Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 series is expected to launch next week at a Galaxy unpacked event alongside the company's flagship Galaxy S22 series smartphones. The upcoming Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 series is likely to be comprised of three models — Galaxy Tab S8, Galaxy Tab S8+, and Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra. And ahead of the launch of the company's flagship smartphones and tablets expected on February 9, official-looking images along with detailed specifications of Samsung Galaxy Tab S8, Galaxy Tab S8+, and Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra have been leaked online, giving enthusiasts an idea of what to expect from Samsung's upcoming flagship tablet models.

Images of the upcoming Samsung Galaxy Tab S8, Galaxy Tab S8+, and Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra were leaked by tipster Evan Blass, shared by GSMArena.
