15-inch Monster Tablet! | Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra Unboxing & Review

- Unboxing the Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra, with a review of this almighty Android tablet after several days of play. It's crazy expensive, but the Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra is one of the best slates of 2023, boasting brilliant battery life and excellent performance. But is it an iPad Pro alternative?
Simply put, yes. You'll want to grab the keyboard dock as this Samsung tablet is cumbersome to clutch for any length of time. However, the Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra is one of my favourites thanks to its slick performance; that SD 8 Gen 2 handles gaming and multi-tasking, no problem. You'll get around ten hours of mixed use from a charge, although Samsung's slow charging strikes again. It's a 45W effort.
The Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra boasts a sharp, punchy AMOLED screen which tops off at 120Hz. The quad speaker arrangement is beefy and you get buckets of storage, with microSD support! Something you definitely don't get with an iPad Pro. You've also got a dual front facing camera, which is excellent for Skyping etc.
So that's my review of the Samsung Tab S9 Ultra after using it for a few days. If you've got the cash, you want an Android tablet and you're after the very best, it's a cracker for sure. Of course, this Galaxy is also much more expensive than pretty much all of its rivals.

From digital notebooks to mini monitors
Great review Chris, and can I say again how much I appreciate ypur audio and video quality, my old eyes and ears are eternally grateful. Beautiful tablet, and while I was a bit miffed by no charger in the box, the fact that it comes with SD card storage more than makes up for that deficit, if only Apple was so considerate to it's users. I can't say I'd ever buy/use a table this big, I've found anything for 11 inches is too unweildy, and even then I use a cover with a stand. Having said that, kudos to Samsung for kicking the iPad in the crotch with this beauty.
Love how factual and humorous your reviews are! Thanks very much.
Those first two seconds was all I needed to hear, cheers! 😊❤
"What a beautiful, large screen! Let's put a f*cking notch in it!"
They are dddddduuumb
As far as Photoshop/Photo Editing goes, one of the GREATEST features of my Tab S8 Ultra that no one talks about is the 'Second Screen' feature. SuperDisplay a $10 app works really great. The Tab S8 Ultra has basically replaced my Wacom Cintiq as my main Photoshop editing device. It's higher resolution, wireless, lighter, portable, and the S-Pen might be even better... Samsung's built-in 'Second Screen' works OK, but it used to work much better than it does now, I don't know what happened, but hopefully they will update it to work as good as SuperDisplay does. Plus, your files stay resident on your workstation and you don't have to copy files back and forth.
I find that SuperDisplay works exactly the same wired or over WiFi. If there's a difference, I don't see any. As you mentioned, it's SO much better than Samsung's Second Screen. It's pretty crazy to me that Samsung definitely knows how much of a superior product SuperDisplay is and they could easily license the technology (like they do Wacom's EMR) or even purchase the company without even batting an eye, instead they ship a vastly inferior piece of software...
Plus, the device is awesome all on its own... Literally blown away by how great it is!
The S-Pen is fantastic and FREE in the box. You don't need to add a paper-like screen protector ($40) in addition to the $130 you'll pay extra for the Apple Pencil...
I'm a 30+ year Professional Graphic Artist. When some say that there aren't Professional Visual Arts apps on android it's just really incorrect, because I use them everyday. Autodesk Sketchbook, Infinite Painter, Concepts, Krita are just a few of the apps available on the Google Play store... There are many more... Are there a few apps available on iPad that aren't on the Play store? Yes, of course, but a good carpenter never blames his tools, and with expertise and talent you can do anything and everything on android apps that you can do on iOS apps - NO DOUBT.
If you're already entrenched in the Apple 'eco-system'... Then pay the extra $500 to $1500...
Unfortunately, Samsung's trade-in's aren't great this year...
Two years ago I got the 8GB RAM/256GB SSD Tab S7 Plus in Mystic Navy it was $356 from Samsung with a Tab S4 Trade-In I got off ebay for $175, they gave me $400 trade-in credit, so my total cost from Samsung for the Tab S7 Plus was $531.
I had zero intention of upgrading. Samsung then offered me more than I paid for the S7+ in trade, for a 16GB/512GB Ultra. They also gave me $200 credit towards accesories. It was kinda of a no-brainer, plus the 4-year OS updates and 5-years of security updates for $517.59.
I absolutely love the Ultra, and have no intention of upgrading, especially since Samsung will only give me $650 for the trade-in of my Ultra and the total cost will be $750 for the 16GB/1TB version...
