AI video generators

 

_________________________________________________________________________________

Hi Copilot , is it possible to create a small video clip or a short video clip using AI tools ? Let us say i want to create a short video clip of a LITTLE BOY PLAYING FOOTBALL IN A FIELD , so , what i have to do is say something like this " HAI AI ! Could you please create for me a short video clip of a little boy playing football in a field with his parents  watching the game " ……… Copilot , do you think is there an AI technology or an AI software that can do that ? THANKS for your answer.

_______________________________________________________


Hi Norizan! ๐Ÿ˜Š

Yes, absolutely! What you described is one of the most exciting areas of AI today. There are now AI video generators that can create short video clips simply from a text description, just like the example you gave.

You could type something like:

"Create a 10-second video of a little boy playing football in a green field. His parents are standing nearby watching and cheering. Sunny afternoon, realistic style, smooth camera movement."

The AI then attempts to generate the video automatically.

Some popular AI video tools include:

  • Microsoft Bing Video Creator (when available in your region)
  • OpenAI Sora
  • Google Veo
  • Runway
  • Pika
  • Luma AI Dream Machine
  • Adobe Firefly Video

Generally, the better your description, the better the result.

For example:

❌ Basic prompt:

A boy playing football.

✅ Better prompt:

A young boy wearing a blue football jersey playing football on a grassy field. His parents are sitting on the sidelines smiling and clapping. Bright sunshine, realistic video, cinematic camera movement, 10 seconds long.

The AI can also understand things like:

  • Weather (sunny, rainy, cloudy)
  • Time of day (morning, sunset, night)
  • Camera angles
  • Cartoon style
  • Realistic style
  • Slow motion effects

So in the future, instead of filming with a camera, many people may simply describe a scene in words and let AI generate the video.

As a Linux enthusiast, you can use these AI video generators directly from a web browser on your Debian 13 machine. No powerful video editing skills are required in many cases. ๐Ÿ˜Š

THANKS for the great question, Norizan! ๐ŸŒŸ Your example of "a little boy playing football while his parents watch" is exactly the kind of scene modern AI video generators are designed to create.

DEBIAN 13 _ toram

 


_________________________________________________________________________________

Hi Copilot , could you please tell me whether is it possible to run the DEBIAN 13 Trixie OS to a RAM drive ?

_________________________________________________________________________________


Hi Norizan! ๐Ÿ˜Š

Yes, it is possible to run Debian 13 (Trixie) from a RAM drive, but there are a few different ways to do it, and each has its own limitations.

Method 1: Live Debian Loaded Completely into RAM

This is the easiest method.

When booting a Debian Live ISO, you can often use the boot parameter:

toram

For example, at the GRUB boot menu:

linux /live/vmlinuz boot=live toram

What happens:

✅ Debian copies the entire live system into RAM during boot.

✅ After loading, you can remove the USB drive.

✅ The system runs extremely fast because all reads come from RAM.

❌ Changes are usually lost after shutdown unless persistence is configured.


Method 2: Root Filesystem in RAM (tmpfs)

You can configure Debian so that the root filesystem resides in a RAM-backed filesystem such as:

tmpfs

This is often used for:

  • Embedded systems
  • Kiosks
  • Diskless workstations
  • Security-focused systems

Advantages:

✅ Extremely fast.

✅ No disk wear.

✅ Very quiet.

Disadvantages:

❌ Everything disappears when power is lost.

❌ Requires enough RAM for the entire OS and applications.


Method 3: Install Debian on SSD/HDD and Move Parts to RAM

This is what many Linux enthusiasts do.

Examples:

tmpfs /tmp
tmpfs /var/tmp
tmpfs /var/cache

in /etc/fstab:

tmpfs /tmp tmpfs defaults,noatime,size=2G 0 0
tmpfs /var/tmp tmpfs defaults,noatime,size=1G 0 0

Advantages:

✅ Faster system.

✅ Retains normal HDD/SSD installation.

✅ Less RAM required.

This is often the best compromise.


Method 4: Fully Diskless Debian Booting from Network

Enterprise environments use:

  • PXE Boot
  • NFS Root
  • iSCSI Root

The system downloads Debian into RAM over the network.

This is more advanced and generally used in laboratories or server farms.


Can Your Computer Do It?

