Have you ever wished you could turn your passion into a career?

Today’s youth are eager to forge new career paths for themselves in pursuit of purpose, passion and flexibility. Technology has played a major role in this development, opening the door to unlimited possibilities by affording the workforce of the next generation the power and autonomy to make their work truly their own.

Today, we spotlight three individuals based in Singapore who have taken the path less travelled, and the role played by Samsung Electronics’ Galaxy Tab S8 in boosting productivity and optimizing their work experiences across a range of interesting and unconventional career paths.

Dissecting Lives Through Handwriting

▲ Siti Sulianah

What if there was a way to look into a person’s soul without even having to speak to them? Enter the world of graphology with handwriting expert and Graphologist Siti Sulianah, an individual adept at gleaning insight into personalities through the analysis of handwriting traits such as strokes, pressure and spaces.

What started off as a means of conflict resolution between friends in her youth soon grew into a calling for Sulianah, who today puts her skills to use in a professional capacity at her self-founded graphology company. On top of handwriting analysis, Sulianah provides graphotherapy services — conscious alteration to handwriting to effect a desired change in personality.

The Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra, with its super-fast 4nm processor and smoothest S Pen yet, not only replicates but elevates the pen-and-paper experience. “I’m very impressed with the S Pen, which is extremely sharp in capturing tiny handwriting details that would require a magnifying glass to examine if they were written on paper,” shared Sulianah. The multi-screen functionality of the tablet also greatly streamlines her analysis process, as annotations and note-taking can be done concurrently and housed within the same device, with minimal disruption to workflow. In addition, graphotherapy consultations are made more effective with live S Pen demonstrations via video call, as compared to static image references in the past.

Bees in Need

▲ Xavier Tan

Drizzled on pancakes or stirred into tea, honey has a way of making every sweet treat a little more delectable. For most, however, the first thought that comes to mind upon seeing a beehive is to call for pest control. This is why Bee Rescuer Xavier Tan hopes to shift the conversation away from bee extermination and instead towards humane methods of bee removal.

An animal lover from a young age, Tan grew to understand the importance of bees as a keystone species, without which the ecosystem would drastically change for the worse. He thus went on to establish a bee rescue organization with the mission of saving the bees through conservation and educational efforts. On top of bee relocation to their gardens, the group is actively involved in raising awareness of beekeeping practices as well as methods of peaceful co-existence.

A powerful all-in-one device with a 12.4” Super AMOLED screen, the Tab S8+ is a device Tan never finds himself without when out on bee rescue missions. Before, during and after shots of these missions are captured with the tablet’s powerful camera and then transformed into informative video content using the tablet’s in-built video-editing functions. “The large display size of the tablet allows me to share my content clearly and effectively with clients and visitors,” shared Tan.

Let’s Talk… to Your Pets

▲ Ezekiel Ong

Have you ever wished you knew exactly what was going on in the head of your furry friend? For Ezekiel Ong, this tacit and intimate understanding of animals forms the basis of his work at his animal communications company, where he receives, interprets and relays information from pets to their owners.

His first foray into the field of animal communication was driven by the need to bid a final farewell to his beloved pet that passed on. Today, Ong strives to help others better understand their pets by acting as a bridge between the two. His work as an Animal Communicator includes helping owners find out more about their pets’ behaviour and well-being, getting in touch with pets who have passed on and conducting animal communication workshops.

The Tab S8 greatly optimizes Ong’s pet consultation process through the computerization of handwritten and typewritten notes enabled by its S Pen and magnetically attached keyboard respectively. Video calls with overseas clients also go off without a hitch thanks to the tablet’s powerful processor and stunning video and audio quality. “The tablet also allows me to carry notes and course materials around with ease, and it features a long battery life that makes lessons very efficient,” shared Ong.

