I am waiting for the next round of sales. I think it's a close call between these two but between the iPad Pro 11 and the Tab S8, Samsung might be the best bang for your buck considering it comes with the pen. The iPad Air should have at least gotten better storage or a 120 Hz refresh rate. This is Apple's way of forcing customers to get the Pro.
I usually enjoy FishBee videos and I was looking for this comparison, but this was so hard to watch and follow. At 0:30 you say you are going to get 8GB 128/256GB and 64/256 GB for the iPad. It was not made clear that the 8GB 128/256 was for the S8. When you are talking about the battery life (starting at 2:07), you say that you got 5 hours and 15 minutes on the iPad and 7 hours on the S8...but if you want the tablet with better battery life, you are going to want to grab the iPad. WHY Beginning at 5:00, you explain that neither tablet had any issues for gaming but if you want the better tablet, but if you want the tablet that is better at gaming, then you are going to want the iPad. No reason(s) given for why the iPad is better. You end the video with sample pictures from the cameras on both tablets (7:22) None of the pictures are labeled to indicate which pictures are from which device.
Picked up a tab s8 nearly brand new only 4months use for £450 with samsung case . It is a fantastic tablet but i wish pubg was better optimised .It does play well but needs a few tweaks and 90fps ...perfect .
@@gabriellaselano3658 it's big enough for me coz i have small hands to hold it and the bezels are smaller which makes the screen bigger for me, but others would find 11" small.
Apple will also have much longer support and apps will be way more polished as developers always prioritize the most popular platforms which is iPad for tablets. I’d personally call it a draw between the two. If you have an android phone get the Samsung and if you have an iPhone get the iPad for the ecosystem
As a windows and android fan boy, I really appreciate how fluid and polished apple products are. I'll never own another windows laptop. I would imagine their tablets are on par with the rest of their electronic devices. Yes you are limited but you're paying for a premium experience. I don't own either but I'm trying to make a decision.
@@golfpro908What premium experience lmao? High end windows computer vs mac, and the mac gives you a premium experience? Ah isn't it lovely when you buy into marketing terms instead of actual tangible things. Paying half a kidney for 64 gigs is truly a premium experience, for your average fool.
@@bereal8253it actually does give you a premium experience, I own an M2 Macbook Pro and a Razer Blade 16, and in all honesty, i found the macbook to be better in video editing, coding, and graphics design, which are all the necessities i need for my work, now yes, high end windows laptops can prob do the same as i tested with my razer blade 16, but the lack of optimization in the apps i mainly use is a killer for me, and i know the macbooks are expensive, but so are high end window laptops, build quality wise, macbook has a higher quality built material which further supports the premium experience, so before you go trashing on apple, go think about the people and their use cases for these devices
@@PHILOSOPHY260 it’s awesome amazing sound and screen, the speed is great with the support of the 120hz a complete change from my old a7 when it comes to battery charging and holding battery
I went with Tab s8 Plus... because I can't stand the huge black bars on ipad when watching you tube and movies. On the Galaxy I can zoom to fill and it goes to the whole edge of the tablet so much bigger display.
If anyone could advice, i want to purchase one from these two, i am getting both (brand new) for roughly the same amount. Things i own(so that it could help in compatibility factor) Phone- Oneplus 9 Laptop- Asus OLED i7-12700h Earphone - Samsung galaxy buds pro Smartwatch- Samsung galaxy watch active 2 Orr should I get the galaxy tab s9
Definitely Go for S8 , its more VMF and that’s coming from someone who owns iphone and an apple watch ( For iPad air you’ll have to pay extra for the pencil as well , i you ever decide to make notes)
What is the best writing experience between Tab s8 and ipad air 2022? I take a lot of notes and also edit 4k videos with my gopro, what do you recommend? Thanks
What did u go for? Can u please share ur experience? I also am searching for a tab primarily for making notes. So what should I go for? Ipad air 5 or samsung S8+? Please reply asap. Thank you.
Nice review I was confused between these two tablet but ended up going with the tab S8 as I got a really good deal for it and bought it for around 500 USD. PS: I use the same Bible app
I noticed when people compare apple to other brands the 120hz ref rate is not imp when u compare the iphone 13 to 13 pro…. Wowww 120hz display and so on…
Hey, I'm an android user and I never used apple product, but now I want a good note taking tablet, also want some good storage and also for doing multi tasking, what would you recommend me, please reply
The Tab S7/S8/S9 is easily the best tablet ever for me! And the best value for price. Owned the Tab S7 and now the Tab S8. My favorite electronic device of all time! They are like a mini PC, which is what love about them, the freedom to do so much more! While my iPads are so restricted and controlled by Apple. I have to do things the Apple way with iPadOS. With the Tab S8 I do things MY way without any BS restriction. ✅️Tab S8: 120hz 🚫Air 5: 60hz ✅️Tab S8: 128GB base storage 🚫Air 5: 64GB base storage ✅️Tab S8: SD card support for extra 1TB storage 🚫Air 5: No SD card support ✅️Tab S8: S-Pen included 🚫Air 5: No Apple pencil included ✅️Tab S8: 4 speakers 🚫Air 5: 2 speakers ✅️Tab S8: Multitasking king 🚫Air 5: Below average multitasking ✅️Tab S8: Way more freedom & customization 🚫Air 5: Very restricted and basic costumization ✅️Tab S8: Fingerprint & face unlocking 🚫Air 5: No face unlocking ✅️Tab S8: Fast charging support 🚫Air 5: No support ✅️Tab S8: LED flash camera 🚫Air 5: No LED flash ✅️Tab S9: IP water resistant 🚫Air 5: Not water resistant ✅️Tab S9: AMOLED display 🚫Air 5: No OLED display
@@andresvalenzuela160 because the S9 is basically the S8. Just adding the new things that the S9 added. But S9 and S8 are literally the same tabs. I owned the Tab S7 and Tab S8. Literally 97% the same thing.
I own iPad air 3 2019. Colors are washed, text is blurry, mouse is slow, all soft keyboards are imprecise, sound is mono, apps are basic, settings are basic, pencil connection unstable, occasional drawing freeze, some apps are missing. But, it's very fast and fluent.
@gee7092 Have you ever used any Samsung tab? Tab S8 has 5 years of software update. So I guess it's not bad either. Amd iPad don't offer any good feature that stands out from the competition.
@Karthiks G Yup. Enjoy your 64gb overpriced tablet. Most smart folks would opt for the iPad pro than this junk. But you being a peasant, you can definitely buy the Air 5 and think you own a diamond 🤣
@@user666xx You already failed with your Whataboutism argument...and you are also a peasant. The topic on hand was the Air 5 vs the S8. Try to keep up on your a8.
@Karthiks G for someone that thinks Air 5 is a better buy than S8, you aren't that bright. No need to lie about owning one and having a bit of buyer's remorse when you finally figured out the iPad pro was a better deal. You just saw the Apple logo and thought your 5 months of wages finally paid off. Maybe if your parents weren't such gold diggers, you'd learn to think things through weighing the prices vs worth.
It's not that simple. Not everyone is stuck in the apple ecosystem. The galaxy tab is better in every category except the processor than the iPad air. Also app availability isn't an issue on the galaxy tab. Make the right choice.
@@souravsingha1363it's literally retarded to think the iPad with 64 gigs isn't gonna get slower. You don't have any storage to work with, as you fill it up it WILL get slower like every other device on this planet. God. The S8 is a flagship device, it's not gonna slow down to a turtle after a few months or even years. Every single device on the face of this earth deteriorates with use, whether it's a high-end pc, a tablet or a phone. The rate can vary but it's dumb to think the device you have will perform exactly the same through the passage of time, it won't, the battery won't, the processor won't, the fans won't. No, not even your damn iPads. Wake the fuck up.
@@Seeeaaan i agree but the storage isn't enough. I think that if apple added a 128gb option it would fit fine.i am a Samsung fan but I respect apple ipad lineup. BTW the sd8 gen 1 is also good for intensive tasks
I have the Samsung tab s8 and in my opinion it's way better than the iPad pro it has far more capabilities and comes with spen and micro sd card which are both a big deal to me . Also the speakers are incredible.
