BEST SMALL CHEAP TABLET? Galaxy Tab A9 vs Lenovo Tab M9 

I picked up the Samsung A9 2 days ago And I got impressed is an amazing tablet with a beautiful design and smoothness 🔥🙌🏻

Picked up the Lenovo 2 weeks ago for $130 CDN , couldn't be happier.

The best small cheap tablet is the friends we made along the way.

I love my Lenovo Tab M9 (4GB/64GB) for media consumption & work in Google Docs, Drive & Gmail. And I installed the _Shade Launcher_ which lets me to use the Discover Feed instead of the Entertainment Space. (I don't play games.)

Still waiting for the Tab A9 for the US. It's a big upgrade from the Tab A7 Lite (MediaTek Helio P22T to Helio G99)

Top video, I'm Brazilian and I understood it very well 👏🏼

The rear camera on the Lenovo gave me major 2010 vibes :D

Just FYI, the Lenovo does have a 4GB RAM /128 Memory option. Also normally I do feel like 1080 should at least be the bare minimum, but one a 9in screen these tabs are just fine. Any bigger like a M10 then yeah 1080 is a must.

I wish that Samsung would make a 8.7" S series tablet. Im willing to pay more for the Snapdragon.

I Norway I got the M9 for 100$. The A9 being a new model is at least 250$. For a non gamer I am very happy with the Lenovo over the Samsung when price is factored in.

Do you have a video comparing the A9 and the alldocube?

I have the Samsung A7 Lite LTE tablet and that tablet has 3 speakers and not just 2 like most youtubers claim. The front facing speaker for the phone is actually an Loudspeaker as well. So it has one down facing and one up facing speaker but also one front facing speaker. 3 speakers in total. The sound the Samsung A7 Lite has is day and night better that any other brands. Even outside in windy conditions I never had to turn up the speakers more that 50% to max 55%. In normal hearing conditions the speakers are turned up about 35%. The sound system on an tablet is by far the most important and on this one that is awesome. Actually in the A9 manual it says that the third front speaker exists only in the LTE model SM-X115. The front facing speaker does not show up at the non LTE (WiFi only) model X110. So watch for that. Things are a bit confusing about the 3rd speaker on the non LTE models. Is it there or not? On my A7 Lite SM-T225N model at least yes. My model has 3 speakers. The manual of the A7 Lite is just shit and not nowhere as good as the manual for the A9 tablets. At least the manual for the A9 tablet shows the front speaker only for the X115 model (it does not say SM-X115 only but it just mentions the front speaker for the SM-X115 model). So I guess the up price for the LTE models gives you an additional 3rd speaker for much much better sound. People easily will be lured into the buy of the non LTE models and may miss so the benefit of 3 speakers.

I think M9 is better for casual media consumption. It's on sale now for $89 at Lenovo so you can't go wrong. My Tab A is getting old now and apps freeze up or take a while to open so I need to update my tech.

Is it worth buying one of these tablets for use as book readers? Instead of buying a black and white kindle?

It was only £30 more to get the 8gb ram 128gb A9 here in UK for £161 delivered. Very Happy as a Media Player to have for inflight entertainment.

Does Samsung Tab A9 Wifi only (no sim card) have GPS module? How is the accuracy of location for Google Maps use?

Is browsing on the net (chrome etc) faster on A9 or M9 ?

Waiting for A9+.

i like that halo100 over there.😊

A Mediatek Helio G99 is not bad at all for a 150 USD 800 p tablet @ retail. Personally I prefer at least a 1080p or higher with a 10 in. or higher display but that's me. For someone looking for portability but with a larger display than a smartphone while still being "budget" the Samsung A9 might be the "sweet spot" .

The a9 design is impressive with g99 processor + decent 8.7 inch screen sizei would probably go with samsung a9

you can find the m9 sometimes on sale at best buy for 99 bucks this past week for the 32 meg version samsung a9 is the better tablet due to being new more powerful and having more memory and years of updates and also the smaller size makes it easier to use one handed

real improvements in the a9 are with the plus version only...

