My friend has bought me a Samsung galaxy s9 11 inch 128GB WI-FI - Tablet Graphite, will this Tablet run off mobile wifi? Or run off a mobile similar card data ? I would appreciate a quick reply please. Thank you

Going by your description it is a WIFI tablet, not 5G.

That said just tether it to your mobile.

Anytime.

I have owned a few 5G tablets and never used a SIM, worse I have a 5G laptop with a 5G SIM but barely use the SIM as I always find WIFI.

Yes you can byt just going to settings, Connections and mobile hotshot.

Not sure if the S10 supports auto sharing hotshots between your account devices.

I will, I have noticed that some apps have a split screen like the WhatsApp I am currently using, is there any way of having a full screen?

WhatsApp is a unique pain for this, in the end I preferred it.

To change this there was a setting under Advanced but I cannot find it.

Other settings to definitely try when you have 2 or more Samsung devices are these.

No point me learning and not sharing, so keep asking, if I don't know there are many great and knowledgeable people here.

PLEASE if you have a USB monitor try plugging it into the S9 and realise you don't need a laptop.
