    Samsung Tab S9 is the best tablet on the market, a multimedia monster. DEX option and we have everything just like in PC. If someone wants to have a tablet for years! S9 the best choice. The best screen, overclocked Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, great speakers, support and Samsung system. Maybe S9 is not cheap, but its capabilities outclass all Android tablets on the market. DEX is something great and you can use S9 like a PC.

      @@sycron17 Assuming? I guess you are the only one who is assuming here. Assuming I don't have these devices. I have had virtually all the generations of iPad pro until the M1 (9.7 pro, 10.5, A12X pro 1TB with 6GB RAM like the A12Z, and M1) and of the Tab S since the S4 (except the S6, the S5 never existed). And I still have all of them, I have only sold the S7. You instead sound like an Apple fan who is trying to move to Android and didn't like it. Which is fine. And that's what I said when I said "ecosystem considerations". There are things I prefer in the iPad pro compared to the Galaxy tabs, and viceversa, otherwise I would not own both. But the S9 and the S23u stuttering and freezing? That's nonsense.... The S9 is the first Galaxy tab that feels as fast as an iPad pro (I have the base 5G version, bought it for a steal in mint conditions at $400, and I also have the S23 256GB, also bought at a significant discount). Back in 2018 the S4 with the SD835 was similar to or even slower than the 2015 A9X in the first iPad pro, while the A12X was many times faster. So fast, that even today it doesn't stutter in the slightest with iPadOS 17. I barely notice the difference with the M1 unless I compare them side by side. And that's the point. Past a certain speed it doesn't matter anymore, other than to fanboys trying to say their favorite brand is the best or those looking at gaming benchmarks (I don't have time for gaming, so GPU peak performance is not something I care about). Well the S9 is that first tablet that is finally faster than the A12X/Z and it's so close to the M1 that you only see the small difference when comparing them side by side. So speed does not matter. And other than that, as I said in my comment, the S9 is better in everything compared to the air 5, speakers, screen, storage capacity. That's facts, not assumptions.

      @FeedbackPete 11 месяцев назад

      Though my current tablet is the Ipad Pro due to its age I need a new tablet. While I've enjoyed my ipad and it served me well I've often been a bit anti Apple there are things they do I haven't liked. Examples are no SD card slot like an Android tablet. I felt like they wanted you to pay more for extra storage but an Android tablet was easily expandable. Not only that but being an enthusiast photographer a card slot was handy when I wanted to transfer photos from my DSLR or bridge camera. I could with Android put memory card in. Apple made a memory card reader but charged around £25 for that. Now both my cameras have WiFi and there are apps for them so it's easier.
      Another thing was I disliked ITunes. Maybe partly I wasn't used to it but I found that software awkward to use. With every other phone tablet and digital music download site they use the Mp3 format or perhaps some audiophile format like Flac. An android phone or tablet would take practically any format you could throw at it Wma wmv. With Apple and ITunes they not surprisingly to me had their own audio file format can't remember it's name. But if I wanted to get MP3 tracks on my ipad there was no simple copy and paste drag and drop. I felt like I had to jump through hoops to get my music on. Import export convert it was unnecessarily harder. Because Apple always want you using their stuff nobody else's. It's only due to peer pressure that they've started including USB C on their products.

    all signs point to the tab s9 for me, (especially since I have a Samsung phone) you can pay for 128 GB storage, battery life, display quality, water and dust resistance, the camera and microphone quality. However, the iPad Air has a more practical aspect ratio because I want to use it for digital art ('paper' size). It would be more comfortable to hold, the Apple pencil seems better than the Spen, it would last long. (like multiple years), and the fact that it has the app Procreate, which I prefer to use, while Google Play doesn't. I don't know what to do! I want to use either one of these for digital art/graphic design.

Samsung/android tablets give you expandable storage, more internal storage, better RAM options, OLED screens, the ability to sideload, emulate, universal back button, way more customization, DEX, and more. All of that isn't worth losing for some nice animations and UI.

    So, the Tab S9 wins in almost all aspects except for performance, but it costs battery life. On the other hand, the iPad wins in terms of updates and service.
    It seems that if you're aiming for performance and planning to use a device for more than 4 years, then the iPad is better. However, if you intend to replace it after 4 years and aren't pushing it to its limits, the S9 is better.

    I watched this video because I'm in the market for a new tablet and it would be a choice between these two. I own an old 9.7 Ipad Pro 128gb bought in mid 2016. It still performs okay but during the pandemic the battery went kaput after about five years. Apple wouldn't replace the battery. That could be partly due to the fact when the battery went i got it replaced at a local mobile phone shop. I think they used a generic battery which was never as good. Now that battery is on its way out. I could've got another battery put in but my ipad is IOS 16. Apple have no plans to udate this old model to 17.
    I use my tablet to surf and for social media RUclips and music videos watching TV shows/films. I also like photography so I may view and edit photos. I'm leaning towards the S9 because I can get a 128gb new or opened but unused one for £515 vs £590 for a new 64gb Ipad.

      If you have the money go for it, if not, buy anything that opens the software you would use.

      Im a genshin player who plays on ipad mini 6 64gb and se 3 128gb. If it's the only game you play and you are mindful with your storage, 64gb is not much of an issue. But if you play another game which is supposed to take up big space of your storage then I discourage purchasing 64gb apple device as it wont be enough. I own my ipad mini 6 since 2022 and play genshin in it and I dont really have any significant issues despite the size or that my device is getting old. It doesnt heat up that much. I purchased it with the intention of using it on my job (and I eventually did). With my simplistic usage of my mini though it's already 51/64gb. Which is fine with me because again it makes me mindful and remind me to check and delete some files or reinstall some apps to have some space. Im the kind that is ok with physical clutter but not with digital clutter it's my pet peeve. So really, deciding which device youll pick is down to your intention oh how youd use it. My take is normal files nowadays take up more space than it does 2-3 years ago so in the next few years 64 gb will be too small of a storage (it already is rn).

    Easy choice for me the iPad. The functionality is better for me needs, with onenote respectively, and deeper integration between apps with sharesheets, the iOS workflow feature, focus modes with different set ups…
    However, I picked up an Amazon Fire max 12 for £135 and for what I’m using that for it’s great value as a family shared tablet (allows more than one user).
    My main phone is an android phone: quad dac, 3.5mm headphone socket, sd card slot, standalone slab or integrated dual screen options. And cost £650 new with second screen.

I love Procreate for my illustrating, and i face time with my sister, so iPad, and I Google Meet with my Mum every week, and enjoy movies in bed, so Samsung. As always, you provide a great, unbiased view on both systems and for people who aren't sure, these are always a great way to determine which one is best for them. Me, I'm just a weirdo, i need both lol.
