I just got the Galaxy A9 128GB with 8GB ram for £160 on Amazon if anyone looking for one so far I love it only got it yesterday! A huge step up from my Fire 7 HD lol which I've had 9 years!
Hi. Great reviews. I don't watch a lot of videos on my A7 Lite or S6 Lite and I'm not sure if I ever will. A more realist video benchmark mig be a comparison with standard resolution PAL TV because that is my alternate - is it better than my TV? Thanks. Love your stuff. I'm not sure that the A9 has hit Australia yet. I've been hanging out for an 8" S Tablet, with an S Pen. I use both of my Tabs for aviation navigation and an S Pen is highly desirable. Cheers🎉
This tablet is no good when compared to the flagship tablets, but we have to remember even the power and some features in the flagship devices are ones that we have no use for. For light gaming, media consumption and even light work for documents and browsing even the budget tablets will be enough to do those. You might just notice smoother animations and maybe some faster speeds om flagships, other than that the regular user will be happy with this tablet
Only deal breaker for me is literally dex mode. Like literally idk why they didn't include it on the A9 model. Would've been the best budget tab. A9+ is only like a little cheaper than the s6 lite.
Been using one on your recommendation (the a9). Great little tablet. Im not a fan of big tablets and this one feels like a very very large phone. Feels nice to use one handed which is a big plus to me. UA-cam, spotify and browsing works fine as well. Only thing I had to do was setting up a 2.4 wifi network because this tablet doesnt work nicely with a router switching networks when you get some distance.
Hi, I'm facing some strange multi touch issues on my tab A9+ which was delivered a week back. Samsung service center has acknowledged it too but the samsung wont accept it as a manufacturing defect. I scoured the internet and found many such posts on reddit, samsung members and google forums about the issue. Please help amplify it. I havent seen any reviewers talk about it. Double fingers pinch to zoom also has these issues Edit : have uploaded a video regarding same
So far so good on my A9, writing this message on it actually. I even use it for light gaming, I play MTG Arena on it as well. I also have the A9+ with 8gb ram, don't notice a performance difference when gaming. Probably I would notice if I did more than just UA-cam, Facebook, Chrome, and MTG but they seem about the same to me. The A9+ will be getting returned (mostly because it's just too big).
@@crestafan3703 I don't use the tablet every day and when I do use it, I use it for like an hour, so I don't pay much attention to the battery. It doesn't seem to drain much when I'm not using it though. I charge it like once a week.
@@crestafan3703 mine seems to be good, I try to NEVER discharge to anything below 30-40% to protect the battery (and I limit the charging using the Samsung 85% maximum charge option) but for the first 3 or so days I would charge it to 100% and it seems to me that you can expect around 10 hours of on-screen/dolbyised audio use with relatively bright screen and some reasonable use; with your brightness lowered down to bearable and battery saving option I guess it'd give you some 12 hours. To me it's reasonable. WiFi always on of course. Again, WiFi off, perhaps 12-15 hours (my estimation based on years of experience dealing with similar devices)
Any help in setting default wifi network. Cant seem to figure out how to accomplish and have competing networks where i use tablet with one much more reliable. Thx!
Depends what you value more: A bigger screen and keyboard option (Lenovo) or longer software updates (Samsung). Both are good tablets, so you cannot do much wrong with either and if you don't care about the features I mentioned, I would pick the cheapest of the two.
The "Motion Smoothness" feature aren't available on my Samsung tab A9 Android 14. 6.1 UI. Regarding the Taskbar: One doesn't have do deactivate it in settings: You can simply press and hold, usually with the tomb, either the right or left corner and it will disappear/reappear = Very simple and easy. Regarding screenshots: This can also be done by the very popular "Smart Select" panel, from the Panel you have on your A9 on the right side of the screen: You can turn on the edge panel in settings if it aren't turned on by default. When turned on you can make it more clear in settings. The edgepanel sits at the right side of your screen on your tablet. The screenshots: you can add this panel to your edge-panel and the name of the panel is the very popular "Smart Select": This smart select option can take both rectangle and oval screenshots. Regarding multitasking: This can also be done from the edge panel = way easier than pressing 2 buttons at the same time.
Thanks for these trips & tricks. Kindly, I can't find Samsung DeX on my A9 to try HDMI connect to a projector/data show. Any help? is there an application or something to download that would connect?
Im watching on my a9, and i find it massive. idk how big the plus is. Also, i don't need a flagship tablet cause i have a flagship phone and a Galaxy book for heavy tasks
Bought it the other day for 119 euros. Really love the form factor, but I the screen resolution and colour reproduction is really bad...especially with the eye confort shield thingie turned on.... 🆗, I give you, I am accostumed tô the Tab S9, tab S6, but I think that even my son's galaxy tab from from 2019 has a better screen.... Also bought other galaxy tab a9 trifolio official case and it sucks... Does not have auto turn on or off...!
A ver6 good tips for a9 . I think now a days one should have 2 tablets , on 8 or 8.7 other 11 or more . A9 is perfect for reading and quick youtube or if watching news can read on the a9 . A9is somewhat like kindle , i have k8ndle also basic , i somewhat find a9 a much better value, especially if u got samsumg s series for the 11 and bigger , what ever u write will appear in a9 ,also i but paperlike on both tablets , cannt live withou them,makes them very loveable . And also had xiaomi tab6, which i got for it 304 ppi , but 7nfortunaly netflix is only standard definition. Very disappointing. Sold it got s6 lite .2hich has ULtra high definition, surprisingly and L3 for netflix. S9 is great value in turkey with 122 usd for 128 version . Cheers

Try the stylus with the silicone disc. Much more precise.
Looks ugly af tho

If I connect tablet 5G on hotspot, it takes a lot of data for UA-cam?
Video streaming always takes a lot of data, even at 480p
The navigation bar is only in the corner bro ? Can it move to the middle of the screen? Like mobile i mean ?! Only corners!! Plz i need your answer
Yes you can adjust it by deactivating the task bar
Turn off the navigation button should make it go middle i think

Thanks
The a9+ supports external monitors wirelessly only
Turn dex on and off in settings
The a9 does not have dex but the a9+ does
what is your keyboard?
It is made by "Jelly Comb", you can see it on the video at 12:33.
Man you need to fix your Brightness. The white colours are too bright.

Only on the plus version I think.
Can a9 cellular make and receive calls without a phone accompanying it?
Yes that's the point of lte
