What sort of argument could you provide to omit the headphone jack on a 14 inch tablet? This is ridiculous. On a phone you could maybe, very forced but maybe, present the argument for portability and integrating things, and adding ingress protection... but on a gigantic 14'' tablet? There is no argument. There should me more than enough space for a jack and plenty of ports for that matter. I see this as a malicious move to force the sale of accessories and wireless buds. Scum.

    Galaxy S8 = Stupeight / stupid (why do you put notch on the wide side)

      afronoia, 23 Oct 2021Thats what I thought too. Slim or non-bezels looks great bu... moreimagine a 14 inch tablet with curved display. 😂

            It looks ugly than the ipad pro
            Samsung is becoming like apple
            They copied almost everything from apple
            I remembered the ad for samsung they compared the screen of samsung galaxy s9 to an iphone x and they mocked apple for the notch in the screen and now they're planning to add a notch in their new tab s8 lineup
            Samsung used to be good before but now its not worth buying nowadays there are so many cheap phones and tablets with good specs even ipad 9th gen is better than the other cheap android tablets

              zillion, 23 Oct 2021Let see the cost. I'm sure it's more than $1000. ... moreWell I think and I wish it is exactly at $999 for the Wifi version of Tab S8 Ultra.

              Wifi Tab S7+ starts at $849. The Tab S8 Ultra is just bigger with bigger battery.

              Although who knows....

                zillion, 23 Oct 2021Let see the cost. I'm sure it's more than $1000. ... moreSD 898, 12.000mAh with 45w, dual cameras front and back with notch, 14" OLED 120Hz. what others tablet have like this? yes me too $1000.

                  Let see the cost. I'm sure it's more than $1000. Samsung price.

                    My love

Slim or non-bezels looks great but only works for TVs, monitors, or laptops. For a tablet larger than 8" where you need to hold with two hands, bezel is still much needed.
                      If Samsung wants to show off their tech, they can make it like previous S Edge phone series where they put only top and bottom bezels (or for tablets, maybe left and right bezels). Just don't use the curved screen.

                            that will bend like paper
                            Nevertheless...this will be the best tablet on the market

                              At least unlike apple you can deactivate that stupid notch especially with an oled display. The question is why are they doing, my guess is it's just for sake exposure, to create controversy and make people talk about the device, and as we all know there is no such thing as "bad" exposure, exposure is always good. Otherwise I can't see any technical reason for this.

                                  hmm, 23 Oct 2021Make a popup camera or something if there needs to be less ... morepop up in a sub 6mm tablet?
                                  not possible.
