It has the Qualcomm Snapdragon 695 under the hood, a chip that we have previously seen in some Motorola, Sony, and OnePlus phones. It’s proven to perform smoothly and will have no problem keeping up with multitasking, web browsing, and online baking.
There is a 7,040mAh battery inside so you will get a couple of days out of it with light use.
The base Galaxy Tab A9 Plus with 64GB of storage starts at $219.99 and Amazon and Best Buy are giving away a Book Cover with it for free, which separately would cost you $50.
As anyone who has ever dropped a gadget knows, most of us are far too clumsy to take the risk of using a device without a cover. Chances are, you’ll end up buying a cover sooner or later, so if you can have one for free, and that too an official Samsung one, you should go for it. The cover not only protects the device but also acts as a stand for hands-free use.
Unlike nearly every other tablet, the Galaxy Tab A9 Plus has retained staples like a headphone jack for wired earphones and a microSD slot for adding more storage space – all the more reason to go for it.
