Samsung made some very important updates with the Tab S9 - which make it meaningfully better than the Tab S8. But having said that… is the Tab S9 worth the price difference? Let’s talk about it.

Would love to see a battery drain test of the Tab s9 line up like you did on the s8 to see if the battery has improved with the new chip 😊
I had a Tab A8 as my first android tablet for 2 weeks I was very excited about it i got it from my local pawn shop for $80 NIB and i started to get irritated with the lag so i was walking in my local pawnshop again lol and found a tab S8 256gb 390$ traded the A8 got a huge discount 240$ only thing I needed was a type C cable and it came with a 45w fast charger and im loving it so for only one day use but i do love your videos and the tab s9
I just got the s8. No REGRETS!!!! Only thing gone happen is the s10 come out. People gone do the same thing s9 is trash s10 better it lets you go to the moon
😂
How’s your experience so far?
@therightchoice8292 so far it's great. I have no problems playing games. That all I use it for.
@@y2krandom763 ty
i just can't give up oled
Having an ipad as my first tablet, I can say it was great. It was big (at that time) I had the ipad 6th gen 😅 and then my first android tablet is the tab S9 plus. And I am obsessed with it. It's very thin. Comes with a slim keyboard for free and plus, I don't need to buy a separate pen for it. This is a great device. Great job Samsung. ❤
Thank you so much for sharing your tablet journey with the community. I’m so glad you love your device!! Thank you for being part of the channel!
@TechGearTalk I love watching your videos, comparisons, and such. They are very informative 👍 and very consumer friendly. Thank you for doing this for us 💜
How I feel with the 9.7" iPad from 2017 and the galaxy s2 I got the year before that lmao. Size of galaxy is much better and lighter, but preferred the graphics and durability of the iPad. However, I'm interested in trading the galaxy tablet in right now. I'll keep using iPad till it gives out.
Could you make a comparison video between the Tab S9 and Tab S6. Tab 7-8 were downgraded to lcd's so it'd be interesting to see two similarish specked (for their time) Oled tablets versus each other.
Great video as always. I'm very tempted to upgrade due to the trade in value of the Tab S8. They are offering $500 for the Tab S8 so I could get the Tab S9, with the silm keyboad cover for $299 after trade in. The only problem is my Tab S8 is still running great and I just picked up the Book Cover. Decisions, decisions! Just checked Best Buy and the are offering $550 for the Tab S trade in but no Slim Keyboard cover. I could walk out th door, after tax with the Tab S9 for $299.00. Oh this is tough.
That is a tough choice…
if you have an edu discount they do storage upgrade and free slim keyboard cover but one thing though this is probably a bad idea but it was weird like one time they actually gave me $140 credit (towards next purchase) because I didn't take the free buds promo along with the tablet so I am trying to do the same with this but not sure if it will work lol
@@TechGearTalk Ok, I finally pulled the trigger. Best Buy sweetened the deal. 12GB of Ram, 256GB of storage, after my S8 trade in, $297, and that includes tax. I couldn't pass it up.
The samsung website gave me $700 credit for my s8 last week. Always wait 1 or 2 months after release for better trade in credit. Love my s9 plus!
@@1LifeAdvs I saw that before I did my trade in but I wanted the smaller form factor. Awesome buy though!
I returned my tab s8 due to a defect and got the tab s9 instead and I don't regret it one bit. The reduced s pen latency is noticeably better and the AMOLED display is great especially while using the eye comfort shield at night.the extra year of software update is also great to have.Great video as always. Cheers from India.
The Tab S9 is better. If you're looking at the Tab S8, I would just save up money for the Tab S9. That screen is just much better and you'll get longer update support.
Thank you for contributing to the community.
Depends. The LCD display is still 120Hz and is a lovely panel. Also it doesn't suffer from burn-in, there is no jelly scroll and the battery lasts longer. So there are pros and cons to both, arguably more pros to the LCD.
@@adamski101LCD typically consumes more battery than OLED.
Also imo OLED is so much better and burn ins actually are not such a big deal anymore.
You could say that the LCD is sharper since the Pentile Matrix is less sharp on OLED.
AMOLED displays only use less energy if the entire screen is black and thus the LEDs are powered off. Even using dark mode doesn't render them as efficient as a LCD display. Besides, the proof is in the pudding. My 11" Tab S7 with 2.5 year old battery gives me 1.5 to 2 hours more SOT than my brand new 11" Tab S9. Same settings, same usage pattern. The battery life is massively disappointing.
AMOLED shines when watching content in dim lighting conditions. LCD is fine during the day.
