Samsung usually releases its Galaxy Tab S series of flagship tablets alongside the Galaxy Noe series in the second half of every year. But in 2021, the company canceled both these products. However, we have been hearing about the Galaxy Tab S8 series for months. The new lineup of tablets is expected to go official in early 2022. Ahead of that, the vanilla Galaxy Tab S8 leaks in renders along with specifications.
Popular leaker Steve Hemmerstoffer (@OnLeaks) has partnered with Zouton to share the 3D CAD renders of the upcoming Galaxy Tab S8. The tipster has also revealed the key specs of this tablet.
According to the renders, the tablet will have a flat frame like its predecessor. The font will be fully occupied by the screen with minimal bezels all-around to hold the product. The front-facing camera will sit on the right bezel, which is the ideal location.
On the back, the slate will house a vertically-aligned dual-camera array, a magnetic strip to hold/charge the S Pen stylus, and Samsung branding. Whereas, the right side will include a power button with an embedded fingerprint sensor and volume keys. Finally, it will have a USB Type-C port at the bottom with two speaker grilles on either side and another two speaker grilles at the top with a secondary microphone hole at the center.
Talking about specifications, the Galaxy Tab S8 is said to sport an 11-inch IPS LCD panel with a resolution of 1600 x 2560 pixels and a 120Hz refresh rate. It will be powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 SoC paired with 8GB RAM and 128GB storage,
On the software front, the device will run One UI but the actual version is a mystery for now. As for energy, it will be backed by an 8,000mAh battery with support for 45W fast charging.
Last but not least, the slate will measure 253.75 x 165.30 x 6.24mm in dimensions.
