Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 could land alongside the Galaxy S22 as an iPad Pro rival

This year has been fairly quiet as far as Android tablets go, with the iPad Pro (2021) gobbling up most of the top-end tablet attention, but an Android rival could land in early 2022, as a source claims that the Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 range will launch alongside the Samsung Galaxy S22.

Tweeter @UniverseIce is the source in question, and technically they only say that the Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Plus will land alongside S22 range, but presumably the standard Galaxy Tab S8 and the rumored Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra would as well.

Of course, we don’t know exactly when the Samsung Galaxy S22 range itself will launch, but we’re expecting it around January of next year.

Additionally, @UniverseIce says that the Galaxy Tab S8 Plus has a 10,090mAh battery (the same size as the Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 Plus’s), and that the Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra has an 11,500mAh one.

We would of course take all of this with a pinch of salt, but this comes from a solid source, and the only other release date rumor also points to a launch in early 2022.

Opinion: Samsung needs to pull out all the stops with the Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra

The Samsung Galaxy Tab S range includes some of the most high-end and best slates you’ll find running Android. But they’re still arguably not a match for the iPad Pro range, and Apple has raised the bar ever higher this year, with the iPad Pro (2021) packing a seriously powerful M1 chipset, and the 12.9-inch model also having a Mini LED screen.

So rumors of a Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra are promising – this would be the first Ultra slate from Samsung, and as it’s positioned even higher than the ‘Plus’ model it could give the iPad Pro range a real run for its money.

Of course, that depends on what Samsung packs in to its Ultra slate and so far we don’t know much about it, but with this rumor of a big battery, and an earlier one pointing to a huge 14.6-inch screen (which dwarfs any iPad) it certainly sounds like the company could be on to a winner. Fingers crossed it all comes together in practice, and doesn’t have too astronomical a price.

What Is the “System Volume Information” Folder, and Can I Delete It?

What Is the “System Volume Information” Folder, and Can I Delete It? On every Windows drive—even external USB drives—you’ll find a “System Volume Information” folder. You’ll only see it if you have Windows set to  show hidden files and folders , but it’s always there. So what is it for? Why Can’t I Open the Folder? On drives formatted with  the NTFS file system , this folder’s permissions are set to prevent everyone from accessing the folder, even users with Administrator permissions. Double-click the folder and you’ll see an error message saying the “location is not available” and “access is denied.” This is normal. That’s because Windows uses this folder for certain system-level features. The permissions are set to prevent users—and programs without the appropriate permissions—from tampering with the files inside and interfering with important system functions. What Is It For? Among other things, Windows stores  System Restore points  in the System Volume

With no good Black Friday iPad deals, it's time to turn to the Android side , DigiTech Geeks Mobile Computing News

With no good Black Friday iPad deals, it's time to turn to the Android side The Black Friday iPad deals are never any good, but in 2021 they've somehow failed to clear that laughably low bar, and we've still been surprised by just how poor the Apple-tablet discounts are this year. Seriously – we're talking just $50 / £50 off super-power iPad Pros , and sometimes no discounts at all on entry-level or Mini tablets – and this outlook very likely won't change for the Cyber Monday iPad deals . If you were wanting to buy a new iPad in the Black Friday sales, it might seem like you're plum out of luck. (Not in the US or UK? Scroll down for deals in your region). It's not all bad news though, not as long as you're willing to try new things (and aren't committed to the Apple ecosystem already). That's because there are a few worthy tablet Black Friday deals on Android slates that make them much, much more tempting than an iPad. Sure, sure, sure: i
