DON'T BUY an iPad! 10 ways the Tab S9 Ultra is BETTER! 

I have both. Tab is a better choice

I agree that the Samsung is great value for money. It’s not necessary to pick the Ultra. I have the “regular” Samsung Tab S9 and it has a fantastic OLED screen and microSD expansion.

Really happy to watch you having the Samsung's Ecosystem... One day sure, Sure one day ;) 💙

Im typing this comment on a s9 ulta and i can confirm everything he says

I have s24 ultra galaxy book pro 2 360 and samsung tv and samsung wash ans dry clothes.......when i tell you samsung eco is PHENOMINAL..........holy jesus i literally feel like batman living in the batcave the ability to do ANYTHING in your house without having to lift the tv remote or walking to turn on or off the washing machcine for clothes is just AWSOME also even if im not home i still get notifications on whats going on at home when dishs are done or clothes, i get notifications on my tv in case my phone is dead or not around to let me know when i have to go get the clothes or do the dishea

I just got this yesterday. The only thing that sucks is the Facebook app doesn't work well on it. I deleted it and just use the desktop version, so it's all good. I used to be a die-hard iPad Pro fan, and they finally came out with a great screen this time, but the price for the tablet got crazy high. I thought about getting it, and I still want it, but I'm cool with saving my money. I don't really use all the power it has for the price I'd have to pay. Plus, I prefer Samsung phones, so I'm already used to their stuff. Good review.

Just switched to Android with the Galaxy S24 ultra, and it's amazing so far. Might get this tablet as a laptop replacement, cus my Laptop is too thick to move around and really hot. (also i love the s-pen)

I switched from iPad Pro 2020 the only thing I miss is ARkit Tools no regrets it all using Tab S9 Ultra daily for - collage I can sync my lectures and homeworks between, phone and laptop is a god sent, no icloud storage crap - Emulation I have 230gb of games in the SD card, PS1, PS2, PSP, PSV, Switch, Mobox - Universal clipboard copy paste cross my phone and laptop - True file manager, the iPad one is hell to use buggy - Real Multi-tasking (multi-Star module will make even better) I was scared about the big size I got used to it tho, I can't carry it in a small bag sadly, you can get the small S9 and you will do 100% of what I said above. - I'm still mad that I still didn't get OneUI 6.0 update, but I installed it manually - The smart keyboard case is expensive and out of stock for months, and doesn't support my language - The notch isn't annoying if use the table the right way, but when you want to use it for drawing with case stand to get lower angle the notch at the bottom is bad

I have the tab s9+ and ipad pro for work. I much prefer using the s9+ especially for notes withh spen..

DISAPPOINTMENTS WITH TAB S9 ULTRA 5G ::::::: The keyboard for 5G variant (not that I tried other variants), very weird! ::: Right-click browser inconsistency (sometimes doesn't show right-click options and just stare blankly) ::: Powerpoint in Cloud doesn't work (slides can't animate-> whatever animation uploaded will be gone, need to download and edit in other apps), ::: WPS office can't hyperlink, and ::: Showing on-screen keyboard with physical keyboard eventhough "show on screen keyboard is disabled" ::: Can't drag some picture, "format not supported" to ppt documents ::: Out of the blue can't create folders when you need it, "error try again" ::: OfficeSuite can't insert animation ::: The trackpad and keyboard shut down in the middle of work, need to press any key (except trackpad) to work ::: Can't drag images from Samsung Internet to drive ::: Webpages refresh when pop up windows resized, annulling input logins or data ::: The physical Keyboard disconnected, redo login (Etoro) ::: RU-vid paused on pop-up window, resumed on audio but not video ::: pop-up window overdragged stuck on the edge and is hard to retrieve especially with side gestures navigations on; needing precise maneuvre to trigger snapping to the side ::: Apps often "refresh" for no reason when trackpad is turned on with Bluetooth mouse (Canva, Sheet , Nexomon, etc) losing progress :::

You should do a quick video about how to use a samsung 24/23 during the solar eclipse. What camera modes work best for example.

