Designed to be the go-to device for productivity, entertainment, and communication, it competes strongly with much more expensive alternatives.
This review dives into why the Samsung Galaxy Tab A9+ 5G stands out and what makes it an excellent investment for professionals, students, and everyday users alike.
Unboxing the Samsung Galaxy Tab A9+ 5G
Inside the sleek black Samsung box, you’ll find the Samsung Galaxy Tab A9+ 5G, a USB-C to USB-C charging cable, a 15W power adapter, a SIM ejector tool, and standard documentation. The packaging is minimalist, and the tablet itself feels sturdy, stylish, and surprisingly premium for its price.

Design and Display
At just 6.9mm thick and weighing approximately 480 grams, the Samsung Galaxy Tab A9+ 5G is incredibly portable. Its aluminum body feels durable, while the matte finish resists fingerprints and adds to the premium look and feel.
The tablet sports an 11-inch WUXGA+ TFT LCD display (1920×1200 pixels) that offers sharp visuals and vibrant color reproduction. The 90Hz refresh rate ensures smoother scrolling and a more responsive touch experience — perfect for watching movies, reading, or multitasking.

Performance and User Experience
Under the hood, the Samsung Galaxy Tab A9+ 5G is powered by the Snapdragon 695 chipset paired with 4GB or 6GB of RAM and 64GB or 128GB of internal storage, expandable up to 1TB via microSD.
Whether you’re streaming 4K videos, multitasking between apps, attending Zoom meetings, or using it for online classes, this tablet handles everything without stutter. Samsung’s One UI 5.1 enhances the experience with smart multitasking features like split-screen mode, floating windows, and gesture controls.
Gaming performance is solid for casual titles like PUBG Mobile, Asphalt 9, and Genshin Impact when played on medium settings.
The major selling point of this tablet is in its name — 5G. The Samsung Galaxy Tab A9+ 5G supports both SA (Standalone) and NSA (Non-Standalone) 5G networks, ensuring compatibility across regions and carriers. Whether you’re streaming high-definition content, downloading large files, or participating in real-time virtual meetings, the tablet maintains a fast and stable connection.
Wi-Fi 5 and Bluetooth 5.1 support offer further wireless connectivity options. Dual stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos support enhance the multimedia experience.
Battery Life and Charging
Equipped with a 7,040mAh battery, the Samsung Galaxy Tab A9+ 5G easily lasts 10–13 hours of regular use. This includes web browsing, YouTube, video calls, and reading. The 15W fast charging isn’t the fastest on the market, but it refuels the device in under 2.5 hours, which is acceptable for a tablet in this range.
Its intelligent battery management also minimizes power drain by pausing background processes when not in use.
5G connectivity supported on Galaxy Tab A9+ only.
Price, Comparison, and Value
Priced around Ksh 26,000 – Ksh 30,000 , the Samsung Galaxy Tab A9+ 5G competes directly with tablets like the Lenovo Tab M10 5G and Xiaomi Pad 6.

Its affordable price and feature-rich package make it ideal for online learning, content consumption, and even remote work.