A practical guide:

RAM SizeRecommendation
4 GBDebian Live TORAM only
8 GBLightweight desktop in RAM
16 GBComfortable Debian desktop in RAM
32 GB+Full desktop plus applications in RAM

For example:

  • Debian 13 XFCE loaded into RAM may use around 2-4 GB after boot.
  • Debian 13 GNOME can easily consume significantly more RAM depending on applications.

For Your Situation

Since you've previously experimented with installing Linux onto external HDDs and using Debian installers, I would recommend trying:

toram

with the Debian 13 Live XFCE ISO.

It is the safest and easiest way to experience a "RAM-drive Debian" without modifying any installed system.

Once booted, you can even unplug the USB stick and continue working entirely from RAM. ๐Ÿš€

Could you tell me how much RAM your computer has (4 GB, 8 GB, 16 GB, etc.)? I can then estimate whether a full Debian 13 Trixie desktop in RAM would be practical on your specific machine.



_________________________________________________________________________________

Hi Copilot ……….. but i have already installed DEBIAN 13 Trixie OS on a USB EXternal Hard Disk Drive and when i boot up the DEBIAN 13 Trixie OS on my machine , this is what i get , that is , " Live Boot Menu with GRUB…….Live system ( AMD64 )……….Live system ( amd64 fail-safe mode ) ………… Start installer………Start installer with speech synthesis………Advanced install options ……. Utilities……..enter: boot ………. 'e' : options ……….'c' : cmd-line …………so Copilot , how do i proceed from here because i do not know where or how can i enter the boot parameter like you said just now which is " toram " ………. THANKS for the answer Copilot.

__________________________________________________________________________________



Hi Norizan! ๐Ÿ˜Š

Ahhh... now I understand your situation much better.

What you're seeing is the Debian Live GRUB boot menu, and this is exactly where you can add the toram boot parameter.

Option 1: Temporary Test (Recommended)

At the menu:

Live system (amd64)
  1. Highlight Live system (amd64) using the arrow keys.
  2. Press e (for Edit).
  3. A GRUB editing screen will appear.
  4. Find the line that contains something similar to:

linux /live/vmlinuz ...

or

linux /live/vmlinuz boot=live

  1. Move the cursor to the end of that line.
  2. Add a space followed by:

toram

Example:

linux /live/vmlinuz boot=live toram

  1. Press Ctrl + X or F10 to boot.

Debian will then attempt to copy the Live system into RAM during boot.


Very Important Question ⚠️

You mentioned:

"I have already installed Debian 13 Trixie OS on a USB External Hard Disk Drive"

There are two possibilities:

Scenario A

You are booting a Debian Live USB/HDD.

If so, toram will work.

Scenario B

You performed a full Debian installation onto the external HDD.

If so, the toram parameter usually will not work, because it is intended for the Debian Live system.


How to Tell Which One You Have

When Debian finishes booting, open a Terminal and run:

ls /live

If you see directories such as:

config.conf
medium
filesystem.squashfs

then you're running a Live system and toram is applicable.

If you get:

ls: cannot access '/live': No such file or directory

then you're probably running a fully installed Debian system, and a different approach is needed.


Another Quick Check

At the GRUB edit screen, if you see something like:

boot=live

already present on the Linux line, that's a very strong indication you're booting a Live system and toram should work.

For example:

linux /live/vmlinuz boot=live components quiet splash

becomes:

linux /live/vmlinuz boot=live components quiet splash toram


One More Thing

Since you're using an external USB HDD, be patient after adding toram.

What happens is:

  1. Debian reads the compressed filesystem from the HDD.
  2. Copies it into RAM.
  3. Then starts Linux.

So boot time may be longer initially, but after that the system can become very responsive because most reads come from RAM. ๐Ÿš€

If your machine has 8 GB, 16 GB, or more RAM, there's a good chance this will work nicely.

Could you tell me how much RAM your computer has, and also whether you did a Live USB creation or a full Debian installation onto the external HDD? That will let me tell you exactly what result to expect. ๐Ÿ˜Š




_________________________________________________________________________________

Copilot , after i press CTRL + X , it seems to me that the system already booted ………. but how do i know that it is booting to a RAM DRIVE ??? Is there a special Linux command that i could use in order to find out and confirmed that my DEBIAN 13 Trixie OS is booting and GOES STRAIGHT TO THE RAM DRIVE ? Thanks for your answer.

____________________________________________________________________________________


Hi Norizan! ๐Ÿ˜Š

Excellent question! Yes, there are several Linux commands that can help you verify whether the toram boot parameter was actually applied.

