Galaxy Tab S9/S9+/S9 Ultra - First Things To Do!

[@TechnicallyAlex]

Did you pick up the new S9, S9+ or S9 Ultra? Let me know if you have any cool tips and tricks that I didn't mention!

[@Friday7]

S9 Plus personally. Unless you have a regular type book cover: Screen protector! I can't stress enough how much stress this will take away. (Untill the definitive Tab S9 series protectors are available, most of the previous gen. ones will fit too.) And an extra tip, the S Pen, while it only charges on the back, can also be magnetically attached to the top side of the tablet for convenience.

[@Springflut_]

S9 one, could be bigger but those 1,7 Inches or whatever arent worth the 200$.. but 11 are also just fine and im totally happy

[@TheBarracuda180]

S9+ is the sweet spot not too big and not small. Luckily in my country it was on sale and only around 50 dollars difference between s9 and the plus (as i was looking for 12gb ram) so definitely chose the plus.

[@METAL4K-UK]

Thanks for the upload Alex. S9 for me. Though I like to watch movies at bedtime I also read pdfs with the tablet on my lap. I was thinking the + may be a tad too big for this. I could have settled for the FE but I really wanted the omeled display.

[@sakura-valley]

I'm a bit late to the party but I got myself the Ultra, since I'll be using it for school and when traveling as a laptop and not really a tablet. I also got myself a portable second screen, dex mode is a beast after all

[@MarvaGriffin]

[@t0stbrot]

Honestly i wouldn't disable or speed up any animation or transparency and stuff. It makes the Tablet feel not smooth

[@husarz]

Not on Ta S9. Same with S23. S22 was horrible, although Tab S8 workshop quite wellness without animations.

[@DrMoorehen]

i agree, if this is like my s8 ultra...which it is and more! IT DOESN'T NEED SPEEDING UP😮

[@gretavanfleat]

ive had it on my s22 ultra for over a year now and switching it back to normal 1x makes the phone feel so much slower

I got the tab S9 FE plus.....love it!

[@iNanieke]

I went from th Galaxy tab s3 9.7 to the tab s9 fe (8gb ram) and its amazing!! Thank you for these tips, I used many of them!

[@jewelbriard5444]

Many of the Amazon cases made for s8-ultra will fit the s9-ultra. I ordered a Fintie case which was made for s8-ultra. They had updated the product page in photos to say it would fit s9-ultra, but the title does not mention the s9 ultra. The case arrived today and fits great. It is a multiple angle portfolio case with pocket . There is a flip over lap which shields the pen from falling out. I bought the navy with black trim. Has visible stitching which I love.

[@sskhussaini]

The s8u case will fit the s9u, but the camera cutouts don't match up, or the speaker cutouts as well. Minor compatibility issues.

Thank you!

[@dennisandsusanmaccallum3884]

Thank you so much! I just got the Galaxy s9+ yesterday. I've never had a Samsung, just a very old generic Android. I was confused trying to learn even the basics of what this can do! I had no idea which video to start with and I'm so glad I chose yours! I subscribed and will watch your videos from now on!

[@raysnvc]

I really appreciate this video, my Tab S9 feels snappier, customized and overall better now.

[@safinamarishka]

Watching with s9+ ,loving it so far

[@avirupdutta5048]

Hy on my s9+ i disabled to use my spen to be used to perform gestures on screen, like back swipe or under swipe for home screen. I can do them by fingers but my spen isn't doing that. Do u know which setting to change?

[@hezvandermeij]

Just went from the Tab s6 lite (2020, android 13) to the S9 FE+ Always try to find one of these vids just to see what changed between those 3-4 yrs that I didn't have as options on the s6. Thanks!

[@boblabla6932]

Thank you sir. Just got my new Galaxy Tab 9 and it is a HUGE difference from my A 10.5 Your video helped me out a lot. Can't wait to get used to using this device in my everyday life

[@ytteo807]

Thank you for the video! Very useful tips and customisation suggestions. Now, my new Tab S9+ seems to operate much better and feels more like my own!❤

This is like the third time in watching this while I wait for my S9U to arrive hahaha

[@AnkitRijal]

[@Pho909]

Wow. Great video. Got mine a few days ago. Your tutorial has helped alot.😊

[@BNerdy]

These tips were so helpful. Thank you so much

[@myzw12]

Do you think its important to get a screen protector on these tablets? I hear a lot of people don't really use them anymore

[@TheEnchantedDragun288]

I just got mine few days ago. I got a screen protector because I don't want to take any chances since this is super duper expensive toy. Samsung LCD screens cost not hundreds but thousands to replace if the warranty is gone.

