Thank you so much for the 400+ subscribers guys!!! I am so happy to have you guys as an audience and a community because I've learned so much from you guys in the comment section and I am so glad this community is now starting to grow!!!
@@workspace-gi4pw you're right, thats actually something I have not talked about in my videos because I am mainly a PC and console gamer but thats a really good idea. Any game suggestions besides PUBG (im downloading it right now)
HAHA youre the first person to mention my PC. Thank you so much! I always wanted to do a desk setup video to showcase it but I didn’t think my pc was worth showing off
For word processing, browsing the web, watching videos, sketching, playing light resource games and other light computing tasks that can be done handheld and offloaded from laptops and PCs, a tablet would suffice. But for serious and heavy computing tasks like layered photo editing, multi-tracked video editing to high video format rendering, hundred line program compiling, etc. a tablet is no match to a full blown PC or laptop’s processor power, memory, GPU and storage read/write speeds.
Those are very niche tasks. One UI is running Linux and Winlator now, so most tasks for your average everyday consumer/student are well within capability.
Samsung gadgets is really on the next level. I just purchased the Samsung tab s9 5g variant last weekend. Now I am no longer using my other mobile phone as this tablet have functions like a phone, I can call and received sms which is amazing.
I'm still currently using my Tab S7 and not gonna upgrading for a year more. The Tab can do everything I throw at it. I can even use it as an external monitor for my laptop. It has longer battery life and a much more intuitive file managing system compared to the iPad, which I also have. The fact that it has it's own sim slot means I can work as I travel and as a powerful hotspot as well.
I agree, I love the file management system of Samsung tablets, and I find it the best to maneuver through the files. Also, that's great I mean tab s7 is still receiving security updates I think all the way to Aug 2024.
it appears that you are very much improving in your videos and thank u for listing down your equipment in the desc! you have potential :) im glad to be a part of this journey with u from the start.
Hey bro! Thanks to your very informative and detailed review I finally made my own purchase for an S9, too! Eyeing to get myself the S9 accessories like you have as well hahaha! Happy to be a part of this community. Thank you once again and may your channel grow further! :D
Thank you for taking the effort to make it work. You can rotate all apps to landscape mode, although some are stretched. But Dex allows using web pages just fine. However, I am retired, so I do not need a high-powered laptop. The Tab S9 works for me despite the limitations.
Thats awesome! These tablets are honestly starting to become just as powerful as laptops these days. I just hope that in the future there will be more app optimization!
I love your videos bro! As a 3rd year medtech student, I definitely agree with you in all aspects. I'm stuck between Ipad pro 11' or Galaxy Tab S9, but thanks to this very informative video, It gave me a good reason to go for the Tab S9. I'm genuinely rooting for the success of your channel, it has an enormous potential of growth. Thanks again for helping me/us pick the right tech bro!
Question: How about the limitations you encountered in using MS Office in your tablet esp. with the use of office apps like Word, Excel, and PPT. In pc, you can make very creative ppt presentations because it has lots of effects available.
Hi! majority of the limits I faced was mainly with microsoft excel. for word and ppt I didnt really face any problems. It worked exactly how I would use it on pc. But for studying statistics and stuff a lot of the major functions like creating complicated computations I had to move to a pc. But basic excel functions were achievable on the tablet. It was rare that I needed a PC.
a lot of people say tablets arent ready to replace laptops yet. But if you’re willing to make compromise, its definitely do-able. I mean I used strictly a tablet for 2 years until now. Only bought a laptop so I can do video edits off the desk.
@@RobbySanchez8 How about macros in Excel? In Word, I only use the basic functions. My concerns are with PPT and Excel as they are very much utilized in my work. I’m thinking of buying a tablet instead of a new laptop for work.
