Currently choosing a tablet and watching a lot of reviews of them. Unfortunately, most reviews are more than useless. But this one is top tier. Good job and thanks.
I also see that you answering to comments, so i have a question. Do you know by any chance, do android version of clip studio supports import of the Photoshop brushes?
I'm in the same boat....trying to buy my 11 year old niece a tablet or graphics tablet to get her into art, but it's been difficult finding what is the best item for art kn the $300 price range
You're the first reviewer to mention pressure levels and how it impacts brush workflow. Since I'm used to Huion 22 plus on my pc with 8k pressure levels I'm afraid I'll be annoyed by the S pen 4k. Would really like you to try XP Pen magic drawing pad (16k pressure levels) since your brush workflow is the most similar to mine I could find for reviewers.
pressure level is not really what affects that. I also think this is one of the few reviewers that talks about that, it's called IAF (initial activation force), it's what most impacts the feel of the pen when you are drawing, it's the force you need to apply on the screen for it to detect the first level of pressure of the pen (so pressure levels are useless if the IAF is not calibrated well) 4k is more than enough, tablet companies keep adding more and more pressure levels and marketing it as the game changing feature but it's just buzzwords. The IAF is much more important. You can test if a pen has a good IAF by holding the pencil by the top end, place the tip on the screen and let the pen's own weight do the drawing by sliding it over the screen, if it doesn't leave a mark it's not well calibrated and you will have a hard time doing gesture and lighter sketching, and it will also affect tilt since when you tilt the pen you're barely applying any force to it. sorry for the long reply, I hope you find a good tablet for you.
@@Drelay Haven't tried Huion yet. I did a brief comparison between iPad, S9 Tablet's S-pen and XP-PEN performance here: You can see all the devices I've already used here: ua-cam.com/video/xgAw_LNgnbA/v-deo.htmlsi=klvnmkNwkjurGNrV
Hey there, I don't know if anyone else already said this but, to import your brushes in the tab s9, you have to download them and then add them to CSP from your files browser. Otherwise directly from drive it will say "unsupported file"
To be honest i really want to get this for my birthday in may since it comes with the pen i want to get it and with a glove it will be my first digital drawing device 🎉
With android, especially with one as powerful as the Tab s9, you can just emulate the operator system Windows and just use the full version of Photoshop or blender if you don't like the drawing and sculpting programs available on android
@@YurushiiGamingi have the the tab s7 got ot for sub 200€ for art and note taking it runs flawlessly even games do i use it for movies and light gaming but i saw nomad and sculp+ and got them i use sculp+ because for ne its a simpler smaller more minimalistic design but i tried both and theh work fine even with the grab or move tool that may cause some struggle and lag on the tab s7 it doesn't and runs smoothly from my small experience. Tab s7 has the 865+ unless ur doing x86 emulation all apps will certainly run with no problem tho I haven't tested stuff like genshin impact or idk im sure they also run maybe not at full ultra settings but one thing is that the tab s7 is 3y unless someone ports oneui 6 u won't get jt 5.1.1 is as far as it goes but also it's full of features just not the new ui no 5g i have a sim and a 256 gb sd card in it woth ram plus so a total of 12 gb of ram i would recommend u go for the 8 unless u don't care about it as oneui is still packed to the brim with features i recently been using dex because my laptop overheas in 36°c and that's also been great all my hope is that someone ports the oneui 6 rom and then its a great tablet
Thanks for the video! As for the brush import to CSP: I've used CSP Cloud function to import my brushes from PC to my S9 fe - had to look for some help on reddit, but it worked smoothly
Thank you for making this! I have S9Ultra. I feel tablet is capable of running heavy apps. But unfortunately some of the apps are not optimized for the tablet. Developers always give priority to ipad apps. I am yet to find a good app that has stable tilt pencil support on android.
I'm planning on picking up drawing again even if the last time I draw was 2011 and I'm thinking of the S9. I can barely use Apple products, my sister has an ipad pro gen 4 (maybe) and iphone 13 pro max and iphone pro 14 5G(again maybe, dont really know the models, just matching the prices to guess the type). I could never get into iOS. I've been looking at reviews and it seems like S9 is a good product to work (and relearn drawing) with since I can't exactly drag my PC around. Addition : Nothing, I think, about iOS or MacOS is intuitive. That has been my problem with Apple (that and how overpriced it is despite offering pretty much the same functionality and how closed the ecosystem is).
