Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 Review - 1 Month Later...Worth it?

[@tamwilfred]

Strange to hear that tablets have removed the charging block now. Samsung is really pinching those nickel and dimes they are getting off of its customers.

[@phased3941]

Thing is pretty much everyone has dozens of USB Cs lying around. So in a way I get the frustration, but looking at it realistically, we don't need those chargers. It's not like iphones where they use their own charger that breaks immediately, and now when buying a new phone, your charger is broken, you dont have spares bcs they use their own design, and are forced to buy a new one. So personally, with USB C devices, I really don't see a problem with it

[@deiaruthers5326]

​​@@phased3941Agreed , I have tones of charger bases from all my the Samsung devices I've gotten from phones.Through the years .They still work with up to date Samsung phone and tablets I have now.With the fast charger base .I think Samsung caught on .Their charger bases work with all their devices.Why keep making extra if not really needed.

[@TheOnlyImp]

@@phased3941 still, I have my 65w charger for OnePlus 9. But shouldn't use it on Galaxy s9 ultra when I buy it apparently 🤷🏻‍♂️ was strongly recommend to use the original 45w charger from Samsung. And yes, we have all some laying around. But the charging specs ect, should be more universal. So that I could use whatever charger I wanted, on the tablet imo...

[@TheOnlyImp]

And they do not come cheap

[@phased3941]

@TheOnlyImp there's no reason to not use the charger. I use a 65 watt laptop charger and a 55 watt fast xiaomi charger for all my devices Edit: just turn the 85% battery cap on your device and don't charge over night. That's not a charger specific thing, but doing those 2 things will mean all your devices batteries will be fine

I have a tab s9 (12GB RAM / 256GB Storage), and after a month of use the tablet started freezing after showing a flickering line on the screen. It goes away after I turn the screen off and on again with the power button. Samsung has no fix for this.

[@SambuddhaBisi]

I just ordered one and sad to know of this now. How often is it happening now (once daily/multiple times daily/few times a week)? The fact that Samsung cannot do anything about this or at least replace a faulty unit sounds criminal to me...

[@josecherena8791]

@@SambuddhaBisi It happens everyday and very often. Recently today I just tried to disable the HW Overlays thru developer options and hasn't encounter the problem yet. I will keep you updated.

[@SambuddhaBisi]

@@josecherena8791 Hoping that they would push a software update to fix this, if it is just a software bug. I have terrible luck with electronics, so I know your pain of paying a lot of money for a product which selectively gives me pain while many people are having a great time with the same product. My first android phone was a Samsung, way back in 2007. After going through terrible lag issues after a year of usage, I steered clear of that brand for a long long time (Became a Motorola person, and am still a fan of how they make phone software that stays solid and performant after a couple of years) I started hearing great things about Samsung again, and decided to take the plunge because I really need a decent tablet with a good display for graphics work and reading comics/watching shows. This model fit that bill perfectly. Will look forward to hearing from you that all is well. Cheers :)

​@@SambuddhaBisidid u face any issue ? How is the experience in performance

[@josecherena8791]

@@RealPlatoishere No problems related to performance. But it keeps freezing more than once daily and it's very frustrating.

MY fav is Ultra that 14 inchs , but is wayyyy to much f*n money for tablet , even this one is $800.....BUT i need 2 of them & gonna settle down with two of these S9...wanna wait till after XMAS & see how much gonna come down in prices, if gonna be close to Plus in price , then gonna getting that Plus instead this , will see, that Book3 is really nice one 2

[@seokjinforever]

Whats a good third party keyboard option?

[@pspgovsliszt]

Nice video man! One question. Is the back of the tab made of Armor Aluminum or just the corners?

[@MM-lj1jl]

its all aluminium, i have the tab s9.

Aluminum all around except for the glass screen

[@chrishyde1216]

Samsung have recently dropped the prices, at least here in the UK, so more tempting. One point I'd welcome anybody's thoughts on - are AMOLED displays better or worse for eyesight than LCD?

[@dan_963_]

how much in uk rn?

[@chrishyde1216]

@@dan_963_ The Tab S9 was £799 but dropped to £679.

[@dan_963_]

@@chrishyde1216 those prices are insane... here in germany its 620€ and sometimes even much less if there are discount promotions

[@horizon9792]

AMOLED is an OLED panel, it is named like that by Samsung. And AMOLED is a better version than ordinary OLED, so the answer for your question is YES. It is FAR FAR BETTER eyesight, eye pleasure, eye candy, more vivid colors, deep black than the old LCD screen.

[@Jeff.55649]

Shame they won't offer a S9 Tab Mini.

[@hashemhashem1983]

Anyone here ever changed from iPad to Samsung Galaxy Tab? How was the experience? And how much I should expect for its life cycle?

[@zhi_zhou]

IpadOs is more optimized but overall OneUi with Android are pretty solid, OneUi is better at multitasking and watching videos (Amoled display and dolby atmos are so good), the good point is that samsung give you the S pen directly in the box unlike Apple. Samsung will update the tab with 4 years of major updates and 5 years of security updates. So you can expect to keep it for like 5 years atleast.

[@hashemhashem1983]

@@zhi_zhou The thing is that I am currently still using my iPad Air 2, I had it since its original launch, so could I expect same life cycle with Samsung?

[@zhi_zhou]

@hashemhashem1983 I've switched from an iPad air 2, you can expect more from the tab s9 because this device is very powerful. Even after 5 years it will be usable without updates.

[@AgentFitz-y3u]

I got few questions about this tablet, which storage are u using because they got 8+128G base varint and 12+256 above. I wondering if 8G RAM is enough for daily use because OneUI definitely not a light system by all means. Does it support 45W charging? How is the charging speed? I know a fact if you wanna 45W charging speed u need a 5A cable and 45w brick at the same time, and the cable in the box was not rated for 5A I believe.

[@aaron_kim]

8GB 128 is plenty for me and should be enough for the upcoming one ui 6. It does support 45W fast charging. Using the same charger that I use for my phone.

[@AgentFitz-y3u]

@@aaron_kim ok thanks but I still decided to get 12gb version just to keep it longer at the service lifespan. 8 gen 2 is a great chip and should be last longer than any s tabs

Same here, and i only use it for note taking, so dissapointing

[@majgachaYT]

what is the exact size of samsung galaxy tab S9? does it have sim slot?

[@MrFas__]

It's 11inches in terms of screen size. No slim slot though, although it does have antenna lines meaning it is capable of using a SIM for network connectivity. Apparently some other regions where the S9 is sold may have a sim slot.

[@starfoggs]

Do you still have those protective stickers on it? Felt like removing them took me more time than setting up the Tab S9 😂

[@RK-um9tu]

Why did you talk about battery between S9 and MB without mentioning: 1. level of screen brightness 2. battery saver on/off 3. number of apps running in background 4. level of sound 5. refresh rate used (13 inch MBs don't have 120 hz refresh rate) 6. type of game played (and frame rates) 7. difference in battery size 8. if you adjusted for difference in battery size 9. actually battery run times on the same app (with equal settings) Finally, who plays games on a MB & if you don't want to compare a tablet with a laptop then don't, problem solved