Thank you so much for this video it was very informative and just what i needed because i will be considering replacing the tablet i have and making it my main laptop .however i do have a question. For the figures that are missing that are the heavy hitters that everyone keep complaining about why we shouldn't. Aren't we able to remote access a laptop or desktop remotely on the go that has those features that are miss ultimately gives us the full package and more. Because i have a laptop it would be just a hub at hone for remote access for the missing features .instead of getting rid of it 😕 .what are your thoughts ??? Idk if other ppl have thought of that or it just slipped their mind but i would think that would be the loop hole to have the full package free of charge
Really great video man, my current laptop's battery is shocking so I thought it'd be easier to use my Tab S9 for uni work instead. This video has answered all of my queries about whether this is possible - thanks so much :)
Thankful that UA-cam recommended your video. You have included all the details that I need in order for me to finally decide on buying a tablet. Would love to see though how you use the tab in PowerPoint presentation and also how you connect it to a printer. More videos to come. God bless and more power to your channel.🙏💪
Thank you for this very informative review. I've been researching tablets for the past couple of months as I want to replace my tired ol' MacBook air. I've had my eyes on the Tab S 9 for awhile and saw that it's on sale and will buy it tomorrow. Also, I appreciate your tips on using a third party origami style cover which I will get as well; as you said - the O.EM. covers aren't worth the money. Best wishes good fellow.
Wow sir you got such a great video sir! Seems like the tab s9 could really be a great option instead of a laptop. I love how samsung continues to create and offer some great products for consumers while continuing to innovate.
@@RobbySanchez8 Yeah bro, you are heavy user right so how is the performance snappy and fluid right. I'm a light user It feels snappy, promising processor and well optimized one ui🤩
@@workspace-gi4pw well I am not a super heavy user. but I will say I am impressed. At the start I thought I wouldn't get as much productivity compared to the ultra version but I am really loving the performance of this tablet.
@@workspace-gi4pw I actually found a 3rd party keyboard case for the tab s9. Let me know if you want me to review it because I am considering buying it just to try it out. It costs P1,500 or $26
hi! for basic stuff like making spreadsheets and basic accounting like calculations and graphs definitely! but for more advanced functions like making pareto charts I havent been able to do those.
Thanks for the detailed review. I live most of my life in a browser. Do you miss the fully featured desktop version of Firefox (screw Chrome. No more ad blockers allowed)? I want to ensure I can use extensions like bitwarden, uBlock Origin and Enhancer for UA-cam before I give up my MSFT Surface Go. Many thanks!
@@antigroundhogday Hi! Yes I did miss the full capabilities of an actual laptop. And since making this video, the tablet was able to get me through a whole year of college by itself but eventually I did get a laptop this year because of things like video editing, and running certain software that only works on full desktop browsers. So if you dont use apps like that then you should be good with just a tablet. However for extensions thats only available on actual laptops and browsers I believe and cant be used on tablet versions.
@RobbySanchez8 Thanks for your response. I absolutely adore the price point, weight and battery life of Android tablets, but these past few days I have spent far too much time trying to turn mobile browsers into fully fledged ones. Haha. As a result, I am sticking with x86 based processors so I can run extremely lightweight Linux distributions, such as Antix, for their low resource consumption and battery life. Also, it doesn't hurt that with the advent of these newer Snapdragon processors being able to run laptops, Intel and AMD have gotten smart and are now releasing more battery efficient processors that I can use down the line as well. I am a full-time nomad and when traveling by plane, the weight and volume of my gear is important! Thanks again and good luck in your future endeavors. 🤙
@@ruwebstyle ok that's better but not perfect. In the end I am going with a version of Linux that is low resource (antiX) as I feel like this will always be a cat and mouse game where I need the flexibility to stay one step ahead. I also would miss seeing my browser tabs.
very good points! You are one of the few that mentions the bezels issue. I actually had issue even with the regular tabs not just the ultra. That's because contrary to Apple, Samsung has no hand rejection... I had almost stopped using my Samsung tablets until I found an apps that creates virtual bezels. Granted you cannot interact with what is in those virtual bezels but it's still better than accidental touches
Thank you! I know it is such a petty complaint but It happened to me so frequently with the Ultra version! Glad to say that the bezel size of the tab s9 is a good enough size that it doesn't happen to me anyymore.
