Just picked up an S9 FE somewhere around the end of March, and I have been loving it so far (I also got it on sale for $349.99). I currently am using Krita as my main art application until I decide if I am ready to start spending money on art programs. The animation speed increase made this tablet feel so much better to use. Thanks for this video!

I just bought a new Tab S9 FE, first thing I did was try to download Fresco. Stupidly didn't realise you couldn't get it on Android (thought it was just procreate). So I listed it for sale and went and bought a used iPad Air 4 haha :p Not a fan of Apple but it's actually pretty good and better in hand than the S9 FE.

Android tablets have surged ahead, leaving iPads behind-and I own both. My $1,400 Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra easily outshines my $2,600 iPad M4. Apple’s pricing is absurd: $800 more for just 1TB extra. I’ve switched to a Google Pixel, and my iPhone? Forgotten. Procreate held me back due to content creators and their bs. Switching revealed other apps are just as good. Changing tablets felt daunting, but it turned out to be a great move. If he did move away from iPads and procreate I could understand why!

I bought my S9 FE last week. I got the 256Gb version on sale, it was €70 more than the S6 Lite 2024 64Gb, €20 more than the S6 128Gb and the same price as the S9 FE with 128GB. The FE has 128Gb storage + 6Gb or memory or 256Gb storage + 8Gb memory. S6 Lite only 64Gb or 128Gb storage + 4Gb memory. The screen refresh is 60Hz S9 vs 90Hz FE and the resolution is lower on the S6 and it runs on the older Exynos 1280, instead of the 1380 in the FE. The 1380 is significant faster. The S9 FE has an IP68 rating, making it water and dust proof and it has a fingerprint scanner. If you only do some sketches and limit your layers and complexity of your artwork, you should be fine with the slower 1280 and the 4Gb of memory. If you want to create higher resolution artworks, then the 2-4Gb of memory will come in really handy and the 1380 will handle larger size brushes a bit better. The 90Hz screen refresh makes everything a bit more fluid. For me totally worth the bit of extra investment.

For me the first thing to set Up on everything these days is DARK MODE, everything. I can not stand WHITE PAGES, apps, programs, browsers, websites, windows anything WHITE is so annoying now it makes me sick. After using DARK MODE more and more across everything that I can, I have become absolutely allergic to White on the screen. Now I feel my eyes burn and kind of get a mild headache by staring at predominantly white stuff, so it was very hard to watch this video, and it has become an issue to me to watch many youtubers lately that are still using white on their devices and web pages. A white canvas to draw in an app that has a dark mode interface is obviously ok, I can just dim the screen a little bit if necessary, but all the rest must be DARK MODE. I can not understand how it took so long for this to be a thing and how I was able to use computers when everything was white. Sadly there still many web pages, some programs and apps that don't implement the DAR MODE option. Love your videos by the way.

Another useful video. Thanks. Will you be doing another look at the S6 Lite 2024 model? But I'm honestly leaning towards the same Samsung tablet you're using in this video. I'm still using the S7 FE you recommended but it may be time to move up to the S9. Since there isn't very much tech news, I'll be looking forward to your updated Android drawing app list. 😁😁 Last, but not least, I've been experimenting with drawing on the Kindle Scribe. I know it's not an "art application" but it's really good for straight-ahead sketching without all the bells and whistles of the art apps. It's really like drawing on paper with a pencil, no layers, no pinch to zoom, etc. just drawing.

For the love of all that is holy, processing power, speed and smoothness, turn off the RAMplus! You dont need extra SLOW hard drive ram unless your running a million applications at once! Here are some cons with it on by default: - bogs down boot time and processor speed - wear and tear your drive reducing its life span - gets used even if there is enough physical ram slowing system down and consuming more battery Just turn it off, the FE versions will be a bit smoother, and youll get to use all of your power in the flagship versions!