Maybe next time, Sammy...
I love mine, I've just moved my entire eco system from apple to samsung and its amazing
Thats great!!!
How do u rate samsung ecosystem right now
Honestly it's brilliant
@@2040Damian Man even I contemplate making entire samsung ecosystem they even make refrigerators Air-conditioners and what not.
I fully support this idea, they're so good!!
Finally! I've held off buying this Tab S9 Ultra until I get your review. It's the only review I trust. Well done! 👏
This is the BEST s9 tablet review i i have seen thus far..I'm convinced!!!😊
So glad to see you've hit 1 mil! Been watching your videos since youtube recommended you about 5 years ago!
This was great 😃👍🏻❤ tab seem much more improved from previous versions
Picked minde up 2 days ago with the free keyboard book cover and lovin' it 😊. Great video
I pre-ordered mine, can't put it down, my first tablet and hasn't skipped a beat.
Love it for media consumption and some editing.
Love the pen, its a breeze to use and it picks up my chicken scratch handwriting.
I got the smart book cover, so easy to use and fold away.
@norbertsusztek1316 I have no issue with facey or insta, you need to view them in portrait mode for that, insta is actually really good due to the bigger screen.
The ultra is a beast at note taking and watching entertainment, you won't find other tab that is made for that.
I would highly recommend you get the ultra, best tab I have ever bought, you won't regret it.
If this is your first tablet you're going to be disappointed if you start trying other tablets 😂 it is awesome 😊😊😊
is no-one gonna talk about how on his wallpaper, the girl's top say "HEN-TAI", "69" lol.
That's why the Lenovo 13 inch Yoga tablet is so awesome. It has a flip out foot so you don't have to hold it all the time. I got the 10 inch version too. The little fold out foot is stable but small enough to fit on a window sill. Plus it has a hole so you can hang it on the wall.
Is it a tablet ? In my country is sold as a notebook
I picked up one of these on the last day for pre-order discounts and offers. They were still running the free keyboard case offer in the afternoon when I first tried to place the order, but it didn't go through because of an error. Of course the offer had then been pulled by the time I was able to get back later in the day to try again. Still, I've been fine enough so far using the Smart Book Cover as a stand, along with a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse that I already had.
Aside from that, I'm conscious of not wanting to go overboard when writing about it, but this is easily the best tablet I've ever used, and I think it'll effectively be a laptop replacement for me for a good few years.
Chris - fantastic review. Now can we get those fancy wallpapers?
Watching this from the tab s9 ultra 😂❤ loving it.
Banger wallpaper choice
Loving my Tab s9 ultra. This tablet and included s pen does it all. Worth the price. Btw great review 🔥🔥🔥
You bought it ? It is very expensive
it is absolutely not worth the price. A months rent for a fucking tablet? lmao
@@Omar_Little i bought it fo third of the price since in my country there was a great trade in option
@@Omar_Little if u can afford it, go for it. I did.
@@Omar_Little there's so many deals out there. You pay for what u get.
Great video! Quick question, which app is that in the beginning of the video for your ebooks?
Fantastic video 😎👍
Best device reviewer on TH-cam hands down.
That review is definitely fking amusing 💫 The tablet is great too, Samsung.
Love the wallpaper
Amazing view love your banter! Just a quick one I have the S9 Tab in 1TB and they gave me a free keyboard cover part or the promotion but the keyboard they gave for free has no track pad. The track pad mouse one cost more also wanted to ask will any HP Bluetooth mouse work with this tablet ?
What gear and camera do you use to make videos? Looks great.
I just received my s9 ultra I love it even though I couldn't afford the keyboard case I still love it
Now that's one hell of a tablet 🥵
I love your videos💗
Awesome review as always.
Had to drop a like just for the tasteful thumbnail!
What's the name of them comic app Chris?
Great review. As always. Just about to purchase this.
Chris do u use a website for wallpapers? If so can u share it
Another very entertaining review. Looks to be a very nice tablet. I think there is an offer on now, with a free keyboard. Your reviews are spot on. Clean gramically correct. OK I'm bullshitting. But you are very good 👍
Also, the camera is for taking functional photos of boards, and presentations. As a student, a good camera would be very useful
Notification: Tech "Spurt" uploaded 15-inch Monster Co...... oh it says Tablet. Got ya lol
I own the s8 ultra since day 1, and now the s9u, i probably use it in portrait mode, maybe 0.0001% of the time. Seeing reviews holding it and using it in portrait is so weird. There are settings to "hide" the camera cutout. It's being oled screen, I have never been bothered by the cutout, unlike the macbookpro cutout or the stupid iPhone dynamic island.
