Samsung Galaxy Tab A9+ RAM: 4GB vs 8GB Compared

[@AndroidDigest]

I've been seeing a ton of great sales lately, you can check them out below: Galaxy Tab A9+ 64GB 4GB RAM ► Samsung: howl.me/clGoW8UpEo8 ► Best Buy: howl.me/clGoYVzpBUM ► Amazon: amzn.to/42Qs4uY Galaxy Tab A9+ 128GB 8GB RAM ► Samsung: howl.me/clGoXoWJdpi ► Best Buy: howl.me/clGoYh7TVRp ► Amazon: amzn.to/3SNTcpN These are affiliate links, but using them helps me a ton, remember, I'm a smaller channel, it means the world! I pay for almost every device I review, and paid for the A9+ with my own money.

I have the A9 Plus with 8GB RAM and 128GB storage. I really like it! Also, I enjoy your reviews, it's like getting tech advice from a knowledgeable friend. I like that you review budget and mid range devices bc it's not always best to buy flagship ones. Keep up the good work!

@@lggr2261 Hi dose the Samsung A9 plus use Ram Plus l mean does it use memory from your internal storage to free up room and use that storage space as ram from your phone I seen it on one of the videos on KZbin that it does I’m thinking of getting a Samsung A9 plus tablet

[@NessunoNessuno-j8i]

Have you experienced any issue with multitasking?

[@2centscommon]

I just got the 8g model & I got it to specifically play Asphalt Unite (formerly Asphalt 9), which was featured in the video. It is running the game much better & more smoothly than my laptop, which has an i5 processor, 8g ram, 256 SSD & an integrated GPU. With my laptop, I have to run the game on the "very low" graphics setting & it looks horrible & runs very choppy. With the A9+, the game looks great & I can run it on the highest graphics settings for Android devices. I love this tablet & would recommend it all day long over the 4g model because it's only slightly more expensive & totally worth that cost. It will stay relevant & work well for a longer period of time. In the near future, having only 4g of ram will not be enough even for normal everyday usage. Apps are constantly updating & requiring more processing power & ram. So, if you have the option to go for 8g, it's totally worth it.

[@Flavor88]

Hey I have the same tab. Have you updated to the latest software, UI 6.1? I feel like after I updated my tabled became sluggish. I was curious to know your experience. Thnx

[@AndroidDigest]

Thanks for sharing your experience!

[@Dbusdriver71]

I just purchased the TabA9 plus 5G that has 64G hard drive and 4G Ram Memory. As I only do no more than 2 things with it it really is perfectly fine. I still had the very old Tab A from over 8 years ago which also worked perfectly fine. With the 'trade in' I paid less than 100 dollars for this upgrade. I'm very satisfied with the A9 plus. More Ram Memory would have made little difference. This one is also a winner.

What I like about the A9+ is the entertainment value it offers for the price. I am a mainstream gamer of sorts but not on a tablet... But what this tablet does offer is still very huge. I can still run my Emulators NES, SNES and N64. My Bluetooth Xbox controller works just fine. But mostly I use this tablet for Content. KZbin, Netflix... etc. Still a great tablet for someone on the road a lot. I have the 8GB Ram and 128 Storage with a 512GB SD card for movies and more.

[@AndroidDigest]

I personally won't. Because I have no need for 5G. I literally press one button, turning on my mobile hotspot on my phone, and I can get my tablet instantly connected. So I don't really see it importance for a 5G model, that just means I have to pay more money for the tablet to work on the internet

[@KingC89]

The charging issue seems common with Samsungs. I had the Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 years ago and it lasted about a year and a half before it completely stopped charging. That was so frustrating. I have the A9+ arriving soon today so hopefully this one lasts since it's USB C charging.