I bought an S9 Ultra, and it is fantastic. I really love your videos
Amazing!! Congrats!!! Thank you for the kind words 🙏🏻
Then why are u watching this video
@@crazyking.007they love his videos
Is the blue wallpaper (in thumbnail) a default one? It looks really nice - you know where I can get it?
I think both are solid deals. If you are willing to spend more, I think it's worth it. But still S8 is also good. Depend on what you are using it for. I personally like gen 2 chipset, and a larger display. It's more helpful for multitasking, dex mode. And on screen fingerprint is not necessary, but it's another advantage.. Thank you for the video
I just got samsung s9.. im really dissapointed with its battery watching movies.. it cant last 10h Which it should by today. A 10.000+ mah battery had been better.. 8.400 mah is just not big enough to satisfy me on long plane rides.
However the screen look amazing and the 11" is perfect size for small spaces like inside a plane.
Reaction time is great. Opening and closing tabs.
The sound is amazing and go pretty loud watching movies.
Just wish the battery had been bigger. But nothing i cant fix with a powerbank
Not sure if i missed it, but does the S9 have HDR10 compatibility (for Netflix etc).
Thanks for the great in-depth reviews.
Yes it supports HDR 10bit
Yes.
So the thing is I realized I think oled screen is good if you are watching movies but the problem with it is if you are studying on a something that is static like notes on paper then you might get motion sickness or headaches because of the pwm. It's like if you are on a boat you get motion sickness because my theory is something is constantly moving while it should be static like the floor for example so your mind can't handle it and then that's when the headaches start. you can see the pwm when you turn on the tablet and then wait a while when the screen is dim and then view it from a phone camera
Please a full comparison between the Tab S9 Ultra and the iPad Pro M2, I'll be waiting for that battle!
Coming soon
me watching s9 vs s8, then s8 vs s7 n then s7 vs s6 lite.. And Finally I can afford none😅
Hope you at least enjoyed the videos.
Me too.😂
i just used my s8+ on my vacation international trip and we loved it
So glad you love it!
Bought the s9+ over no_tablet. It works great, the multitasking is amazing. The battery is average but I already start to hate the size, not to mention its weight, with the smart cover case...it makes it so much heavier.
I was in same situation, I thought the size was good but as I traveled with it. It was way to big to carry around. S9 was and is a better fit
I appreciate you sharing with the community!
Exactly why I bought the normal S9, perfect size
I travel too but I'm still able to use the tab S9 ultra with no problems so I don't understand why you're having issues with the S9 Plus.
@@thomassankara2857 not everyone needs an s9 plus or ultra. S9 is perfectly suitable for someone that wants to minimize space and still get great performance. Why would anyone get an ultra or plus ? Same question can be asked
Hi! I wanted to express my appreciation for your incredibly helpful video reviews and guides- they're a lifesaver for someone like me who isn't very tech-savvy! :>> But, I need more of your insights lmao. I badly need a tablet for my college education rn, do you think S7 FE is still worth it to buy this 2023?
One of the comments here says that S9 FE is rumored to be released later this year. So, I'm torn between making the purchase now or holding out for potential releases (even though I lowkey need it asap for my Chem + Anatomy + Bio classes), especially considering that I'm striving for the best value for my limited funds since I'm a financially strapped student relying on scholarships. Also, my goal is to invest in a tablet that will see me through med school, so I'm contemplating if S7 FE is still a viable option for purchase in late 2023.
Any insights or advice you can provide would be immensely valuable. Thanks a bunch!
If you're in samsung ecosystem and note suites, then yeah, it could be worth buying, but unless it's under 300$. Also you need to consider Wi-Fi only Version as it will get better silicon
Hi!
I wanted to ask you if is it worth going for the S9 over the S8.
It's my first tablet , i'm going for Samsung tablets since I'm a faithful Galaxy S line user .
I wanted something mainly for note taking and basic usage ( Maybe some movies or gaming ) that could last the 5 Medschool years remaining.
Since the economic factor is influent , the S8 sits at 550€ and the S9 at 700€ .
Is it worth it to put 150€ more just for the new tablet? Could the S8 fulfill my needs and keep up with the pace for at least 5 years?
Thanks in advance.
What did you get? Im a med student too and confused if S8 will last me for at least 3 years
@@therightchoice8292 Nothing yet, I have chosen s9 base model over s8 base model because of how improved is the new model, whenever there's gonna be a price drop or a good deal I'll get that
If you're up to consider the plus model 12,4inch maybe the S8+ is the better choice for the price in my opinion
Also , Merry Xmas 🎄
hi bro, i just ordered xreal air 2 AR glasses and it's coming next month, it is best compatible with samsung dex, ipad and mobiles with v3.0 and above version of type c port . can u suggest best budget friendly ipad/tab/mobile or any other device that can support xreal air 2 ar glasses external display. PLEASE REPLY
Bro could you please make a video on "" is Samsung s7+ tablet worthy till now ""
Does the tab s7 12/512 4g worthy to by in 2023 for 350 dollars?