Nice review keep up the good work

Is it possible to use liquid text on tab s9?

A month later, watching this a day after the Apple event, we can both agree the new M4 iPad Pro has dwarfed all the reasons u gave to ditch the new iPad for the s9 ultra. From the Tandom Oled to the new and improved Apple Pencil, not forgetting the new keyboard and most important thinner and light weight than ever. The M4 iPad Pro is the Godzilla of tablets.

Great point about the ecosystem working with others, making it actually a superior option.

I have both and I gotta say I pick the Tab way more than the iPad. There's more to do on Tab where my iPad sort of feels like an expensive paperweight.

I had the ipad Pro 12.9 6th Gen and had a whole month comparing the 2 and I ended up staying with the Ultra and selling the Pro...They both great devices but the screen of the ultra and the fact that it has an SD card slot was the main reason I decided to sell the ipad Pro! Knowing me I prob end up getting the new ipad pro but in 11" with the oled screen cause I still love using ipad apps as it's fully optimized for the ipad but other than that the Ultra kicks ass watching movies, videos etc

I'd get a Samsung s9 ultra in a heartbeat. But it's not that simple. I mainly work in vector based apps such as Fresco, Illustrator and Affinity Designer. Android doesn't have a dedicated vector app, or any vector app apart from Concepts 2024 which isn't quite optimised vector. Another thing that I don't like on the Samsung is the palm rejection. I've noticed people wearing a glove or drawing without resting your palm which is un natural. iPad palm rejection with the pencil seems to be the way to go for artists IMO.

Do you know if its possible to Hide the Notch on films and RU-vid etc?

My 2nd Gen S6 lite is still perfect for RU-vid, music and social media. Have the phone for going out and about and gaming PC for everything else.

I watched so many videos this is the only one that actually feels like going to Vodafone in person for advice and I don’t have the time or energy to do that as a Mom 💟 Thankyou!

Ppl like certain OS’s. No matter who reviews either tablet, someone is still gonna like either or

I have a Samsung s9 plus but still need an iPad to run some of my regular use apps .App developers make apps to a lower standard for android so they can run on any device

Bye bye iPad hello Samsung s9 ultra

Nice to know.

I have one, but im struggling to see what tablets are for when you have a laptop and desktop. I don't want a laptop replacement, and it is too much. But i do agree with wasting money on an iPad, and the entry-level iPads have 95% of the functionality of the iPad Pro, which is twice the money!

The only issue that would keep me from buying a Samsung tablet is their warranty support.. There isn’t any!! If anything goes wrong with that tablet.. good luck getting any warranty support..

Yup. Best purchase of a piece of tech I ever made.

I like its size, my iPad 12.9 has the same width but Ultra has extra length which is for better video entertainment

Got ipad 10th gen. Used to have samsung but their oled screens give me headache because of the pwm they use to adjust brightness

I’m thinking of selling my M1 IPad to get the new M3 iPad Pro

I have both, tab far more flexible than ipad. Ipad is good for extention for mac and if you just do 1 think.

I need this 😮

Totally unbiased comparison as you have a shelf of everything Samsungs ever made behind you.

I find amusement in the existing tab s9 ultra owners coming here likely hoping to confirm they made the right choice. I do agree the tab s9 is likely tbe superior choice for most use caees in terms of media consumption and traditional productivity use cases. As a musician, I find it utterly useless for my needs, but were i simply looking for rhe most premium tablet for watching netflix, playing games, and basic productivity, I'd likely turn to this.

I also have both however, the tab is lacking 5g so my iPad pro gets more play.

For a grand I'd rather have a surface which the new ones are coming out next month, I hear.

I agree that Samsungs tablets are good value. I love Apple and my Mac, but don't always agree on their product strategy. In Denmark where I live, I was able to buy an Tab S9 Ultra with 5G in a deal where I got a free Samsung keyboard and note cover for 1/2 the price of the iPad Pro 13 inch. With the incl. S-Pen this is amazing value.