[@REXae86]

@@wizzgamergood luck

[@Mighty_Mik3]

You've forgot to mention that Galaxy Tab A9+ like many other Samsung devices from 2022 or even earlier they have an extra function in Settings called RAMplus when you can add max 8GB extra virtual RAM memory by decreasing Flash memory capacity and that works great becuase I use it on my phone I know 64GB flash is not much in 4GB model but it as a MicroSD slot so that problem can be also solved easily

[@AndroidDigest]

From my experience, just being honest, RAM Plus is a gimmick. I've heard some people even suggest it's even making devices slower. I haven't seen any noticeable improvements with it personally so that's why I don't mention it. Virtual RAM is slower than physical RAM. So it may store more apps in memory but it can still slow down your device. Android police suggests this too www.androidpolice.com/samsung-ram-plus-phone-how-to-disable/

[@PNWLiving1725]

I got the 4gb, and returned it. Because I notice while tapping on letters it was not as fast as I wanted it. Its on sale now, and is a 40 dollar difference for 4gb more. Enough to want to pay for that speed

Great video! I got the 8 gig model on Amazon for 219 overnight shipping and 5 payments of 44.00 month . I think I will need the extra ram 😊

[@AndroidDigest]

Enjoy it!

[@UnfilteredHues]

Easy answer as far as 4GB of ram being a non-issue, just don't have a bunch of apps running in the background at the same time. I don't see why that's super essential for most people in the age of smartphones, tablets, and computers that are interconnected to phones so you can get your notifications there with Link to Windows. If I wanna multitask I will have one program open on my tablet, one program open on my phone, one window open on my left monitor, and one window open on my right monitor. I don't need 7 things running on my 4G of ram tablet. There's no reason why anyone 'needs' 8GB of ram, just don't be lazy and close out apps you aren't using lol. I don't think most people hold onto a tablet for more than a couple of years before they upgrade so I'm not concerned about 'future proofing'. I got the 5G 4GB ram / 64Gb model coming in Graphite from T-Mobile soon. Can't wait to throw tempered glass and a case on it and start customizing it! I'm coming from the Galaxy Tab S6 Lite

[@AndroidDigest]

Yeah this is at least a little bit of an upgrade from that tablet. Hope you enjoy it!

[@Comfy_Bed]

Now you need to have 3 devices running when you could have one? A tablet is a device for people who want a bigger screen for media or productivity but don't want something as bulky as a laptop. The 8gb version is not much more than the 4gb in price but it lets you get to bring out much more of the tablet capabilities.

[@skrichter]

It has a dex support so basically it becomes the laptop kind of in that case go for 8gb model it will be much much smoother and more productive with dex also 128 gb storage will be helpful 64 gb is less also you can gi to developer option and in that you can select install apps on sd card .with this it becomes your laptop specifically for those who work on documents and emails.

[@AndroidDigest]

I agree. The extra ram helps

[@elliotfisch9537]

Am considering the 4Gb A9+ and trying to take your review into account. I don't expect to use more than 2-3 open apps at a time (and seldom that many!), don't expect to play any high-end games, but will mostly stream videos and use my browser for email and articles. So my questions is--do browser tabs count as much as separate apps re memory? Because I often have more than 2-3 tabs open at the same time. Thanks!

[@AndroidDigest]

I honestly think you would be fine with the 4 gb. If somehow you have issues with it, you could always return it and get the 8 gb. Whether it's amazon, samsung, best buy, they all have good return policies and they won't charge restocking fees. But feel free to check the links in the description and pick the right one for you. But I would definitely recommend the 4 GB model for you. You could have plenty of browser tabs open and not have issues depending on what's on those tabs

[@sparky6757]

I respect the heck out of the A9+ 128/8gb. About 200 bucks gets you a great tablet for basic tablet things, and best I can tell, it does them well enough that you really don't need any more. When Apple's cheapest tablet (available new today) is $30 more for a model with 64/3gb, on a smaller screen, no expandable memory, it makes it that much more impressive Samsung can offer you these specs for this price. Not that Apple's iPad 9 is a rip off or anything, its chip is twice as fast - but for the sorts of things I'd be doing on a tablet without a keyboard or stylus, the A9+ chip seems plenty. That said, I don't think it's for me. While I don't use the S Pen on my phone often, I like having the option. I also would like a larger screen, which the A series doesn't offer. I'm planning to get the S9+ FE soon, since it's available refurbished for $380. An extra $150 for a stylus, larger screen, better chip/speakers/display, and IP68? Based on Apple math we know the stylus is $130, so the display/chip/speaker improvements and IP68 must be a $20 upgrade - I'd be silly not to.

