The Galaxy Tab S8 Series features a new processor, an improved S Pen, large displays that act as a great canvas, and a unibody build made with Armor Aluminum. All of these aspects combined make the new tablets pretty great options to consider if you've been on the lookout for an upgrade from older devices like a Tab S5 or Tab S6.
The entire series is currently available for pre-order, although we don't have any confirmation on when deliveries and in-store availability will begin. But to give you an idea of how much you may have to shell out, the standard model, Galaxy Tab S8, starts at $699.99, the Tab S8 Plus goes for $899.99, while the Ultra will sell for $1,099.99.
And like always, Samsung does have a few pre-order benefits up its sleeve, you can find them in our deals post, which will be up soon. But to give you an idea of what is to come, early buyers of Tab S8 or Tab S8 Plus will be able to receive a Slim Book Cover Keyboard and those getting Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra will receive a Backlit Book Cover Keyboard.
