- performance wise, there's no difference noticed as I'm not power user who doing video editing on tablet or gamer who played high-end games. But one thing I noticed occasionally is in Dex mode when more apps are open, the lagging is fewer than s8u. not saying s9u has no lag at all, but smoother a bit when a lot of apps opened. But even that lagging on s8u did not bother me much.
- battery. This is the most benefit I would say worth the money and suggest to upgrade, if you care about the battery life. there're different use patterns people have, if only compare standby time or SOT (screen on time) for media playing, they might have similar battery time. I used both when traveling with hours of layover, and watching local saved h265 encoded movies, I won't say that have much difference on battery time.
However, when I use it in Dex and multitasking (usually one window for stock app, twitter app, one browser, one note taking app, chatgpt and YouTube in PIP mode), the battery time difference are pretty noticeable (I mostly turn battery saving on when doing heavy multitasking). I have to grab and charge s8u at lunch time for afternoon work, but with s9u I kinda have more confidence the tab can survive another 3hrs in afternoon.
Again, this improvement I noticed is not for everyone. with moderate use and mostly on media consume, the diff is minimal and may not worth upgrade. But anyone feels or having concern on s8u battery life, can try s9u and my exp tells it gets improved (maybe not the macbook M-chip type of long battery) and suggested to upgrade with a good deal price.
just my two cent

For clarification, you cannot get an EPP discount and the bundle discount simultaneously. I tried multiple ways.
Tax is on $1080 sucks though.

with cashback and employee discounts, upgrade is ~400 from s7fe to s9u, not a bad trade
Realistically though, I'm not sure I would enjoy holding a 14" screen around. The 12" S9+ is just large enough for reading without seeming likely hassle.
