Moreover, the Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 series was considered as one of the best-selling tablet models in India in the first quarter of 2022.

According to a Deccan Herald report citing market research firm IDC, Samsung became the leader in the Indian tablet market by securing over 40 percent market share with up to 10 percent quarter-on-quarter (QoQ) growth in the first quarter of 2022, as compared to the previous quarter.
