Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 11” 256GB WiFi 7 Android AI Tablet, Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 Processor, AMOLED Screen, Durable Design, S Pen Included, Long Battery Life, Auto Focus Camera, US Version, 2023, Graphite

This tablet has been one of the best that I've ever used! Transferring my information over for my phone to the tablet was seamlessly gone over wireless and done quickly. The tablet is a little weighty, and the case I bought makes it a little cumbersome but I think it is worth the protection. The tablet works with my home internet without interruption and is always available upon logging in. I'm not much of a gamer but the games I play do not lag and are right on time. The screen and the color interpretation are much improved over my TV and although they are equal to my phone the tablet is 11 in. I decided to purchase this tablet before the tariffs raise the price and I got in just under it as the price is now increased almost $200. That alone would have put it out of my price range, so I'm glad I purchased this and I think it's one of the best purchases that I made this year.

I saw a different model i got to try in person. The S9 FE and the S9 FE+ compared to my S25 Ultra they felt quite slow in comparison. Not that they were but comparisons are the joy killer. I got this one sale for just a bit more than those models and it runs so buttery smooth. Im quite unsure of how it compares to my phone but it must be in the same level of diminishing returns as I cannot tell the difference.Consuming content on this tablet is a joy and I get a lot of use out of it practicing my handwriting, essentially as a fancy white board. Granted i did put a paper like film over it to help with that.

Very good addition to my Samsung Galaxy collection, very easy to setup with stepdaughter by step instructions as soon as you turn it on and smoothly syncs with my S24+ phone so I get all my notifications, messages, and I can reply too!

I knew exactly what I was buying. Very sufficient for me. Great picture and sound

Tablet is pretty nice. Set up was a little finicky while transferring data and aps from my S24 Ultra. It wouldn't let me do it over Wi-Fi, so I had to use the included transfer cable. For that kind of money, it would have been nice if it had a proper charger + plug, even though the superchargers are cheap on here, and most people already have one now adays. It went through all my games pretty flawlessly. I have a gaming PC also so it's easy to compare speeds. I have to say, Torchlight Infinite is a ton of fun on it. The screen is beautiful and there's not a ton of complicated options and features to figure out. Just set up and start using it. It comes with a 45% battery charge which was a nice surprise. Looking forward to watching Youtube and doing art on it also.

Outstanding tablet. I got the WIFI only version and it pairs great with my samsung S25 Ultra as well. Love the on-screen finger print feature and the upgraded OLED display over the S9 FE (Which is a great device as well). The Samsung ecosystem is just fantastic. It's not just what this device can do, but how it integrates with your other devices as well. My S25 phone gets dropped into it's charge cradle when I'm at home and stays there while the S9 becomes it's clone while I'm home being able to make and receive calls, texts and literally everything else my phone can do. It also makes a great home hub for all the IOT things around the house. Samsung is really nailing it!

Love this tablet, it runs fast and switches smoothly from app to app. The landscape mode is the only thing I don't really like, it will only turn one direction to watch in landscape which is not convenient. I would check to see when the newest one will be released before spending over 1K on a tablet though. You could end up with an older tablet when the newest is coming out in a month or so.Battery life is great, I use it every day & listen to it all night every night. Easy to set up, easy to use, easy to transport or travel with. Easily pairs with any Bluetooth keyboard and any other BT devices.

My previous Samsung Note tablet circa 2014 is very old. Not wanting to purchase a new tablet I reformatted it hopefully to bring it back to life. But its old and not useful for todays apps. About a year or more has passed before looking again at the tablet world. I rocked a Samsung not 8 phone well past its use and recently upgraded to a S23. I absolutely love the S-pen and S-Note. My new tablet had to be pen capable. Just using a pen is way different than pen features baked into the ecosystem of the device.Enter the S9 tablet family. I played around with the idea of getting by with one from the S8 family because of expense, but I like bells and whistles. I also intend to have this tablet for many years, so OS updating is important.I picked the Samsung S9 plus. Amazon was offering it with 512gb with 13 percent off which was 30 bucks cheaper than the 256gb version. I've played the available built in storage game before. I'll be using this tablet for a variety of functions so having the larger space for apps and all of my projects will be nice.Test...First I charge to full capacity before turning it onI then used Samsung's transfer tool and copied my apps from my S23 to the S9 plus tablet. This worked without a hitch.Let those apps updateUpdate the OS under settingsPlay time....Audio-I read that the sound of this tablet was superb so I head to play something from my Amazon collection before heading to YouTube to play some videos. It has rich bass and volume.Video-I played a video from my digital library, Amazon, YouTube and Vudu. Colors were nice and bright so no surprises thereS-pen-Although they were creative with the magnetic back storage, I wished it was like the phone and my old tablet with the S-pen stored inside. The pen itself is pleasantly thicker than anticipated. Samsung made a good move in matching the color of both the pen and tablet. There's a lot of features to learn if you care to. The included S-notes is a beast of a program, but you can also use other programs like OneNote.The only thing with the form of this tablet is it is long horizontally. So when holding that way it seems a bit long. I rather like the more square shape of my old tablet. There's a lot to learn about the features and youtube is a great tutor. Even just now typing this out one came to me with holding down the Ctrl key. It lights up the letters y, a, z, x, c and v which are shortcuts for specific functions. Very cool!When you get it, pay attention to the return policy and use it to death within that time frame. This is already long so I may update only if I come across an issue that impacts negatively.It is pricey, but it is a premium feature tablet. You can get cheaper with going with lesser specs.
