![]() Can it keep up with literally any game, app or task that you will throw at it? A resounding yes. Can it keep up with the iPad Air 5? Absolutely not. The Galaxy Tab S8 is no slouch it features the new Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chip with 8GB of RAM. ![]() The iPad Air 5 is blisteringly fast, offering killer performance that far exceeds a tablet's demands, especially a sub-$600 slate. This includes an 8-core CPU and 8-Core GPU along with Apple’s Neural Engine technology. The iPad Air 5 introduces Apple’s M1-chip, basically the same chip found in the MacBook Air and MacBook Pro 13-inch. If you’ve been paying any attention to phones or tablets in the last few years, you’ll know that Samsung doesn’t have a prayer here, but what the heck, let’s let them duke it out and see how it goes. If you are looking to use the iPad Air 5 as a laptop replacement that will only rarely be used as a true tablet, then the Magic Keyboard is undeniably the better keyboard, but at that point, you should consider a MacBook Air (M1, 2020). You get a very similar stylus experience for free and adding the Book Cover Keyboard puts you just $10 over the cost of adding the stylus alone to the iPad Air 5. The Galaxy Tab S8 is the winner here again, in part, due to the value proposition. Around the edges of the tablet, you have a power button, volume up and down, and a USB-C port. The bezels are still a touch larger than is necessary, but it does prevent you from accidentally touching the screen. While I like the look of it on the iPhone 13, I think it fits the tablet even better as the larger size makes the hard-edged design more pleasant to hold. This isn’t a criticism in either case as both tablets offer a stylish aluminum finish they’re also thin, light and comfortable to use.įor the iPad Air 5, the now-familiar squared-off look that permeates Apple’s modern lineup is present. The iPad Air 5 and Galaxy Tab S8 have one thing in common, both are virtually unchanged from the design of their predecessors. At that point, the base Galaxy Tab S8 with 128GB of storage, and the included S Pen, for $699 wins. If you can stick to the base model iPad Air 5, it is the better value, but most users are going to want that storage upgrade as 64GB can vanish in a flash. Granted, this is only relevant if you want to use a stylus with your tablet, but it’s worth noting. Getting the comparable Apple Pencil for your iPad Air 5 would set you back another $129.