@@jingmatinongI heard Infinite Painter is good. Honestly at this point it probably won't matter what I pick because I'll be starting from scratch again, it'll be a new experience for almost-40 year old me. Haha
CSP and Procreate are both great, I use both for professional work. The only caveat is you can’t have Procreate on Android. So I recommend mostly CSP and Infinite Painter for alternatives.
Thank you for this video! Been looking for a professional artist review on the s9 instead of the bigger ones 😊 Am pretty much set in getting a tab s9 to get back to drawing since it fits my budget more 😅 (20% student discount here and it comes with the pen) so now I know what to expect. Also does the tablet heat up a lot when you're drawing & doing the 3D sculpting?
The tablet may heat up a bit. Don't worry too much which tablet to use. What's important is drawing and practicing daily. I started with a Wacom Intuos so today's generation is lucky to have portable tablets like the S9 for drawing directly on the screen.
Hey, great video, the thing is I also got an s9 but I feel that the colors on the screen are much "bluer" than my iPhone, or maybe a bit oversaturated. Have you encountered the same thing or it's just a me problem. Is there any way to color-calibrate my tablet?
It's the same case for me, colors are more saturated. For example, when I use the S9's camera to take reference photos for painting, I usually just adjust the colors on my Mac or iPad later.
@@eyeghelemebright6938 Display modes are about how "colors are displayed" on screen. Changing the Display modes is not the same as Color Calibration. Color calibration means colors are matched consistently whether in file export or in colored print outputs, which is important in professional work.
You seem to be genuine creator so one doubt i have been searching since long is can we use Blender in S9, S9 Ultra, S7? As i want to develope some skills thats why
Hello! thank you for the review for this tab but i still have several questions for the performance 1. While you using CSP, do you feel any lags during drawing? also what is the highest setting for the canvas that you ever used before its getting laggy. (Also I heard Ipad maximum DPI is 300, I wonder if samsung is limiting its DPI as well) 2. I asked someone who used samsung s9 fe said that he used around 3k canvas with 300 DPI and able to reach 20 layers with no lags (without using any effects). Considering s9 fe and s9 chipset is different and the comparison during gaming is pretty noticeable, I wonder how many layers that you can use before you getting notification that the memory is increasing and how much of a difference between the layers
I typically use 10 layers max while I’m working for better layer management but I think the Tab S9 could handle 20 layers depending on the canvas resolution. The exact resolution at which lag starts can vary based on the complexity of the artwork and the number of layers. You can probably expect smooth performance up to 6000 x 4000 pixels with moderate to high layer counts.
Haven't tried that one yet- but if the tab s9 was able to multi-task between nomad sculpt and clip studio, I reckon it should work fine. Again that depends on file complexity.
@@jingmatinong thanks for the answer! Also sorry for the repeated messages, in my laptop it doesnt show that my message is sent yet so i just sending the message again without realizing that it might be a bug
Thanks for watching! For digital brushes and mentorships click here: jingmatinong.gumroad.com/ OR www.artstation.com/jingmatinong What do you think of the S9’s art performance and stylus?
One more thing: There are also several alternative pens available that you can use on the S9, like the Staedler pen, for example, or the wacom one pen and more. And if you also have a galaxy pen enabled phone like I have (s23 ultra) , you can use the same pens on the phone as well. It works cross hardware platform .
Im wanting to get a new tablet, from my old old galaxy tab 4, but it's a want not a need, it's hard to know what to do as i don't want to spend much, but the tab s6 is a bit small. I do have a screenless drawing tablet for my PC but this would nice too, to take it out and about, use for other things too. Have you tried the android version of procreate HiPaint it used to be by Huion but i guess its kinda not now
@@zayn7534 it depends on what type of art you like to create. For my professional work, I paint for long hours and the iPad is still the best tablet at this point.