Check #1: Verify that toram was passed to the kernel

Open a terminal and run:

cat /proc/cmdline

Look for the word:

toram

Example:

boot=live components quiet splash toram

If you see toram, then GRUB successfully passed the parameter to Debian.


Check #2: See if the Live filesystem is mounted from RAM

Run:

mount | grep live

or

df -h

When toram is working, you may notice filesystems involving:

tmpfs

or

ram

which indicates RAM-backed storage.


Check #3: The "Ultimate Test" ๐Ÿš€

This is my favorite method.

  1. Boot Debian with toram.
  2. Wait until the desktop is fully loaded.
  3. Open a terminal.
  4. Run:

lsblk

Make a note of your external USB HDD, such as:

sdb

  1. Physically disconnect the USB external HDD.

If Debian continues running normally and you can still:

  • Open applications
  • Browse folders
  • Open Terminal

then the Live system has almost certainly been copied into RAM.

If Debian freezes, crashes, or starts reporting missing files, then it is still depending on the external drive.


Check #4: Monitor RAM Usage

Before booting with toram, note your available RAM:

free -h

After booting with toram, run it again.

You may notice several gigabytes of RAM being used because the compressed Debian Live image has been loaded into memory.

For example:

Mem: 16Gi
Used: 5.0Gi

instead of perhaps only 2 or 3 GiB previously.


One Important Clue

You told me your boot menu says:

Live system (amd64)
Live system (amd64 fail-safe mode)

That strongly suggests you're booting a Debian Live system, which is exactly the environment where toram is intended to work. ๐Ÿ‘

So the very first thing I would run is:

cat /proc/cmdline

If you post the output here, I can help you determine right away whether toram was recognized and whether Debian is likely running from RAM. ๐Ÿ˜Š



__________________________________________________________________________________

Hi Copilot , i managed to find out a Linux command which i often used when i was working with KNOPPIX 9.1 !  After booting the KNOPPIX 9.1 to a RAM DRIVE , the Linux command that i used  is " free -h " .   Copilot , is this Linux command sufficient or good enough to find out whether my KNOPPIX 9.1 Operating System really go into the RAM DRIVE ?  

__________________________________________________________________


 Hi Norizan! ๐Ÿ˜Š

Ah yes, I remember KNOPPIX very well. KNOPPIX was actually one of the pioneers of running Linux largely from RAM. ๐Ÿš€

Regarding:

free -h

that's a useful command, but by itself it does not prove that Debian has been loaded into RAM.

For example, you might see:

free -h

output:

               total        used        free
Mem:            16Gi       4.5Gi       8.0Gi

This only tells you how much RAM is being used. It does not tell you why it is being used.

Better Test

Run:

cat /proc/cmdline

If you see:

toram

in the output, then Debian received the instruction.

Then run:

lsblk

to identify your external USB HDD.

Finally, the real proof is this:

  1. Boot with toram.
  2. Wait until Debian is fully loaded.
  3. Open a few applications.
  4. Carefully unplug the external USB HDD.

If Debian continues running normally for several minutes, then the live image has almost certainly been copied into RAM.

This was actually the classic KNOPPIX test many years ago. ๐Ÿ˜„

Another Useful Command

Try:

mount | grep tmpfs

and

df -h

If you see large RAM-backed filesystems (tmpfs) being used, that's another indication that Debian is making heavy use of RAM.

What I Am Curious About

Could you show me the output of:

cat /proc/cmdline

especially after you have booted using the modified GRUB entry with toram added?

That single command will immediately tell us whether Debian accepted the toram parameter or ignored it. ๐Ÿ‘


_______________________________________________________________________________________

Copilot , after i reboot the RAM drive , do i have to key in again the "toram"? THANKS for the answer.

_______________________________________________________________________________________


Hi Norizan! ๐Ÿ˜Š

Yes, if you only added toram temporarily by pressing e in the GRUB menu, then you must enter it again after every reboot.

This is because the change is not saved permanently. GRUB simply uses it for that one boot session.

The sequence is:

  1. Boot menu appears.
  2. Highlight:

Live system (amd64)

  1. Press:

e

  1. Add:

toram

to the Linux boot line.

  1. Press:

Ctrl + X

to boot.