In my opinion, the biggest problem with the Android tablets is the screen ratio. I bought a OnePlus Pad some time ago, where it is really good with 7: 5.

Doesn't have something like Pro Create. I think this keeps some users to ipad

cant do dex in second screen when u r on dex - dex to sex not working?

If im just going to spend a same amount of money ill just get an ipad more beneficial to me since i had macbook and iphone

Guys, I cant decide, I want a tablet for school and Im between IPad Air n the tab S9 I have iphone with airpods, i will have problems to share files between the s9 and the phone? or problems with Backward compatibility

Problem is there are so many Android apps not optimized for tablet use. Even apps with iPad versions don’t get Android tablet versions. Games are worst offenders of this which is my main tablet use case.

Had an iPad Pro 12.9 m1 sine launch month. Got the S0 Ultra last week. Sold the iPad 2 days after getting the S9 Ultra. The main thing I do not like about the S9 is the keyboard in landscape mode.

I will check it out. We still have an ipad Pro. Can anyone please let me know what would replace the reading list to save youtube videos? Just things from google i have stored in my old iPhone. We are selling it . We gone to s24 ultra. Im not sure if i can keep or send to a similar one like a reading list from iPhone to samsung phone. Anyone who has iPhones will understand me. Thank you. Nice video 🎉

Why doesn't Samsung give a dc-dimming setting? The PWM makes my eyes hurt.

I might get the s9 ultra I've heard of the hype so it looks like a good tablet for laptop and tablet🎉

thank you for the video , i have one question which device is better to buy now , the Galaxy Ultra 8 or the tab s9 ? the price are almost the same

How will it sync with my iPhone?

I hope Samsungs puts something better than a Snapdragon 8 gen 4 inside the s10 Ultra. I mean, it should have a Snapdragon X Elite if it's going to compete against the M4.

Android Tablets are great for Media (Netflix, YT ect) but for more "professional" Stuff the iPads are far better. There are no Affinity apps in Android, no real competitor to Logic Pro ... Also a lot of writing and note taking apps are much better on iOS

Bro, i am completely new to this tablet . In S9 ultra , do we get windows 11 OS ? or is it just a tablet OS ?

I believe editing videos and pictures on the iPad. It's probably much better Then On the galaxy tab

If we are being objective, the iPad Pro M4 is leagues ahead of the Tab S9 Ultra. There is no point in comparing, as in every metric, the iPad wins by some margin. Of course, the Tab S10 Ultra will be the principal rival to the iPad and has a two-generation newer chip that helps, but it is still miles behind. So, for those with disposable income, this is a no-brainer, buy the iPad Pro M4. Other factors matter, though, and price is probably as important to some people. So, although old, the Tab S9 Ultra is much cheaper at the end of its cycle. But the Tab S10 Ultra, from what I have heard, will be at a price similar to the iPad Pro M4.

I totally agree ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Major difference and unique selling point ?

chapter markers please. Thank you.

Yh right, the Ipad has better optimized apps especially editing apps not to talk of gaming performance. Gaming on the Ipad is just better!

Im going to buy the tab

I make animated BD works like manga draws... Does Samsung aloud to install those programs Like krita gimp etc Linux free programs instead of Adobe is it possible... If I thought Apple was super expensive.. Whait until see the prices of Wacom digitable tablet pufff 3000 euros for a 16inch puff puff my pocket doesn't aloud me to have Wacom or apple products I was thinking in something like Linux programs free to use...

I need Fresco app..

With LTE option you can use it as a stand alone smartphone too

Way better than the iPad. I have the tab s8 and I play Mario 3d world on it which the iPad isn't doing. Also it has incredible speakers and multi tasking also comes with the stylus pen in the box and micro sd card

The Samsung Galaxy TAB S series is just an objectively better choice than all the other tablets in the market today!

Samsung devices is always the best ❤❤❤❤

My phone,laptop, watch, tablet all galaxy. now, if someone is deep in the apple ecosystem the tab ultra isn't for you.

So. FREE S pen. But extremely Expensive keyboard case etc.