Clip studio has animation features, so I reckon you can..but the stylus nib does have slight friction which may not be ideal to light and quick gestural sketches (if that’s a part of your workflow).
i bought s9 fe. They have similar sizes and i loved using clipstudio but people are saying s9 fe is small for clipstudio. I am feeling bad now :( why i didnt buy s9 fe plus...
The S9 FE is a good device for Clip Studio. Sometimes it’s not about the screen size…it’s about how will you make the most out of the product you have at hand?
The s9 shown in the video is the same size as the s9 fe, and it looks great. Personally I prefer smaller screens so 'the bigger the better' is not an objective measure when it comes to digital art. Portability and being able to use it in a comfy way is more important for me, and it could be the same for you as well, first hand experience is what matters, not online reviews😊
It really depends on what you are looking for. I just made an iPad review here comparing it to other devices too: ua-cam.com/video/xgAw_LNgnbA/v-deo.htmlsi=52cGjWqGmIWuPW0d
What color mode for the display is the best for drawing, vivid or natural? I find the natural one being very dull and even with a sort of warm tint to it, so I'd appreciate your opinion on this!
I go for Natural mode over Vivid because Vivid overdoes the colors. Choosing Natural is better in terms of color accuracy in terms of file export. If I export an artwork image using Vivid mode, the image file will look dull compared to the tablet screen's vivid mode especially if it gets printed or viewed on another device.
Heey bro, thanks for the video. I have a question actually about this tablet. Is it compatible with external drawing tools, like a Veiik 1060 connected by cable? I'm planning in buying one to take advantage of my Veiik 1060, for drawing anime style characters (i'm a total beginner). Do you still recommend it too for someone like me? Thanks in advance :)
Not yet-If you have any suggestions which products what to review let me know! 😊 right now I’m using a paperlike screen protector from a local electronics store.. been using it for 5 years with no issues.
I will use the S pen frequently for about 9 months. I am afraid that the tip of the pen needs to be changed too much? I learned from some comments that people who draw change the tip of the pen every 2 hours. Should I buy this tablet? Can you help me?
I did a quick review of Huawei Matepad 11.5 S PaperMatte. It seems really great for inking: ua-cam.com/users/shortsjsqyd_mY13I?si=J5Fz5phC4hsTqBya I also made a new review on the M4 iPad here: ua-cam.com/video/xgAw_LNgnbA/v-deo.htmlsi=ao_xurZWHb-SoUJx The S-pen does wear out if you draw a lot with it because the nib is soft. Others say the wacom one pen is better for the S9. Best way to know if you like a tablet is to go to the store itself and try it out
I've been using another spen tablet (tab s6 lite) for a few years. I was also worried about tip wearing down at first. It got dirty and not as sharp as it was, still never needed a change. I am heavy handed and I do a lot of detail lineart work. One thing to be careful about: I never used a paper like screen cover, they are harder on the nib. Since the nib is a soft material, I don't need that extra grip from paper like covers. Overall I am so happy with the performance that I am buying the S9+ today. Perhaps, if it needed that much changing for some people, their pen might've been faulty from the start?
I gotten the iPad Pro 12.9 2021 last week, and gonna get this S9 base model this week. Both used. Probably the best way to decide which to keep. I have a feeling that iPad Pro may be gone as I am just sketching for hobbyist. I may really missed Procreate tho but I still got my old Ipad Mini 5 for that lol
For beginners, it makes sense to get what fits your budget the most - like the S9 FE. Then, get really good at your skills. Once you get better, get a pricier tablet.
would you mind if i want your opinion? Now i'm using Ipad Air5 64GB but my storage is not enough and I don't use the iPad for anything except drawing because of the space. and i'm not apple eco system [ i have only one ipad ] Now i'm thinking about move on to samsung galaxy tap [ maybe S9+ or 10+ that will be coming soon ] Should i move on to the samsung galaxy tap? i'm 2D and comic artist.

