Just a FYI - if you have a keyboard with trackpad for your s8+ and are planning to upgrade to s9+ - it does NOT fit correctly. The back cover does not align with the camera and the stylus has move slightly making the fit very clumsy. it is still functional as a kickstand though. They keyboard fits but feels very lose when attached. It is also very sporadic when using the keyboard and really unusable. Just thought I would share that info with anyone considering the upgrade.

It's definitely not. I'm having trouble finding a reason to upgrade from the S7+.

I've caved in and doing it every year basically. I justify it by simply thinking about how much I use the products vs cost. Few hundred bucks a year for something I use literally daily is more than justified to me. And I also think about the fact that the longer I hang on to it the more it'll cost me to trade it in lol, so what am I saving really?

Then I also consider how much I spend on other crap through the year that I get no use out of.

It also depends on if you're a fully working adult vs a young guy living on the cheap at which point I am questioning why you're buying flagship model electronics.

Seems straight forward to me

Quote from Virge147 :
Speed? Battery degradation? Better screen? I guess if you use it more as an everyday device it may be worth it. My S8+ seems to be rock solid - negligible speed difference and the screen is the same.
The Tab S8+ has the inefficient Snapdragon 8 gen 1 chip. You'll see a higher battery percentage remaining in the Tab S9+ after a long day's use. That's probably the only thing that will be noticeable.

I went from a Tab S7 FE to the 8+, and noticed the increased battery use. But personally I'm not biting at this deal's upgrade price.

Quote from daydream3r :
Most phones and tablet's upgrade has been lackluster lately. I upgraded from the S7FE to the S9+ but didn't really noticed the difference. Even with the better screen I didn't noticed it much. If I had to pay $900 for the S9+ I would return it, even at a $313 price to upgrade it seems unnecessary.
Yeah for sure. I feel like the past 5 years have really lacked. I wish in the mean time that they would at least find ways to put in bigger batteries, rather than waiting for battery consumption to increase for them to increase the battery size which cancels itself out.

I have yet to see a single upgrade worth actually upgrading for. We "upgrade" just to be on new devices, that's it lol

Only nice thing I've gotten is moving up to a bigger screen which makes work a lot more efficient and easier by using the Tab Ultra versions. Phones I can't tell the difference from an s22 to an s23 to an s24

i have a S7 FE with the Samsung keyboard. Since S7 FE and S9+ are both 12.4, anyone know if the S& FE keyboard will work with the S9+?

Lol I completely understand. After literally one day of getting on the "new" device, I completely forget that I'm on the NEW FLAGSHIP lol.

To actually get an upgrade I feel like you have to wait 5 generations.

Every few years something new gets implemented, either bigger batteries, actual camera upgrades (none of these zoom changes), 120hz refresh rate, and now AI I guess.

I completely agree though. I would say the primary reason I even upgrade yearly has more to do with simply wanting to have the latest product. I definitely don't think anybody can actually justify getting these things because they're actually getting something new that they were missing on their previous device.

I was upgrading on actual release dates, but I felt like a fool lol. So I just changed to upgrading every September as I also upgrade my tablet. and Samsung just happens to do much better bundle deals at least. So now rather than upgrading each device separately, I'm doing a bundle trade-in every September or whenever the tablet also gets released.

looking at the s24 I have to say I see absolutely NOTHING that I feel I'm lacking on my s23. like NO THING
Yeah, we are really at a point that upgrades are like cars... No since in getting one every year. I am considering the s24 ultra or a stupid iPad mini... Why?! I am taking flying lessons. I have a tab so+, but it's big. I need a smaller tablet. It's just for flying. Also thinking of getting a refurbished iPad 5 mini... But I want to wait to see if the mini will finally get a clearance price since the new one is coming

Would hop on this and trade in my s8+ for an ultra, but the keyboard is way too expensive.

Don't think so bc the camera lenses are bigger on s9 plus vs s7 Fe flat design

1. No difference in speed unless you are playing high-end games or something.
2. They have the exact same screens
3. Battery degradation is negligible.
i just traded in my GT S8+ and it was WAY smaller than the S9U.
I wanted the bigger screen though and make it more of a daily driver device.

I was talking about the S7+ vs 8+ and 9+. The Ultra is a whole different tablet.

It is a beast, and it's huge. It's not really a media consumption tablet - just too big. Would make a good laptop replacement, I guess, but that was not what I was looking for.

Surprised you didn't notice a difference in speed. A while back I returned a 7 FE to go to a S8 and the performance jump was substantial. I barely notice a difference between that and my S23U tho.