@@RobbySanchez8 it's not a petty complaint, it's a real issue not enough people complain about simply because they don't know it can be avoided like Apple does (I don't know if it's hardware or software). But again at least there are workarounds on Android..
@@RobbySanchez8 I am a bit skeptikal as not enough people complain about it unfortauntely... (I guess they find it normal, not knowing that this issue is adressed by iPads) and sometimes just ask for larger bezels instead
@@_Digitalguy Hopefully enough people start complaining about it haha so companies can start actually putting development into fixing this problem without their customers having to find work-arounds.
In the Philippines and probably in general, university has been awesome. Especially if you're going to study something you are passionate about, there will definitely be some stress but now that I am almost done it all seems worth it. You got 2 more years? goodluck friend! Hope uni will be everything you hoped it would be!
Lo malo que en canva cuando vas a editar un texto, siempre se abre el teclado tactil grande, ya sea que estes con el teclado o no. Es asi o ya se arreglo este fallo?
You brought up using it for presentations, may i know if presenter view in powerpoint works in zoom? Nice vid! And almost getting convinced on getting one😊
Hi! hmm so far I have only used ppt to present live while the tablet is connected to a projector and I havent presented through zoom. Ill have to experiment and try that!
I’m also a student and i really need to learn how to do it, and your video helped me a lot. Would you consider making a detailed tutorial for microsoft 365 using the tab for classes and projects?
Thank you for the video! Could you share the link of the case and the screen protector you use with the Tab S9? Thanks again, and best of luck with your school ❤
Hello! this is the link from where I got the case from shp.ee/pum7vif and the screen protector I used for my tab s9 I got it from the Samsung store where I bought my tablet!
love this! would you mind doing a video about the hdr performance in different apps? it would really help me make a decision if i should by this tab or not
Hi! maybe I can do a short on it? I currently have a handful of projects I am working on right now and great things coming to this channel in terms of reviews for other products but maybe I can give some experience in this comment? since the tab s9 has HDR10+ in my experience the screen looks really good when watching shows, I am experiencing true blacks and am really satisfied with the color accuracy even with playing colorful games like Clash of clans or when I am making posters for classes! I hope this helps!
Isn't the screen size small for note taking,I am confused between s9 and s9+ as S9 is significantly cheaper than s9+ in my country,should i go for the s9 ,will it be worth it???
Hi! Not really, I got through my whole college taking notes on the tab S9 and I had no issues taking notes at all. Actually I preferred the smaller size because it fit better on my table and was more comfortable to write on than when I had the S8 Ultra which was too big.
@@marialeonorpinheiro5373 Hi! Instead of the official keyboard slim cover. If you want a trackpad and detachable body from the keyboard then get the official keyboard over the slim version!! Hope this helps!
Hi! I cannot find the original link anymore but I found one that is basically the same thing shopee.ph/For-Samsung-Galaxy-Tab-Multi-Fold-Protective-Case-S6-Lite-10.4-inch-P620-P625-2024-A8-10.5-inch-S7-S8-S9-11-inch-S7-Plus-S7-FE-S8-Plus-S9-Plus-12.4-inch-Casing-with-Pen-Slot-i.831318755.14799875841?sp_atk=796a74f9-039e-44dd-b455-1165d6857c80&xptdk=796a74f9-039e-44dd-b455-1165d6857c80
Hi! I think as long as there is an HDMI connection then it should be possible! But I don't have access to a projector so I cant personally test it out!
Hello! As far as I know I believe there is a problem with connecting tab s9 with android auto from what I have seen on the internet. But that is a good question and I will do personal testing!
agreed, there are still some things that are needed to be optimized for tablets for them to completely replace a laptop but I think they are heading into the right direction!
Yep I did. The reason for the swap was because I have been using Samsung for many years now and I just wanted to try and experience a new ecosystem. And unlike more popular channels I can't have all these devices all the same time so I really have to transition and buy these gadgets slowly at a time! Thanks for asking, this was a good question!
@@RobbySanchez8Ooh I see, that’s definitely understandable! I am actually in the same situation as you but the opposite I use iOS devices and would like to try out the Samsung ecosystem haha!
