I browse the ipad subreddit from time to time and this is not entirely true. People there will still recognize the tab s8 as a great device for media consumption, due to amoled and 120Hz. I have seen threads where they recommended it over the regular ipad and old ipad air/pro. They just generally think the ipad is better for art (procreate) and some specific work apps. It is not entirely wrong lol.

How is that low, they even go for as low as $250 in my countrt