[@EifDan]

I only use glass screen protectors on my phone as it is usually jingling in my pocket along with coins/what ever else is in there. I don't ever feel the need to use one on a tablet as it is handled with more care. The modern glass used on these tablets is robust enough to survive normal daily use and whilst traveling mine is placed inside a tablet sleeve. You could argue that it is an expensive toy, however, a screen protector will lessen the quality of the beautiful screen and most likely cause the fingerprint print sensor, s pen and touch sensitivity to be temperamental. I'd rather have the full qualitity experience without a screen protector. If it drops on the floor it will most likely crack with a screen protector on anyway 🤷🏽

[@christiangomez2200]

I Opted out and placed a Liquid Screen protector most of the screen protector i used messed with the biometric scanner. Plus is scratch RESILIENCY goes crazy up.

[@jenniferharper2916]

This video is amazing, thank you! I've never would've thought of all these ways I can personalize my tablet.

[@rayyan8910]

One thing I noticed was that you were not touching the screen while writing with the s-pen. Whenever you are writing with s-pen, the hand touches are disabled, so now you don't have to worry about accidental touches and not do the awkward writing posture. Just rest your hand normally like you're writing on a real notepad

[@danh6224]

Was wondering about that, Thx

[@rawcircoking]

Is the flashlight only for the ultra

[@nitinkale560]

Very helpful video. The s pen left behind feature is not available on S9FE because the s pen is passive i. e. It does not need charging.

[@iNanieke]

Thank you for this! I was wondering why I didn't get the charging notification when I put my s pen into place 😂

[@EazyP_Z]

It has to be the Bluetooth pen. Yeah I stumbled on this a little bit as well, because I really wanted that feature!

[@bob_gM9]

I also spent like 10minutes wandering around in the settings

[@noneofmybusiness9895]

I just got the S9 and the only part of your tutorial that didn't work was the lock screen memos. When I pull my pen off of the back of the tablet, the screen doesn't stay black and allow me to write. It immediately turns on and has my background picture, so I can't write anything. What am I missing?

[@alexbelikov6660]

Thank you! There is a lot of useful stuff here. All these little things combined make up a significant quality of life improvement.

[@MyFavoriteVegan]

I like Bixby. 😊 If only I could actually afford one of these. Awesome video, man.

[@kameya87]

Same. I like Bixby routines.

[@fattony9227]

Bixby is also available on older tablets.

[@Tafa-Mapa]

I feel Bixby is underrated due to almost all reviewers dismissing it due to ignorance.

[@SamAbdelHamid]

Good tips and all, but also, first things first, you gotta install Good Lock and its modules so that you get to enjoy the tablet at its full capabilities. 😉

[@scottwaterman8837]

Are you sure Goodlock works on tab s9 ultra?. Thought it was designed for phones.

[@SamAbdelHamid]

@@scottwaterman8837 it does, and it makes your experience way more convenient. Especially the One Handed Operations module...

[@ddlonglegs]

Downside of swipe vs buttons is the input lag. I still use swipe anyways, but the buttons are objectively far more snappy

[@ljacobs357]

I prefer the buttons.

[@BlackSlimShady]

Lag or delay? Like the tablet actually starts to lag, and slow down/stutter? (I don't see how that would happen, especially with the power of the device). Or the delay - the more time that is taken up because of the animations played when you swipe the application away? (I can understand that)

[@BykerSoosh]

The biggest downside to buttons, in my opinion, is that you can't use the touch/hold function to hide or show the Taskbar. I believe buttons also disables a few other useful gestures. I love the buttons and greatly prefer it over swipe, but when I'm using my S pen and using multiple apps on my Z Fold or on my Tab 9, I need to be able to hide & show the Taskbar.

[@wass195]

[@hezvandermeij]

​@@StudentOfKnowldge unless it has Samsung on the side and is the 45w (or 25w, but that's slower), it won't be the official

[@di34nn45]

Does this also apply to FE?

[@TheBluealan2000]

In my experience most of the tips are the same other than the choice between refresh. On the FE you get 60hz or 90hz.

Brilliant video, thank you so much.

Hi Alex, do you know if it possible to have "always on" on the Galaxy S9 - maybe through developer mode? I need the tablet in a restaurant and it is not so smart if it turns black in the middle of service :)