One thing I do like about recent lenovo devices after having owned a few of their older ones is that the version of android they are using is pretty close to pure android. Their older devices around the Tab 4 era were garbage though. I recently went from a Xiaomi phone to a Motorola G73 and I instantly felt happier in life due to the lack of bloat and other useless garbage the G73 didnt have compared to MiUi. A deal came up to pick up an M10 Plus with the SD860 chipset for cheap - I bought that.... I now need a smaller tablet to replace an old phone that i was using as a tablet thats coming to the the end of its life and the M9 was an easy choice given the clean stress free OS. Resolution is a little weak but. I only use it for youtube, light web browsing and listening to podcasts anyway. (im not a gamer) so the M9 will be more than fine.

I had my lenovo m9 for a long time and its pretty good

The tab A9 is replacing the Tab A7 lite and Tab A 8.0 ( 2019 )

Thank you

Would have liked to see the screen keyboard

Does the Samsung A9 8.7" have the Auto Wake Feature ?

For a kids tablet the M9 is a no brainer (About 130$ CAD right now)

What is the compatible bluetooth keyboard for samsung a9?

Hello there. Can you do emulation on this device, like ps2 and GameCube? Is the processor as powerful as the tiger T618?? Thanks in advance 👍🏻

Galaxy Tab a9 and Ipad Mini 6 comparison pleeaasee

Huawei MatePad Pro 13.2 HONOR Pad X9 👈 I love both of these models

Thanks

I have the Lenovo here and it’s actually pretty good. Light and airy - very quick and solid - with really good sound and great battery life. Probably the best small android tablet on the market right now,I think. Unquestionably better than the Samsung A 7 lite for sure. I was excited to see how the new A9 would be in comparison. However - I can’t seem to find this A9 anywhere. Not even in your link! Could it be that Samsung is not planning to release it here in America?

Can you put a sim card in either to make phone calls thanks..

I have both and the Lenovo M9 has a better set of speakers (very noticeable for me). The M9 has a screen color adjustment much better than the A9 as well. Samsung UI also makes the A9 seem slow versus the M9. Makes it seem like the M9 is faster even with the lower processor. However, I'll keep the A9 as the M9 only came with the 3/32 variant in our country vs. 4/64 on the Samsung A9. With Android 13, you're left with just around 10gb for apps and updates on the M9 so it's really just a streaming device at 32gb.

TN on the Samsung vs IPS on the Lenovo (NL) makes this a no brainer

After this comprision m9 best than a9 in your opinion? I want buy one version 64/4 and I'm confused

Does the Lenovo have floating windows?

I cant find the samsung anywhere here in the U.S.

CC is a must. The upspeak is horrible

A9 isn't distributed in USA.

I'm watching this on my Lenovo tab m9 it's 4gb ram 64 gb 😊

The A9 is more expensive I think? I got my 4 gb M9 for only 130 euros. Its not a fair comparison. You dont get the 8 gb A9 for that price.

1080p plus HDR10 is the minimum... Without HDR10... you can never experienced the best quality video coming out.

In Viet Nam, i can get Tab A9 for 89 USD, so definitely Tab A9 for sure.

I have the Tab A8 (2022) And I was thinking about the tab A9, is it worth it? Tab A8 is too big in my opinion.

The Tab A9 isn't available in North America yet, I don't think.

lenovo has IPS screen-- nicer than samsung

Its wierd, that M9 has better battery life, when in A9 is much newer processor 12nm (g80) vs 6nm (g99).

A9 has an update from android 13 to android 14

👍

m9 on sale this week for $79 at best buy...

a9 link doesnt work.

I bought and return the m9 in 5 minutes because it s a crappy tablet on the screen quality , u can see pixel everywhere

Samsung is better because they offer longer support but Lenovo offer only 3 years of support
