Not even Apple goes that far
Samsung will soon be introducing new high-end tablets with the Galaxy Tab S8, replacing the Galaxy Tab S7. As has now become known, the South Korean company will be based on smartphones at least in one point – to the detriment of customers.
Samsung Galaxy Tab S8: The power supply is deleted
You have to give Samsung one thing: the South Korean company is really doing the job consistently, if you want to believe the source. Accordingly, the Galaxy Tab S8, S8 Plus and S8 Ultra should no power adapter included be (source: LetsGoDigital). While the S Pen is said to still be included in the box, you’ll probably have to buy a power adapter for the tablet or use one you already own. This is even going too far for Apple. There the iPhones no longer have a power supply, but the iPads still get one.
So far, Samsung has always included a power adapter with its tablets. Even the recently introduced one A power adapter is also included with the Galaxy Tab S7 FE, so that you can charge the Android tablet. That will probably change in 2022. At least with the Galaxy Tab S8, that would fit the concept. After all, Samsung has started to omit the power supply from the smartphones, even from the high-end models. So it would only be logical to continue this with other devices.
If you want to enjoy the full potential of the Galaxy Tab S8, you will have to buy a power adapter for better or worse. The Samsung tablet should namely can be charged with up to 45 watts. The tablet would then be completely full again in a short time. At least the pen wasn’t deleted. Then all you need is a keyboard cover and you have a 2-in-1 device. It’s quite possible that it will be available again for free for pre-orders.
The last Samsung tablet with a power supply:
Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra should be really expensive
For the first time, Samsung is also becoming an Ultra model with the Galaxy Tab S8 with a huge 14.6-inch display. This should then cost well over 1,000 euros. So if you want the best of the best, you will have to dig deep into your pockets. It is not known exactly when the performance will take place. It certainly won’t take too long.