💯
For that price I’d get a msi pc
Hey I don't have either but you having had both would you suggest I try to score an S8U for a good bit less on ebay or pony up and go for the S9U for several hundred more?
@@teddydavid2816if you care for the battery and processing, go with the S9U, which has the SD 8 gen 2 chip, compared to the 8 gen 1 chip in the S8U, which is known for higher battery consumption, tends to get warmer.
I use the s8 ultra in portrait about 70% of the time. It's fine
Finally 👍💯
Waiting for the day companies start releasing PC-monitor sized tabs
Naaah I think this is the max.. bigger than this is almost unusable anymore.. at least not as a tablet
We have a 40” touchscreen ’tablet’ for the kids in the nursery I work for. They sit in front of it and one takes lead to run it. Amazing.
@@phookit2 do you take it to bed to watch your favourite shows?
do you put it at the dining table to watch some TH-cam?
do you take it to the airplane to pass time?
that's not a tablet anymore if you can't do this stuff.
Is the thickness of the tablet comfortable for long time hold or like the galaxy s22,23 they dig in to your hands?
love this tablet. yeah it's pricey but it's better than a phone and more convenient than getting my laptop out.
Seriously though, where do u get your wallpapers from? I need all of them, and i need them now
i like this review
This bad boy is a real good boi.📈
Samsung did it again!!! The tablet is awesome.
"Neough bollocks!" - Chris, Techspurt, 2023.
Thanks!
Excellent tablet for drawing.
Awesome review as always as i type this from my s9u. in the US the S9u does not have a 5g variant, there is only a wifi model and during the pre order, the keyboard book cover was not free in the US. Last year Tab s8u when pre ordering in the US the keyboard book cover was included which was amazing but it seems sammy is giving fair turns to other locations with the free book cover this year. Cheers from the US Uncle Spurt.
I pre-ordered the Tab s9 ultra and got the storage upgrade from 256 to 512. I'd rather have the storage upgrade. I'm pretty sure the bookcover will go on sale or go for a 3rd party version. I'm really enjoying the s9 ultra, hope you're enjoying yours.
@tytownsend8219 yeah I got the 1tb version with 16gb ram and got the keyboard book cover. I absolutely love it. Sold my iPad pro 12.9 inch and no regrets. Both are great but this serves me better.
Samsung is seriously doing crazy but awesome things 😂🎉
awesome video, i pre ordered mine, but can any one tell me what apps he was using for comics, and manga?!? please
Where you get those cool wallpapers
Are you going to do an s9 ultra vs lenovo tab extreme comparison?
He's honestly one of my favorites!!! But is it just me or does he look like Ten Hag?
I find the S9+ to be the best overall size. Not too big or too small.
Ya now it should be called as "Mini Desktop MONITOR " 😅
That's what she says 😅 lol
For u, but not overall num nuts.
Naahh.. Ultra is the best
In Flames 🤟🤟🤟
hi one question, wich pad is better the samsung s9 ultra or the lenovo tab extreme? wich one is the best to buy ?
Can you do review of Alldocube iplay 50 mini pro when the product came out? I want to compare the miniature tab to this 😂
Shenanigans, beltin', slap it on, shenanigans, slap it on, shenanigans
Прикольні відео , переглядаю кожен день , це як бальзам для душі😃
As weird as it might seem, I have seen a reason to use the cameras on a tablet outdoors.
I was hanging with a real estate assessor a while ago, and the dude was wandering around a property with an iPad tablet, carefully framing his shots and inspecting them on the big screen for their quality and detail and sending the pics back to the real estate agents on the fly , when detail matters , it’s much easier to assess an image on a big tablet screen than on a pissy smartphone screen .
And from what I saw , all the pics where keepers because the guy could frame up and get a very good image because he had that big screen and could get the nice images framed in one go.
Maybe not for everyone , but in some circumstances you could see the tablet cameras being useful.
How are speakers compared to the giant lenovo tablet?
i rather have a charger than a darn keyboard
If you've been rocking with samsung you should already have one lol
I wish I have that 😢 . Your very lucky.
