I have two Tab S9 FEs and two Tab A9+ tablets. While the Tab A9+ is not as powerful as the Tab S9 FE, I like the much cheaper Tab A9+ better. It has a slightly more Landscapish display for those who use the Landscape mode. I haven't noticed much difference in the speakers. The S9 FE does better on battery drainage at around 7% an hour vs 9% an hour for the Tab A9+. I don't use Fast Charging because it is not good for the battery and I haven't really compared the charge time between the two. One thing for sure is the Tab A9+ does a lot better at handling memory under Android 15 UI 7 than it did under Android 14, UI 6.1. The Tab A10+ has yet to be released and as I understand it, it has major chipset and charging upgrades. It expected to be released late this summer or early fall, but with all Samsung hardware releases, I imagine this one will be same where the U.S. is not among the early markets to see a new device. -

As such, about 30,000 government sector computers would be switching by 2027 or so. I have been there and done it though probably not with as many as 30,000 computers. i worked on a Bank of America conversion project and it was a mess, a complete mess. Computer system conversions are never as easy as they sound in the media or even the Corporate Boardroom or Government high-up offfices. One may ask, what MIcrosoft hardware and sofware the government of Denmark is using in addition to desktop computers and Office?. One thing for sure. We know that they aren't using Windows 10 Mobile. -

WTF? I can't believe you are surprised it's not an option or it should be. -

Yes, if the PCs aren’t upgraded, they’ll lack features like TPM and remain vulnerable to driver and hardware-level exploits. That includes CPU flaws, RAM vulnerabilities, boot and BIOS attacks, and so on. Realistically, there should have been a steady programme of hardware refreshes rather than allowing systems to age well past their practical and secure lifespan. Are we seriously entertaining the idea of running Linux on machines that are over a decade old as a long-term solution instead of upgrading? Would you entrust your financial data or medical records to a box from the early 2000s, with Windows XP removed and Linux installed in its place? Performance degradation is not just an inconvenience. It affects productivity. Slow machines cost time, and time costs money. Security flaws do too. Hardware and software upgrades should be part of a rolling, responsible IT strategy. They should not be treated as an afterthought. This kind of complacency is precisely the issue we’ve seen before. Just look at how that played out in the UK. We readily replace construction tools such as drills, saws, and other equipment on a regular basis, and many of those cost more than a standard desktop PC. Yet when it comes to computers, we’re still stuck in the mindset of "if it isn’t broken, don’t fix it." Just because something powers on doesn’t mean it is fit for purpose. The horse and cart did the job at one point too, but that didn’t mean it was wise to stick with it when something better came along. -