[@AndroidDigest]

I'm happy with this comment. I want people to find the Right devices for them. And it sounds like you found exactly what you need. Like you, I normally want just a little more than the A9 plus even though it's pretty much enough for everyone. That brings you up to the Fe series, and at that point it's just about screen size. So it sounds like you are on the right track to get exactly what you need. And that's a super good Price refurbished. I got one from Best Buy for like 375 open box and that's when it was on sale for $500 new.

[@angelonunziolombardi]

Great video friend, I wanted to ask you a question, in the version with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of ROM, is it possible to expand the memory with a micro SD? Also, is samsung dex usable with these specs? Thanks in advance for answering these two questions.

[@AndroidDigest]

Yes, Samsung Dex is usable. You can expand to the storage, not the ram. The ram, it will allow you technically in the settings to use virtual ram, which uses your storage. I believe to help your ram but it doesn't really do much. The bottom line is, yes, you can add an SD card, but you can't install everything on the SD card. Movies on Netflix that you might download, those might be things that you can put on the SD card. Or songs from Spotify, most apps will allow you, if you download things, to specify the location, so the SD card is mainly going to help you if you install a bunch of media like that

[@jakehickman_]

It's more than good enough for just watching KZbin videos. I wouldn't worry about what other people are saying. RAM only involves multitasking and opening up a bunch of applications at the same time. If you're really just going to KZbin, you're not going to fill up your RAM just watching KZbin, and no software, even one or two years down the line should change that

[@lincolnliking]

Would you get the Tab A9 plus or the S7 FE?

[@AndroidDigest]

That's a tough call. And I really think it depends on what you value. Remember the s7fe is the bigger device. And that will mean a lot to some people. It also comes with an spen. But I believe it's all out of Android updates. And the tab a9 plus I believe is going to have two more updates and 4 years of security updates. I would say they're pretty close in speed. The screen quality might be a little better on the s7fe but the refresh rate is better on the a9 Plus. It's a really close call honestly. I tend personally to care a lot about software updates so I would probably go with the a9 Plus. But I can understand someone caring a little bit less about that and preferring the bigger device with the stylus. I did all of this with voice texting. So if anything came out bad, my bad

Honestly, it's hard to say. I haven't done extensive testing with capcut on longer videos. And it also depends on if you're editing 1080P videos or 4K. If it was 1080p videos, I would think you would be okay, assuming you're just cutting it down and not adding footage on top of it. But I can't guarantee that.

I just Ordered the 8gb Ram one. Because I want to use this to dedicate and watch all The different podcasts and videos I watch And 4 GB Ram may be good for a child but definitely not for me LO. L. It is a very good price for 8 GB of Ram. And 128 of storage.

[@AndroidDigest]

Nothing wrong with getting that extra ram. Hope you enjoy it

[@marcomarco6955]

So this tablet with 8GB Ram is good for occasional gaming and movies?

[@AndroidDigest]

Well gaming needs a few things, processing power, gpu power, and ram. The extra ram won't change the other stuff. But it is an important factor and it will help. So it's nice to have. It's still going to play games on lower settings but it should be smoother overall

I did the same thing yesterday! Funny thing is i can finally get rid of the tab 4 i have! haha

Great deal

[@ellen1jw]

So would the 4GB good enough for kids to game on? Looking to replace older fire tablets, but don't want to get something that will be slow within a year.