I'm really struggling to find the most suitable ipad for me. Can you please suggest me one? Here are my priority list
1. Low budget (as much as possible)
2. Fast working
3. big screen( because I'll mostly do online classes and take notes)
4. Battery capacity and storage ( again because of long time classes and to keep all notes)
5. Camera ( a plus point but not a priority)
Thanks in advance
Display and processor make real difference. Sd 8gen 1 has heating problems.
Nice video! Very informative! I am receiving this Galaxy Tab S9 as a birthday gift in a few days. Super excited. Never had a Galaxy Tab.
So, I noticed while looking online at all the features it says:
******Must have a WI-FI 6E router. NOT INCLUDED.
I don't have one and may not have one anytime soon since none of my other devices are compatible with such an advanced WI-FI and the routers not inexpensive.
So my question is will I still be able to access any WI-FI available at home, on campus, at Starbucks, etc that's below 6 or 6E for doing simple things (Netflix, emails, CZcams, Browsing, etc) until I can actually get a Wi-fi 6E router one day in the future.
Hope my question makes sense.😊
I think that probably meant if you want wifi6 speeds you will need a wifi6 router. You should be fine, don't worry.
It’ll work fine with your current router. You only need a Wifi6e router to get those speeds. Hope that helps.
Thank you so much for your help! This answers my question perfectly! Glad to have a device that's technological abilities are a little more advanced for me at this moment because a year or two from now I imagine my Galaxy S9 with still feel pretty brand new with all it's awesome features! Everyone who has an S9 seems to be absolutely crazy about it (especially the gamers 😉). I'm also glad to see more positive reviews now on the 11". I love this smaller size for me with it's portability. The Plus+ (and especially the Ultra) is too big for my needs.
Anyway, thanks again. I appreciate your help and support! 😊
Do we get option to Backup to Cloud like in S23 Phone
Setting/General/Reset/Temporary Cloud Backup on both Tablets ?
With the trade-in program, I only spent just over $200 for the new Tab S9, also got the keyboard cover for free...
Great video!
Wow great deal. Thank you for the kind words.
The keyboard cover should he free anyways. If isnt that great. I got the one for the tab s8 ultra for free and just like all the reviews says on the site it in does have connectivity issues. It isn't worth $200-300 until they fix that issue.
Just traded in my tab s8 only paid $165 after tax using Rakuten referral bonus
Watching this s9 on my s8.
S8 is still fire
Does s9 have palm rejection? Is it good for notes taking?
does the ability to charge the s-pen one way work like would it matter if someone can charge s-pen both ways or the one way?
I just bought S9 few days ago. Then just now i read that S9 FE gonna have AMOLED display too, plus having 2 more colors mint and lavender. I want that mint color so bad now 😂💔
What do you plan on doing?
It will have a bigger battery too. Shame the regular Tab S colours are so boring this year.
I can't find any source that says that it has OLED and I really doubt it will have since it's the biggest cost factor even tho they will use an own exynos processor. If they make it 600€+ it is possible but most people would buy the FE then.
Wouldn't be clever by Samsung.
Fe is available.. LCD display 90hz.
Don't get fe it has the problematic Exynos chip... choose functionality ( s9) above aesthetics ( s9 fe )
I only need it to use Excel sheets, WhatsApp, & Gmail & Keep my Note 9 phone for just Calls
Please suggest which would be best for me
Where did you get that wallpaper?
Bro please tell me where do u get these wallapaers from
s8 was super laggy for me in many apps like artrage if i was drawing with big brushes. s9 seems soooo much smoother.
Which one is better for graphic designing?
I wanna use it for just watching video and studying so what should i get
Do you guys think it's a good deal to get the 256gb S9 for 370 dollars (tax included) with the trade in program, giving my S8 256gb tablet? Or should I wait for Black Friday and Cyber Monday.
Might as well wait cause you can still trade later
How can I get the wallpaper on the screen of the tablet?
I bought the tab s8 plus, and i love it, but is there a spare for S pen tip?
I don’t remember - I’ll check my packaging when back in the studio.
Great comparison, thanks! That S9 is a very nice device but I'm hip deep in Apple stuff happy with what I have.
There’s no getting out!!!
Just bought the S8 Ultra. $470 got me the 128gb model (refurbished, good), brand new S Pen (official Samsung one), Samsung's official fast charge brick, and what appears to be a generic cable.
Loving it so far. Paid less than half of what a new S9 Ultra costs, and it came with a brick that a new one wouldn't.
Wow - you got such a great deal. CONGRATS!!! Thank you for being part of the channel!
