Excellent for GoPro playbacks! This tab is very fast. I bought it for travel, but I use it a lot at home. Its wifi connection works well. I do not have wifi 6e at home, but I can get over 500 Mbps up and down (see attached photo).
If you expect to be in the weather, this is for you with an rating of IP68.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra has made me fall in love with tablets all over again. Not only is it an absolute powerhouse with a gorgeous display, but it packs a ton of very useful features. It's also one of the most beautiful pieces of tech that I've had the opportunity to get my hands on lately. From a design and construction perspective, the S9 Ultra boasts a razer-thin chassis with beautifully chiseled edges. It houses a very sleek and premium aluminum frame and back that is very rigid with almost zero bend (even when applying a lot of pressure). The massive corning gorilla glass screen is a generous 14.6 inches with wafer thin bezels. The S-Pen neatly, and magnetically, nestles into a dedicated S-pen slot that's integrated into the back frame of the tablet. The entire package looks like a work of art.
I've used several tablets from both of the well known ecosystems and after using the S9 Ultra, in terms of the full package, I'm convinced that it's currently the best tablet on the market. The careful UI design that went into the S9's Android OS is simply on another level. For example, I love how Samsung has thoughtfully placed the navigation bar with the home, back, and recents shortcuts in a small footprint at the bottom right corner of the tablet. This makes it so that you can easily and effortlessly reach over as you're using the tablet. This seems like a small thing but it's a big deal in practice when using a screen of this size. I've also had a blast using the S-Pen on the S9 Ultra (I also like that the pen comes included and you don't have to buy it separately like with some other competitors). Since I already use an S22 Ultra as my primary phone, I'm happy to report that the S-Pen on the S9 Ultra brings all the same features we've come to know and love. Having the ability to instantly crop images or text using "Smart Select" or being able to instantly select an image to impose your own hand-written captions using "Screen Write" is something that has become part of my daily life. I think having these features on a tablet for productivity work is immensely valuable and has become a must for me at this point. Also, if you're already invested in the Android ecosystem, you're going to love some of the native features found on the S9 Ultra like "QuickShare". Quickshare allows you to seamlessly and instantly share images, videos, and files between your Samsung phone and the S9 Ultra. Another great feature is the "Call & text on other devices" option. This allows you to link the S9 ultra to your Samsung phone and allows you to send/receive calls and text messages directly from your tablet. However, this feature does not work with Verizon and AT&T phones which was a bit of a disappointment.
In terms of performance, the S9 Ultra with it's Qualcomm snapdragon 8 gen 2 processor has been flawless. The Qualcomm Adreno 740 GPU with ray tracing is also equally as impressive. I benchmarked it by running Wildlife on 3D Mark and it scored a whopping 14,656 with an average framerate of 87.76 (see screenshot). This is amongst the best scores that you can get on a flagship today. To test real-world performance, I fired up Alien Isolation and paired my PS5 dualsense controller via bluetooth to the S9 Ultra. The gaming experience was nothing short of amazing. Graphics looked stunning, there was no noticeable lag between the S9 ultra and my wireless dualsense controller, and the game ran at about 35-65 FPS with the highest graphical setting option selected. Considering that this is a very graphically demanding game, I was very happy with the performance. For more conventional tasks like browsing the internet, watching videos, listening to podcasts/music, etc., the S9 Ultra effortlessly devoured everything in it's path. Closing and opening applications is very snappy. Toggling between applications and navigating through different menus within the apps feels incredibly fluid thanks to the 120hz AMOLED 2X display. It's a bit difficult to describe but whenever I use the S9 Ultra, it's so fast and snappy that it almost feels as if it knows what you're going to do before you do it on the actual display. The touch registration on the display is just that fast.
The S9 Ultra has features that deservedly earn it the title of being Samsung's current flagship tablet. The display is by far my favorite part of the tablet. The 14.6 Dynamic AMOLED 2x 120 HZ truly is a display that must be experienced in person to truly appreciate it. It's the best display I've ever used on any mobile device. Being an AMOLED 2X with support for HDR 10 plus, you get true black levels that are deep and inky. Color accuracy has also been improved with the AMOLED 2X display over its predecessor whereby colors were a bit oversaturated. Colors are still vibrant and vivid but skin tones and warmer colors seem to be represented more accurately. The resolution is an extremely high 2960 x 1848 which makes 4k and QHD content look phenomenal. Images are crisp and crystal clear. I also love that unlike other flagship tablets currently on the market, videos take up the entire screen giving you an immersive experience. The sound on the S9 Ultra is also very impressive. The tablet comes with AKG tuned quad firing speakers with Dolby Atmos support. These things get loud! Not only that, but the highs and mids are very crisp with very minimal distortion. The low frequency has a bit of boominess to it without any distortion either. The only thing to watch out for is where you place your hands while holding the tablet. I have noticed that when I'm holding the tablet, my fingers will occasionally cover the speakers. When this happens the sound will distort due to your fingers trapping the sound. When I first noticed it, I thought it was maybe the volume level causing the distortion but then I quickly realized that it was due to my hands covering the speaker. If you notice any type of audio distortion, watch those fingers!
Overall, this is the best tablet I've ever used. Because of it's ability to function both as a productivity powerhouse and a top tier media content device, it will be accompanying me on all of my travel. I also haven't even mentioned how this S9 Ultra is IP68 certified (dust/water resistant), has an expandable microsd card slot, has a fantastic camera, and also has an incredible 11,200 mAh battery. I played a full hour long session of Alien Isolation and still had a whopping 87% of battery left! After my time using the S9 Ultra, I highly recommend picking up the smart cover accessory. Not only does it fit like a glove, but the built-in stand is really sturdy. The magnetic cover for the S-pen is also brilliant (see pictures). If you're looking for a high performance tablet with one of the best displays on the market, I highly urge you consider the S9 Ultra.