I examined this tablet in the store and it cannot be compared to the iPad, the line of the pen is literally delayed while drawing, when you press too little, it reacts on the iPad but does not react at all on the Samsung, you can see this delay at exactly 5:56 seconds, you will understand
Checking it in store is the a good way to find out if a device for you. At 5:56 I was testing on the older (classic) version of Heavypaint. But now the app has been updated to V3. So there may be some changes to the responsiveness of the stylus. This is why I was testing different apps during the demo as well, to see how the tab S9 would perform on each app.
I like the Samsung pen drawing experience better than Apple Pencil. The Ipad as a complete package is better. They both fall short that it's not a computer.
I find the s-pen is better for inking while the apple pencil is better for quick sketches and rendering paintings. Both are portable and great for remote work.
@@jingmatinong lol. I know right. But thank you for this review though. I appreciate that it's coming from an artist's perspective. I initially wanted to get this tab for journaling and digital art but seeing that the pen sensitivity is not standard across apps like CSP and infinite painter is a bummer :(
The Samsung aspect ratio and dimensions is not the best for art too narrow wide screen better for basic task, gaming and watching videos/movies plus less black boarder around videos. iPad is more square dimensions is better for artists/illustrators but gaming and videos have more black boarder so sometimes cuts the content off. If your not an artist Samsung is better and for the price. Samsung wide screen and iPad more square so more space on the top and bottom so better especially for using apps with tools on the sides and in portrait mode.
@@_StarlightRose_ I’m a trying-hard wannabe artist who can’t seem to get sketches right. For now, any stylus or pen would do. I didn’t know Samsung has pen variants. Apple has no pencil crafted only for artists.
If you're talking about the rubber tips you get from samsung s pen I 100% agree that's more so for writing than getting quick smooth lines which I just ordered plastic nibs from aliexpress it works really well
I’ve used brands like Huawei, Wacom, XP-PEN, and Apple to create art. My goal was to share my experience with the S9 to help other artists who haven’t tried it. If that leads you to label someone an Apple user, maybe take a step back and reflect. Let’s keep things open-minded and respectful.
There are Digital Artists who are using other operating systems aside from Apple and are looking for a first impression of the S9. Not everyone starts with Android.
@brushimpact I don't have this particular tablet but I had an issue with Samsung customer service before, and I was not impressed, to say the least. Still, they make a damn good hardware, and the price for their gadgets are going down rather quickly opposing to Apple's.
Samsung will support tabs for 3 to 4 years, iPads work for 8 to 10 years. Samsung products are untested, mostly faulty and the after sales service is a joke. It can’t connect to a Mac as an external display and you miss out on iPad only apps. So when all these problems go away, Samsung can start dreaming about your title.

5:30 you don't had to open Play store to access downloaded apps. Just swipe from bottom of the screen up to access the apps screen
Thanks, I didn't realize it during the unboxing and first impression but after spending more time with the tablet, I figured out the apps screen.
@brushimpact its pretty intuitive and the latest OneUI is rather nice and very customizable in contrary to restrictive iOS.

@@zayn7534 it depends on what type of art you like to create. For my professional work, I paint for long hours and the iPad is still the best tablet at this point.
Cant say navigation is an issue or negative when you're just setting up the device.
Once you have it set up to your liking, that's out the window.
Fair point. I did this as a first impression video without getting a hang of the tablet much yet. It did take some time to get used to.
does anyone know if the power of this tablet would handle 2D animation programs like clip studio? for small projects?
It should be powerful enough to do that
Hi, you are very good at drawing.
Thank you!
Hi, if you like digital art. Watch my digital art work and comment.
Can i animate on it ? The only reason i would choose ipad would be procreate, and i don t know if it s worth it.
Clip studio has animation features, so I reckon you can..but the stylus nib does have slight friction which may not be ideal to light and quick gestural sketches (if that’s a part of your workflow).
i bought s9 fe. They have similar sizes and i loved using clipstudio but people are saying s9 fe is small for clipstudio. I am feeling bad now :( why i didnt buy s9 fe plus...
The S9 FE is a good device for Clip Studio. Sometimes it’s not about the screen size…it’s about how will you make the most out of the product you have at hand?
