Tab A9 Test Device Review Part 2

Initially had some of this on inititial thread but think better as seperate post.

I must say the Sound quality is better than I expected, it varies though depending on the source, sometimes need to have the volume up pretty high. I found it is more impressive with YouTube Tech videos though no surprise that it cannot match the quality of premium Devices. Galaxy Buds pro 3 work fine but obviously not the same experience as on higher end Devices . The video quality is fairly decent considering everything, more on that later.

Battery though takes a hit with video particularly, it dropped 55 % when I had Prime video on for 4 hours. similar with some tennis coverage via Tennis Tv app(mainly for testing purposes as would usually watch that on TV) .

Get some idea of quality here:

The main camera is 8 mp, selfie 2 mp and not the best (though obviously megapixels not the only factor in determining quality) but for the price you cannnot expect anything approaching premium. Similarly videos are not very impressive.

Can't expect much from a budget tablet, let's be honest.

Hi @JAMES4578

Nice post, dropping 55% after 4 hours of video playing does no seem too bad for me. I got an A9+ and like this one the screen, speakers are pretty decent.

Your pictures are way better than I was expecting. The camera is not the strong side of most tablets. Low light pictures are not the best, to put it nicely. Again, I do not think that tablets are meant to be used as photography devices.

Thanks, yes even with the higher end Tablets photos will not match Smartphones.
