    The Galaxy Tab S9 FE is a great tablet at a great price, or at least that's what I thought 6 months ago. But has it stood the test of time with new competition out there? And what did you guys say in the comments?

    As beautiful as OLEDs look, one important thing to keep in mind about them is PWM, which can trigger headaches and migraines in people. Having good LCD options is still very much a necessity until OLEDs flicker issues are properly fixed. LCD panels have also improved and can be incredible quality too. I have a legion pro laptop and a legion go, and the LCD panels are so beautiful, even if the colours lack the same punch as OLED panels. Just something to be mindful of!

    I just got the FE+ a month or two ago and I friggen love it!
    I bought a Creator Edition Pen to go with it, and... I had the same issue Mr. Colbow had where the pen would register an input before it even hit the screen. That really frustrated me, lol.
    After trying a bunch of "fixes" I read around the internet, I just let it sit overnight and...it actually worked fine, then! I LOVE drawing with this thing now, which is strange since I think I still prefer drawing on an old Intuos rather than a screen, but it just feels good! Infinite Painter for 10 bucks/one-time payment is really nice, too.
    I really don't like the regular S-pen with the rubber tip. I just could NOT get used to it when messing with one on my old S6 lite.

      ​@shreyaskhobragade8501 Well, it really depends on what you want to use the tab for. If you only do notetaking 8GB is more than enough. Even if you only use it for media consumption or drawing 8GB is totally fine. If you like multitasking 12 GB can be nice, but it's definitely not needed. Atleast that's my experience ^^

  • @CanineWild
    @CanineWild Před 2 měsíci +41

    I bought one about a month ago (partially on your recommendation - thanks!) and I love it. I honestly don't use it much for non-drawing purposes, so I can't speak for that, but after trying a few apps, I liked Infinite Painter, paid for the full version, and everythings fantastic. As someone just getting started with digital art from traditional, I found the transition waaaay better than my brief attempts with unscreened drawing tablets, which I just couldn't get used to.
    My only (v small) complaint would be that drawing does seem to drain the battery faster than I'd expected, but since I tend to get into the zone and draw for many hours in a row, it's not really a problem to have to give it a charge every night to top it up.
    Still, 10/10 would recommend!

    I bought my Tab S9 FE at the same time as I bought my S23 FE (it was time to upgrade my phone and tablet so I got it out the way while both were having good sales)
    I'm extremely happy with both a few months in. The Tab S9 FE will probably slow down in a few years time at most but that's probably when I'll upgrade anyway and as of right now I love the display (it may not be OLED but it is an EXCEPTIONAL LCD displa), the speakers sound great despite not being quad, it runs everything I need to quickly and of course the S-Pen is still amazing.

    Finally just ordered one. My Lenovo Tab 11 Plus is still running great, but only has 4GB and with larger drawings I can notice the slowdown. I've looked at the newer Lenovo P12 or P11 Pro Gen2, but they've changed the pens from AES2 to MPP2 protocol and I really don't want those. They've got wobble. It's a step down. An older TAB S7 or S8 could be an option, but since the S9 FE with 8GB memory and 256GB storage was on sale at one store for less than a used/refurbished older model, I decided to go the S9 FE. Just ordered it on Brad's recommendation 🙂 For me the pen is more important than the cpu/gpu. I don't have an issue with a TFT screen, my current one has it too and it's beautiful. Can't wait until it arrives.