The s9 shown in the video is the same size as the s9 fe, and it looks great. Personally I prefer smaller screens so 'the bigger the better' is not an objective measure when it comes to digital art. Portability and being able to use it in a comfy way is more important for me, and it could be the same for you as well, first hand experience is what matters, not online reviews😊
I tend to prefer smaller screen sizes because they are easier to work with especially when I go to a cafe or office
Hello! This tablet does not work well with glass. Which glass would you recommend to make it work normally? ( sorry for my English)
If by glass you meant screen protector, I haven’t tried one yet.
@jingmatinong Yes!I meant screen protector. Still, thanks for answering!
My pleasure
Which is good for digital art Samsung tab or iPad ?
It really depends on what you are looking for. I just made an iPad review here comparing it to other devices too: ua-cam.com/video/xgAw_LNgnbA/v-deo.htmlsi=52cGjWqGmIWuPW0d
What color mode for the display is the best for drawing, vivid or natural? I find the natural one being very dull and even with a sort of warm tint to it, so I'd appreciate your opinion on this!
I go for Natural mode over Vivid because Vivid overdoes the colors. Choosing Natural is better in terms of color accuracy in terms of file export. If I export an artwork image using Vivid mode, the image file will look dull compared to the tablet screen's vivid mode especially if it gets printed or viewed on another device.
Heey bro, thanks for the video. I have a question actually about this tablet. Is it compatible with external drawing tools, like a Veiik 1060 connected by cable?
I'm planning in buying one to take advantage of my Veiik 1060, for drawing anime style characters (i'm a total beginner). Do you still recommend it too for someone like me? Thanks in advance :)
If you’re a beginner working on the samsung tab s9 alone is more than enough. Not sure if the S9 will support your tablet’s cable connection.
How about rendering? Is it strong enough or..?
Should be strong enough for rendering.
Hi do you have a review on the best screen protector you found?
Not yet-If you have any suggestions which products what to review let me know! 😊 right now I’m using a paperlike screen protector from a local electronics store.. been using it for 5 years with no issues.
But doesn’t paperlike protector wear out the s pen tip?
It could wear out the tip, depending on usage.
I'm thinking of buying it for Nomad Sculpt. Do you think I should buy it, do you recommend it?
best way to find out is if you try testing it first in their stores
I will use the S pen frequently for about 9 months. I am afraid that the tip of the pen needs to be changed too much?
I learned from some comments that people who draw change the tip of the pen every 2 hours. Should I buy this tablet? Can you help me?
I did a quick review of Huawei Matepad 11.5 S PaperMatte. It seems really great for inking:

I also made a new review on the M4 iPad here:
ua-cam.com/video/xgAw_LNgnbA/v-deo.htmlsi=ao_xurZWHb-SoUJx
The S-pen does wear out if you draw a lot with it because the nib is soft. Others say the wacom one pen is better for the S9. Best way to know if you like a tablet is to go to the store itself and try it out
I've been using another spen tablet (tab s6 lite) for a few years. I was also worried about tip wearing down at first. It got dirty and not as sharp as it was, still never needed a change. I am heavy handed and I do a lot of detail lineart work. One thing to be careful about: I never used a paper like screen cover, they are harder on the nib. Since the nib is a soft material, I don't need that extra grip from paper like covers. Overall I am so happy with the performance that I am buying the S9+ today.
Perhaps, if it needed that much changing for some people, their pen might've been faulty from the start?
@@mon4711 heard that the Wacom One pen works well on the S9. The nib doesn't wear out as much too.
@@jingmatinong I've been using 9 plus for more than a week now. I'm happy with the tablet and pen.
Would u rather use the iPad Pro 2021 or S9? They cost almost the Same for me and need help to Chose
I've compared the iPad Pro with some features of the S9's S-pen here: ua-cam.com/video/xgAw_LNgnbA/v-deo.htmlsi=klvnmkNwkjurGNrV
What would u?
I gotten the iPad Pro 12.9 2021 last week, and gonna get this S9 base model this week. Both used. Probably the best way to decide which to keep. I have a feeling that iPad Pro may be gone as I am just sketching for hobbyist. I may really missed Procreate tho but I still got my old Ipad Mini 5 for that lol
Which among these tablets do u think are best for the beginners s9 or s9 fe or s9 fe+ and can you please suggest the varient!?