@@Melodyixo HAHA thats awesome, it would be a really cool switch because tbh, i love the way samsung file manager is more than apples hehe but I do love the airdrop features.
I have both the Slim keyboard and the keyboard case with the trackpad. The keyboard case is very heavy and the trackpad isn't consistent. I actually prefer the Slim keyboard. It is much lighter and easier to travel with. But it does have limitations.
I can see that, the slim cover is much easier to use especially on my lap for example because it is in one piece instead of 2 pieces! I am however tired of having to swap cases so I kind of want that other case so I can remove the keyboard whenever I want!
I had both and sold the slim one, the typing experience is inferior and it generally felt like a subpar accessory compared to the book cover, also I prefer to be able to detach and use it as a stand, including with another keyboard
Hey I just got the 256gb version but to be honest internal memory isn't really an issue as these tablets allow for expandable external storage with a micro sd card! I had a 1TB sd card on mine before I switched to the iPad (i miss this feature btw)
@@RobbySanchez8 since i am planning to use the tablet to replace my laptop as well (i am tired of carrying a laptop everywhere), do you think 8gb of ram is enough? I will mostly use it to take notes, run a lot of tabs on chrome, make presentation and make documents.
@@RobbySanchez8 the s10+ is too big. I need something more portable, and s9 is still more affordable. Portability comes first for me, so i think 11 inch tablet like tab s9 is the most ideal size for me.
@@tomiwijaya3850 agreed as well 11inch is the perfect size for me. Well the tab s9 does have that expandable storage so I dont think you have anything to worry about. 1TB micro sd card is what I had on mine and i never even got it to fill up to half HAHA
Hi, my workflow doesnt involve coding but I have seen other UA-camrs coding on their Tab S9's so I would say you definitely can. Probably not to the same extent as using a dedicated pc though.
@@VikasVlogs_111 With data analytics, well when I still had the tab s9, I dont have it anymore since I am using the iPad now, but when I did have it I was able to do basic data analysis on google sheets. Nothing too complex just basic computations and analysis.
@@RobbySanchez8 okay, so want to learn the coding stuff(such as python ,R, html etc.) and academic notes are also imp. So should I then buy a 360° laptop, as S9 series' and book 3 360 will cost me same
hello! tbh in my opinion the quality visually is much better on the tab s9 I did not like the tab s8 for my own experience. If I was to get an s8 I would go for the s8+ or s8ultra
so suggest a wall charger for s9 tablet! might be with 100w charger becasue i'm thinking getting overal adaptor were you can charge everthing on one brick usefuel when you travel much@@RobbySanchez8
Most apps do great on 8gb ram and 12gb ram well it would depend on what you're going to do on the device. 12gb ram would be good in the long run but it's not necessary. Unless you plan on doing things like heavy gaming (Genshin impact type of games) or similar. Some apps may require more ram in the future
No app or game needs or can take advantage of more than 8GB, and it's probably not going to change anytime soon as developers have to take lower end devices into account. The main advantage of 12GB is to avoid reloads of apps and web pages
@@declancooper2171 I am pretty sure almost any type-c hub on the market will do for just keyboard and mouse use. I personally use a bluetooth mouse and keyboard in order to keep the tablet setup more wireless. But I still have a type c hub in order to transfer files and connect an SD card.
hello po! I got the wifi version kasi mas mura. and because I traded in my Tab s8 Ultra I only paid 15k and the keyboard came free and I got 50% off sa Galaxy buds 2 pro so additional 6k lang po.
Hi! well thank you so much for that. I noticed that too, I am still trying to be more comfortable in front of a camera so I am really trying to work on it. Thank you so much for that note I appreciate it!

@@_Digitalguy well I am glad there are work arounds. Hopefully future versions of tablets can completely address palm rejection near the bezels
@@RobbySanchez8 I am a bit skeptikal as not enough people complain about it unfortauntely... (I guess they find it normal, not knowing that this issue is adressed by iPads) and sometimes just ask for larger bezels instead
@@_Digitalguy Hopefully enough people start complaining about it haha so companies can start actually putting development into fixing this problem without their customers having to find work-arounds.
