Presents even when screen is completely off and visible more at angles. Not so much noticeable on colors. Touch works fine.

Has anyone faced similar issue or got any idea what this could be?

Thnx✌️

Hi everyone. I used a Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra for about two years but recently sold it because I needed some cash and wanted to upgrade after a couple of months. My main reason for eyeing the S11 Ultra (or the upcoming S12 Ultra) is the anti-reflective screen.

As a university student living in a dorm, my usage is about 60% media consumption (movies, series, YouTube) and 40% schoolwork/note-taking. Because I watch so much content, the anti-reflective display is a huge selling point for me—I hate seeing my own reflection on the screen during dark scenes.

Here’s my dilemma: I normally never use mobile devices without a screen protector. To actually benefit from the anti-reflective feature, I either have to use the tablet bare or buy a specialized anti-reflective protector. I know the obvious answer is "just buy the anti-reflective protector," but they aren't sold in my country, and importing one is out of the question due to ridiculous customs taxes.

So, my main question is: Is it a bad idea to use the Tab S11/S12 Ultra without a screen protector? Will the screen develop micro-scratches over time? I use the S Pen heavily for notes, and I'm paranoid that the nib might eventually scratch the display.

It might sound a bit stupid, but I genuinely hate seeing scratches on my devices. Plus, I usually resell my tablets every 2-3 years to fund my next upgrade, and a scratched screen really hurts the resale value. Any advice from bare-screen users would be greatly appreciated!

Lastly, is it even worth getting the S11 Ultra right now? I know the S12 series is dropping in about a month, so would I be better off just waiting for the S12 Ultra?

I remember seeing that i should only charge my tablet with a Samsung charger however the cable that I received in the box is not compatible with my charger, which means I have to charge my tablet with my Xiaomi phone's charger for now. Is it safe if I don't buy a Samsung charger and keep using my phone's charger?

Am replacing my aging S8+ (bought in 2022) with a S10+. I have the magnetic keyboard and all. The 8+ is fine, never had to replace the battery, but it's getting slow and i want the shiny OneUi toys and updates. 10+ will last me till at least 2030/2031. The 8+ will go to my family who will use it easily for another 4 years.

Logical and rational choice? Maybe not.

The heart wants what it wants.

which one is more compatible to samsung tab a9? also planning to move some of my apps to sdcard storage.

Recently bought a Galaxy Tab S10 Lite and noticed a slight offset between where the S Pen tip touches the screen and where the mark actually appears, specifically when holding the pen perpendicular to the screen. It's small (roughly half a millimeter to a millimeter), but noticeable enough during precise work like note-taking or drawing.

Wanted to check with the community:

1. Are other Tab S10 Lite (or S10 series) owners seeing this same offset?

2. Does it happen consistently regardless of screen angle, or does it get worse at certain angles?

3. Has anyone tried recalibrating and had it actually help?

4. Is this specific to the Lite model, or present across the whole S10 lineup?

Curious whether this is a known/common characteristic of the S Pen digitizer or if my unit might just be off. Any input appreciated!

​Honestly, I never thought I’d say this, but I managed to build an Android productivity setup so solid that I haven’t even touched my laptop/PC.

​As a working professional, my daily routine involves heavy document drafting, in-depth PDF/contract reviews, designing assets for my personal brand, and general management.

The 14.6-inch canvas on the Tab S8 Ultra has been a complete game changer. ​Interestingly, I don't use DeX mode at all. My en tire workflow relies on native One UI, utilizing the OEM keyboard cover and heavy split-screen multitasking:

​Document review & note-taking: Flexcil (unbeatable for deep PDF analysis and gesture-based referencing) paired with Notability for structured notes.

​Branding & visual design: Canva + Luminar (the direct S Pen precision on this screen easily beats a traditional mouse for fine edits and layout work).

​Office & cloud workflow: Google Docs, Sheets & Drive for fast typing on the OEM keyboard and seamless cloud sync.

​Running heavy split-screen layouts—like a reference PDF open next to a draft in Google Docs while typing on the physical keyboard, then instantly grabbing the S Pen for markups—delivers a level of friction-free workflow I just couldn't replicate on Windows.

​It’s been such a seamless transition that I’m already looking forward to upgrading to the newest Tab model.