Do what you love, and you’ll never work a day in your life. Though the adage rings true, pursuing the path less travelled is equal parts exciting and daunting, and requires a tenacity and strength of will exemplified by Sulianah, Tan and Ong. If you’re looking to turn your passion into a profession, why not unlock your fullest potential with the Galaxy Tab S8?

Even in split-screen mode, apps are still easy to use, spacious and adjustable to fit your needs.

You can easily replay the voice recording and follow along with your notes, conveniently synced to the audio, to help you take in even the most complex information.

With the device’s three precision microphones, you can also minimize distractions, reducing background noise for even sharper, clearer audio.

There are times when you just need a laptop, like when you’re completing assignments or preparing to give a group presentation. When this is the case, Samsung DeX³ gives you that PC-like experience, so you can open up multiple app windows at once, just like you would on a PC.

With the newly upgraded S Pen, you can write as smoothly and effortlessly on your tablet as you do on paper. The S Pen has a 30% faster response speed⁵ through a prediction algorithm for a truer pen-to-paper or brush-to-canvas experience. If you’re annoyed by clacking laptop keys or just prefer to write by hand, the S Pen will become your writing utensil of choice.

The innovative legacy that the Galaxy lineup is known for doesn’t just stop at its smartphones — it applies to all of Samsung Electronics’ devices, too. While maintaining the characteristics of each device, be it smartphone, tablet, or laptop, the Galaxy design refines each product into a simple form. This design ethos integrates advanced technology with the latest trends while maintaining a consistent identity.

The new Galaxy Tab S8 series carries on this legacy. Optimized performance is married with a refined design to expand the user experience in a way that is true to the Galaxy Tab S series.

An Iconic Identity

The Galaxy Tab series has developed over the years, seeing the addition of core user experiences that reflect changing user needs and the application of the latest technologies to devices with a consistent and unique identity. The Galaxy Tab S8 series is a key part of the definitive Galaxy legacy and identity, and consistently reflects the new and improved experiences it provides to users through its design.

The S Pen, a key part of the Galaxy Tab S series experience, bestows a one-of-a-kind identity to the Galaxy Tab S8 series while providing flexible and efficient usability, and has always been included in the box alongside a Galaxy Tab S series device since its first iteration to accompany the user from the beginning. The Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra and S8+ both come with a new and improved S Pen that uses a prediction algorithm for ultra-low latency¹ — delivering an incredible writing experience that mimics gliding a pen across paper. The S Pen charging track on the back of the Tab S8 ensures gentle and firm use by means of a magnet, and the camera hole, S Pen and the Samsung Electronics logo all align smoothly on the back of the device in a linear layout to provide a sense of unity.

The Galaxy Tab S8 series once again offers its users a selection of timeless and harmonious colors. Three colors are available to the series’ users: premium Graphite and Silver hues and a trendy and calming shade of Pink Gold. The matte surface of the tablet, trimmed to match the reinforced metal material, blends luxuriously with the premium color, whichever swatch a user opts for.

Expanded Experiences

The Galaxy Tab S series has always provided users with a wide viewing experience by merit of a large screen. This experience has been further expanded with the Galaxy Tab S8 series. The screen comes in a super slim bezel that brings new depths of immersion, while the enlarged screen is simplified to help you navigate better.

The overall design of the Galaxy Tab S8 series comes together to provide a unified and concise user experience in a way that maintains familiarity by utilizing the same keyboard shortcuts as a PC does. The Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra’s expansive screen also makes it easy for a user to split the screen into multiple, resizable windows, so they can multitask without having to toggle between apps.²

From a communication perspective, the ultra-wide front camera on the Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra helps users communicate clearly when using the device’s wide screen during video calls or meetings. Additionally, the ultra-wide angle camera automatically adjusts for optimal composition, and the 3-way mic solution delivers clearer sound to provide a truly enhanced video communication experience.

Purposeful Versatility

Samsung’s Galaxy products endeavor to align with the priorities of today’s society and help their users in their pursuit of more diverse and more sustainable lifestyles. Along with its eco-conscious packaging, the Galaxy Tab S8 series also lets users express their true diverse selves thanks to the versatility of its cover.

