In July of this year, Samsung boldly entered the arena of oversized tablets with the release of the Galaxy Tab S9, Galaxy Tab S9+, and the behemoth I'm using here, the Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra. All three siblings share the potent Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor and boast similar hardware specifications, differing primarily in display size, battery capacities, memory, and storage.
EMBRACING THE 'BIGGER IS BETTER' PHILOSOPHY Samsung, a firm believer in the adage "bigger is better," has demonstrated this conviction here. Upon first encountering the Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra, the sheer size proved to be a revelation.
While the size of the 14.6-inch display had been known, the actual sight and heft of the tablet was surprising, overshadowing even Apple's substantial 12.9-inch iPad Pro.
Powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 Mobile. Platform for Galaxy, my review unit boasted 12GB of RAM and a generous 256GB of storage. The 14.6-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X panel offered a dazzling resolution of 2,960 x 1,848 pixels and an adaptive refresh rate ranging from 60Hz to 120Hz. Additional features like HDR10+, Vision booster, and Eye comfort contributed to an immersive display experience.
The Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra packs a punch in multimedia features. Retaining the storage expansion capability via a microSD card slot, the tablet can accommodate up to 1TB extra storage. Notably, the 20% larger quadstereo speakers with Sound by AKG and Dolby Atmos support enhance the audiovisual delight.
