Moving away from the usual pattern of Samsung product launches, we should see the
Galaxy Tab S8
at some point this year – and a survey sent to Samsung users in South Korea gave some clues as to what the 2021 Android tablet might have in store.
As spotted by

, posts on South Korean social network Naver may have revealed some of the specs of three Galaxy Tab S8 models. Although a user survey
is mentioned
, it's still unclear exactly where those specs came from, so treat them as speculative for now.
If we can trust the leaked information, the Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 will be available with an 11-inch, 12.4-inch or giant 14.6-inch screen (LCD for the base model and OLED for the other two) .The Galaxy Tab S7 came with an 11-inch screen and a 12.4-inch screen, but the larger size is new.

There's a sizable battery capacity to go along with that massive display: 12,000mAh according to this latest leak. 12.4 inches, which could well be called Galaxy Tab S8 Plus.

Digging deeper into the expected specs, the two smaller versions of the Tab S8 should come with either 8GB of RAM and either 128GB or 256GB of storage. Your options on the 14.6-inch model would be 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage, or 12GB of RAM and 512GB of storage – high-end specs indeed.
This decision to add a more upmarket model to the range is perhaps motivated by the recent launch of the M1 engine.
iPad Pro
The most expensive 12.9-inch version of the Apple tablet comes with up to 16GB of RAM and a maximum storage capacity of 2TB.
It looks like Wi-Fi, 4G and 5G versions of the Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 will be available, all with 13MP + 5MP rear cameras. an 8MP + 5MP selfie camera to capture wider shots.
We have heard very little about
Tab S8 Leaks
so far, but the device could launch as early as August if Samsung sticks to its usual release schedule. August could be a bumper month for Samsung as we also expect the Galaxy Z Fold 3, the Galaxy Z Flip 3 and the Galaxy S21 FE make an appearance.
