IS IT A LAPTOP? Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra REVIEW

Published 2023-11-05
I have had 2 months with the Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra. This is a device that is Ultra in every sense of the word. Big, grand and powerful, this device will expand how you see mobile technology.

    I love my S9 Ultra. In the past I had Tab S6 Lite and S8+. Now for the first time ever I'm completely happy with a tablet! The screen is definitely not too large, it's actually the minimum I would go now. Battery life is finally good without sacrificing any power. I had a great battery life on Tab S6 Lite but dear god, it was torture using it because of how weak it was. Now I have everything and more. To anyone doubting - go for it, I very much doubt you'll regreat it. There is nothing to dislike. The one single complaint I've read was that it has a notch. Come on! You don't see the notch when watching movies or TV shows, there are black bars at the top and bottom. It's amoled the black bars color is the same as the black notch, you couldn't see it even if you tried! When doing other stuff on the tablet it's not bothersome, it's too small to be a bother. iPhones have a larger notch right in their screen and that's on a tiny smartphone, not on the biggest tablet on the market! Seriously, just buy it, you absolutely won't regret it and if the notch is your main concern, I honestly think you're nitpicking and are not really even serious about tablets.

    i just got my tab s9 ultra today, and im so impressed by it! really needed one after having run my old 100 dollar tablet into the ground throughout 5 years xD i will say the audio demonstation you have in the video, does not do it justice, not even close, when i first put something on i literally was in disbelief on how such a big full and rich sound even quite decent bass could come out of something this thin, like from my limited knowledge of sound there needs to be space inside for the stuff to vibrate, but its so thin xD
  • DEX is really incredible. I just bought 2 days ago the Tab S9 ultra 5G 256GB ... and impatient to test it. You have a new subscriber 🙂I wonder if I will continue to use my Galaxy Book 3 360 Pro... Waiting for MS to sell Windows on ARM to 3rd parties, and get a SINGLE "All-in-One" ultra portable device for work.

    I have the Samsung tab s8 the smallest one due to weight and its incredible. The speaker is mind blowing
  • @silverxbladeX
    I have the S9 in the same color. The Ultra is far too big for me, but all the categories you spoke about in the video translate to the S9. I have MacBook as well and i haven't touched it in days.

    Can you use the ultra as a wired 2nd screen? Inonow wirelessly is possible but could be laggy. I want to use the utra as wired second screen for my pc or LG smartphone that was it's own version of Dex.

    Wish there was native 4k support for externals - but it works with multistar app. Best part of tablet is ability to hand markup drawings and documents in S Notes and Word. Keyboard with kickstand means it's a bit difficult as laptop. Media consumption is unparalleled. Thanks for your epic reviews and unique insights. Awesome channel 👏
  • I have one on order but I worry a bout lap-ability. The keyboard cover doesn’t seem like it will work well for that.

    Have had mine for a couple of months as well. As I'm planning to travel a lot in the coming months, I wanted something light, powerful and with great battery life that wasn't a Mac and that could provide entertainment and video editing capabilities on the go. So far it hasn't disappointed, except on the software side: Android has its own annoying limitations, and Lumafusion, while still being the best option right now and a very capable app, still misses some crucial features I wish it had. Hopefully Davinci Resolve will be ported one day.

    With that keyboard you have, it has a decaded DEX key right at the top of the board.❤
  • I love my galaxy tab s9 I was hoping to use this as somthing to practice drawing on digital arts
