    I probably should have spent 200 less and bought the 11-inch version, but I really wanted AMOLED, but I think the TFT version isn't really bad either, and yes, you would have a better battery and I have my old one anyway was 10.5 inches, that was the S4, so the size would have been better too. Would have been the same. And that's no longer a headphone jack and the fact that you now have to buy the charger yourself is bold without end anyway.

    Now Samsung ist really competing with apple in the tablet market. Sure more optimized apps on the ipads. But the performance of the tab s8 and even s7 series is more than enough for general tasks like searching the web , media consumption and note taking. The battery life is much better than the ipads. 4 years of OS updates and 5 years of security updates. Stylus in the box so no additional money for that. High resolution amoled screen. better aspect ratio (more of a taste but yeah for not taking not bad at all and better for watching content) and Samsung Notes is really the best note taking App. Makes sense considering its an App Samsung made themselves and also considering the experience Samsung had over the years with their Notes series. I study CS in Aachen, germany and I did not expect to see so many of these tabs everywhere.

    • @OGUKooper
      @OGUKooper 2 роки тому +1

      I don't think it would affect it. S-Pen has a soft tip which gives a paper and pen feel. As long you aren't buying a matte screen or any paper feel screen protector. It would ruin your S-Pen tip much faster. (I have used S7+ Plus before).
      If you need a screen protector, you could get any normal one. Again, make sure it isn't matte nor any paper feel screen protector.

    Hey I had a question: I saw a video the other day of Samsung installing software to limit the performance of the processor in phones to make the battery last longer and less heat to be generated. You mentioned geekbench which gets whitelisted by Samsung to not be throttled. Does Samsung do the same on the tablets and do they do it differently on the various versions of the Tab S8? I think they ran a geekbench or other benchmark tool, then renamed it to the name of a game and ran the tool again which showed a lower score. I'm curious what will happen if you do a similar thing on the Tab S8's.

    Very interesting video as usual. Do you charge your devices fully to 100%? I watched a technical video (Ralph S Bacon) recently and he was designing a charger but limited the charge to 90%. When I looked at the charging menu on the S8 which I purchased a couple of weeks ago, I noticed there is the option on fast charging to limit to 85%, which it says will give longer battery life. I selected this option, what's your thoughts?

    before the video started im assuming s8 would win although it has a smaller battery, the reason for it is because the screen is small, that's the main reason why it can hold long unlike the two. as a tab s8 ultra user and been using it for almost 2 months what I can say is that it is the best tablet you can buy out there, worth every penny

    I watched this video, didn't leave a comment but went to a shop to try them out, and I end up going for the S8+ for few reasons
    1. Super amoled, especially when u have them next to each other to compare, u really feel they're 2 different levels of products.
    2. It's the closest size to an A4 document, it just make me feel right, for my daily work I quite often need multi tasking, mostly 2 apps at the same time, S8 feels a bit small, ultra is too massive for my need
    After 2 mth of usage, I wasn't bothered by the battery life at all! I use it for work, 8hrs a day, mainly demonstrating to my clients, some drawing, some demo videos, football highlights in lunch, zoom meeting, etc etc
    most of the time set to 40% brightness, rarely need any higher.
    For this kind of usage, I only need to charge it once every 2 days, if it wasn't so busy, I can get up to 2.5 to 3 days
    Overall, I'm really impressed and happy with my choice without any regret
    Good video btw👍🏻

      Funny that you mention the A4 size, because one of the reasons and thinking about buying an S8 Ultra is because of the screen being similar to A4 😅
      If you put in in portrait mode it's basically an A4, in fact the screen area is only 2% difference of an A4 sheet area, while having very similar ratio 16:10 vs 14.1:10

      You can expect 10 hr average for both Ipad pro and s8 ultra for mixed usage (Browsing and watching movies) and brightness set at 150 nits. Airplane mode can help as well to prolong the battery drain a bit. Ipad pro 2018 model can give you little more battery life (may be up to 12 hr)

      I use the S8 Ultra daily for drawing and note taking. It is absolutely brilliant. It feels about the same weight as the iPad Pro I switched from so it isn't cumbersome at all. I am a bigger dude though so it's length isn't really a bother to me like it may be for others. I also wanted more RAM which was another reason I chose the Ultra. The way ClipStudio paint seamlessly allows you to use your phone as the color palate and brush menu and the tablet be just the canvas is really nice.
