The best for media

The Tab S9 Ultra is a big tablet, no avoiding that, in fact it's big enough that it's not really comfortable as an e-reader replacement. For that, one of the smaller tablets in the range is probably more appropriate. Where it shines, however, is in the brilliance of the screen and the power of the chipset. The display brightness is a big step up from the S8 Ultra, which was already very good, and this makes it a great tablet for using outdoors, whether watching movies or streams, browsing the web or checking email. The screen contrast is also exceptionally high, and the OLED screen means that black letterbox areas of movies that can distract are non-existent - in a darkened room the tablet screen area is exactly that of the movie you're watching, which gives a great experience. On the productivity side, The S9 Ultra benefits from Dex, a desktop that functions very much like other desktop PC operating systems, so web browsers, document editors, spreasheets and email clients work very much as if you were on a laptop, but with much better battery life. That makes it a useful laptop replacement for light use. While I dodn't recommend it as an ebook reader replacement, where it shines is in reading magazines and articles, and I find it particularly useful for academic papers, as viewing a whole page of relatively-small text and figures is much easier on a screen not far off from the intended paper size. Another useful feature is Second Screen, which allows any PC connected to the same WiFi network to use the tablet as an extra screen, making it very useful as a laptop companion. Overall, the Tab S9 Ultra is a real joy to use, and straddles the tablet/laptop class. It won't be for everyone, but if you want 90% of the functionality of a laptop, an outstanding media player and anything needing a huge, excellent screen, this is the tablet to go for.
