    Samsung S tablets are phenomenal!!

    Now that I've owned the 11in Samsung S9 Tablet in beige for 4 months I finally feel comfortable writing about it. My household has the S7, S8, and the S9 (all 11in screens and all come with the S pen). The S9 is superior when it comes to battery life and graphics. The S8 is very close to the S9 and is only edged out by battery life and storage availability. I say that but I've only used 40 GB out of 256 GB, I use it daily and have games, my son's pdfs and PowerPoints for school (he's homebound so lots of document files), every stream app you can think of (there's 11 ), a couple of financial apps (4), a couple music apps (4), every Samsung app available because my washer, dryer, ear buds, and tv can hook to my tablet (6). Oh and let's not forget the pics, videos, and screenshots (the kids mainly). I haven't had any issues at all, no lagging, no glitches, and no delays. It has worked flawlessly since day one. I'm very happy with my purchase and have told anyone that will listen about the Samsung S9 tablet and how it reigns superior!! Accessories I bought: Zagg Invisible shield advance tempered glass screen protector and the Samsung book cover keyboard slim case (pic included of the case open and closed). I'm happy with the protection I purchased as well.

    A little better than S6

    My wife has been using Samsung Tab S tablets since they came out. I've upgraded from Tab S1 to S3, S3 to S6 and now S6 to S9. She really like the smaller 11" tablet, hope they bring it back in the future as there is no 11" S10 tablet. I have to complement Samsung for FINALLY making migration from one version to another far easier than it was in the past. The last two moves were a nightmare requiring much to be deleted before migrations was possible. This time it far easier (more Apple like). The S9 screen is a little better than the S6. The S9 is a little larger and heavier (3.1oz) than the S6. General single task performance seems to be the same but multi-tasking and task switching is much better. I wish Samsung would get rid of the bloatware they ship/require on the tablet. Deleting YouTube works until they do an update then it reappears (as do several other apps). The new pencil is also an improvement. It doen't have as many skips, and it draws smoother. Still the S9 is pricey.

    Outstanding Tablet

    To start with, I upgraded from a Tab 6S to the Tab S9, what a great upgraded move for me. I did not go with the TabS9 Ulta due to the size I wanted a smaller size tablet. The Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 has an 11-inch display with an 8,400mAh battery and it weighs in at a little more than a pound, which is very nice. Thus far the battery like is much better than my S6, with a much longer life between charges. Excellent sharp and bright display, better than I expected and much more brilliant than my S6 Enough room for multitasking plus more, which is a huge plus for me. A very unique feature of these new tablets is the IP68 dust/water resistant rating, which I did not know it had but what a feature. When getting work done, hands down for me Samsung DeX is a great tool to have, DeX is outstanding and I would not buy a Samsung table without it!! I can highly recommend the Tab S9!!

    I'm very happy with my Samsung Galaxy Tab S9. It's not so large to be cumbersome, but it's big enough with a very sharp screen. It's great for just about anything you'd need a laptop for, but in a much more portable size. Great speed, sufficient memory, good battery life. It's my 3rd Samsung Tablet and I've been happy with all of them.

    Best Android Tablet on the Market

    I wasn't going to pick up the Tab S9 but the trade in deals were just too good to pass up. Best Buy was offering me a $550.00 trade in for my Tab S8, which is, strangely enough, what I actually paid for my Tab S8. I still wasn't going to upgrade because I just bought the Book Cover Case for my S8, but then they sweetend the deal. They offered the same trade in AND they bumped up the storage from 128GB to 256GB and the RAM from 8GB to 12GB. I ended up getting the Tab S9 for $276.00 after tax and trade in. The offer was too good to pass up. And while this is the best android tablet you can get, there is no way I would have paid full retail, $799.99, for this tablet, as great as it is. The good news is the keyboard portion of the case I bought for the Tab S8 works just fine on the S9, in fact, I'm using it to write this review. The back cover, with the stand with the awesome hinge, however, does not fit correctly. The tablet itself is awesome. The amoled screen is the best of any tablet. What is a little strange is that I don't see that it's any better than the LCD I had on the S8. Samsung just makes the best screens, hands down, on any device. The extra RAM is appreciated but the extra storage is really great. I had expanded my storage on the S8 but it's not really necessary here. It's a little thinner than the S8 and I picked up the smart cover (no keyboard) for the S9. The magnets are a lot stronger and the pen can charge in both directions when you put it in. Dex mode for me is the real winner here. These tablets have basically replaced my laptop for everything except where I need a program that is only available for Windows. I highly recommend this tablet but I will say don't pay full price. If you can trade in something, do it, Samsung offers awesome trade ins. If you can't, I'd wait for a Black Friday sale. As great as this thing is, I can't recommend paying $799 for it. Or, you might be able to pick up a brand new S8 for a good price since the S9 is out. I hope this helps.