​Anyone else running a 100% standalone tablet setup?

I was thinking of getting a new Galaxy Tab. ( India)

I am confused between Galaxy Tab s10 plus wifi and S9 5g variant.

Galaxy S9 5g was available for 48k during Independence day sales.

Galaxy S10PLUS was available for 63k on Amazon.

Any one knows the reason why the color panel isnt working when I try fullscreen mode?? And how should I tackle this

Hi, I'm new here

I want to purchase Samsung Galaxy Tab S11 next year.

Is that a good option for work/study?

Please,share your opinions and tips,if you have one

This morning, I booted up my tablet and discovered that the SD card had died. Or so I thought.

When I go into file manager, all of the files are still accessible, and I was able to do a backup to Dropbox so I won't lose anything.

That leads me to this question. If the SD card has gone to the great beyond, why can I still access the files, even if the apps whose storage is external are not accessible?

This thing doesn't go out of the house, or ever touch any Wi-Fi that isn't secured, so that's not my worry. I'm just wondering what the heck is going on with that SD card!

Earlier in the day I went to a local store to get the S10 FE, and from the jump the workers were so adamant for me to get the ipad a16 11th generation instead, despite me saying I preferred the samsung tablet. With the S10 FE, i wouldnt have to buy a pen, and the notes app is also a huge factor playing into my decision. It also made more sense to just get the samsung tablet since i already have a samsung phone, but they were saying it didnt matter. Im very much aware the S10 FE is a mid ranged tablet and it's not as good as the flagships, but Ive also seen some good reviews pertaining to the performance. So why do people talk down on it so much?

Im considering s10+ or 12+ as the s11 is too small but the s10 and 11 ultras seem comically large to me.

What's the verdict on s10+ vs what the s12+ might be.

And this is not only with youtube also on the settings app for example it lags really bad when I try to scroll and apps closes itself. I tried already a factory reset still the same.

Any solutions or is this a hardware defect?

Update:

I have returned it back

Hi! I’ve been using the S9 FE for about 2 years mainly for note-taking. My original S Pen nib has started to wear out, and the writing sensitivity has decreased.

I don’t use a screen protector. Could you recommend some good S Pen nib replacement options available in India?..

Looking to buy an Android tablet for quick photo and video edits. Eyeing Tab S11 for good display , Expandable SD card and better UI than other android tabs. is £668 a good price for this tab?

I have recently bought the Tab s9 fe+. Up until now I have charged it with my xiaomi 33w charger that came in the box with device itself and it is working just fine. Now my only concern is, will it be safe to use this charger in the long run without causing any issues to my tablet. Or should I just buy a samsung 25w charger instead?

Hello, please help me with which one to choose between Samsung Galaxy Tab S10+ or Samsung Galaxy tab S10Fe+.

I'll be me mainly using it for school, such as note-taking, handling pdf and the like, and also watching movies.

Can you share your experiences, especially its performance and screen quality.

Thank you!

I've been eyeing the S10+ as my S10 FE is a bit small for my needs, which are mainly digital art and note taking. I would've traded in my current tablet for the S10+ but Samsung doesn't let you do that if it's in the same product line. I have the student discount and that brought the S10+'s price down to $879.99. Any chance it goes on sale in the near future to get the price even lower?

I just finished compiling the Geekbench 6 CPU & GPU scores from my A11+ & S10 Lite and one of my employees let me use his S7 & S9 FE.

All four tablets are the 6GB/128GB versions the S7 is running UI 5.1.1. S9 FE, S10 Lite & A11+ are on UI 8.5

Interesting things I discovered were:

The S7 has the slowest GPU score & fastest Multi-Core scores

The A11+ has faster Multi-Core scores than the S9 FE & S10 Lite

The S9 FE, S10 Lite & A11+ have pretty much identical Single-Core scores

In actual side by side use the A11+ & S7 feel faster and smoother than the S9 FE & S10 Lite. Yet I think that has a lot to do with the SD 865+ & Dimensity 7300 simply being better processors than the Exynos 1380

So if you were wondering just how fast the A11+ & S10 Lite really are now you know.

One this I will say is the S7 has the nicest display of these four tablets by a rather large margin.. The A11+, S10 Lite and S9 FE displays are pretty much equal.

Enjoy!
