Though theSamsung Galaxy Tab S9has proven to be a worthy upgrade from the olderGalaxy Tab S8, its predecessor remains agreat Android tablet. It can also be found at deep discounts now that the Tab S9 has materialized on shelves and offers rock-solid performance, a lovely display, and excellent battery life.

If you have a Tab S8, you’ll want to keep it safe from cracks, impacts, and scratches with one of the best cases, as it’s far from a bargain tablet. So ensure you’re not paralyzed with fear the next time you drop the device, and consider a cover from this diverse list.

A masterclass in balance, durability, and features, the Spigen Rugged Armor Pro keeps your tablet safe from all but the biggest drops without being overly big or heavy. Internal air cushioning, a sleep-supporting magnetic front cover, and a sturdy kickstand make it easy to use and the most effective way to protect your investment. We also like the S Pen storage slot; it doesn’t force you to pry the pen out violently like some others.

Made famous by its top-of-the-line cases for Apple’s esteemed tablets, Dexnor’s Galaxy Tab S8 case boasts features competitors can only dream of. Its floating cantilever hinge raises the tablet for perfect ergonomics, and it’s one of the few models with a built-in trackpad. If you use your Galaxy tablet as a laptop replacement, this is the case for you.

You don’t need to spend a fortune to get a capable tablet case from JETech. It’s not particularly fancy, but it does the job and holds up well, enabling auto-wake and sleep and giving you multiple angles to view and interact with your favorite content easily. Plus, it comes in a variety of fun colors, other than just boring black.

In partnership with Supcase

Only a few manufacturers protect electronics better than Supcase. Its familiar Unicorn Beetle Pro series offers more protection to the Tab S7 and S8 than nearly any other case. That’s partly due to its attached front frame and screen protector, which render the tablet nearly impervious to scratches and drops. A reliable fold-out kickstand and port covers for keeping dust out add the extra touches that make this such a great all-around case.

If you want durability, simplicity, and plenty of grip at a low price, check out the Poetic TurtleSkin. It doesn’t have any big features other than notable protection and a slot for the S Pen, but it’s one of the best choices for handheld use. It’s also an excellent option for tablets that kids will use a lot.

Rugged silicone bumpers on the edges, a scratch-resistant front cover, and a see-through back panel make the Fintie Hybrid a dependable and safe Tab S8 case and also a great-looking one. There are several designs to choose from, including our favorite, the classic mottled black and white Composition Book version. To top it off, it’s one of the most affordable choices.

If you don’t mind spending a little more and you’re in the market for an add-on keyboard to go with your Tab S8, this Book Cover from Samsung itself is the best option available. The chicklet-style keyboard feels great to use but adds very little bulk to the tablet, and the grippy protector will keep that precious glass screen safe from the vicissitudes of our cruel world.

The Tab S8 is just big enough to encourage a little productivity now and then, and a keyboard goes a long way toward that same goal. This case from the increasingly popular manufacturer, Fintie, is as lightweight and affordable as any Bluetooth-enabled typists' folio, and it even comes in a handful of eye-catching designs. It’s a great case that’s actually cheaper than some other good cases that don’t even include keyboards.

Soke’s Tab S8 folio case isn’t exactly fancy and lacks high-end features, but it doesn’t cost much and comes in a wide range of bold colors. And it still includes the most basic features, like a multi-angle kickstand and a slot for stowing the S Pen. The version we’ve highlighted here has a solid plastic back that offers more protection than the cheaper model’s soft back.

Kids are hard on electronics, but the KidProof case from SaharaCase does a great job of keeping your device in one piece. It’s as thick and resilient as anything on the market and sports a sturdy carrying handle that minimizes the risk of careless drops from young folks. The drawbacks are that the colors, form factor, and functions aren’t particularly convenient or beneficial to most adults.

For 360 protection, it’s hard to beat the Poetic Revolution. With a built-in screen protector, port covers, rugged polycarbonate back, and shock-absorbing TPU, it’ll shield the display, the rear, and even the S pen from damage in the event of a drop or hard bump.

If you want to protect your Tab S8 while adding as little bulk to the overall package as possible (and also don’t want to obscure the beautiful industrial design furnished by the engineers at Samsung), consider this cover by ProCase. Its frosted back allows you to view the tablet’s exterior, and it’s lightweight enough that you’ll barely notice the additional mass.

And don’t spend more than you need

Unless you’re extremely brave and sure of yourself, you need a case for your high-dollar Samsung Galaxy tablet. Spigen’s Rugged Armor is really good and extremely popular, doing a fantastic job of preventing damage. However, if you want to get the most out of the device, consider Dexnor’s keyboard-plus-trackpad case. It adds a noticeably premium flair while turning the tablet into a laptop. The Fintie keyboard case is worth a look if you want that added productivity bonus, but don’t want to splash out around $100. It’s cheaper than the Dexnor.

If you’re looking for simpler but still effective protection, I recommend the Poetic TurtleSkin, or the JETech Slim Folio if you want a built-in, multi-angle stand. Both SupCase and Poetic offer similar kickstand cases, with the options of integrated screen protectors for the ultimate in peace of mind.

For such a popular tablet, you have plenty of options. Soke’s case is cheap, functional, and good-looking, and the SaharaCase KidProof lives up to its name. The Fintie Hybrid Slim offers reasonable protection in a slim package, and the fan-favorite composition book design is pretty neat.