How do i use my side bottoms on my mouse while using my tab s8
how is university going and is it hard and frustrating? 2 years to universty!
In the Philippines and probably in general, university has been awesome. Especially if you're going to study something you are passionate about, there will definitely be some stress but now that I am almost done it all seems worth it. You got 2 more years? goodluck friend! Hope uni will be everything you hoped it would be!
Can you please tell what keyboard and mouse did you use with this tablet?
Lo malo que en canva cuando vas a editar un texto, siempre se abre el teclado tactil grande, ya sea que estes con el teclado o no. Es asi o ya se arreglo este fallo?
I understand how the s9 ultra is too big and bezel too thin , but price as not an issue would you keep the s9 vs s9 PLUS?
i would choose the s9
Nice review. Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much! I will!
Hey bro there's like 3 Samsung s9 right? Whatt versión do you use?
Hello any recommend s9+fe book case with keyboard?
I got track pad keyboard case inlcuded with my s9 base
You brought up using it for presentations, may i know if presenter view in powerpoint works in zoom? Nice vid! And almost getting convinced on getting one😊
Hi! hmm so far I have only used ppt to present live while the tablet is connected to a projector and I havent presented through zoom. Ill have to experiment and try that!
@@RobbySanchez8 yes please! Ill be trading my ipad for this for sure
I’m also a student and i really need to learn how to do it, and your video helped me a lot. Would you consider making a detailed tutorial for microsoft 365 using the tab for classes and projects?
@@esmecastellanos Hi! unfortunately i do not have the tab s9 anymore. I might do a video for the iPad but it should also apply for the tab s9!
@@RobbySanchez8 that would also help a lot! I have the ipad pro 11 2020 and was considering changing to the Samsung one …
@@esmecastellanos well i’ll definitely plan for a video like that! maybe a day in the life. Have a lot of backlog of video ideas right now 😅
Very helpful, thank you 😄
I just wish the keyboards would come with a light for night use.
i like this guy, such a well spoken kuya
Thank you po! 😁
Can youu make a video on galaxy tab s9 vs galaxy book 4 or 3
Hi! I would but unfortunately, galaxy book laptops aren't available in my country.
okkk.. Thankk youuu for replying
Thank you for the video!
Could you share the link of the case and the screen protector you use with the Tab S9?
Thanks again, and best of luck with your school ❤
Hello! this is the link from where I got the case from shp.ee/pum7vif
and the screen protector I used for my tab s9 I got it from the Samsung store where I bought my tablet!
Can you use lock down browser on this?
Use google colab to programing in python
Ur handsome. Stay on cam. Just got my tab s9. Love it.
well thank you! enjoy your tab s9!
love this! would you mind doing a video about the hdr performance in different apps? it would really help me make a decision if i should by this tab or not
Hi! maybe I can do a short on it? I currently have a handful of projects I am working on right now and great things coming to this channel in terms of reviews for other products but maybe I can give some experience in this comment? since the tab s9 has HDR10+ in my experience the screen looks really good when watching shows, I am experiencing true blacks and am really satisfied with the color accuracy even with playing colorful games like Clash of clans or when I am making posters for classes! I hope this helps!
@@RobbySanchez8this really helped! thanks!
@@idgaf8623 No problem!
Where did you get the case for notes taking ?
Case is in my description!
Isn't the screen size small for note taking,I am confused between s9 and s9+ as S9 is significantly cheaper than s9+ in my country,should i go for the s9 ,will it be worth it???
Hi! Not really, I got through my whole college taking notes on the tab S9 and I had no issues taking notes at all. Actually I preferred the smaller size because it fit better on my table and was more comfortable to write on than when I had the S8 Ultra which was too big.
Would you recommend this over the S9 Plus if I'm going to use split screen a lot?
Hi! If split screen is a priority then maybe the plus will be more recommended for you! The 11inch can be too small for some people.
can we run python or c++ in tab s9?
Great video! What's the link for the case? 🙏
4:44 that is NOT true (at least as far as I can see). There's a TON of features missing. They are so stripped down, it's almost laughable.