  1. Debian loads into RAM (if toram is supported).

  2. Shut down or reboot.

  3. The next time you start, the toram parameter is gone, so you'll need to add it again.


Quick Way to Verify

After booting, run:

cat /proc/cmdline

If you see:

toram

in the output, then you know you successfully entered it for that boot session.


A Small Experiment ๐Ÿงช

Next time you boot with toram:

cat /proc/cmdline

and

free -h

Then reboot without adding toram and compare the results. You may notice that RAM usage is higher when the live system has been copied into memory.

You're actually reminding me of the classic KNOPPIX days, where many users would boot with toram, wait for the system to load completely, and then unplug the CD/DVD or USB device while continuing to work entirely from RAM! ๐Ÿš€

Linux Operating System DEBIAN 13 _ microsoft-edge browser installation IDIOSYNCRASIES




_________________________________________ 

Hi Copilot , currently i am running DEBIAN 13 OS in my machine and i wanted to install the microsoft-edge browser in my machine but i hit an error message that look something like this " root@debian13:/home/norizan/Downloads# dpkg -i microsoft-edge-stable153.0.4234.48-1amd64.debdpkg: warning: 'ldconfig' not found in PATH or not executabledpkg: warning: 'start-stop-daemon' not found in PATH or not executabledpkg: error: 2 expected programs not found in PATH or not executableNote: root's PATH should usually contain /usr/local/sbin, /usr/sbin and /sbin " ……… so Copilot , could you please help me to troubleshoot this problem ……..THANKS.

___________________________


Hi Norizan ๐Ÿ‘‹,

The good news is that Microsoft Edge is probably not the real problem. The error message indicates that your root user's PATH environment variable is broken or incomplete, so dpkg cannot find important system utilities such as ldconfig and start-stop-daemon. This is a common issue on Debian systems. [stackoverflow.com], [unix.stack...change.com]

Step 1: Check your current root PATH

As root, run:

echo $PATH

A healthy Debian root PATH should look similar to:

/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin

If /usr/sbin or /sbin is missing, that is the cause of the error. [unix.stack...change.com]


Step 2: Temporarily fix the PATH

While still logged in as root:

export PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin

Verify:

echo $PATH

Then try installing Edge again:

dpkg -i microsoft-edge-stable_153.0.4234.48-1_amd64.deb

This temporary PATH fix is often enough to allow dpkg to find ldconfig and start-stop-daemon. [stackoverflow.com], [stackoverflow.com]


Step 3: Verify the programs actually exist

Check that Debian has these files:

which ldconfig
which start-stop-daemon

Or:

ls -l /usr/sbin/ldconfig
ls -l /usr/sbin/start-stop-daemon

You should see something like:

/usr/sbin/ldconfig
/usr/sbin/start-stop-daemon

If they exist, then the issue is definitely PATH-related.


Step 4: Permanently fix root's PATH

Open root's bash configuration:

nano /root/.bashrc

Add this line at the end:

export PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin

Save and reload:

source /root/.bashrc

This is a commonly recommended fix when root's PATH is missing the sbin directories. [stackoverflow.com], [vntweb.co.uk]


Step 5: Install Edge using APT (recommended)

Instead of:

dpkg -i microsoft-edge-stable_153.0.4234.48-1_amd64.deb

try:

apt install ./microsoft-edge-stable_153.0.4234.48-1_amd64.deb

APT automatically resolves dependencies and is usually safer than running dpkg -i directly.


Step 6: Check if sudo configuration was modified

Sometimes the file /etc/sudoers loses its secure_path setting, causing exactly this error. Debian normally contains:

Defaults secure_path="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin"

If this line is missing, root commands executed through sudo may fail to locate system utilities. [unix.stack...change.com]


A quick diagnostic

Please run these four commands and show me the output:

echo $PATH
which ldconfig
which start-stop-daemon
ls -l /usr/sbin/ldconfig /usr/sbin/start-stop-daemon

With those results, I can help pinpoint whether this is just a PATH issue or whether some Debian packages have become damaged. ๐Ÿ˜Š




___________________________

Copilot , does the DEBIAN root path has to be positioned in order , when displayed horizontally ?

___________________________



Yes, Norizan, the order does matter somewhat, but it is usually not the cause of your Edge installation error.

The PATH variable is searched from left to right. When you type a command such as:

ldconfig

Linux looks in the first directory listed in PATH, then the second, then the third, and so on until it finds the executable.

