While the Samsung's Galaxy Tab S8 has remained the flagship tablet of the company for over a year, it still packs better hardware and software package compared to most Android slabs in the market right now. Hence, if you want to take advantage of a big saving, Amazon has it for 20 percent off, netting you $138 right off the bat.

The variant that is offered with this discount is the Wi-Fi in graphite colorway. It has an on-board storage of 128 GB and includes an S Pen which usually costs $699, but the deal has slashed it down to $562.

Why the Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 is still a flagship Android tablet to beat

The Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 was launched last year, yet it still carries many punches. It is powered by a Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset that remains snappy and reliable for gaming and multitasking. This is paired with a large 8,000 mAh battery that supports fast charging. The tablet itself can last multiple of days on a single charge if with combined usage.

At the front of the slate is a large and bright 11-inch LCD screen at 120 Hz refresh, which is protected by a Gorilla Glass 5. What's great is you don't have to shed extra bucks if you want to pair it with a stylus as Samsung's S Pen comes free with it. And similar to the Galaxy Tab S8+ (review), there are also four loudspeakers around the standard tab that make great sound.

The back houses a dual camera, including a 13 MP wide that records 4K video, while the 6 MP secondary takes ultrawide pictures. Even the front-facing 12 MP snapper has an ultrawide optics, which is useful when you're on a video conference call. Surprisingly, this shoots high-res videos in 4K resolution as well.

I still remember how amazed I was when I first got hold of the Nokia 3210 back when I was a kid, and it was during that time I developed my love for technology, particularly for mobile phones. I started sharing my knowledge through writing in different blogs and forums back in Nokia Nseries era. I even make videos before where I put different phones side-by-side. Today, I'm still an avid enthusiast of smartphones, but my interests have evolved into smart devices and electric vehicles.

    They are overpriced and oversized. Also need to, mention bloatware and crappy Samsung account abuses.

    Now they are good hardware, certainly. But the drive to bigger just isn't better, and they need to respect the consumer more than they do.

    I want a 7 or 8 inch powerhouse clean android tablet with lots of ports and slots. But the OEMs don't see that market.
