    A Stellar Budget Tablet

    The Samsung Galaxy Tab A9+ 11-inch stands out as an exceptional value in the budget tablet market. It delivers a surprisingly premium experience for its price, making it a strong contender for anyone seeking a versatile and affordable device for entertainment, casual productivity, and family use. Right out of the box, the Tab A9+ impresses with its sleek, refined design. The aluminum build gives it a more premium feel than its price tag suggests, and at just 6.9mm thin and around 480g, it's comfortable to hold despite its large 11-inch screen. The display itself is a highlight: an 11-inch LCD with a resolution of 1920 x 1200 pixels. While it's not an OLED, it provides vibrant colors and is well-suited for media consumption. The 90Hz adaptive refresh rate is a fantastic addition at this price point, ensuring smooth scrolling and a more fluid user experience compared to the typical 60Hz panels found in similar tablets. Indoor viewing is great, though direct sunlight can cause some wash-out Tab A9+ offers solid performance for everyday tasks. Whether you're Browse the web, streaming videos, or tackling light productivity (like documents or emails), the tablet handles it smoothly. For gaming, it's best suited for casual titles rather than graphically demanding ones, but the 90Hz display certainly enhances the experience. Multitasking is also a strong point, with Samsung DeX mode and the multi-active window feature allowing you to comfortably use up to three apps on a split screen. While the 4GB RAM model might be a bit sluggish for heavy users, the 8GB RAM variant offers a noticeable boost in performance. One of the pleasant surprises of the Tab A9+ is its audio. It features a quad-speaker setup with Dolby Atmos support, delivering rich and clear sound that punches above its weight class. This makes it excellent for watching movies or listening to music. Battery life is another strong suit, with the 7040 mAh battery easily lasting a full day of mixed use, and often a couple of days with lighter usage. Standby time is also commendable. However, one notable downside is the relatively slow 15W charging, which means it will take a few hours to fully top up the battery. The Tab A9+ offers ample storage options, starting from 64GB and going up to 256GB. Crucially, it includes a microSD card slot, allowing for expandable storage up to 1TB – a huge plus for those who store a lot of media or documents. For connectivity, both Wi-Fi and 5G cellular models are available, providing flexibility for on-the-go usage. Cameras: As expected from a budget tablet, the cameras are not a strong point. The 8MP rear camera and 5MP front-facing camera are adequate for video calls and basic snapshots in good lighting, but don't expect stunning detail or vibrant colors. They get the job done for casual use, but won't replace your smartphone camera. Running on Android with Samsung's One UI, the tablet benefits from a familiar and user-friendly interface. Samsung's commitment to software updates is also a positive, with the promise of several years of updates. Features like Samsung Kids, parental controls, and seamless connectivity within the Samsung Galaxy ecosystem further enhance the overall user experience. Pros: * Large, smooth 11-inch 90Hz display * Premium and sturdy design for its price * Excellent quad-speaker setup with Dolby Atmos * Long-lasting battery life * Expandable storage via microSD card * Solid performance for everyday tasks and casual gaming * Samsung DeX and multi-active window for enhanced productivity * Affordable price point. Conclusion: The Samsung Galaxy Tab A9+ 11-inch is an outstanding choice for anyone seeking a feature-rich tablet without breaking the bank. It excels as a media consumption device with its large, smooth display and impressive audio. Its capable performance, excellent battery life, and expandable storage make it a highly practical device for families, students, or casual users. While it has some expected compromises in camera quality and charging speed, these are minor trade-offs given its compelling price-to-performance ratio. If you're looking for a reliable, enjoyable, and budget-friendly Android tablet, the Galaxy Tab A9+ should be at the top of your list.

    I recently purchased the Samsung Galaxy Tab A9+ and I couldn't be happier with my decision! This tablet has quickly become my go-to device for both work and leisure. First off, the 11-inch display is absolutely stunning. The colors are vibrant, and the clarity is impressive, making it perfect for streaming my favorite shows and movies. Whether I’m watching a documentary or catching up on the latest series, the visuals are sharp and immersive. The performance is another highlight. With 128GB of storage, I have plenty of space for apps, photos, and videos. The tablet runs smoothly, even when I have multiple apps open. I’ve used it for everything from video calls to graphic design, and it handles everything with ease. The battery life is also commendable; I can easily get through a full day of use without needing to recharge. I appreciate the sleek graphite design, which gives it a modern and professional look. It’s lightweight and portable, making it easy to carry around whether I’m heading to a coffee shop or just moving from room to room at home. One of my favorite features is the Samsung DeX mode, which allows me to use the tablet like a desktop. This has been a game-changer for my productivity, especially when I need to work on documents or presentations. Overall, the Samsung Galaxy Tab A9+ is a fantastic investment for anyone looking for a reliable and versatile tablet. It combines performance, style, and functionality seamlessly. Highly recommend it to anyone in the market for a new tablet!