For beginners, it makes sense to get what fits your budget the most - like the S9 FE.
Then, get really good at your skills. Once you get better, get a pricier tablet.
@@jingmatinong Thank you
@@jingmatinongCan you suggest any of the best tablets for beginners under budget?

would it work well with blender? thank you
I've only used Blender on a Mac or PC, but not on Tablets.
@@jingmatinong thank you for the reply. they use on wacom mobile pro. is it that one tablet?
The wacom mobile studio pro is more like a portable PC, and can operate more softwares than regular tablets.
Ipad air 4 or tab s9 fe for drawing and school ?
That depends what you prefer-if you’re more into writing and inking go with Tab S9. If you love to draw, paint and write..go with the iPad.
Is the pencil pressure sensitive
Yes it is
Which inc and dpi are you using usually
300 dpi for the most part if i know it's going to be a detailed render such as this piece.
XP PEN Magic Drawing Pad looks like a better option.
It depends what you want, you can use this as a tablet as well, XP Pen tablets can be hit or miss
I can recommend the XP-PEN Artist Pro 16 - I still use it today. Watch the review here: ua-cam.com/video/fKQJDkOd3Wk/v-deo.htmlsi=9t88tMY-WYD3XH1o
Nah, the S9 is better
It is expensive though
Can you try Samsung NotePaper Screen for Tab S9 tablets
hopefully in the near future! :)
Could you tell me what's the best app for this tablet?
Infinite Painter and Clip Studio Paint
I use Krita for my PC drawing tablet. Can you use Krita and Nomad Sculpt on this tablet?
I did a brief Nomad Sculpt demo near the end of the video. Didn’t try Krita on S9 yet tho.
Krita is on android
If it works on the s6 lite, which is leagues less powerful, it will work on this
So yes
Damn, I use both on my samsung s20 ultra connected to my xp pen, I'm literally watching this video because I want to get this tablet for those apps.
Welche software (app) wird beim samsung gebraucht?
I use Clip Studio and Infinite Painter mostly for my Samsung tab S9
@@jingmatinong Thank you for the information, that is very kind
You're welcome!

would you mind if i want your opinion?
Now i'm using Ipad Air5 64GB but my storage is not enough and I don't use the iPad for anything except drawing because of the space. and i'm not apple eco system [ i have only one ipad ]
Now i'm thinking about move on to samsung galaxy tap [ maybe S9+ or 10+ that will be coming soon ]
Should i move on to the samsung galaxy tap?

lol the unpacking was hard lol
Indeed the packaging could be designed better.
Is this support Adobe illustration photoshop after effect?
the S9 does not support those softwares.
@@jingmatinong even the s9 ultra ?
Pretty sure the version you want is available only for computers
@hazelnut2028 Yeah as far as I know, computer versions only
I examined this tablet in the store and it cannot be compared to the iPad, the line of the pen is literally delayed while drawing, when you press too little, it reacts on the iPad but does not react at all on the Samsung, you can see this delay at exactly 5:56 seconds, you will understand
Checking it in store is the a good way to find out if a device for you. At 5:56 I was testing on the older (classic) version of Heavypaint. But now the app has been updated to V3. So there may be some changes to the responsiveness of the stylus. This is why I was testing different apps during the demo as well, to see how the tab S9 would perform on each app.
Do you use paper matte texture tempered glass?
I did not use any paper matte texture. I just drew on the screen as it is.
@@jingmatinong thanks im currently using paper texture protector but it just wears down fast
@@alt_key946 Most welcome. Yes, they really wear down especially if you write/draw on it a lot.
How much is this tablet exactly 😅
In my country around 2,000 Dhs+
How much would that be in dollars
500 to 600 USD..depends on specifications
Wow 😳 that's a lot.
Thanks for your reply and I like your video 😊
You're welcome!
This is Fe?
Nope
No it’s not Fe
Do you need a keyboard as well?
If you like using a keyboard go for it but in my case I didn’t need it at that point.
You find your apps in the "app drawer" by pulling up from the bottom of the screen.
