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 richer blacks and higher contrast. Artists and professionals who rely on precise stylus input should choose the iPad Pro 12.9, as it supports Apple Pencil Pro with pressure sensitivity, tilt detection, and seamless pairing, while its M2 chip and 256GB storage handle heavy design apps smoothly. The Tab S8 Ultra suits those prioritizing screen real estate for multitasking or media, especially in India where its ₹76,999 price avoids the need for costly S Pen accessories, unlike the iPad’s mandatory extra-cost stylus. In UAE at AED 2899 vs AED 3000, the Tab S8 Ultra is better because of its larger OLED screen; in India at ₹76,999 vs ₹109,999, the Tab S8 Ultra wins on value because it includes the S Pen and costs ₹33,000 less without sacrificing performance or screen size.
