The Snapdragon 898 chipsets will power the forthcoming Galaxy Tab S8 trio
ByFaisal Chughtai | Published date:
A huge leak of Galaxy Tab S8 specifications, including three models – vanilla, S8+, and S8 Ultra – occurred a few months ago. According to the leak, the vanilla model will allow 45W charging. Ice Universe, a dependable tipper, predicts that all three models will allow 45W charging.

They will be capable of handling 10V at 4.5A, which is the same as the Galaxy Tab S7 variants. Despite having bigger batteries than phones, rapid charging at 40 or more Watts is uncommon on tablets.
In that regard, the Galaxy Tab S8+ is expected to feature a 10,090 mAh battery, the S8 Ultra, an 11,500 mAh battery, and the vanilla model, an 8,000 mAh battery.
All three slates will be powered by the forthcoming Qualcomm Snapdragon 898. Perhaps this is why the debut has been delayed - the first two Tab S7 variants were released almost a year ago. But Snapdragon 898 isn't scheduled to arrive until December/January.
Another thing to note is that the leakster says explicitly that the tablets will not use Samsung’s own Exynos 2200. The one with the AMD RDNA GPU is supposed to be more powerful than the new Adreno.
More graphics power would have been beneficial on the larger screen. And of course, the Exynos is not ready for launch either.
The Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 generation is anticipated to be released concurrently with the Galaxy S22 flagships. They will all come pre-installed with the new One UI 4.0.
