<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Today, <strong>Samsung Electronics Canada</strong> announced its new Galaxy Tab S8 series, which includes the Galaxy Tab S8 and Galaxy Tab S8+, and the first-ever Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra tablet with our biggest, boldest display yet and the most powerful performance Galaxy Tab S has ever offered. Sophisticated hardware, premium productivity features, and seamless Galaxy ecosystem connectivity – are all combined in a single portable powerhouse that is designed to be your perfect companion in an always-on, video-first world. The Galaxy Tab S8 series offers you the freedom and flexibility you deserve to work and play on the go.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Now, we rely on tablets for video calls and streaming. Each Galaxy Tab S8 series device offers an improved video conferencing experience with ultra-wide front cameras, a three-microphone setup, and intelligent auto-framing<a href="#_ftn1" name="_ftnref1"><sup>[1]</sup></a>. The tablets offer revolutionary multitasking capabilities with enhanced Multi-active Windows<a href="#_ftn2" name="_ftnref2"><sup>[2]</sup></a> and Samsung DeX, file-sharing with password-protected Quick Share<a href="#_ftn3" name="_ftnref3"><sup>[3]</sup></a>, powerful productivity with the new super-fast 4nm processor, and a smoother S Pen included in the box<a href="#_ftn4" name="_ftnref4"><span>[4]</span></a>. All of this is packed into the thinnest and toughest Armor Aluminum<a href="#_ftn5" name="_ftnref5"><sup>[5]</sup></a> body yet for greater portability, and enhanced your mobile experience. The Galaxy Tab S8 series works hand-in-hand with your full ecosystem of Galaxy devices, thanks to features like Second Screen and Buds Auto Switch<a href="#_ftn6" name="_ftnref6"><sup>[6]</sup></a>.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>“As we rely more on videos to stay connected and entertained, we know that a tablet’s most compelling feature is its large screen and portability,” said TM Roh, President &amp; Head of MX Business at Samsung Electronics. “We built on years of innovation in mobile experiences to refine the Galaxy Tab S8 series, and to push the boundaries of what’s possible on a tablet with the first Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra.”</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><strong>Expand Your World with the First Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra</strong></h3>
<p>The Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra offers a premium tablet experience that is unlike any Galaxy Tab before it. With its expansive 14.6-inch Super AMOLED display and 120Hz refresh rate, it also boasts the thinnest bezels yet on a Galaxy tablet at 6.3mm for a maximum screen-to-body ratio and a truly immersive experience. Its gorgeous display is protected by an Armor Aluminum frame, making it over 30% more scratch-resistant and 40% less prone to bending than its predecessor.<a href="#_ftn7" name="_ftnref7"><span>[7]</span></a> With premium technology you can take just about anywhere, the Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra is built to fully immerse you in every video, movie, game and more, on-the-move.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Equipped with powerful dual 12MP front cameras, the Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra also transforms your video call experience with professional 4K video quality. Advanced hardware meets software with Samsung auto-framing technology that automatically keeps you in focus during a call, while also zooming in or out to include new participants as they join you. You’ll also sound as clear as you look, thanks to three precision microphones that use advanced noise reduction technology to prevent unwanted background chatter. Quad Speakers with Dolby Atmos®, found on all three Galaxy Tab S8 series models, ensure that everything sounds incredible and clear.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

<h3><strong>Work, Play and Connect</strong></h3>
<p>Whether you want to explore your artistic side, be immersed in lag-free gaming, or simply multitask with ease, the Galaxy Tab S8 series is the tablet you need for unbeatable performance. Equipped with the first 4nm chip – the fastest processor ever in a Galaxy Tablet – Galaxy Tab S8 and Galaxy Tab S8+ also provide ample RAM and storage for any task. If you need more, the Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra can expand to 12 GB of RAM and up to 256 GB of storage, and all three models offer expandable storage of up to 1 TB with an optional microSD<a href="#_ftn8" name="_ftnref8"><sup>[8]</sup></a> card.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The Galaxy Tab S8 series is also the first Samsung tablet to support Wi-Fi 6E<a href="#_ftn9" name="_ftnref9"><sup>[9]</sup></a>, which provides up to double the bandwidth<a href="#_ftn10" name="_ftnref10"><sup>[10]</sup></a> and maximum speed of Wi-Fi 6.

