I hadn't used a tablet in years (since 2015), but this year I decided to buy one as a laptop for school, light work, and drawing.

This particular tablet has made me look good:

Very thin and sturdy construction, entirely made of aluminum with a wonderful feel in the hand.

UNBELIEVABLE display, possibly the best I've ever seen on a tablet.

Superb performance - expected given the SD 8 Gen 2 it has.

Wonderful speakers, with very good, powerful sound that makes you want to listen to music or watch videos/movies even without headphones.

*Includes* S Pen, which in turn leaves nothing to be desired - with Air Actions, excellent precision and speed, and a very good feel in the hand. It's also important that it doesn't need to be charged to work on the tablet - only for the Air Actions does it need a battery.

Quite fast charging (although unfortunately it doesn't include a charger in the box) - I haven't done exact measurements, but with the 25W charger I have, it charges very quickly, especially with the 45W charger it supports.

Samsung's functional guarantee - optimized for tablets with a lot of functionality combined with AI (which I must admit I haven't used much) as well as Dex, which is quite useful as a desktop-esque environment.

Useful compatibility with Samsung phones, with synchronization of calls and messages as well as answering incoming calls on the tablet.

Honestly, the only negative I can find is the awkward charging position for the pen under the rear camera, something I've somewhat improved with a case for the tablet that has an internal section for the pen (combined with how quickly it charges - so I don't need to have it in place for long).

Amazing tablet and very worth the purchase. I don't think it will leave anyone disappointed.

I had the S4 tab from SAMSUNG. Excellent as well, but compared to the S9, it resembles a turtle with a hare. There is also the AI of the S9 which alone is a game changer. Paradoxically, the S9 does not have NFC and its battery drains faster than expected. On the other hand, it loads (and charges) very quickly. For all its merits, it deserves 5 stars.

The tablet definitely "rocks." In the Android market, it's the best you can find, and as far as I know, it's the only one that is 5G (for those of us who need it). Its "drawback" is its annoying operating system, which is "closed" and requires you to have an account with Samsung in addition to your Google account for many important functions (updates, etc.). For those who are used to less intrusive brands, the experience is literally nerve-wracking. Because as a device it is a spaceship (screen, performance, capabilities, stylus, etc.), I only take away one star, but if you don't need its capabilities and you're not already in the Samsung ecosystem, it's better to avoid it.

Excellent tablet, ideal size in my opinion as the plus and ultra versions are huge and lose the portability value.

Positives:

- Solid construction, feels like you have a beast in your hands.
- Fingerprint sensor.
- Very fast in everything.
- Excellent battery.
- Speakers. Its biggest advantage in my opinion. The best sound I have heard on a portable device.

Negatives:

- Screen. For its price, it should have had QHD+ resolution.
- Solid, but with the case that you will surely put on it, it becomes quite heavy.

Personally, I consider it the top Android tablet at the moment in many aspects.
