Samsung has announced the launch of its top-of-the-range Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra 5G – a tablet that boasts impressive specs, making it a compelling option to replace your laptop or PC. The tablet offers a 1TB of storage, 16GB RAM, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor, and a 14.6-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X display with 2960×1848 resolution and 120Hz refresh rate. The camera system also impresses with twin 12MP front lenses and an 8MP main ultra-wide rear camera. Additionally, the device includes a 5G SIM card slot and an SPen stylus.
The tablet, weighing just 732 grams and 5.5mm thick, also boasts an IP68 rating for water and dust resistance, making it rugged and portable. Featuring Android 13, the tablet runs Samsung’s One UI, enabling easy multitasking with the ability to run three apps together. The 14.6-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X display offers vibrant colors, deep blacks, and excellent sharpness and contrast. The tablet’s display is complemented by the powerful Snapdragon 8 chipset and 16GB of RAM.
The tablet’s 5G connectivity provides fast internet speeds, making it perfect for gaming, video conferencing, and streaming high-definition content. In terms of design, the tablet exudes a premium feel with its slim and lightweight aluminum body. The inclusion of the SPen stylus, which magnetically attaches to the back of the device and charges inductively, is a great addition for creative individuals.
The tablet’s dual-camera system captures vibrant photos and delivers impressive results for video calls and selfies. The tablet’s battery offers over 12 hours of running time, supporting movies and games before needing a charge. However, the battery recharge time is considered lengthy, and the SPen stylus lacks dedicated storage space.
The tablet’s price starts at Dh4,599 in the UAE, with the range-topper S9 Ultra listed for Dh6,599. Despite its steep price, the Samsung Galaxy S9 Ultra is considered the best Android tablet on the market, capable of replacing your laptop. It is rated 4.5 stars by experts and offers a compelling choice for those looking for a versatile and high-performance device.