    1. As long as you don’t need to download too many entertainment apps, the experience of taking notes and reading PDFs is great. 2. The machine is very thin and light, with first-class texture and high-end screen display and external speakers. 3. The pen is very light, has a good writing experience, has moderate friction and damping on the screen, and the pen head has a certain degree of elasticity.

    EXCELLENT TABLET!

    I'm a Samsung and Android power user when it comes to phones, but I've had little personal use case for a tablet. As I have an international job, I'm doing a fair amount of travel these days and decided to get a decent tablet to take on my trips - Glad I decided to get this beauty over a cheaper or older model. Blazingly fast processor, excellent camera, full functionality with almost all the apps I use on my phone, connectivity with my other Samsung devices, very decent speakers, and integration with MS Office makes this a no-brainer. Oh, the display is sublime! The S-Pen is, as is with these higher-end Samsung devices, the start of the show. My main use of this tablet is for writing and design - I take copious notes in meeting and love to doodle in my down time and the S-Pen gives me the flexibility and precision to do both. While an S8 series would do most people well, the S9 is an excellent tablet that, while expensive, will last you years to come unless you're always chasing after the next new thing (which isn't always the best new thing).

    My inital plan was to buy a second electronic devices for entertainment. My first store was Apple store, I took a look at there Ipad newest selections and wasn't impressed with the graphic quality. The only comparable quality to the Tab S9 (smallest size) is the Ipad Pro (only the largest screen size). I care most for how the picture quality turned out, and the Tab S9 gives an excellent 4K quality video. In term of power, ofc I can play all of the mobiles that some Iphone model keep crashing or burning really hot when just playing a short time. I purchased the Flip 5 as well, and very fond of these Samsung flagship products. I owned both Apple and Samsung phone and tablet before. For me, Android system is easy to use, and allows me to multi-task better with 2 app open at the same time (Gmail/Internet browser, Notes/Audio book, etc.)

    I recently purchased the Samsung Tab s9 from Best Buy, and overall, I’m impressed with its performance. The device offers great value for the price, with a solid build and sleek design that feels premium in hand. The screen is vibrant with excellent resolution, making it ideal for watching videos, browsing, and even light photo editing. One of the standout features is its battery life, which easily lasts me throughout the day with moderate use (web browsing, watching media, and some gaming). The tablet is quite responsive, thanks to the powerful processor, and multitasking is smooth.

    We stayed with the 11" just so it FELT more like a tablet instead of a Samsung laptop. We also opted for the 256 GB, because it's powerful enough to handle the gaming demands of your average 6th grader, and still allow plenty of room on the device for pictures/videos and yes, even dreaded schoolwork. It really doesn’t get much better than this unless you splurged for a bigger screen or a greater capacity internal storage. The kid plays 4-5 hours of graphic & resource- intensive games daily, records/edits/streams from time to time and at bedtime, after being off the charger since 3pm the device is usually still 40-50% charged. The only thing from keeping me from awarding a 5 star rating are my gripes: the lack of a headphone jack and the fact that there is no wall-charger included! This is the standard now, but that doesn't make it any more acceptable-especially when you're paying almost $1000 for these devices! Just 5 years ago, we got a wall charger with cord, and pretty sure some wired ear buds..." (with a $300 galaxy tab A!!)
