Chipset

Each tablet in the lineup is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset, manufactured using a 4 nm process technology. Graphics performance is handled by the integrated Adreno 730 GPU.

Storage

The Galaxy Tab S8 and Tab S8+ come with storage capacities of either 128 GB or 256 GB. The Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra offers additional options at 128 GB, 256 GB, and 512 GB, although availability may vary by region. Storage can be expanded up to an additional 1 TB via a microSD card. Base memory starts at 8 GB of RAM, with an option to upgrade to 16 GB.

Camera

For front-facing cameras, the Tab S8 and Tab S8+ include a 12 MP sensor paired with an Template:F/ lens. On the back, these models feature a dual-camera setup: a 13 MP wide-angle camera with an Template:F/ aperture and a secondary 6 MP ultra-wide camera sporting an Template:F/ lens.

The Tab S8 Ultra is equipped with two front cameras: a 12 MP wide-angle lens at Template:F/ and another 12 MP ultra-wide lens at Template:F/. Its rear cameras consist of a 13 MP wide-angle sensor (Template:F/) alongside a 6 MP ultra-wide sensor (Template:F/).

Display

The Tab S8 features an 11-inch TFT LCD panel with a resolution of 2560 x 1600 pixels and a screen aspect ratio of 16:10. Its refresh rate is variable, ranging from 48 Hz up to 120 Hz.

The Tab S8+ boasts a larger 12.4-inch Super AMOLED display with a resolution of 2800 x 1752 pixels and the same 16:10 screen ratio, also supporting adaptive refresh rates between 48 Hz and 120 Hz.

Measuring 14.6 inches, the Tab S8 Ultra incorporates a Super AMOLED screen with a resolution of 2960 x 1848 pixels and maintains the consistent aspect ratio of 16:10. This model’s refresh rate can similarly be adjusted from 48 Hz to 120 Hz.

Software

The device operates on Android 14 paired with One UI 6.1.

Regions

Beginning with the Galaxy Tab S8 lineup, Samsung has unified CSC codes. This consolidation aims to accelerate the delivery of firmware updates across more territories. With fewer Country Specific Codes (CSCs), official Samsung software updates can be distributed to local markets more swiftly.

Certain nations listed may appear individually during the device's initial setup.

OXM

This CSC category covers global markets not otherwise specified. The CSC codes under this group are compatible with all device variants unless otherwise indicated.

Regions or carriers denoted by an asterisk (*) do not support the Call and Text on Other Devices functionality.

South Korea

Wi-Fi-only models sold in South Korea do not include carrier-specific CSC codes but utilize the OXM Multi-CSC for broader language and regional compatibility, unlike cellular models that employ the OKR Multi-CSC.

North America

Wi-Fi-only versions available in this region lack carrier-specific CSC codes but rely on the OXM Multi-CSC for extended language and region support. Cellular models use OYM/OYN and OYA/OYV Multi-CSCs for the US and Canada, respectively.

Latin America

The Latin America region now uses ZBR as a consolidated CSC code.

Europe

CIS

Middle East & North Africa

XSG, initially designated solely for the UAE, now encompasses the entire Middle East.

India

Asia Pacific

Previously confined to Singapore, the region code XSP now covers the broader Asia Pacific area, including Southeast Asia and Oceania. Although Lao, Burmese, and Khmer languages remain unique to this market, they are incorporated in the firmware.

For Wi-Fi only models, region locking has been extended to include Australia and New Zealand within the Asia Pacific zone.

China

Notes

  • Similar to earlier tablet models, in most markets, enabling the Call and Text on Other Devices function requires a mobile phone from a carrier within the same region as where the tablet was originally purchased. Furthermore, calls must accumulate to at least five minutes before devices from other regions can be utilized.