    • @claepacitor
      @claepacitor Před 26 dny

      @@AlexTraynor-xk7hs mostly yes, if at least because S9 FE+ inherently has larger storage space and RAM. I use CSP EX, and from my experience, some functionalities were slow af while using S6 Lite (the most glaring for me being loading and importing textured brush can take forever to the point of triggering ANR, and I couldn't open comic workfiles with a lot of pages).
      Not to say S9 FE+ is perfect, but it's much of an improvement of experience. Loading and importing brushes are much quicker and do not cause the app to slow down for the most part. There are still slowdowns and lag, especially when using a lot of 3D models in larger canvas, but nowhere as severe as it was while I was using S6 Lite.
      I do light gaming too (Another Eden, Limbus Company, SaGa Scarlet Grace, Ex Astris, Love&Deepspace), and overall S9 FE+ is pleasant experience. I used to be unable to do battles in Limbus at all on S6 Lite (I'm cross-playing with PC version), and for AE I had to turn on the eco-mode (in-game mode that reduces visual effects and framerate to save battery) to prevent ANR. It no longer is the case with my S9 FE+. It can run Ex Astris no problem even at highest graphics setting.
      If there's one downgrade that I feel, though, is that for whatever reason my S9 FE+ doesn't always register my finger gestures even with sensitivity enhanced. I noticed that often times when using redo gesture (3-finger tap), it registers only 2 fingers (undo) even when I try to tap with more force. Another reddit user I talked to apparently encounters similar case, but I'm not sure whether this is isolated or not. It's annoying, but otherwise mitigable.

    Really great and honest review, you managed to say pretty much all the pros and cons of this amazing device and also to debunk misinformation about it, such as its alleged inability to run Dex or the impossibility to use it as a 2nd display. Its limitations are mostly due to the Exynos chipset, BUT imo people who seek for power in a tablet are just looking for the wrong kind of device: if you need a powerhouse then get a PC, if you need a gaming device then get a Switch etc... Instead, this product is just fine for note taking, drawing, watching multimedia contents, read stuff, browsing etc... The S Pen is just great while Dex is so underrated. The only detail that disappoints me about this device is the same that affects all Samsung devices: they are all overpriced imo and so are their official accessories. I almost fainted looking at the prices of its original keyboard and cover.

Also take in mind pad 6 only uses their gen2 pen and overtime they will discontinue some of the products while samsung is compatible with lots of pen (I recommend staedtler if you're not gonna use spen) and you can replace different types of nibs depending on what you like while gen2 from xiaomi doesn't

    The Galaxy ecosystem is the best Apple alternative and the most seamless on the android side of things so the S9 Fe holds a lot of value being able to integrate into that ecosystem

    I have the Tab S9 but bought my wife the Tab S9 FE. It is a great value and has the festures most people want. The display is quite good, and I find it has less eye strain than the OLED on the S9. No video out is a limitation, but the processor speed is good enough. We looked at the Tab S8, but the keyboards for the Tab S9 also work on the Tab S9 FE. We traded in the Tab S 6 Lite for the Tab S9 FE, and find the Tab S9 FE much better and faster.

    Agree on the OLED vs LCD discussion. I've seen very bad OLED panel - such as the Lenovo Duet 3 tablet. That screen was so bad (poor contrast, had a bad yellowish tint, etc) - I returned it back to the store the next day. A MacBook with a Retina Display (LCD panel) blows away pretty much any OLED tablets IMO....and I'm an Apple hater because I use Android and Windows.

    • @TheLonelyMoon
      @TheLonelyMoon Před 2 měsíci

      ​@pu11.__23 If media consumption is your priority, then consider S9 FE. the aspect ratio is way better for movies and CZcams. if you want gaming, I'd say go with iPad air. M1 performs better. If you want note taking, both will do just fine. my favorite note-taking app is Noteful, but there are plenty of alternatives for android. If you want to draw, it's up to you. I love Procreate, but CSP feels like home since I've been using it for years. I love how long apple pencils are. They hold like an actual pencil. S pens are small, fine for note taking, save for creator pen if you're gonna draw, unless you have a wacom stylus. if you're only gonna do note-taking, then yeah, cheap pens will do fine. do keep in mind that only apple pencils have pressure sensitivity

    i watched a bunch of reviews for this tablet before getting it about 4 months ago. i was so happy with the device, however i've been unlucky and i got one that randomly reboots, then replaced it and the next one also randomly reboots, just not as often. i didn't see anyone mention this in review comments so i thought i'd say something just to give a heads up. i've found a few other people online who've had the same issue with the S9 FE so it's not completely isolated.
    i haven't yet decided what i'm going to do because i'd rather not go down to the A9 and the S9 is a large price jump, but i'm also not sure about replacing this S9 FE again in case i get one that's worse again.
