The Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 8.0 launched earlier in April this year alongside the duo of Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 7.0 and Galaxy Tab 4 10.1. It shares similar specs with its cousins, but its 8-inch screen seats comfortably between being too small and too big and might just be the right size for some folks.
