Design and build

Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 10.5 (2021) retains an average design of a tablet that does not exceed this price category. The device is mostly metal with the exception of a section on the right side which is made of plastic. This is to enable the passing of college WiFi, phone signals, and other radio frequencies. Generally, GalaxytabA8 10.5 (2021) is solid and it is built to last. The Tabs are additionally available in shades of Gray, Silver, Pink Gold and Gold, though there are some defining differences. On the front, it presents a 10.5 inches 16: 10 display.

Large display

This display space is sufficient enough to accommodate various forms of documents such as PDF files or slideshows. It is not surprising that Samsung provides it with pre-installed Microsoft office. Another useful application in this regard is Samsung Notes which allows taking note on the annotations One would however expect Samsung to have used a better IPS display rather than the TFT panel. It is not that it is utterly awful, only that with increasing rivalry, Samsung ought to be improving more in this area.

Nonetheless, still, the screen compliments the colors and vibrancy to this extent. For instance, watching videos on YouTube is very entertaining. Even HD content streaming on Netflix is available. In addition, enriching the multimedia experience further is the quad stereo speakers set available here with dolby anims technologies.

Cameras

Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 10.5 (2021) is obviously not going to value its cameras. Its 8 MP, AF rear camera can handle things like scanning documents and notes. Its 5 MP front-facing camera will get you through your online classes, Zoom calls, and things like that. Video recording is capped at 1080p@30fps which is decent quality for this tablet all factors considered. You may also want to check out theย Samsung Galaxy Tab A7ย which this one succeeds.

Samsung Dex?

While this tablet does not support Samsung Dex,ย Samsung Flowย is a close substitute. With it you can connect the tablet to your PC over both wireless and via mediums, allowing you to share messages, clipboards, and files between the two. Similarly, you can even cast your tablet to the PC to enjoy Android apps on a bigger screen.

Also, although Samsung has not explicitly mentioned it, expect at least two Android major updates on this tablet. Also under this department is Samsungโ€™s software experience where this tablet shines. Software superiority is quite evident, even when doing simple tasks such as browsing through the settings and web.

Performance

Let’s now discuss the performance attributes of the Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 10.5 (2021). While reliable sources tend to list Unisoc Tiger T618 (12 nm), Samsung has notably failed to mention the chipset used in this tablet. In graphics benchmarks, however, the Unisoc Tiger T618 (12 nm) will for sure bulls over the rest. And it has impact on the things related to games as well. When we talk about average daily use, the 3 GB RAM base variant of Galaxy Tab A8 10.5 (2021) may prove to be a little sluggish. Multitasking is not that great as well. Out of the available 32GB, an approximated 10GB is already taken up by the system. Therefore, we highly recommend considering the 4GB RAM, 64GB storage option.

Battery life

For the battery, the Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 10.5 (2021) can provide approximately 7 hours of screen-on time e on a single charge. Hence it is ideal for purposes such as attending online classes, streaming or multimedia and probably gaming every once in a while. With a relatively less demanding… workload, i.e. simple browsing and social media, this will easily last you for two days.

As for this tablet, it is a bit of a problem to charge it and although it may accept up to 15W of power, a 7.75W charger is the one supplied in the box by Samsung. So purchase aย Samsung 15W chargerย to cut down the duration. Otherwise, provided with a charger, its Li-Po 7040 mAh, in-built takes a little over three hours to charge up fully from flat.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 is a well-built yet compact device that can be used perfectly for entertainment without hindrances. The tablet is able to cater for all your needs whether it is watching videos or reading or even doing some work. There is more to entertainment and work than the Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 on the other hand.
