I had the S4 tab from SAMSUNG. Excellent as well, but compared to the S9, it resembles a turtle with a hare. There is also the AI of the S9 which alone is a game changer. Paradoxically, the S9 does not have NFC and its battery drains faster than expected. On the other hand, it loads (and charges) very quickly. For all its merits, it deserves 5 stars.
The tablet definitely "rocks." In the Android market, it's the best you can find, and as far as I know, it's the only one that is 5G (for those of us who need it). Its "drawback" is its annoying operating system, which is "closed" and requires you to have an account with Samsung in addition to your Google account for many important functions (updates, etc.). For those who are used to less intrusive brands, the experience is literally nerve-wracking. Because as a device it is a spaceship (screen, performance, capabilities, stylus, etc.), I only take away one star, but if you don't need its capabilities and you're not already in the Samsung ecosystem, it's better to avoid it.
Excellent tablet, ideal size in my opinion as the plus and ultra versions are huge and lose the portability value.
Positives:
- Solid construction, feels like you have a beast in your hands.
- Fingerprint sensor.
- Very fast in everything.
- Excellent battery.
- Speakers. Its biggest advantage in my opinion. The best sound I have heard on a portable device.
Negatives:
- Screen. For its price, it should have had QHD+ resolution.
- Solid, but with the case that you will surely put on it, it becomes quite heavy.
Personally, I consider it the top Android tablet at the moment in many aspects.
It is a very fast tablet with the best screen, in my opinion, that exists in a device of this type. Essentially, with the keyboard, it is a high-performance laptop. It is definitely worth buying.
Really, where to start with this particular tablet? In terms of performance, there is nothing better in the world of Android. Premium build quality, sturdy and waterproof. The screen is jaw-dropping. The sound is exceptional. It includes an S Pen with many capabilities and excellent responsiveness. The processor is capable with 12 GB of RAM and incredible software support from Samsung, it will last for many years. Definitely get a case. The camera is great. It is worth it and even though the price is a bit high, it will not disappoint anywhere, excellent implementation by Samsung.
Update: Today it was tested in the most difficult process it can do, editing and rendering 4K video. I added a 4K 60fps file, 4 minutes long, 2 GB in size. A few text cuts and additional voice, the final result was 1.5 GB at 4K 60fps again. The rendering was done quite quickly, everything I did was applied. Of course, during the rendering process, there was an increase in temperature, which is perfectly normal, but then it returned to normal. The tablet doesn't feel anything. Also, I would like to add that the battery life is quite good and the sound is impressive.
Update: Following tests with UHD files in editing, with a final result of a 1:37 video with a size of 216 MB, rendering was done in minimal time using only 50% of the processing power. I am attaching an image.
Update: Geekbench result.
Update: I combined it with the Samsung Trio 500 keyboard and the user experience improved significantly. Now, when typing, the virtual keyboard does not appear on the screen to hide it halfway, it has literally become a mini laptop with Dex. Of course, not all applications are optimized, but there are now quite a few and with Dex, the situation is somewhat salvaged. Needless to say, the S Pen is excellent.
In one month, problem with the screen. It doesn't show anything while the tablet is turned on. Warranty, packaging, and service. We shall see...
Update October 2nd 23: The motherboard and the screen are to blame. The motherboard has been replaced. We are still waiting for the screen. We shall see again. The update is flawless, however, from the official Service... I'll give it one star and we'll go with two!