Thanks, someone has already pointed that out too
Nice I found your video. I guess I am going to get Tab S9. Are you a kabayan?
I use tab s9 fe and i use to my study and drawings
Nice, how is it so far?
I like the Samsung pen drawing experience better than Apple Pencil. The Ipad as a complete package is better. They both fall short that it's not a computer.
I find the s-pen is better for inking while the apple pencil is better for quick sketches and rendering paintings. Both are portable and great for remote work.
what is the name of this application?
Clip Studio Paint
Awesome review. I agree though that the iPad's interface is much more superior.
It’s interesting to see how much people care about navigation.
@@jingmatinong lol. I know right. But thank you for this review though. I appreciate that it's coming from an artist's perspective. I initially wanted to get this tab for journaling and digital art but seeing that the pen sensitivity is not standard across apps like CSP and infinite painter is a bummer :(
The s-pen has tremendous potential and if it gets developed further it could be a game-changer.
@@jingmatinongyk on android you gotta swipe up to find your apps rt......
Not have Affinity Designer.
Haven’t tried it
The Samsung aspect ratio and dimensions is not the best for art too narrow wide screen better for basic task, gaming and watching videos/movies plus less black boarder around videos. iPad is more square dimensions is better for artists/illustrators but gaming and videos have more black boarder so sometimes cuts the content off. If your not an artist Samsung is better and for the price. Samsung wide screen and iPad more square so more space on the top and bottom so better especially for using apps with tools on the sides and in portrait mode.
Word.
The Tab S9 Plus is wider than the iPad Pro 11", and the Tab S9 Ultra is wider than the iPad Pro 13" 🤷🏽♂️
My M4 iPad Pro Review:

But I like Apple pencil’s firm nib than Samsung’s soft stylus point.
Thanks for watching! Why do you prefer the apple pencil's firm nib?
There's the S-pen creator edition if you want that
@@_StarlightRose_ I’m a trying-hard wannabe artist who can’t seem to get sketches right. For now, any stylus or pen would do. I didn’t know Samsung has pen variants. Apple has no pencil crafted only for artists.
@@jingmatinong I’ve been using it for sometime.
If you're talking about the rubber tips you get from samsung s pen I 100% agree that's more so for writing than getting quick smooth lines which I just ordered plastic nibs from aliexpress it works really well
for me the S8+ is awesome, already better than ipad
Hi thanks for watching. What art app are you using and how’s the digital painting experience?
No hahaha
Swipe up from the bottom
someone addressed that too, thanks for the feedback.
You must be an apple person, because you do NOT have to go into the play store to access apps
I’ve used brands like Huawei, Wacom, XP-PEN, and Apple to create art. My goal was to share my experience with the S9 to help other artists who haven’t tried it. If that leads you to label someone an Apple user, maybe take a step back and reflect. Let’s keep things open-minded and respectful.
It's called the app drawer. This is y ppl think iPad users are stupider than Droid users.
There are Digital Artists who are using other operating systems aside from Apple and are looking for a first impression of the S9. Not everyone starts with Android.
pss.. why are you whispering?
Audio quality will be improved in the next video, stay tuned!
"And it took a month for a replacement to arrive" - well this wasn't shocking for Samsung at all 🤨
How was it from your end?
@brushimpact I don't have this particular tablet but I had an issue with Samsung customer service before, and I was not impressed, to say the least. Still, they make a damn good hardware, and the price for their gadgets are going down rather quickly opposing to Apple's.
Great review but iPad killer is a far stretch lol
Thank you for watching!
Samsung will support tabs for 3 to 4 years, iPads work for 8 to 10 years. Samsung products are untested, mostly faulty and the after sales service is a joke. It can’t connect to a Mac as an external display and you miss out on iPad only apps. So when all these problems go away, Samsung can start dreaming about your title.
Stop yapping kid
It's obvious you've never tried a high-end Samsung. So don't come lying here.
What in the drone lol
lmao
Indeed, some of the apple products I use are close to 10 years old and still works well.
Nobody buys these
There is a product for everyone depending on their needs.
You can't even believe this nonsense yourself 😂😂😂 let me guess you're in the Apple cult