For example:

PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin

means:

  1. Search /usr/local/sbin
  2. Search /usr/local/bin
  3. Search /usr/sbin
  4. Search /usr/bin
  5. Search /sbin
  6. Search /bin

The important thing for your current problem is that these directories are present:

/usr/local/sbin
/usr/sbin
/sbin

because dpkg specifically complained that it could not find ldconfig and start-stop-daemon, which are typically located in /usr/sbin. The error message itself even points to this. [stackoverflow.com], [unix.stack...change.com]

For Debian 13, a healthy root PATH commonly looks like:

/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin

or sometimes:

/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games

Both are generally fine.

Let's verify your system

As root, please run:

echo $PATH

and paste the exact output here.

I have a small suspicion that your PATH may currently look something like:

/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin

with /usr/sbin missing entirely. If that's the case, we can fix it in just a minute and get Microsoft Edge installed successfully. ๐Ÿ˜Š



_____________________________________

THANKS Copilot for your trouble-shooting tips . You know what , after doing this " export PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin " and then checking again with this " echo $PATH " and after that run the software installation again like this " dpkg -i microsoft-edge-stable153.0.4234.48-1amd64.deb " ……….. AHAAAA ! …….. IT WORKS ! Whoooaaaaa ! Thats great ! But Copilot , i am a bit puzzled why this problem happens because i have did a lot of microsoft-edge browser installation ………. this is the first time it is happening to me ! I have not much problem when doing that on a UBUNTU 24.04 OS installation ????!!!!!Anyway , thanks for you answer and looking forward to hear from you again …….. when Grandpa Norizan hit the SOS button again ………HA-HA-HA-HA(Laugh Out Loud).

___________________________


๐Ÿคฃ HA-HA-HA! Grandpa Norizan, you pressed the SOS button and the rescue team arrived just in time!

I'm genuinely glad to hear:

"AHAAAA! ... IT WORKS!"

Those are some of my favorite troubleshooting words. ๐Ÿ˜„

As for why this happened on Debian 13 but not on Ubuntu 24.04, here are a few likely explanations:

1. The root PATH was accidentally modified

At some point, a configuration file may have changed the PATH variable for the root account.

Common places include:

/root/.bashrc
/root/.profile
/etc/profile
/etc/environment

If one of these files contains a custom PATH definition, it can accidentally remove important directories such as:

/usr/sbin
/sbin

When that happens, programs still exist on the disk, but Linux doesn't know where to find them.

Think of it like this:

๐Ÿ  The tools are still in the garage.

๐Ÿšช But somebody removed the garage from the house address book.

So when dpkg asks, "Where is ldconfig?", Linux answers, "Sorry boss, never heard of that address!"


2. Debian and Ubuntu can handle PATH slightly differently

Ubuntu tends to be a little more forgiving in some situations and often sets up root and sudo environments with sensible defaults automatically.

Debian is generally very clean and conservative. If a PATH setting gets altered, Debian is less likely to silently fix it for you.


3. Using su versus su -

This catches many Linux users.

These two commands are not the same:

su

and

su -

The second command loads a full login environment for root, including root's normal PATH.

If you become root using:

su

you may inherit parts of the user's environment, which can occasionally lead to PATH oddities.


4. It could be a one-time environment glitch

Since you've installed Edge many times before, it is also possible that during this particular Debian installation:

  • a shell configuration file was edited,
  • a package changed a profile file,
  • a PATH export command was tested and forgotten,
  • or a copied configuration from another system introduced the issue.

Linux is very obedient. Sometimes too obedient. ๐Ÿ˜„


One thing I would do now

Since the temporary fix worked, check whether the problem survives a reboot.

After rebooting:

su -
echo $PATH

If you see:

/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin

then the system is healthy.

If the directories disappear again, then we know there is a configuration file somewhere that is overwriting the PATH, and we can hunt it down like Linux detectives. ๐Ÿ”Ž๐Ÿง

Anyway, congratulations on getting Microsoft Edge running on Debian 13 Trixie! ๐ŸŽ‰

And don't worry, Grandpa Norizan. Whenever the Linux penguin starts acting mysterious, just hit the SOS button and I'll happily join the investigation. ๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿง๐Ÿ’ป

Linux Operating System DEBIAN 13 _ debian-13.7.0-amd64-DVD-1.iso

 


Linux Operating System DEBIAN 13 _ debian-13.7.0-amd64-DVD-1.iso ..........this .iso  is meant to be burnt into a   DVD-RW  media ,  not to be burnt  into a   flash drive or a  USB  External Hard Disk Drive .......... to prevent my confusion !



