Back in early August this year, South Korean tech giant Samsung announced the Galaxy Tab S4 as a successor to the Galaxy Tab S3 that was announced last year at Mobile World Congress. Well, after more than two months from the announcement, the Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 has finally made its debut in India.
The Galaxy Tab S4 boasts a 10.5-inch AMOLED display that has aspect ratio of 16:10 and a resolution of 2560 x 1600 pixels. The display also has a pixel density of 287 ppi. In terms of build, the Galaxy Tab S4 rocks a glass-metal construction which means the front and back of the tablet are covered with glass, with the frames made out of metal.
Under the hood, the Galaxy Tab S4 comes with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 835 SoC which is a flagship chip from last year. The Snapdragon 835 is mated to 4 GB RAM. The Galaxy Tab S4 runs Android 8.1 Oreo out-of-the-box, and comes in two storage options – 64 GB and 256 GB. However, in India, Samsung has only launched the 64 GB storage variant. But don’t worry, as the tablet does come with a microSD card slot that lets you expand the storage up to 400 GB.
The Galaxy Tab S4 also comes with cameras for photography. At the back, the tablet has a 13 MP camera. And on the front, it has an 8 MP camera. The tablet doesn’t come with a fingerprint scanner, but, it does come with Iris Scanner and Intelligent Scan for authentication and security.
The Galaxy Tab S4 is offered in Black and Gray colors, and, it comes packed with a massive 7300 mAh battery that draws power from a USB Type-C port. The tablet also comes with features like AKG-tuned speakers (two each at the top and bottom) and Samsung DeX. Furthermore, it also comes with S Pen that lets you quickly jot down notes using the Screen-Off Memo feature. It can also be used to create personalized text messages with the help of Samsung Live Message feature.
