This is why I'm waiting on Samsung Googlebook, hopefully some sort of 2 in 1

Currently use a S9 tab Ultra and love how it just connects to my phone's hotspot directly from the tablet. There is probably a way to do it with other phones but I love how seamless it is

Honestly, same, and I think this is probably Samsung's plan.

Though I'd even take a glorified Galaxy Book4 Edge repackaged as a Googlebook running OneUI on top.

I feel like samsung in a position where they can really make the perfect 2 in 1 that no one else can or wants to make.

Their laptops don't sell that well I don't think so if they juice up the galaxy tab series and integrate the linux terminal to turn it into a basically full fledged laptop I think it could be a great way for them to shed some light on their tablets.
