Just bought tab s8+ to replace my cracked tab s7+

Yet to notice any difference in usage.

All my tab s7+ accessories can be re-used.

Tempered glass affects the fingerprint recognition. Occasionally hit not recognised
I’m using Spigen TG and doesn’t affect fingerprint.

have you ever tried the fingerprint with the tempered glass ?
Yes. I applied the TG before I even setup the tablet. Went straight to shop and ask the xmm to apply for my Tab 8 ultra. Went home setup the tablet, fingerprint working fine. Unlock every time I try.

What is the fingerprint reader technology for Tab S8 Ultra? Is it optical or ultrasonic?

UPDATE: It is optical sensor.

I think you need to figure out what A and V is required for Super Fast Charging 2.0 for the Tab 8+. It is possible that Samsung may have changed the combination, thus, it is not working.

I need to press the button on the pen first before the write screen appear. Did u press the button?

thanks.

very different in behaviour

Note 10
  • when screen is off, pull out s-pen, screen will immediate show the "off screen memo" ready to use.
Tab S8 plus
  • when screen is off, take out s-pen, screen will turn on to show unlock screen.
  • Need to wait till screen is off, then press button on s-pen and double tap on screen, then the "off screen memo" is launched & ready to use.