My video stutters/motion is not very smooth when watching higher res videos on CZcams or Netflix, is this normal?
Hey Ross, long time what's going on man in your Channel?
Thanks for checking in!!! It’s been quite a journey.
Just bought a 2nd hand samsung S8 for $520 aus. Pretty happy with the price considering its cheaper than the galaxy s9 fe and comes with case and screen protector
How’s your experience so far?
In terms of the AI tools out there, and the ones which might come out in the near future, which one of the two would be a better choice to go with for a better output?
For AI - that Tab S9 is the better option. Hope that helps.
What would you say compares better between S8 and S9FE+? They're the same price now.
s8 is superior, the screen has faster refresh rate, and it is adaptive refresh rate, tab s8 has better chip set which is more future proofing the LCD of the tab s8 has higher quality and do not have the weird sheen when you look at it in an angle. better stereo speaker (4 speaker on tab s8).
Could you add the tab s8 into the battery test. Curious if the tab s9 is that much more efficitent
I’ll do my best!
The Tab S9 11" has shorter battery life than the 11" S7 and S8. Sadly that's the price of an AMOLED display.
I get approx 1.5hrs less SOT on my new S9 than my 2.5 year old Tab S7.

got $358 for s8 8+128. quite a good deal considering the launch price
I have an s8 and looked that the samsung store was selling the cover of the s9 at a very cheap price but didn't know if cutting a little the whole of the camera module will work to fit the cover in my s8 tab. Have someone tried this? Hahahha
Aha! Since the Galaxy Tab S9 lacked the ultra wide camera lens,
It's time to wait for the new M-Series variant of the iPad Mini to come with the same processing as the iPad Pro, USB-C with support for Thunderbolt/USB 4, built-in Smart Connector (for supporting Magic Keyboard and Smart Keyboard), Face ID access enabled by TrueDepth Camera, and ProMotion technology (120hz variable refresh rate).
Bro why do you even care about cameras in a tablet? A phone or a dedicated camera is better
Now i can't relate to one of those tablets because i have a tab a8, but if i needed to pick on or buy one, i would personally pick the tab s9, but this is my opinion not urs so if u have a tab s8 its no problem its ur opinion.
iPad Air 5 vs s9 will you make because air 6 is really soon gonna launch
I’ll do both
when air 6 is gonna launch ? Any idea
It's gonna launch in the September or the October event this year
The S8 Ultra is awesome. It has the same display as the S9, S9+ and S9 Ultra, so it’s been awesome for me
What EXACTLY do you mean that S8 Ultra has the same display? I thought the displays on S9 had been upgraded to a newer version?
so would S8+ be better than S9 if you just want to use it for taking notes?
It would pretty much come down to the larger size vs ip68, more powerful and efficient chip (maybe less important to you), an additional year of updates. Hope that helps.
So I skipped the tab s8 and stayed with my tab s7, is the 9 worth the investment if the 7 is still working?
I was thinking about buying tab S7 plus as it is cheaper now , will it be worth it?
Here’s how i look at it. if you need something now, get it now. If you can wait, always wait. You’ll end up getting something better for the same price or the same thing for a lower price. Hope that helps.
Can you store apps on the SD card? In samsung S series phones you can't right?
Yes, you can store almost every app on the card!
@@TechGearTalk I think this became possible with newer Android version
Can somebody please tell me if the latency difference in the Tab s8 and s9 is a lot? I'm planning the s8 but a lot of my work involves writing and using the S Pen so please let me know.

In Slovenia the S9 is 909€ and the S8 is 499€... The decision is quite obvious... even though that S9 screen is awesome.
Thank for the info! Yeah, for almost half the price…

There's a defect on my Tab S8 in which my s pen won't charge on the back of the tablet unless I press really hard on the screen but if I let go it just won't charge again. Samsung won't take it back and I really want the Tab S9 but just don't have the money. sighhh
Can you trade it in?
@@Forevagabby costs too much, I don't want to spend more money
@@FooksTechnology ohh
I have the tab s8 and the s9 has that new snapdragon and the gen 2 makes a huge difference
@fortherun6520 I have the tab s8 and if I were you buy the 256 tab s9. Gen 2 snapdragon is amazing I know due to my s23 ultra
Its all a scheme. They already have the best quality tech. They just release it in phases to keep customers hooked. Like Apple. It's a marketing strategy. Don't waste your money if you already have a previous gen. The s8 ultra is perfect. In 2 years they'll release a new gen model.
the thing is I think the s9's finally don't really have anything wrong with them because they may have fixed the chips issue and also even waterproofing is somewhat useful but it depends on a person's usage and s8 is pretty much fine for most people since they don't really do extensive games and I don't either
