Samsung Galaxy Tab S8+ is equipped with a Super AMOLED display that refreshes at a rate of 120Hz. Its size is 12.4 inches for a resolution of 1752 x 2800 pixels. The ratio is not less as it stands at 16:10 where the density is 266ppi. Protection against accidental drops and scratches is admitted just like the iPad Pro 2022.

We all know that Apple manufactures its own components and for the 2 models of the iPad Pro 2022, they have opted for the Apple M2 as chipset. The operating system is iPad OS 16.1 which supports the latest applications with support for system updates. All the tasks are divided between 8 cores for their very fast processing. The graphics side is managed by the Apple GPU with 10 graphics cores; enough to run the most resource-intensive mobile games without worrying about overheating or hardware degradation.

The storage technology used is UFS and the capacities vary between 128GB 8GB RAM, 256GB 8GB RAM, 256GB 12GB RAM, 512GB 16GB RAM. The tablet allows you to expand the storage already available with a micro SD card.
The Apple M2 seen by Cpu-monkey provides better performance than the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1. Although a powerful processor, its execution frequency is lower than that of the Apple M2. Beyond that, the amount of RAM supported is lacking and the Apple M2 admits more than double what the Sdg 8 Gen 1 can support.

The second shooter captures images at 10MP at slightly wider angles up to 125o. Additional features vary between cinematic mode for captivating effects on images, video filters and high definition. Flash LEDs allow a better luminosity of the places or objects to be captured. At the front, a sensor is embedded in the screen for taking photos and video chat. The front sensor is an ultra-wide-angle type with 12MP, supporting facial recognition, panorama shots and high definition.

At the back there are 2 cameras, one of which is 13MP wide angle and another of 6MP. A Led Flash has also been placed for good high definition photos and panoramic views. A front camera also exists on the device with a capacity of 12MP.
The characteristics of a device do not always make it the ideal choice for us because the value in the market also matters.