Great tablet I will be upgrading to the biggest memory shortly i love it so much. Easily lets you multi-task and move seamlessly through apps and with great refresh time and functionality, I only wish is was it could be used on cellular service that would make this tablet invincible.

The Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra is undoubtedly the most powerful tablet on the market to date. Boasting the featured snapdragon gen 2 processor and one of the most gorgeous displays on any touch screen device, there’s no better time than now to make the leap to tablet if you’ve previously been hesitant.
Out of the box, the massive 14.6 inch screen will blow you away with its dynamic Amoled display and almost bezeless aluminum frame. Ultra-thin, ultra-responsiveness and ultra-fast animation bring this beast to life making it and all in one powerhouse. Multitasking? Check. Productivity? Check. Gaming? Check. Adequate substitute pc? Check. The s9 ultra can do it all, without breaking a sweat. Thanks to the 11,200mAh battery, you’ll have plenty of juice to get you by throughout the day. I found myself barely needing to charge after 4 hours of straight use, it would only drop about 35% with games like Call of Duty mobile and Genshin Impact. Storage is also a non-issue thanks to the built in micro sd slot, so if 256 gb isn’t enough, expand it!
Samsung has made strides to their multi app functionality and smart use of window mapping, if you’re used to their galaxy z fold series, you’ll feel right at home. However, you can do so much more with a ton of extra screen space and the s pen, as it ships in box without an additional purchase. Before, I thought of the s pen as a gimmick to the note series, but now I can see myself using it with the tab s9 as a true accessory. Drawing, taking notes, conferencing, navigation, you name it. In case you haven’t updated to the latest operating system on your mobile device, the tab s9 features Android 13 straight away.
For those pc enthusiasts, if you haven’t tried Samsung Dex, you really should. Dex will take your tablet to the next level making it a true desktop alternative, whether you choose to combine it with keyboard and mouse or not, though that would definitely enhance the experience.
The AKG speakers sound incredible, featuring Dolby Atmos surround sound. I’ve been impressed by Samsung’s sound quality for years but the default audio profile here is superb. Nothing feels muddled or washed out, even at higher volumes, where you’d usually get a crunchy tone, here it’s just enjoyable at all ranges.
Lastly, some general advice for those interested in delving into the tablet market, do yourselves a favor and buy a screen protector and case for this bad boy. It’s too pretty to get scratched or damaged. Yes, it’s an investment, but worth it. Five stars isn’t enough, id give it a solid 10 if I could. Samsung pushed the bar once again bridging the gap between portable and performance.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra is Samsung’s largest tablet out of its newly released S9 lineup. This tablet is aimed as a laptop replacement based on its sheer size and performance specs, while also looking at the professional market with its included S-Pen for productivity tasks. I have ample experience with computers, laptops, chromebooks, and phones but I haven’t purchased my own tablet since 2017 and then messing with my kids tablet here and there.
Using the Ultra has been interesting. I have gotten a decent grasp of some of the features – face unlock, fingerprint reader, and the S-Pen were all new to me. I’ve used it to stream Netflix, play on Xbox Gamepass XCloud, run my Google Home suite of devices, and do a little bit of art.
My experience with the S9 Ultra has been positive. I was surprised at the speed and snappiness of switching and launching new apps. Having several apps running in the background didn’t seem to slow it up at all. About the only time I could get it to push its limits was during some XCloud gaming sessions. The connection to the XCloud was seamless, and connecting my Xbox controller was no issue. I played Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order and Back 4 Blood while connected to my 6E router. I had a great connection to the service and experienced really smooth gameplay. It was honestly pretty great, but if I had a bunch of apps running in the background I would experience a bit of input lag. However, if I was going for a serious gaming session I would make sure to kill any extra apps like this.
Using the S-Pen was a breeze. It magnetically connects to the black section on the backside of the tablet. It sticks to the backside with the tip facing either direction, but it sticks the best with the tip closest to the camera. This area also charges the pen while it is attached there. I did some light drawing and writing with the pen, and found it to work really well. It was accurate and responsive to my inputs. Screen tracking with the pen is well managed.
Using the tablet I have noticed a number of things to note. Due to the size and dimensions of the tablet, it can be worrying to use while walking around. I honestly live in fear of dropping the tablet while trying to use it one handed – I can’t imagine not springing for a case or cover in the very near future. The tablet dimensions are impressive to me – the size of the screen paired with the thinness is amazing in my eyes. It’s thinner than my phone for crying out loud, and I thought my phone was pretty thin. The thinness makes me think that if I add a cover/case then it still won’t be all that bulky.
Sound quality out of the system speakers was surprisingly powerful. I was thinking that it would be closer to my phone speakers, but it had a lot more kick. Sound quality was good as well. The speakers were clear even at higher volumes. Bass reproduction is lacking, but that is to be expected out of a thin tablet. Watching a movie on Netflix I was perfectly OK using the external speakers.
Overall, the S9 Ultra is an amazing tablet. The size alone is worth the look. Feature wise it has everything that I would want out of a flagship tablet – 6E WiFi, terrific front facing cameras, crisp and clear Super AMOLED screen, expandable storage capacity, and S-Pen. I would absolutely recommend a folio cover or case though. I can’t imagine going for much longer without investing in one.