Way better than the iPad. I have the tab s8 and I play Mario 3d world on it which the iPad isn't doing. Also it has incredible speakers and multi tasking w micro sd card and s pen in box

i just need to do simple task like open 2 MS Words files side-by-side for editing. iPad can't do it, S9 Ultra can?

Procreate fot samsung?

Umm. Android systems slow and apps get unsupported after a few generations battery goes down as well. This doesn’t happen as severe with iPads.

if i could choose i would get the s9 ultra but i got the ipad for free so ill take what i can get

Ultra is too big I think the S9+ would be the tablet I go for. I’m more on the go and taking notes sometimes standing up.

Just checked using the link with your video. This is an $1100 tablet for a medium trim, not including MS Office. Why would i get this over a Costco MS Surface package at that price? Seems roughly equivalent, and like a laptop replacement price. Hi from Canada.

Unpopular opinion… i love dex… just change the mouse to a trackkpad… … … of course buddy my pleasure… dont need to thank me

I switched from my iPad pro to the tab s9 ultra and I love it. I highly recommend the s9 ultra

Nah bro, I gotta disagree with you. I have both the Samsung Tab S9 Ultra and the iPad Pro, and while I agree that Samsung's screen is better, Apple's software and apps are way better. I've been trying to find a good handwriting note-taking app for my Samsung, but I haven't found one that's as good as Notability or Goodnotes on the iPad. And in terms of functionality, Apple is just miles ahead of Samsung. Samsung really needs to step up their app game.

Samsung keyboard is overpriced. Ultra variant plus keyboard are at $1400 at my country. At territory of Windows or Mac laptop being way faster than a tablet with windows management capabilities.

I still got my S7+ 5G, its a beast and still powers through anything and is a great travel buddy, only issue is screen size, the keyboard/case price is robbery for the new ultras, think its around $500AUD, i will be upgrading to one of the new ultras soon, not sure which one, when i can find a nice deal i will take it, plenty of FB market place ....

ipad just for procreate, s9 ultra 4 everything, i have tab s8 ultra but, too large maybe s8 plus better choice😂

S9 Ultra needs magic keyboard

This review was nice, but it has a major flaw. No cellular connection. That alone won’t make it an iPad killer

is not.. I have both s9 ultra and Ipad pro m4 the s9 screen broke with protector on it brand new when I purchased the first ipad pro it lasted me 5 years after many falls and sitting on it ipad is built better if you have s9 dont even let nothing small fall on the screen it will break and samsung will tell you to pay 700 or buy new

The ultra is better. The only thing is that it needs Adobe apps and procreate.

So you dont use any apple products at all?

❤

Don't listen to these clowns, buy anything that suits your needs. Android tablet, what a joke

With this money you can find a good laptop !

The biggest way it’s not… Software.

People will still buy an ipad

This is what a Samsung fanboy says hahaha. But seriously, I didn't buy an iPad either

Many of the reasons people are drawn to the higher end ipads is becuse there isnt an android replcement for the _software_ you are looking to use. The samsung tablet looks great, but if it cant run ios apps, its basically useless. Im not a hater. Ive most likely used android longer than you and ive never had a ios device as a daily, but to suggest the samsung instead of higher end apple tablets is kinda dumb. If youre buing an ipad pro, youre probably a creator that needs the ios only apps.

but it’s using last year’s snapdragon

Even the Tab S9 is better than the iPad.

Tech

IPad is good for longer duration, Samsung tabs have many issues like hardware failure, black screen, amoled pink line , etc. after 2 years of usage. But iPads, they can run for more than 4-5 years without slowing down.I had tab s4 with motherboard failure, iPad pro running for 5th year with no issue.

Some people are just stupid!

Exchanging my iPad Air 5 with the Galaxy Tab S8 has to be the best decision I've taken, leagues and bounds better in every possible way for a student like me

So basically, like always, Apple is just a hype train while Samsung just keeps on running the show.. Great job Samsung 🔥🔥💪🏾💪🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾
