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

Gifted this. Cool

I bought this to replace a similar Galaxy Tab S4. Nothing wrong with the older tablet, just was ready to upgrade- five years of use and not a single problem with it! Anyway, there is almost no question the Tab S is the best Android tablet. The LED screens are just fantastic. This new model is even faster yet. 0.5" bigger screen (11" instead of 10.5") and almost the same size and weight. I got in on the deal that increased the memory and doubled the storage for no extra charge, so an astounding 12GB of memory and 256GB of storage- both way more than I will ever need. S-pen works very well. Sound is great (for a tablet). Love the new in-screen fingerprint sensor. Micro SD card slot works perfectly. The only thing I hate is that there is no headphone jack. Almost didn't buy it for that reason, alone. I hate using adapters/dongles. And to use a dongle means I have to pry out the magnetic USB charger connector I love, every time, which is very difficult to do and I will likely lose it because it is so small. There is ZERO reason to not include a headphone jack. There is plenty of space, and they make jacks that are just as water-resistant as the USB port. OK, I will stop with that rant. Oh, the price is crazy too. Most people simply will not spend this much on a tablet, opting for something like the "A" line instead. This model was $200 MORE than the crazy high price of my old S4, but the screen on the "S" is just so nice, so I just gotta have it :)

I wanted a good tablet in Samsung's premium lineup, and this earlier offering fit the desire for a brilliant amoled screen, fast processing, speedy refresh rate, superior build, long battery life, biometric fingerprint sensor, and overall elite essentials. The OS comes in Android 13, but graduates to 15 during setup. Five years of upcoming Samsung support is more than enough for me. The unit was suppose to come in a drab beige, but surprisingly, the tablet came in silver (which I was very glad for). I hate the fact that all great tablets come with inflated pricing but their makers know we will pay the price. Having said the latter, buying an earlier version is the way to go unless you won't settle for anything but the latest in Samsung's lineup. I highly recommend the s9 and give it a five star rating.

It was time to replace my S6. I didn't want to spend a lot of money on a tablet, but I also wanted to get something that was one of the latest versions of Samsung tablets. I do a lot of research before I buy something and as I was looking at the S10, the S9 kept popping up, so I would read the reviews. Everyone said it was the best samsung tablet. Its a little pricey, but I am so happy with my purchase! The S9 is an amazing tablet! For me, the size is perfect. I enjoy using my tablet when I travel. The picture is amazing! I was really surprised by the vibrant colors compared to other tablets. I was also surprised with the sound quality. Let's face it, tablets arent known to have good sound. With 4 speakers, the sound quality is excellent! I really liked that it comes with an "spen." My daughter enjoys drawing on it. It may not be the latest and newest tablet, but it is definitely the best tablet that samsung has out right now! If you prefer having a tablet, spend a little extra money and get the S9, its worth it!

Tablets and I typically don't get along, especially on the Android side of things, which is why my enthusiasm for this tablet has really caught me by surprise. I've owned a few Android tablets, an iPad Mini, and a little Surface tablet -- and mostly these experiences taught me that, just maybe, tablets aren't for me. I always missed having a cursor, or having a keyboard that wasn't a case, or, most of all, programs on my desktop (or even just my Chromebook). So I kind of turned my back on tablets for a while. I was using my two-in-one Samsung Chromebook 2 as a tablet, but the myriad of issues that have recently cropped up on that device made me want to try an actual tablet again. Enter the S9. I've loved this thing from the moment I unboxed it. Calling the color 'beige' almost seems like an insult; it's a nice, silvery white that really makes the device stand out, and the matching color of the S Pen is a nice touch. And the screen is absolutely gorgeous, I can't stop admiring it whenever I wake it up. The colors and brightness are really great, and you can fine tune the latter for your needs. I haven't tried using it in a full blast of sunlight, yet, but it's excelled everywhere else. Portability is a breeze since the S9 is so light. Even with the case I have for it, which adds a bit of heft, it's still much easier to carry around than my Chromebook. And the functionality! I have the Samsung Flip 5 and the Samsung Buds Live, and the S9 interfaces with both of them flawlessly. I can look at messages from my phone (and it also grabbed a bunch of info from it, saving me time) and listen to both my tablet and my phone on my Buds Live, among other things. Gone are the days that I need to pack a separate headset/earphones for my tablet and my phone. It's such a stream-lined setup, I love it. This is ordinarily where I would list all of my cons, but I don't have a lot, honestly. My only dissatisfaction is how expensive the S9's Samsung accessories are (how much for the covers? oof!), and how limited, but maybe more will spring up in time. I used to dislike how limited apps were on Android tablets, but now you can get a huge plethora of apps that connect to your destktop versions. It really just depends on what you use and how you work. So, yeah. I love this thing, as you can tell. I've written this review on it, even. If you need a tablet spruce-up in your life, and you own some other Samsung products, I recommend this one.

I bought my tablet used around 9 months ago. I’ve had no problems with it and it arrived in very good condition. I got it for college for notes and to work on assignments on. I’m majoring in electrical engineering so I have a lot of math I need to do and compared to doing everything on paper it’s way better to do on my tablet. No regrets on buying it. The screen size is good and the display is too.