Great review 👍
The S9 Ultra is definitely a powerhouse BUT i'd have expected a much higher level of its display brightness!
Even on my Galaxy Tab S7+ the maximum brightness seems to be higher!
Are there any tools to test the display quality & brightness on tablets?
Thx from Munich 😉
in comparison to the Lenovo Extreme Tab, which is better overall and why?
Can you do a review of the new Xiamoi 6 max 14inch 6:40
Where do you get all of your wallpaper?
It's a great tablet. It doesn't even excite me now. We're so spoiled...
Can you do a review on iPad air 5 please
I was looking at the wallpaper 😂😂😂
i actually ordered mine on Samsung with a free keyboard included lol
Sir, I am very curious about the device's used wallpapers which you showed in every review. Please will you tell me about the website
.. every wallpaper looks super High Quality....
I have an S7+ at the moment, but this is probably too big/expensive for me to upgrade to if/when this breaks. It would have to be the S9+ (because I wouldn't go smaller either!).
If you haven't already, it might be worth seeing if there are any trade in deals if you're really interested.
Right now they will give you 350 usd as a trade on the s7+. If you use your tablet at home the ultra isn't as unwieldy as you might think.
The rounded edges of the OnePlus Pad are way more comfortable to hold than the flat edges like here and iPads
Are you doing a givaway 😂 lol. Also what tablet specific apps you use.
Wow it big
How do I get them wallpapers you're using ?
Dope
@TechSpurt Sir you are the S- Tier best Tech TH-camr ever🎉
Tech Spurt THANKSMUCH FOR SHARING !
I believe that you can use a 65w charger on this tablet. Also, at this cost i have a screensaver and it is still perfectly sensitive to my touch
Struggling to get your goblin hands around that tab I see Chris
My favourite youtube creator tech supprt😍😍
Opinion I’m deep in the apple ecosystem with all movies bought on my Apple TV, but do fancy this new tablet for screen. Just a consumption device the usually suspect and will be upgrading from my gen 1 iPad Pro 2015. Samsung offers a good deal inc keyboard and 130 for my very old iPad. But who does iOS vs Android compare these days.
Hi, can the S9 Ultra handle a 6K Open Gate video edit?
I use my S9+ with a tablet stand when watching videos or any other passive task.
pretty impressive, when my current laptop dies I am gonna replace it either with this one or a laptop with latest ryzen 7/9 with a great monitor, for serious work it is anyhow docked with a proper keyboard and additional monitors and for media consuming /ebooks, comics, videos/ this is a luxury item and overkill...but hey, apocalypse is around the corner so ......
Over 1,300 for a tablet is crazy. You can get a gaming laptop or desk top for that price
Didn't know you can build laptops as thin as cardboard, carry it around anywhere, take pictures with it, draw on it
@micahjoelgeimer4215 you can do that on laptops, where you been at? Not as thin but you can definitely do all you said for cheaper than the tab s 9 ultra
@dillonbanks609 laptop weight 3-4 times heavier. Can't take photos. Take bad selfies, video call. No cellular connectivity. Not IP68.
@@Ryomatoly you just described a tablet
@@dillonbanks609not S9
Does anyone know any good case for this tablet preferably one with different angle options and not black in color
Great review. Nobody cares about outward facing cameras on a tablet. They should focus on a better face-facing camera.
To answer the question Tech TH-camrs always fall into regarding the cameras... Not everyone wants to be married to their phones. If you're working with the Tab S9 Ultra let's say, it's good to be able to snap pics of a document or grab something while you're on a call real quick rather than using two screens. In my case, I use a very old, simple phone and at least for now, haven't been able to afford an expensive camera phone. I'm also debating if I should even bother with such period since I do everything mobile wise on my tablet anyway.
Yes but is it controller 🎮mountable? Gaming (by streaming) is a dream on the Samsung fold 4 🖥️🎮I bet on this it's awesome too!!
What gaming controller is the best to play Xbox game pass?
Where to get that wallpaper ? Link please
Can chrome extensions be added to the chrome browser?
Bruh u need to make a wallpaper folder 😢😢
I went to order the Galaxy Tab s9 with all the promotions and deals. Cheaper than Amazon with more ram. When I went to buy it, it said out of stock and there was no way to pre-order it. Only a link to get notified when in stock. The time limit is over and I missed out. This is ridiculous on Samsung's part. At least they could have let you ordered it and wait.
