The budget tablet brings a 10.5-inch FHD+ LCD, a 2GHz octa-core SoC beneath it mated to a maximum of 4GB of RAM and 128GB of storage, and a massive 7,040mAh battery. To top it up, there’s a 15W charging system.
Also included is a quad-speaker setup, making the Galaxy Tab A8 ideal for binge-watchers on a budget. There’s a 3.5mm headphone jack for cord lovers and an 8MP/5MP rear/front camera combo for emergency camera work. The Tab A8 also comes with Android 11-based One UI 3.1, but you can likely expect an upgrade to Android 12 later in the year.
