I'm thinking of buying a Samsung Galaxy S9+ But the problem is I had a tablet before and I had to get rid of it because for some reason, Prime Video kept Stuttering their videos for some reason. I need to know if this new one will work better.

We're you streaming via LTE or wi-fi. If LTE, your carrier may throttle your data. Check your plan.

In that case, it can be the number of persons attempting to access the wi-fi and the signal strength. It's best to preload shows to your HD prior to viewing, if possible. Especially when traveling.

Have you seen this from the Amazon Prime website?

If you're experiencing any issues with the video "juddering" or having excessive motion blur, we recommend turning the Motion setting on your TV to Off. This setting might have a different name depending on your TV manufacturer. Some examples of the Motion setting include Auto Motion Plus, Tru Motion, MotionFlow, Cinemotion, and Motion Picture.

I just bought the s9 ultra 1tb and prime eventually gets to a decent quality but start off terrible and takes a while to scale up. Im not sure it gets to 4K.   I can run a speedtest at the same time and get 1500Mbps!   my s&7plus is the same way.   I was told that the s7 wasn't certified by prime as an HD tablet!

 

also "hardware acceleration" was off by default on the s7(worked way worse when I turned it on) and is on by default on the S9 in prime settings - I haven't tried it off - I'm returning the s9ultra because I don't find it any better than my s7+.   its almost too big and only thing I see are faster speed tests because of 6ghz

 

every other streaming service works perfect on both tablets and are instantly in HD
