Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra 14.6" (2022) 128GB SM-X900 WiFi - Graphite (Renewed)

Love these tablets! Renewed and they look like new! Excellent screen and resolution. Had an issue with one of the S Pens but the seller promptly responded and resolved the issue.

This review is for the Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra 14.6" (2022) 128GB SM-X900 WiFi - Graphite (Renewed). I have to mention that since a lot of these reviews mysteriously end up in other products.Anyway, this unit arrived in excellent condition, practically like new. I didn't do any formal testing, but there's no obvious dead pixels that I can see, and the image quality is excellent.It's a little too heavy for handheld use, but I mostly bought it for reading small text in e-textbooks, PDFs, digital comics, and the like. For this purpose, the Tab S8 Ultra is even better than my Tab S9 Plus. I get that artists and people who use this as a laptop replacement love the Ultra form factor.It's great for streaming movies, TV, etc., if that's your deal. The image quality and speakers are excellent as long as you're not outdoors in bright sunlight.I must say that this unit arrived with a 2TB MicroSD card. I assume that was from the previous owner. I would never buy one of these Ultra tablets brand new. The price is astronomical, but at a sub-$600 price, this is a steal.

I had read the reviews saying that the refurbished Tab S8 didn't come with a stylus and was planning on needing to buy one separately some point down the line, and was pleasantly surprised that mine came with the official S Pen (seemingly new - it was in a sealed plastic package), the official fast charging brick, and a cable too of course.Oh yeah the tablet itself - had it for a day now, it's been great so far. Nothing obviously wrong with it, any hiccups it's had are normal for a new device still learning my usage patterns (and there have been very few of those), I ordered "good" refurbished quality and I'd say it matches that (little bit of paint scraped off one corner but otherwise flawless).I noticed that the different refurbishment quality is sold by different sellers, maybe that's why most people are saying they didn't get an S Pen with theirs? WirelessDistrict is the seller that provided mine, so if you're looking for yours to come with a stylus, try going through them. My guess on what's happening is that Amazon doesn't require refurbished units to include the pen, but WirelessDistrict as a seller chooses to anyway - at least, mine came with one.

I was using three different tablets in my home: a Boox Tab Ultra C, a small Wacom Mobile Studio, and a cheap Galaxy Tab S5e. The Tab S8 Ultra replaced them all! It works great as a Cintiq replacement (it's actually larger and higher resolution than the 13" Wacom Mobile Studio) and I think I can live with its non-e-ink screen compared to the Boox TUC. The TUC was very nice, but the touch screen was often not terribly responsive, especially when using on-screen sliders. Very happy with this tablet!(I ended up ordering two, because the first one, which was shipped from DNCL-TECHZONE, had a couple of visible scratches on the screen, hadn't been factory reset, and the S-pen looked like it had seen much better days, so I returned it. The second one, shipped from WirelessDistrict, looked and worked perfectly.)

The tablet itself is perfect. The battery life isn't as good as my tab s7, but I think that's just because the screen takes more power due to the higher size and brightness. The tablet itself is in excellent condition and looks very sleek.The only reason I don't give 5 stars is because I am certain the included S-pen is either defective or a knock-off. Using the one included with my tab s7 on this is very smooth and registers every time. When I switch to the one included with this tab s8, it doesn't register half the time, and doesn't feel as sleek on the screen. It's quite disappointing, and will be getting sold with the tab s7. The other reason is the charger that's included with it. It looks cool, with three USB ports and a screen that alternates between voltage and amps while charging. However, it can't even do 50% of the wattage that the s8 (or the s7) can take. I may use the brick (although I already have way too many weak ones like this), but the cable is e-waste on arrival for me. I'd rather they didn't include one if it can't do 45W.

Seriously I'd suggest you to everyone the tablet looks and feels and plays brand new! Delivery was so fast and I got to playing right away on my favorite games and new ones as well.The colors are so vibrant and the blacks are so darkThe performance speed is impressive coming from my s6 to a 8ultraThe screen is BIG but not the biggest and it makes cod mobile insanely funBattery life is very reliable and it takes me 2 days to kill it while gaming in high settingsCharging is very quick and great again I come from a s6 which didn't even have the FAST charging this one doseThen there's the sound... holy cow this thing is insanely LOUD if you crank it to max. Even then it can go even further beyond with apps that unlock it's true 100% volume and it's frightening to imagine someone listening to that near there face lolTo whoever worked on refurbishing my tablet thankyou so much your work helped me get this thankyou!!!

Tablet seems to be working fine. this is refurbished one, but when you claim it is in excellent condition then I do not expect to see any deep gashes like this. I would not considered this excellent condition more like fair.