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra and Galaxy Tab S8+ both come with a new and improved S Pen that delivers an incredible writing experience that mimics gliding a pen across paper thanks to its ultra-low latency<a href="#_ftn15" name="_ftnref15"><sup>[15]</sup></a>.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra boasts new 4K recording capabilities now allow you to capture crisp, eye-catching videos with both the rear camera and ultra-wide front camera. Content creators and streamers can effortlessly create online tutorials and gameplay, using customizable Selfie Videos<a href="#_ftn16" name="_ftnref16"><sup>[16]</sup></a> that are now embedded within Samsung’s Screen Recorder.</p>

<p>Tablets also play an important role in keeping you connected to others.

									<description><![CDATA[First ‘TUV Intelligent Eye Care’ Certified Displays Offer Life-Like Picture in Convenient Ergonomic Package for Professional Performance Samsung Electronics]]></description>
																<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3 style="text-align: center;"><em>First ‘TUV Intelligent Eye Care’ Certified Displays Offer Life-Like Picture in Convenient Ergonomic Package for Professional Performance </em></h3>
<p>Samsung Electronics Canada recently announced its new lineup of 2021 High-Resolution monitors. This year’s portfolio delivers life-like picture quality and enhanced convenience with advanced ergonomic design, making it the ideal complement to any workspace or at-home setup.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Designed to meet the needs of today’s businesses and consumers who require excellent picture quality and comfortable, ergonomic design, Samsung Canada offers six different High-Resolution monitors across two series – the S8 and S6. All models deliver more than 1 billion colours for a vivid and vibrant image, enhanced by HDR 10 technology. The displays feature colour vividness and clarity with a 178-degree wide viewing angle designed for professional work environments, delivering an uncompromising viewing experience from any angle.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&#8220;As we continue to experience demand for higher resolution monitors, we remain committed to delivering new innovations designed to meet the needs of today’s consumers,&#8221; said <strong>Mary Peterson, Vice President, IT &amp; Enterprise Solutions, Samsung Electronics Canada</strong>. &#8220;Our lineup of 2021 High-Resolution monitors boasts incredible picture quality and enhanced performance, in addition to ensuring user comfort with a streamlined, eco-conscious design.&#8221;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>In addition, all monitors are Intelligent Eye Care certified from TÜV Rheinland<a href="#_ftn1" name="_ftnref1"><span>[1]</span></a>. Adaptive Picture eye care technology optimizes picture quality for any viewing environment by automatically adjusting brightness and colour temperature in response to room conditions. This ensures the most comfortable viewing experience in any environment, reducing eye strain even after extended use. The monitors also include a special eye-saver mode to reduce blue light emissions which can cause eye strain, and Flicker Free feature, shielding the user’s eyes from any flickering on the screen.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><strong>S8: Superior visuals and ergonomic design</strong></h3>
<p>The S8 is packed with key features for both businesses and creative professionals. This model provides Ultra-High Definition (UHD) resolution and is available in 27- and 32-inch options. In addition to supporting UHD and over 1 billion colours, the S8 delivers a 99% sRGB colour gamut for users to enjoy more vivid content<a href="#_ftn2" name="_ftnref2"><span>[2]</span></a>.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The S8U is capable of blazing fast 10Gbps data transmission through its USB-C type port, and offers up to 90W charging. The S8 also provides a variety of connectivity features including USB 3.0 and a USB hub to provide enhanced usability and versatility. The flat borderless design maximizes comfort and minimizes distractions while enabling near-seamless dual-monitor setups. Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA) mount compatibility and Height Adjustable Stand (HAS) offer a variety of tilt, swivel and pivot control points, allowing users to mount their monitor in any environment. The slim metal stand and narrow depth also take up less desk space for a cleaner, seamless work setup.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><strong>S6: Simple and seamless for any setup</strong></h3>
<p>The S6 series is available in 34-, 32-, 27- and 24-inch sizes, supporting not only QHD (2,560&#215;1,440) resolution, but also PBP (Picture By Picture) and PIP (Picture In Picture) features, enabling users to multitask effortlessly and efficiently. The S60UA monitors support Daisy Chain technology, allowing extended multiple screen and screen reproduction, and also LAN cable (RJ45 compatibility), transforming the monitor into a Docking Station Hub.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The S65UA 34-inch monitor in Ultra-Wide Quad High-Definition (UWQHD) offers a 1000R curvature, further enhancing productivity with a 21:9 aspect ratio for optimal multi-tasking. The S6 series is also supported by customizable swivel, tilt and rotation functionality, allowing users to find their perfect viewing angle as they can swivel the screen<span style="text-decoration: line-through;">.</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The Samsung High-Resolution monitor lineup is available in a variety of models, sizes and specifications. Please see the specification table for further information about each model.