[@AndroidDigest]

To be honest I think all tablets are going to be a little slower after a year. The 8 GB of RAM will help if your little worried about it. But I would always recommend just doing a little bit of a factory reset after a year and starting things over. Ram won't really affect if something is slow a year from now or not. But it can help future proof things a little bit.

[@ellen1jw]

@@AndroidDigest Thanks for the quick reply. I have a feeling I already know the answer but the kids are currently using the kids fire 8 2020 model and play roblox and marvel strike force. Even the 4gb version here should be a big upgrade for them?

[@rialbbe]

I hope the apps are okay that display ratio it's either too big (app display) in a tablet mode and vertical - horizontal issue during landscape mode or desktop mode that I've experience in Samsung Dex desktop environment experience in Samsung Tab S8 device. This lead to the videos and pictures that are too big to view that sometimes you couldn't see the play button in the middle of the video or either the bottom of the reel video or picture. This is what I experience in facebook apps, web browser apps, reddit app, instagram, threads and so on.

[@AndroidDigest]

You can go to the advanced lab settings and you can play around with each app. To make sure it works in landscape mode, but you could also put that you just wanted to work in the normal app ratio rather than the full screen,. There are a few different settings you have there, but it's better than other tablets like the OnePlus pad, a tablet like that just automatically throws those apps into portrait mode

[@rialbbe]

@@AndroidDigest okay...I didn't know about that they have advance lab settings which is supposed to be in just a settings. It's getting confusing and complicated nowadays compare to Tab S6 series. Anyways, thanks for the info. I'll do check it out. Thanks!

[@NessunoNessuno-j8i]

I don't trust your opinion. How can I believe that you are objective if there are purchase links for the tablet in the video description? For example, when you discussed the 4GB version, you said several times that it's a fast, responsive model. The only flaw is that it can't handle many open applications, suggesting that closing applications is sufficient. However, other KZbinrs have explained how the tablet becomes laggy and annoying to use as soon as you do some simple multitasking.

[@Lesmaciasbowen]

To edit videos in Capcut, which one is better, 4 or 8?

[@AndroidDigest]

8 is better then 4 for sure. So the 1w8GB of storage and 8GB of RAM. That can help with video editing

[@andre26261095]

More Ram is always better I always go for more little Ram will not cut it

[@AndroidDigest]

Yeah extra ram is nice

[@Games_and_Tech]

I have the A8 64gb... is trash, is slow as hell these days, it is this A9+ a real improvement?

[@AndroidDigest]

Yes. Massive massive massive improvement. I haven't seen that much of a jump in one generation in a long time. I don't mean to hype it up like crazy, the truth is, the A8 was just very very bad with performance. I didn't tear it down in my review because it's still okay for some basic stuff. But it's very very slow. This is much better. The s9fe would be a huge huge upgrade for you. But if you can't swing it, the A9 plus is still a pretty massive upgrade this year. About the same screen quality, but a 90 HZ refresh rate and a much faster processor

[@Games_and_Tech]

@@AndroidDigest Thanks for the feedback!

[@2DAnimax]

can you compare S7 FE( 4GB ) and S6 lite 2022?

[@AndroidDigest]

Well I can't right now just because of a ton of videos! But I'll say the S7 FE is definitely a better tablet overall, and a tablet I'd recommend more, with that being said, it may be out of software updates (or it's close) and I'd recommend the S9 FE if you can find a good sale/open box deal through best buy.

[@2DAnimax]

@@AndroidDigest S9 FE exceed my budget ..but S7 FE 4GB not good enough for multitasking,as some people said it doesn't have enough ram memory.

[@oofnono872]

is the 4ram version good for playing roblox?

[@chriszanetti2619]

Would you say for 250 to 300 this is the best tablet for youtube movie watching and checking my cameras at home and some gaming

[@AndroidDigest]

Honestly, yes. I really would. If you find a really good sale on the S9 FE sometimes it goes on sale for $350 or so. That's a steal. But the A9+ goes on sale a lot

[@iHernandez620]

I’m thinking of switching from fire 11 to this one

[@AndroidDigest]

Yeah, it will have more capabilities being full android. But both are good for their own purposes.