The Galaxy Tab S8 series’ cover³ is convenient to use and adds to the enjoyable user experience of the tablet as a whole. The new Book Cover Keyboard for the Galaxy Tab S8 series provides the experience of using a laptop thanks to its full keyboard and backlight. While glass is used for the touchpad itself, premium antibacterial polyurethane has been applied to the touchpad area to improve its usability. Additionally, the Note View Cover for the Galaxy Tab S8 and S8+ allows users to write directly with the S Pen on the transparent cover that mimics the pen-to-paper sensation.

The Galaxy Tab S8 and S8+’s Strap Cover can be rotated 360˚, letting users hold the tablet in one hand and use it freely in any desired direction. The Protective Standing Cover for the Galaxy Tab S8 series features an air pocket and an internal shock-resistant structure to firmly protect the device, while its free-stop hinge allows users to freely adjust the standing angle.

Only the Essentials

The Galaxy Tab S8 series’ packaging focuses on just the essentials, carrying only the essence of the product and reflecting those values held dear to us today. The product thickness, camera structure, S Pen and coloring are presented in a way that allows users to be instantly aware of the key characteristics of their Galaxy Tab S series product. The package itself is the thinnest yet in the series, with the minimization of its volume and weight allowing for the conservation of resources and a reduction in energy used for transportation.

The secret behind the beloved legacy of Galaxy products is in the consistent delivery of those values that are unique to the Galaxy series. Samsung’s designers are constantly persevering on their journey to bring new technologies to users while continuing to preserve the essential identity of each Galaxy product.

A Tablet You Can Trust and Feel Good About

In today’s always-connected world, security is more important than ever, which is why all three Galaxy Tab S8 models are equipped with new features that give the ability to track when your tablet’s camera and microphone are in use and allow you to instantly block all app access to prevent unwanted recording. The Galaxy Tab S8 Series is also protected by Samsung’s industry-leading Knox Vault platform, which encrypts personal data and keeps stored files and information isolated from the device’s main operating system to safeguard it from attacks. All members of the lineup sport an intuitive fingerprint scanner²⁵ that enables single-touch device unlocking.

As part of our commitment to giving users the best possible mobile performance and experience, the Galaxy Tab S8 series will be supported by up to four generations of Android OS upgrades and 5 years of security updates.²⁶ Now millions of Galaxy users can increase the lifecycle of their devices even further with the most up-to-date security, productivity and other exciting new features, as Samsung continues to scale this effort across our product line-up and your Galaxy ecosystem.

Standout Sustainable Design

The Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra comes in bold and timeless Graphite, and Galaxy Tab S8 and S8+ come in three sophisticated shades — Graphite, Silver and Pink Gold.²⁷ Samsung is also releasing a new Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra Book Cover Keyboard²⁸ that takes the Ultra’s functionality even further with wider, backlit keycaps, customizable shortcut settings and adjustable standing angles. The Book Cover Keyboard features premium, antimicrobial polyurethane leather and a glass-coated touchpad that enables smooth and responsive typing. Plus, Wireless Keyboard Share²⁹ can link your connected keyboard to a Galaxy smartphone for easy typing across devices.

You also have plenty of ways to express your personal style with distinctive Galaxy Tab S8 accessories and add-ons, including a transparent Note View Cover that enables handwriting with S Pen, even while the cover protects the screen, and an eye-catching Strap Cover to hold your Tab S8 in the orientation that suits you best.³⁰

Samsung is also proud to help reduce ocean-bound plastic and protect the planet, with the Galaxy Tab S8 partially constructed with plastic components repurposed from discarded fishing nets. Samsung is helping lead the industry by employing this practice. The Galaxy Tab S8 devices also come in Samsung’s slimmest packaging to date, made from sustainably-sourced paper, which enables the company to lower emissions, and produce less waste.