Sorry, but I dont understand. What is the keyboard that you recomend? Thank you in advace!
Hi I recommend the official keyboard cover!
@@RobbySanchez8 instead of what keyboard?
@@marialeonorpinheiro5373 Hi! Instead of the official keyboard slim cover. If you want a trackpad and detachable body from the keyboard then get the official keyboard over the slim version!! Hope this helps!
@@RobbySanchez8 thank you very much 🙏🤍
What series did you get? I wonder if the FE series would work just as fine?
I had the basic tab s9 I personally would still choose this over the FE
Nice vid. What's the magnetic case that you bought from shopee? The link is not working now. Thanks

Can i connect it to projector for ppt presentation??
Hi! I think as long as there is an HDMI connection then it should be possible! But I don't have access to a projector so I cant personally test it out!
Hi sir. Is android auto available with this base model?
Hello! As far as I know I believe there is a problem with connecting tab s9 with android auto from what I have seen on the internet. But that is a good question and I will do personal testing!
@@RobbySanchez8thank you. Will wait for your update.
I am using Tab S9Ultra and it cannot thoroughly replace a laptop, .exe files are the big problem, you can just run it on window
agreed, there are still some things that are needed to be optimized for tablets for them to completely replace a laptop but I think they are heading into the right direction!
What about the pro dude?
have you tried s9 plus on hands before buying the regular s9? I'm torn which to get.
i tried both at the store before buying but in my opinion 11inch tablets are really the most comfortable option so I went with the tab s9
looking forward to your comprehensive video about using ipad vs s9! :)@@RobbySanchez8
Did you swap this for an iPad? If so what was the reason for the swap?
Yep I did. The reason for the swap was because I have been using Samsung for many years now and I just wanted to try and experience a new ecosystem. And unlike more popular channels I can't have all these devices all the same time so I really have to transition and buy these gadgets slowly at a time! Thanks for asking, this was a good question!
@@RobbySanchez8Ooh I see, that’s definitely understandable! I am actually in the same situation as you but the opposite I use iOS devices and would like to try out the Samsung ecosystem haha!
@@Melodyixo HAHA thats awesome, it would be a really cool switch because tbh, i love the way samsung file manager is more than apples hehe but I do love the airdrop features.
Did you get that tablet with a screen protector already attached on it or not? If the latter, how much did it cost you to buy and where to avail one?
hello, I had to buy one. I just bought it at the Samsung store where I got the tablet. Was around P1,000 i believe.
I have both the Slim keyboard and the keyboard case with the trackpad. The keyboard case is very heavy and the trackpad isn't consistent. I actually prefer the Slim keyboard. It is much lighter and easier to travel with. But it does have limitations.
I can see that, the slim cover is much easier to use especially on my lap for example because it is in one piece instead of 2 pieces! I am however tired of having to swap cases so I kind of want that other case so I can remove the keyboard whenever I want!
I had both and sold the slim one, the typing experience is inferior and it generally felt like a subpar accessory compared to the book cover, also I prefer to be able to detach and use it as a stand, including with another keyboard
That's what I do. Use the kickstand with an iclever full sized foldable keyboard. Works fine.
This video is it edited by tab s9 too?
Hi! no I edited this video on my computer. I intend on editing on my tab s9 only for when I want to edit a simple video when I am traveling!
I am considering to buy s9 as well. But my concern is the 128gb internal memory because it will fill up quickly. Did you get 256 or 128gb version?
Hey I just got the 256gb version but to be honest internal memory isn't really an issue as these tablets allow for expandable external storage with a micro sd card! I had a 1TB sd card on mine before I switched to the iPad (i miss this feature btw)
I will mention though the new s10+ and s10 ultra are coming out.
@@RobbySanchez8 since i am planning to use the tablet to replace my laptop as well (i am tired of carrying a laptop everywhere), do you think 8gb of ram is enough? I will mostly use it to take notes, run a lot of tabs on chrome, make presentation and make documents.