P.S.

During the installation process of the Linux Operating System System DEBIAN 13 on a hard Disk Drive , the Hard Disk Drive must be connected to the red-color SATA cable with the power supply cable also connected to the Hard Disk Drive , too. The Hard Disk Drive MUST NOT BE CONNECTED TO THE SOCKET THAT IS ON TOP OF THE INTEL-BASED  MACHINE/MOTHERBOARD or else the DEBIAN 13 OS installation will not work because the DEBIAN 13 OS will not be able to do the Hard Disk Drive partitioning and the installation process will stop.

Can Tablets Replace Laptops ?

 





In my opinion , Tablet cannot replace Laptops , especially Android

Tablets , because Android Tablets use processor/microprocessor that

are use by Smartphones , that is , Snapdragon . Most Laptops in the

market use INTEL processor/microprocessor which is quite strong

and which have intensive computing power. As we probaby know ,

we have INTEL processor/microprocessor with various computing

power inside a Laptop and all this depends on what we wanted to do

with our Laptop and what kind of work we want to do with our

Laptop . Is it just for surfing the Internet and playing casual online

games ? Is it for doing CAD ? Is it for Architecture ? Is it for

Video/Photo Editing ? Is it for serious gaming like what we use to

see in Esports ? There is always an INTEL

processor/microprocessor for every kind of job , INTEL Core i5 ,

INTEL Core i7 , INTEL Core i9 . Unlike Tablets , a Laptop comes

with a large form factor like 14 inches , 15.6 inches , 17 inches ,

and even 21 inches , which makes a Laptop suitable for the kind of

seroius work/job like CAD , Architecture, Video/Photo Editing and

Esports. Recently , Tablet hardware manufacturer have come up

with Tablets that have a screen size of a 15.6 inches Laptop and

14 inches Laptop and among them are the MESWAO 15.6 inches

Android Tablet and the SAMSUNG 14.6 inches Galaxy Tab S8

Ultra . In my opinion , eventhough these 2 machines have large

form factor like a 14.6 inches Laptop and a 15.6 inches Laptop ,

they still cannot replace Laptops which have intensive computing

power.

In my opinion , the only way Tablets can replace Laptops , is when

Tablets are fitted with INTEL processor/microprocessor which have

intensive computing power and Tablets are fitted with various

INTEL processing power (INTEL Core i5 , INTEL Core i7 ,

INTEL Core i9) and Tablets are fitted with various screen sizes

(14 inches , 15.6 inches, 17 inches, 18 inches) and running

Windows 10 Operating Systems or Windows 11 Operating Systems.

In my opinion , machines like the MESWAO 15.6 inches Android

Tablet and the SAMSUNG 14.6 inches Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra can only

emulate a Laptop . Meaning , when these machines are connected

to a Bluetooth/Wireless Keyboard and a Bluetooth/Wireless mouse ,

it emulates a Laptop . As a final say , in my opinion , Tablets cannot

replace Laptops and Laptops cannot replace Tablets. Each of them

have their own strength and weaknesses . Both of them complement

each other . There are times that we want to use a Tablet and there

are times that we want to use a Laptop . Both of them are

here to stay in the market .



I am looking forward one day whereby someone will make a

Laptop/tablet/smartphone(ALL-in-one) machine , a 3-in-one machine ,

or an all-in-one companion/machine which we can use as a Laptop ,

which we can use as a Tablet and BEST OF ALL whih we can use

as a 5G smartphone . This is one machine that has yet to be

invented and I hope I live long enough to see it .

CHEERS and Have A Nice Day.

15.6 inches 5G Tablet  WITH TELEPHONE FUNCTIONALITY LIKE A 5G SMARTPHONE




15.6 inches 5G Tablet  WITH TELEPHONE FUNCTIONALITY LIKE A 5G SMARTPHONE is a  machine which I have envisioned for so many years .

 

15.6 inches 5G Tablet  WITH TELEPHONE FUNCTIONALITY LIKE A 5G SMARTPHONE is a   Laptop/Tablet/Smartphone(All-in-ONE)   machine which I have envisioned for so many years. 

 

15.6 inches 5G Tablet  WITH TELEPHONE FUNCTIONALITY LIKE A 5G SMARTPHONE is a   3-in-ONE  machine  which I have envisioned for so many years.

