Samsung Galaxy Tab Active 3 Review: Best 8-Inch S Pen Tablet
Ғылым және технология
Samsung Galaxy Tab Active 3 at Amazon*: geni.us/samsungactive3
The Samsung Galaxy Tab Active 3 is the best 8-inch Android tablet you can buy right now. To be fair, that's because there's not much competition. We're getting a pretty 8-inch screen, S Pen support, the stylus is included, and the design is very rugged. The performance is good and with Android 10, Samsung pre-installed up-to-date software including its Samsung DeX desktop mode. I also like that you can make phone calls with the 4G LTE version.
On a negative note, the design of the Galaxy Tab Active 3 looks quite old because it has a removable back and you can replace the battery.
Do you like the Samsung Galaxy Tab Active 3?

Great tablet for basically everything. kzread.infoUgkxLNmVocUk8tnSkwWIlYSNFzWRIaFTBuzS I bought it specifically for art, and that 4k screen is really fantastic for it! Also has LOUD audio, even tho the speakers aren't in necessarily prime locations it really projects!You do need to get a case for this bad boy IMMEDIATLY though as it doesn't come with one.Battery life is really good! Standby time us FANTASTIC. This guy can go about a week on standby and be just fine. The screen is massive so the longer you have the screen on, brightness especially, it will effect battery life. I am very happy with it though!One thing that I didn't consider is that since the screen resolution is so high, viewing ticktocks/ reading webtoons can be slightly blurry. There is no way to turn down resolution either, so it just be like that.Would still judge this bad boi at 10/10 for my first tablet. I've had it 3 months now and its not shown any evidence of "slowing down" or anything. Love it!
I love how this channel is mostly dedicated to tablets, it's so refreshing and different. Now it makes it easier to find a great tablet. You have also earned a new subscriber :). Keep up the great work, God bless you 👑🙏🏾
Literally, thanks to your review here, this is going to be my next tablet! I will use it for 4x4 off road navigation in the Australian Outback, so the good GPS connectivity, the SD card slot, the IP68 rating, the replaceable battery, all perfect!
Been using this for a few weeks with LTE. It is a great device, 8-inch is great form factor s it is quite portable. Much better choice than any of the Android or Windows competition for that size and cheaper than the likely next iPad Mini. Battery life is enough for most days. Would recommend.

You guys should seriously go on Ebay and order a pack of 5 Batteries so you can switch them out when it gets low. Best thing I've ever done. It's like having a tablet that never dies 🤣
What I love about this tablet is that it has the same chipset used in the Galaxy S9, S9+, Note9, and Note10 Lite smartphone. Couple that to S Pen and wired DeX support alongside three major OS update policy*, this is unquestionably the best 8" Android tablet to date. *This tablet does receive Android 11 with OneUI 3.0 update.
I love 7.9in-8.4in tablets! So portable and great PPI for reading books and comics. I wish they would still make more smaller compact tablets.

I need to replace my tab s2 which I love. I've used it every day since I bought it the moment it was released. I can't understand why Samsung don't do more 8 inch devices. What holds me back with this is the weight.
you have the best tablet reviews on youtube , I love your channel
You are the best android tablets reviewer
Nice background at the starting 👌 👍 superb I liked it
great reviews always, thanks, and nice backgrounds too
Love your reviews
Finally, a real successor to the 2013 Nexus 7, but better! I am seriously considering getting one of these for college and using Dex.
The best review easily on this tablet. Thanks! Looking at this since the 4 is quite pricey 😑
Excellent review....it would be nice to see the best optimized apps for Android tabs...
Removable battery is a win for me💪. However, I wish it had a flagship snapdragon processor even if last gen😢. Thanks for the excellent review.

Yes, I got it but returned it. I found I really don't like having two devices (Tab Active5 and S22 Ultra). I think I may just purchase a Galaxy Z Fold.
good review, beautiful town
Came because it's a rugged device. Although small you still have access to the S Pen features. To top it. Can replace the battery AND can make phone calls. O.O I want this tablet. A second speaker would've been nice. But I can deal with one. Plus still has a headphone jack!
I wonder if Samsung will release a decent speccced 8inch tablet in the european market. Something close to Tab S6 (which I have and is wonderful) with an 8 inch display and possibly S-Pen.
There is a company called Strike Alpha from Australia that makes docking station for the Tab Active 3 tablet. Check that out too..
Thanks for review. I ordered it becuase I need solid 8 inch taet
Obrigado grande amigo, fiquei muito feliz em assistir seu vídeo, e já estou inscrito no seu Canal.
Amazing video. Saw this device, in LTE flavor, cheaper than the S6 lite. Size is perfect, and seems powerful. Itching. Would you mind doing a gaming video with it?

