(android) and iPad (iPadOS) in both landscape and portrait mode. I would like to know how optimised or unoptimised both are.

[koushikparameswaran]

Please make a review on the tab s7 series (including all 3) and the tab s8 series to help us understand if it's worth the upgrade. Love ur videos❤️

[kungfupanda]

[kenfordan]

Oh finally been waiting for this review 👌
