Like Galaxy S22, Samsung didn’t include charger with Galaxy Tab S8

Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Series

Samsung has made it clear that users will not need a charger with their Galaxy Tab S8 buyers. Samsung Online Shop confirms that the Galaxy Tab S8 did not come with a charger in the box. Unfortunately, the packaging only includes the USB-C data cable, not the power brick.

Logically, it is fair to assume that Samsung’s decision to ditch the AC adapter will be driven by more durable packaging. Fewer items in the box can lead to a smaller box, i.e. less packaging. However, there is really no way to find out what prompted Samsung to go on this pathway.

Looking at the price of the device, you would think that Samsung might have an AC adapter. And the news is a little worse. The charger is not available on any version of the Galaxy Tab S8.

No charger is available on any version of Galaxy Tab S8!

If not getting the Galaxy Tab S8 charger is not so bad then it is not getting any kind of charger. If you do not buy one of the more expensive models, perhaps the biggest advantage is that you do not feel left out.

On the other hand, a device with an actual price of $700 does not seem to come with an AC plug. Even more insane when you consider the Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra priced at a minimum of $1,100 or $1,400 for a top model with 16GB of RAM and 512GB of storage.

What makes this decision even more interesting is that Samsung’s main competitor in the tablet space, Apple has AC adapters with its latest iPads. What do you get when you buy a Galaxy Tab S8, S8 +, or S8 Ultra?

Well, unlike the tablet, the box has a USB-C data cable, an S Pen, and an SD card slot ejector tool. And that’s it. While this may not be a big problem for those who have an AC adapter from a recent device, some users will definitely need a new one.

And in this case, they would have to buy it separately if they did not already have it. There is good news though. Samsung has a 45W power adapter that comes with an extra cable that sells for $50.

Samsung denies as Apple wants cheaper OLED for iPhone SE 4: Report

Apple iPhone SE 2025

Apple is reportedly working on a new device and the Cupertino-based company was in talks with Samsung and other manufacturers for the supply of display panels. Meanwhile, a new report suggests that Samsung denies this deal as Apple wants cheaper OLED for iPhone SE 4.

According to the details, Apple is been considering top manufacturers like Samsung and BOE as the main suppliers for the OLED of its iPhone SE 4. Consequently, the US tech giant is planning to launch the iPhone SE 4 next year with an expected production of 15 million units.

However, this massive production volume might make the iPhone SE 4 extremely beneficial for suppliers, but Samsung Display has refused to provide a display for the phone. Because, Apple has rejected Samsung’s offer of $30 per panel and seeking a more budget-friendly option.

Yes, the US tech giant only wants to pay $25 per display and is therefore said to be switching to Chinese manufacturers such as BOE for production. Notably, Apple’s focus on cost-saving for its budget-oriented iPhone SE line is legible, as displays are among the most expensive components.

Previously leaked renders of the iPhone SE 4 hint that, Apple is planning to offer some significant changes with its upcoming affordable phone because the design of the device looks identical to the iPhone 14.

The device is expected to sport a larger 6.1-inch display with a home button and a notch size similar to the iPhone 13/14 series. In addition, the device also houses a Face ID and a single primary camera at the back.
