Our Verdict

Ipad Pro 12 9 (2022) vs Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra

The Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra wins on display with its 14.6-inch Super AMOLED panel versus the iPad Pro’s 12.9-inch mini-LED LCD, making it 1.7 inches larger and offering deeper blacks with HDR10+ support at 120Hz. Artists and professionals needing precise input should choose the iPad Pro 12.9 (2022) 1TB for its Apple Pencil 2 support, 1TB storage for large project files, and seamless integration with Mac and iPadOS apps like Procreate and Final Cut. Buyers prioritizing screen real estate and lower upfront cost should pick the Tab S8 Ultra 256GB, especially if they rely on Android apps, multitasking with DeX, and avoid expensive stylus add-ons. In UAE at AED 3750 vs AED 3199, the Tab S8 Ultra is better because its 1.7-inch larger OLED screen delivers superior media immersion; in India at ₹169999 vs ₹84999, the Tab S8 Ultra wins on value because it includes an S Pen in the box while the iPad Pro requires a separate AED 499 or ₹22000 stylus purchase.
