Just purchased the Tab S9 (12GB Ram, 256GB Storage) for $365 direct from Samsung. They were selling this model as a free upgrade from the base model, and they took my old Tab S6 Lite for a $250 trade in as part of a promotion. Normal trade in price was $80. Just waiting on the delivery!
Wow that sounds like a steal in my opinion. Great amount of RAM and 256GB of storage is always a plus over the 128GB. It’ll definitely be an upgrade from the Tab S6 lite.
Love my S9, 5 days old and its just great. Changed from ipad air 3, no comparison. The S9 is better in most areas IMO. App developers need to align IOS and android though.
I have the s6...Been using it for many years and it does everything I need it to...It still runs like day one...and the s6 has an oled screen too.No need whatsoever to upgrade right now.Maybe next year....but this is proof that although it may be 800 dollars,you are going to get 5 years out of it with daily use....that makes it a bargain IMO.I paid 500 for the s6...its an amazing tablet....crazy that its so fast and responsive after almost 5 years..
I questioned maybe getting the ultra but thought it would be too big in regard to portability. Do you often move around with it or keep it on a desk often?
I'm a college student, and I'm thinking of buying one of the S9 series tablets. I've enough money saved up to buy the S9 ultra, but should I really go for it? Or will it be an overkill, and I should purchase the lower-end models?
Ultra is overkill though, not friendly portable. Sure, its a beast but along the way, you might regret its big size. S9 or s9 plus wolud be more reasonable.
In my honest opinion, I would get the S9 + as it comes with a big 12.4 inch display and is still portable and comfortable to have in the hand. The S9 ultra in my opinion is more for people who plan on having it on a desk majority of the time.
This is amazing how tablet can easy surpass any Mcbook Pro for the same price (1400 for 1T/16GB) in usability, mobility, easy of everyday use and screen that saves 80% of harmful blue light when watching TV on it. I don't regret any penny spent on it. Laptops and probably big TVs are thing of the past
I actually picked up the plus version as well and I’m liking it more than the S9. I’m liking the additional RAM and size. I’m also liking the storage to start off with as well
I have buy the s9 plus and i watch on Netflix one piece and this was hdr content and the Display was DARK with Maximum britness. Do you have this Problem with your s9?
I’m surprised it was dark. I usually watch one piece on Crunchyroll. I’ll spend a few days testing this out on Netflix and see if the same thing happens to me.
It looks great! You’ll just have to decide whether or not you want a 11 inch display or 12.4 inch display. Though it sounds small it is a huge difference when holding them both in your hands. Especially if you’re holding them for a long time.
I still don't know whether to buy the S9 or S9 Plus, because of the size I still haven't decided, I want it to not weigh so much in my hand and I can take it everywhere, which of the two do you recommend?
About the size of the S9 vs S9+ vs S9 Ultra: For a long time, the biggest Android tablet you could get was around 11 inches. For me, this is just slightly too small for reading small text with my aging eyes. PDFs, e-textbooks, and digital comic books all require a lot of pinching and zooming to read. I was just about to break down and buy an iPad when the Galaxy Tab S7+ was announced. The plus form factor is perfect for me. I can easily read small text on PDFs, e-textbooks, or digital comic books even while using a treadmill or elliptical machine at the gym (with a sturdy, protective case, naturally). Further, this is about as big as I can handle cradling in my arms for long reading sessions on the couch (e-books, social media, etc). Having used the S7+ and now the S9+, I can tell that the Ultra would simply be too heavy for me, and I would have to use it as a strictly tabletop device. Some people complain that the official keyboard on the S9 vanilla is too small. I tend to use a protective case with a separate Bluetooth keyboard, so I wouldn't know. I don't game. I don't stream video (other than UA-cam). I don't do a lot of the things other people do with tablets. For me, this is a reader that also happens to function as a laptop replacement with extra good battery life. I gave away my Windows laptop years ago. The only time I use the camera on a tablet, it is either to take a picture of a whiteboard at class, or to take a picture of a model number on a device.
I honestly agree with you on how each size truly matters. For me I think the S9 and S9+ are great for people with smaller hands or just people who are looking to hold their tablet in their hands for long periods of time without killing their wrists. I honestly think the S9 Ultra is too big for most unless you plan on having it on a desk a majority of the time.
To be honest it depends on whether you plan on playing with a controller or not. To be honest, even though I love the 11inch S9 I do regret not getting the 12.4 inch S9+ but couldn’t justify the price difference as they have the same specs. Definitely go 128gh as it allows for an external ssd up to 1TB.
I got the Tab S9 Ultra 12 512 the 16 1 is probably amazing, but unnecessary cause you can just put the sd card in later on so you save some cash at the expense of 4 gb of ram
I thought about getting the S9 ultra but it felt like too big of a screen for me. I was also looking for something more portable. What have been your thoughts on it?
@VladGamingTechWorld I had some prejudice on optical sensors, and when I heard it didn't have an ultrasonic, I was upset, but I can not believe this beast of a tablet size supports wireless charging. That's crazy Edit: my galaxy tab s9 ultra is going to be delivered tomorrow I haven't actually gotten to try it yet, I loved your video
I use camera in tab heavily actually. A little bit of storing a book's page with information but especially i send my work by taking quick snaps of quiz that i am doing in my notebook. Now i wish there was flashlight in the tab. From what ik not even flagship tablet are having flashlight why did samsung had to put 2nd camera in + versions of tablet ?
If you like big screens I’d suggest you get the s9+ which is a perfect size for those who want something bigger than the s9 but also not extremely huge. In my opinion, the s9 ultra is just too big
Ihave the s9 i got rid of my ipad pro 11. 2022 and im lovjng it i wasnt paying 1000 for a tablet anymore i only payed 770 for the 256gb model and getting the new tab when it comesout next year in feb i gone off apple and their over priced items plus you get a pen with samsung

I love having both to be honest. They both have their strengths and weaknesses but I believe the MacBook Pro is still better.
Good to know. I usually feel peer pressure to buy the more expensive tablet. This seems perfect and cost effective
It definitely is
if it had the 512gb memory option i would have picked it. went for the plus version 512gb 5g and now not really regretting it
You can expand storage with SD lol