[@Lyoun-xx9jw]

Does higher RAM make gaming performance stronger in terms of graphics and frame?

[@AndroidDigest]

Depending on the game it could help a little bit. It does depend on the game. It can't help a little bit. But I wouldn't think it would be that significant in most games

[@JoordezOrange]

lol the reason to go for the higher configuration, is because 4gb is shit, and 64gb storage is really a blast from the past too

[@AndroidDigest]

Well that's a blunt way to put it 😂😂 but either way, glad you're sharing

[@JoordezOrange]

@@AndroidDigest just facts haha, spend that little extra and your device is much better

[@CometFire2010]

Anything less than 6gb ram in 2024 should be a crime

[@Sython6]

I got the 4gb of ram one cause I couldent find a 8gb one on sale in UK and I dont think its worth the extra £40 when most of the time all im doing is watching videos. I say its a good upgrade from my Huawei mediapad m3 lite though, used to run good but now can only run videos smooth at 480p.

[@AndroidDigest]

Good point!

[@LordFantasthick]

They named it a9+, because they also released a smaller 8,7 inch a9

[@HitoriGnocchi]

dont underestimate the average non techy user (old people) that have pages and pages of non sense apps and open as many apps as possible without closing unused apps. these users use up all the ram like its nothing. then complain about “lag”. these kinds of users need at least 8gb of ram if not more just to catch up with user’s bad habits.

[@AndroidDigest]

It will definitely help a lot of people. To get the extra ram if they can

[@1080ilowres]

here the A9 costs $250 for 4gb ram and 64gb storage or $400 for 8gb and 128gb storage Would it be worth it to get the 8gb version?

[@AndroidDigest]

That's tough. Normally it's a $100 difference. At $150 it's tough. It would be worth it to some people. Not everyone. It's hard for me to speak for you. If you question it a lot, if you have the money, I'd recommend just doing what makes you happy but don't feel bad if you get the 4gb. It's still great

@@AndroidDigest thanks for the quick reply I found one for $325 8gb/128 combo and ordered it

I decided to go with 4gb/ 64gb bc I am using it in the classroom from time to time. Only to play educational games and research. No game playing at all

[@everythingautomotiveeta5839]

if its a side piece 4G if your trying to make it your main piece 8G just wait on a sale they to to often make them the same price

[@AndroidDigest]

I agree! Good advice

[@everythingautomotiveeta5839]

@AndroidDigest Thank you kindly! It's from experience! I bought a A9+ 8G then a S9+ 12G decided to not return the A9+ ad its so travel friendly and gets the joh done on everything. Kept the S9+ for home content with a dexnor for productivity

[@Muhammad-wq4bl]

can it increase extra Ram with SDcard ?

[@AndroidDigest]

No. While this may be able to use "virtual RAM". To be honest, I find that its pretty useless. RAM is RAM and using storage for RAM is not all that effective. Some people even find their devices are faster if they turn those features off. All that to say. I just wouldn't recommend it, even if the tablet allowed you to use SD card storage for virtual RAM

[@FubarMike]

I'm thinking of buying the tab a9+ 128GB version with my tax refund money. I currently have the A7 32GB. Would you say it's a performance improvement I would notice?

[@AndroidDigest]

Absolutely. A huge huge upgrade. Check my full review. I think it's pretty major even from the A8

[@FubarMike]

@@AndroidDigest So I ended up buying the 128Gb and so far it's amazing. My only complaint is that dex isn't as useful as I thought it was going to be. If I have a video on a tv app running and another window pops into the foreground it doesn't let the video on the background window continue to play. Other than that it's great.

[@bobo11112222]

Definitely notice lag on A9 4 or 8,. Essentially, when scrolling up down web viewing.

Yeah it depends on what your'e doing, what website you are on, things like that. But different expectations for sure depending on what you're used to