Hello. Excellent review! I have been looking high and low to find any information regarding using this tablet as an electronic flight bag for pilots. Such as moving maps, GPS & weather updates etc. Do you think it will fair well with that kind of a load? I REALLY hope you answer this question for me. It would be a great help since you own one. Please and thank you!
I use this on my motorbike as off-road navigation using topographical maps because it's IP68. It's great, very robust, usingRAM mounts. I have the LTE version which i use to send sms when i'm on multi day trips. I still prefer my mini ipad and ios but for my particular use this is great
Best tab😍🔥🔥
Is It just me or we all are addicted to the way he speaks
The #mkbhd of tablet reviewing. Thanks for reviewing devices of my interest a huge fan from India
It’s about time Samsung put DEX on one of their 8” tablets. Really it should be on all of their latest tablets. It’s one of the things iPads lack, a dockable Desktop mode.
iPad Pros been a great tool for work. Quick clip and photo edits are great, Apple Pencils great.... but the closed nature of iOS is annoying me more than I thought. And it's a little too unwieldy for continent media consumption, the Pencil can bump into things and detach more than I'd like, plus I hate having to be so protective of it- one drop and it's done. Kinda craving this device now honestly. The rugged nature is nice, the portability is nice, androids nice, s pen holder is reliable, can still do what I use the iPad for on it, good price, think I might switch despite the pricey endeavor trying Apples been.
8 inch sized tablet is the best size IMHO, as most of the Android apps are still designed for portrait mode. Bought this one some time ago and really love its performance and size. Though it might seem a bit heavy while holding it when reading or surfing at first glance. But the pros significantly overweight all the cons, moreover there is literally no other similar device with same features available on market. Thanks for probably the best deep-in review of this tablet btw.
Hello, thanks for this presentation. What's the maximum capacity of MicroSD card please ? Thanks.
Great tablet ☝, for home i have tab S7+, but for traveling iam gonna get this one 👍

Great review, Many Thanks!!!Looks perfect! Replaceable battery means you can buy a couple of spares to carry with you when traveling! THIS IS A HUGE FEATURE! Is a phone Perfect!,, Is a desktop (of sorts) Pretty bloody good! Is "Chunky", Brilliant!! My big clumsy old hands wont drop it so much and when it does get dropped, it has a reasonable chance of survival! IP56 Brilliant!! Can use it as a navigator in the rain in Asia while riding motorbikes (a surprising number of peeps want this feature even if they don't knot it yet)... Shut up and take my money!!

Can you recommend a good quality screen protector for the 8 inch Galaxy Tab Active2 and Active3? thx much
I just received the Tab Active5 today. For anyone concerned with the green color (as I was), it is more of a grey green. Sorta like a a "Green Hornet" green, if you know what I mean. If I didn't read that the color was green, I would have said it was grey. I actually kind of like the color.
How comes on all your benchmark and charts I never see the galaxy tab s6? Before upgrading from the tab s5e to the s6, by looking at your chart I used to think the s5e had longer lasting battery.
Hey Andrej, you know a thing or two about Samsung tablets, right? 😁 Do you ever experience an issue with the smart pop-up view feature when typing with the on-screen keyboard, whereby it keeps minimising the pop-up window randomly whilst typing? It seems to happen often on my Tab S5e...
Can you review the Galaxy Tab 8.4 2020? I'm seeing some decent deals on eBay to import
Hope you review Lenovo Y700 mini tablet...
FWIW, supposedly no VoLTE which I think is worth mentioning since video says tablet could be direct replacement for phone.
I'm watching this on my samsung galaxy tab 8 2019 with s-pen. Awesome but underpowered. Sound and image quality is excellent though.
Hi! Do you think the Active3 case would be compatible with the Active2? The Active2 case has no grip. Thanks!
How do the colours of the screen on the latest tab active 10 inch version compare to this one?
please do a full comparison between tab s6lite and matepad 10.4 , pleaaaaaaase :(
What portable keyboard were you using. ?
interested in mounting this on a motorcycle for navigation with one of the nav apps, does it get bright enough to view in bright sun light?, and will it receive a gps signal ?
Please i have got a question. Do we have versions that have LTE yet do not have the earpiece for recieving calls?
Great review!! However, is there a comparison between the Tab Active 3 vs the old Galaxy Tab S2? I am currently using the Tab S2 and not sure if Active 3 will be a good option for upgrade, thanks.

Yo tbm soy usuario y si se nota la diferencia y también unos peros, Los peros, son la pantalla que la s2 es amoled y la active 3 es IPS la otra es el peso y dimensiones es súper ligera la s2 en cambio está es pesada y ya después la mejoras son bastantes más almacenamiento, ram , procesador, versión de Android la s2 era de 32 bits en cambio la active 3 te corre todo ya que es potente y 64 bits

Can you compare the Tab Active 8.0 to the Samsung Tab Active Pro 10 please?
I'm not interested in an 8" tablet. That size is fine as a reader, but not much more than that, for me. My Note 9 is just fine for me as far as a phone with features goes. I'm hoping there will be some really good sales in January because I want a 12" screen. As always, a good review!
The device has nfc feature. I wonder that can it read general nfc cards or just bank cards for payment?
Hi what do u think about the zte grand view x 3 8inch
Does it have to be pair to a Samsung phone I want to know which one is it because I’m looking for it on Amazon they said you have to pair a phone with it doesn’t use for phone calls on it own I saw some reviews said you have to pair with a phone with the phone app which is i don’t understand
Is there a possibility to split the screen? E.g: half for a note and the other half is for a pdf file
Any has this? Can this connect to PC and power the Dex for windows like Note and S 10 , 20 ?
Best tablet for university note taking and Netflix under $550 or 400£?. I would love the high refresh rate if possible. Thanks.
What is the refresh rate of the screen for this tablet?
Hi sir,I would like to buy a tablet to use in construction site just to open drawing files and use excel. It shouldnt get affected by rain and it should have a good battery life. What would you recommend to me?
I love the size, I wish it was 7" instead, and the bezels like mentioned are huge. I have the non rugged version and large bezels are absolutely not necessary on that one. On this version bezels do have some utility, but as mentioned are still too large and dated looking. I just need NFC that would've been nice.
