My nearly 8 year old iPad Air 2 is becoming a bit long in the tooth, and it’s time to upgrade. Truthfully, I don’t use my tablet much, and when I do it’s normally for consuming content. I do have an iPhone 13 Pro and I am DEEP into the Apple ecosystem (also Watch, AirPods, iMac), but I’ve never really cared that my tablet be part of that. I’m almost annoyed when I get a text on my tablet because, well, my phone is always near me so I’ll just use that. The photo sharing between devices is nice but for a tablet I don’t really care. I will never take pictures with a tablet.
I really like the specs of the Tab S8. Better speakers, better screen (I prefer the aspect ratio on the S8 also), 120hz display, included pencil which I may not use but hey it’s included. The snapdragon doesn’t have the power of the M1, but for my use it will never make a difference. Mostly YouTube, F1TV and reading. I haven’t used an Android device in some time, but I am very techy by nature and bouncing back and forth between OS’s won’t be a problem.
Anyone been in a similar spot? Like I said, integration with the rest of my smart devices is not a priority in a tablet for me.