@@RobbySanchez8 the s10+ is too big. I need something more portable, and s9 is still more affordable. Portability comes first for me, so i think 11 inch tablet like tab s9 is the most ideal size for me.
@@tomiwijaya3850 agreed as well 11inch is the perfect size for me. Well the tab s9 does have that expandable storage so I dont think you have anything to worry about. 1TB micro sd card is what I had on mine and i never even got it to fill up to half HAHA
This is a great video! Thanks
Playing netflix on browser instead of app possible
Can it open origingraph?
Can I code on s9 ultra??
Hi, my workflow doesnt involve coding but I have seen other UA-camrs coding on their Tab S9's so I would say you definitely can. Probably not to the same extent as using a dedicated pc though.
@@RobbySanchez8 aah okok, I am just confused as i want to do data analytics and also want to make academic notes ...so
@@VikasVlogs_111 With data analytics, well when I still had the tab s9, I dont have it anymore since I am using the iPad now, but when I did have it I was able to do basic data analysis on google sheets. Nothing too complex just basic computations and analysis.
@@VikasVlogs_111 I will say though, I am a business student and the tab s9 got me through an entire school year before I switched to an iPad.
@@RobbySanchez8 okay, so want to learn the coding stuff(such as python ,R, html etc.) and academic notes are also imp. So should I then buy a 360° laptop, as S9 series' and book 3 360 will cost me same
Hi..is it worth buying S8 now as it's cheaper and one reviewer said visually S8 and S9 display output quality looks the same...is that true?
hello! tbh in my opinion the quality visually is much better on the tab s9 I did not like the tab s8 for my own experience. If I was to get an s8 I would go for the s8+ or s8ultra
so suggest a wall charger for s9 tablet! might be with 100w charger becasue i'm thinking getting overal adaptor were you can charge everthing on one brick usefuel when you travel much@@RobbySanchez8
Nice1 thank u, i might go with tab A9+ than ipad mini7
Excellent review
love the video!!! pls post moreeeeeee
thank you so much!!!! I will! i love making these videos!
Did you get the regular S9 or the S9 Plus?
regular s9!
What mouse are using?
mx master 2
I'm gonna buy Tab S9 soon but it's only 8gb/128gb do you thing that's enough storage to keep up with performance? love this video btw!
yeah i would say 8gb would be okay for basic work like typing documents. but really, look towards the next upgrade. it might be much more beneficial!

What pc gaming you have? and ps5? how are you so rich?
HAHA a lot of hard work and dedication. My PC is a Ryzen 9 with 3070ti, let me know if I should do a video about it!
@@RobbySanchez8 yes
One question I'm planning to use this device for atleast 3 to 4 years so should i go for 8 gb ram or 12?
Most apps do great on 8gb ram and 12gb ram well it would depend on what you're going to do on the device. 12gb ram would be good in the long run but it's not necessary. Unless you plan on doing things like heavy gaming (Genshin impact type of games) or similar. Some apps may require more ram in the future
12GB RAM is future proofing
just like what these guys have said, for future proof 12GB would be my recommendation too!
@@RobbySanchez8 Yeah, if samsung leans into AI the 12GB of gen 5 ram could be useful
No app or game needs or can take advantage of more than 8GB, and it's probably not going to change anytime soon as developers have to take lower end devices into account. The main advantage of 12GB is to avoid reloads of apps and web pages
So cute 😊. Nice informative video.
Thank you :)
What size have you got
I have the 11inch version!
@Sancheezy8 cool I've got the same one do you need a specific adapter to be able to connect a mouse
@@declancooper2171 I am pretty sure almost any type-c hub on the market will do for just keyboard and mouse use. I personally use a bluetooth mouse and keyboard in order to keep the tablet setup more wireless. But I still have a type c hub in order to transfer files and connect an SD card.
What version did you purchase: the Cellular or WIFI? How much lahat nagastos mo, including the other accessories, if I may ask?
hello po! I got the wifi version kasi mas mura. and because I traded in my Tab s8 Ultra I only paid 15k and the keyboard came free and I got 50% off sa Galaxy buds 2 pro so additional 6k lang po.
