galaxy tab s9 fe vs tab s8
In this video we take another look at a Samsung Galaxy battle, between the all new Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 FE vs Tab S8. Many of you requested that I make this video to help you make your decision on whether to purchase either one. The galaxy tab s8 is the flagship from last year, but that does not mean that it is no longer relevant - in fact it may be even more than that. The new Galaxy tab s9 fe of course is this year's midrange, and is a very relevant tablet. Although this may seem like an easy choice for many people, one should purchase either one of these galaxy tablets in specific situations.

Here are some Top notch video you might be interested in:

Hey man, thanks for answering the question at the beginning of the video before explaining. If I can't stick around for the whole video, it's much less frustrating

S8 has better chipset, better display, better screen resolution

[rachmahadiyanti]

Omg your video playlist literally answered all of my questions around every samsung tablet series. Thank you so much for making all of the videos!!

Thanks for doing this comparison! Makes me relieved that I got an S8 last year. I appreciate the Dex mode once you hook the S8 upmto an external monitor since I do lots of productivity work and study as well.

Hi Lad, thanks for great and quick comparison. You have sealed the deal for me, for choosing S9 FE (LTE/5G, 8GB, 256GB, IPS). I was looking for midrange tablet, though I had specyfic expectations, like LTE/5G modem, good specs, smooth work, making hand writen notes, but on a budget, money are not that much of an issue, but I have other expenses and if I could justify extra functionality, like the one with active pen or extra smoothness, but I don't play games, tablet is suppose to be used mainy as work/study aid, some latency, when I overload it is acceptable in higher mid range. I was looking for those as well with good price to performance ratio and it looks like S9 FE lands in the area I feel comfortable with and the water resistance sweetened the deal.

Happy New Year! I initially had an S2 when it first came out and I loved it until it stopped receiving updates. I replaced it with a A8 almost 2 years ago and I have had consistent issues with it not wanting to charge unless I do a hard restart. I'm over it and want to purchase something else. 99% of my usage is for reading and some web browsing and email reading and occasional youtube videos. No gaming at all. Your opinion then on a better replacement for me. The S8, S9FE or something else. Appreciate your great videos

Just discovered you. Thank you, u helped me feel so much better about my purchase!

[paulchamberlain]

Thank you. You're video was very clear with important details, like which can be attached to an external monitor. Also, I like how you gave your conclusion at the beginning, but then very important details later.

Great video..thank you for the thorough review.

I recently started watching your videos and find them helpful.

For myself I am looking for two tablets. One for personal and the other for work.


I want to keep my stuff organized and separate so it's easy to just pick something up and know what I'm going to do with a specific tablet.

I kind of wish that with the Tab S9 FE, Samsung would've done what they did with the S23 FE. That phone still has flagship specs from having an OLED display to a Snapdragon 8 series and having video out for Dex.
I considered the Tab S9 FE Plus, but for 256GB, the pricing got too high. I got lucky enough to find a deal for the Tab S8 Plus.

Which tablet is better for school purposes? Like downloading lots of files, editing presentations, note-taking and accessing microsoft apps?

[yuktisharma]

I sm looking for video editing . Which will you recommend?

[Laurelin]

Teacher here- I would use the tablet for lesson planning and attendance taking (WeSchool, Planboard), hand note taking (for meetings and courses), internet surfing with a lot of YouTube videos, organizing and managing time and projects (with different apps, like Clickup or Asana), video chats and meetings with families and colleagues, using a lot of Google apps for Education (Classroom, Jamboard, Drive, Meet, Docs, Sheets, Slides, Forms). I have a lot of emails to write and send while at school. I would use it also for personal interests: watching movies (with earphones) on Netflix and Prime Video, journaling, watching music videos on YouTube and reading and annotating ebooks. For work, I have to carry it around in my briefcase on buses and metro (I don't use a car), so it should be light and not too large.
Would the S9 FE be enough for my needs, or should I buy an S8 instead? The latter is a bit out of my budget...

[jebimaya]

I wanna get a tablet mostly for taking notes and organizing them.. half would be for classes, and another use case scenario would be making documents (already formatted) on the go.. maybe games sometimes but definitely videos.. what would you recommend? Right now, the tab s9fe comes with a free samsung keyboard from where i could buy it.. what would you recommend?

[isabellamarie]

Do the pens feel any different? As far as the 9s fe being more responsive and feel more like a pen vs the s8?

I currently have the Samsung Galaxy tab s6 lite, and I've been thinking about If it would be a good idea to get an upgrade or not and if so which. I mostly use my tablet for drawing with Ibis Paint as well as note taking/journaling and scrolling on Pinterest and the internet.

I am a student in STEM and I wanna buy a tablet primarily for studying - pdf/word reading and extensive note taking purposes, internet surfing (youtube videos/reading articles on google etc) and a little social media, sending emails, using apps like Google Classroom, using gmeet/zoom for calls etc, and (definitely not much) some occasional light gaming and Netflix/Prime. I'm hoping it will (kinda need it to) last me at least about 5-6 years, so software support is definitely important for me. And I wouldn't wanna deal with any kind of lag either, especially considering my intended primary usage purpose. I don't generally keep 10 apps open all at once, I mean I don't do/look at 10 things at once, maybe 2 or maximum 3 at a time. And I do like the 12.4in size. Where I live, the tab s8+ is significantly higher priced. Considering that, would you recommend the tab S9 FE+?

Gracias por el video! Soy pintora de oleo y busco una tablet que tenga buena resolucion de imagen y colores ya que la usaré como referencia al pintar (en vez de imprimir la imagen en papel), tambien la quiero usar para ver mis clases de pintura online, netflix y youtube. Me recomiendas el S8? Crees que la xiaomi Ipad pro 6 es mejor o igual?

[MandosCulture]

I just made this choice without watching too many videos but looking at the prices and the specs, absolutely would agree with this review! Great video!