    Really good tablet pretty fast and I’m able to video call and have multiple tabs open at once while it runs smoothly still. It has a dex feature which is really nice I can pretty much use it like a tablet or a laptop when I attach a keyboard. But I first bought the 4gb ram and the mouse would be so choppy and hard to use and the tablet was significantly slower and glitchier than the 8gb ram definitely recommend buying the 8 ram. The battery is also good I can go a few days without charging it.

    Love this tablet. The Samsung Galaxy Tab A9+ works great. I bought this tablet in October 2024. The battery life seems to be really good. Even playing games on my tablet, the batter didn't get drained too fast. The Google keyboard comes up very promptly when I want to type something like when I'm on my social media or something. I can see everything on the screen very clearly (the graphics are excellent), and the performance is great. It doesn't lag when I'm playing games and the tablet doesn't take forever to start up either. I have 128GB of Internal Storage to work with, and it accepts SD for extra storage. And it takes great pictures. This is a really great tablet. I HIGHLY recommend it.

    For the price, it is a decent tablet if you plan to use it as a media device, like reading and watching videos. It's also going to get 4 years of Android updates (based on release date of the device). I prefer the 128gb version did the extra RAM. Does support an external SD card. I did wish it had a fingerprint scanner, but does have a face unlock option. While the device will warn it is less secure, from what i tested, it does at least know if your eyes are closed. It seems like it is on sale offen for around $50 off, and for that price, i think it is one of the better budget/mid-range tablets.

    I bought this Samsung Galaxy tablet for my son, and we’re both really happy with it! It’s fast, lightweight, and has a clear, bright screen that’s perfect for watching videos, reading, and educational games. The battery life is also impressive—it lasts a long time even with daily use. I also appreciate the Kids Mode and parental controls, which give me peace of mind while he uses it. It feels sturdy and well-made, and the performance is great for the price. Definitely a smart purchase for school and fun. Highly recommend for families!

    We didnt need a crazy fancy one. This replaced an old tablet my mother-in-law used for basic stuff like social media, online shopping, and simple game apps. Works without any problems.

    I purchased this tablet because I returned to school and needed something else to go along with my laptop. It does exactly what I needed it to. The screen is the perfect size for reading articles, and scrolling the internet is a breeze. I got a keyboard to go along with it, and I did not need it; the tablet keys were all I needed. I love this tablet.

    I thoroughly enjoy this tablet. I can't believe how large it is. Impressive. The battery lasts quite long as well. Pictures from it are beautiful & can play my games with no lagging. I don't care for Samsung phones, but I LOVE their tablets, & have an older one that still works great. Only way to go far as tablets go, is Samsung. I love it

    Got this tablet as open box. As a technician, my idea was to use it for work as an easier way to access resources such as manuals and schematics. Got a case and use a magnetic clip-mount while working. Its perfect for what wanted it for and for the price, it couldnt be beat. I will say the camera is why i give it 4 stars. Not the best quality but it gets the job done. Photo is example of picture quality.

    A giant leap from the a7 I had. Thank goodness for the 90ghz, much better. It serves most games but I wouldn't recommended for extreme frame rate games. It's fast as long as you don't have 10+ apps open at once. Battery life is just a smidge behind the a7 but it's more powerful so it still last me 3 or 4 days. Overall I hand it a A- for it's price range.

    It’s perfect! I’m a trucker and hate watching content on my phone and having to hold it simultaneously, with this and the foldable cover that’s a thing of the past! Right amount of storage and video quality for streaming! Super nifty and can’t recommend enough!

    I especially like the ice maker on this one. And the bonus is a pitcher that automatically refills so you always have cold water. Everything is inside , ice maker, pitcher and the water dispenser and the controls . It was a surprise to know that there is a lot of spaces so I can put more stuff in. Another big surprise is that you can put bottles up and that is a must for me. Over all, everything works great and looks great.
