The Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra, unveiled in July 2023 and released that August, sits at the very top of Samsung's Galaxy Tab S9 tablet lineup. It pairs a massive 14.6-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X display with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy chipset, an IP68 water-resistant body, and an included S Pen. If you have been wondering where to sell your tablet online, our trade-in service buys it outright for cash — no buyer haggling, no listing fees, no shipping risk on your end. Before you choose your configuration above, confirm you have the Ultra and not one of its close siblings: the smaller Tab S9 (11") or Tab S9+ (12.4"), the LCD-screen Tab S9 FE / FE+, the 2022 predecessor Tab S8 Ultra (also 14.6"), or the newer Tab S10 Ultra. These look similar but carry different screens, chips, and memory tiers, so they price differently and live on separate pages. Match your model first, then select your specs above for an instant cash offer.

Confirm your exact Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra

The fastest way to verify your model is the number printed on the back near the bottom, or under Settings → About tablet → Model number:

SM-X910 — Wi-Fi SM-X916B — 5G (Global) SM-X918U — 5G (US)

This is the Tab S9 Ultra if…

  • The display measures 14.6 inches — the largest in the S9 family
  • The front (selfie) camera sits in a small notch/cutout dual-camera island at the top of the long edge — unique to the Ultra in this generation
  • The model number starts SM-X910 / X916 / X918
  • The screen is a glossy, vivid Dynamic AMOLED 2X (deep blacks, 120Hz)

It is NOT this page if…

  • Screen is 11" (SM-X710/X716) → Tab S9, or 12.4" (SM-X810/X816) → Tab S9+
  • Screen is a flatter, less vivid LCD with a 90Hz feel and a fingerprint reader in the power button → Tab S9 FE / FE+
  • Model number starts SM-X900/X906 → that is the 2022 Tab S8 Ultra
  • Model number starts SM-X920/X926 → that is the newer Tab S10 Ultra

Audio

Quad speaker system tuned by AKG with Dolby Atmos surround. No 3.5mm headphone jack — audio is over USB-C or Bluetooth.

Cameras

Rear cameras

Dual rear: 13MP f/2.0 wide (autofocus) + 8MP f/2.2 ultrawide. Records up to 4K at 60fps.

Front cameras

Dual front: 12MP f/2.2 wide + 12MP f/2.4 ultrawide, set in the landscape-edge cutout. The dual-selfie array is one of the Ultra's clearest identifiers versus the S9 and S9+.

Frequently asked questions

01 How do I confirm I have the Tab S9 Ultra and not the S9, S9+, FE, S8 Ultra, or S10 Ultra?
The cleanest check is the model number under Settings → About tablet: the S9 Ultra reads SM-X910 (Wi-Fi), SM-X916 (5G global), or SM-X918 (5G US). Visually, the Ultra has the largest 14.6" AMOLED screen in the S9 family and a distinctive dual front-camera cutout on the long edge. An 11" screen is the Tab S9; 12.4" is the Tab S9+; a duller LCD panel with a side-button fingerprint reader is the FE/FE+. Model numbers SM-X900/X906 belong to the 2022 S8 Ultra, and SM-X920/X926 to the newer S10 Ultra. Our guide to finding your gadget's model walks through it step by step.
02 Can I upgrade the RAM or storage, and does that change my quote?
No — the RAM and built-in storage on the Tab S9 Ultra are fixed at manufacture and cannot be upgraded. The tablet shipped in three locked tiers: 12GB/256GB, 12GB/512GB, and 16GB/1TB. You can add a microSD card for extra storage, but that does not change the internal configuration. Because the 16GB RAM option exists only on the 1TB model, that top SKU carries the highest trade-in value — select your exact tier above so your quote reflects it accurately.
03 How do I wipe my data and remove my Samsung/Google account before shipping?
Back up your files, then sign out of and remove both your Samsung account and your Google account before doing a factory reset — this clears the Reactivation Lock / Factory Reset Protection so the next owner can set the tablet up. Remember to also pop out and keep your personal microSD card. Our team performs certified data sanitation on every device that reaches us as a backstop; you can review the full process on the data erasure protocols page.
04 What raises my Tab S9 Ultra trade-in value, and why use a trade-in service over a marketplace?
The 16GB/1TB configuration and the 5G cellular variants command the strongest payouts, followed by the 512GB tier. Beyond specs, value is driven by completeness and condition: including the S Pen, original charger, and box, plus a crack-free AMOLED panel and healthy battery, all lift your offer. Compared with selling on eBay, Facebook Marketplace, or Swappa — where you handle photos, buyer questions, payment risk, and shipping — our trade-in service gives you one upfront cash quote and a free, insured prepaid label. Many people are surprised we even buy tablets; we accept the full Galaxy Tab range alongside iPads and other electronics.
05 How fast do I get paid, and what payment methods are available?
Once your Tab S9 Ultra arrives at our facility and our team completes functional and cosmetic inspection, payment is approved within two business days. Most sellers have money in hand within roughly 5–7 business days of drop-off. You choose how to get paid: PayPal, Venmo, Zelle, or CashApp for fast digital transfers, or a physical check by mail. Your prepaid UPS shipping label is free and the shipment is insured.