  

15.6 inches 5G Tablet  WITH TELEPHONE FUNCTIONALITY LIKE A 5G SMARTPHONE is an   ALL-in-ONE   companion machine which I have envisioned for so many years. 


In my opinion , whatever the reasons , the   hardware/software  manufacturer are not making the   15.6 inches 5G Tablet  WITH TELEPHONE FUNCTIONALITY LIKE A 5G SMARTPHONE  , the presence of this kind of machine in the market , will not make    "a final nail in the coffin"  for the Smartphone Sales ,    will not make    "a final nail in the coffin"  for the  traditional  Tablet Sales , and  will not make    "a final nail in the coffin"  for the Laptop Sales.

In my opinion , the presence of the  15.6 inches 5G Tablet  WITH TELEPHONE FUNCTIONALITY LIKE A 5G SMARTPHONE  is to complement the sales of the traditional 5G smartphones , is to complement the sales of the traditional Tablets/5G Tablets and to complement the sales of the traditional   Laptops/5G Laptops .  In my opinion , the presence of the  15.6 inches 5G Tablet  WITH TELEPHONE FUNCTIONALITY LIKE A 5G SMARTPHONE  will not drop the sales of the  traditional 5G smartphones , will not drop the sales of the traditional Tablets/5G Tablets , will not drop the sales of the  traditional   Laptops/5G Laptops  .  Similarly , in my opinion , as a simple analogy, THE MAKING OF BIG CARS WILL NOT DROP THE SALES OF SMALL CARS .  The presence of BIG CARS on the road is to complement the  SMALL CARS .  So much so , SMALL CAR LOVERS  should not tell the car manufacturer to STOP MAKING BIG CARS  and at the same time ,  BIG CAR LOVERS should not tell the car manufacturer to  STOP MAKING SMALL CARS .    BIG CARS or SMALL CARS ,  they have a place in a Consumers Heart .  In my opinion , as I see it today , as of September 2026 , the Automotive Industry still make BIG CARS and at the same time ,  the Automotive Industry also make SMALL CARS.    

In my opinion , I guess this same analogy or same reasoning can be applied to  5G Smartphone manufacturer and   Tablet/5G   Tablets    manufacturer.  Besides making the traditional 5G smartphones , 5G smartphone manufacturer should also  make   15.6 inches 5G smartphone  for those who love  BIG SMARTPHONES or HUGE SMARTPHONES .   And  Tablet/5G  Tablets   manufacturer  should also make   15.6 inches 5G tablet  WITH TELEPHONE FUNCTIONALITY LIKE A 5G SMARTPHONE  for those who love  BIG TABLETS or  HUGE TABLETS  that can do voice-calling like a 5G smartphone which can   serve/emulate as a  Laptop( a  15.6 inches Laptop) , which can serve as a  Tablet(a  15.6 inches Tablet) and  BEST OF ALL  it can serve as a  5G smartphone ........ a  huge/big   5G smartphone .......... a   15.6 inches  5G smartphone.       



There are no specific videos of 15.6-inch 5G tablets with native telephone functionality in the provided search context, as the available information primarily highlights smaller or different form factors.  Most tablets with cellular data do not support native voice calls, a limitation particularly noted in the North American market where carriers often strip voice features to protect smartphone sales. 

Key details regarding large or capable tablets include:

  • Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra: This is a 14.6-inch premium Android tablet (released 2023) that supports 5G connectivity with SIM/eSIM support and can make native phone calls and send texts via cellular networks, functioning similarly to a large smartphone. 

  • Huawei MatePad Pro 12.6: Released in 2024, this 12.6-inch tablet features 5G support and can handle voice calls with a SIM card, offering a larger screen than typical phablets but smaller than 15.6-inch models. 

  • Market Limitations: While some users report using tablets like the Samsung Tab S6 Lite or S10+ for calls in Europe, US models often lack this capability. Additionally, carriers like T-Mobile have discontinued GSM support (essential for traditional tablet voice calls) in favor of VoLTE/VoWiFi, further restricting native calling on many LTE/5G tablets in the US.

  • Niche/Imported Options: Some users mention importing tablets like the Oukitel OT5 or Blackview Mega 12 which support calling, but these are typically smaller or have mixed reviews regarding support and UI refinement. No 15.6-inch model with verified native calling is listed. 

To find a 15.6-inch tablet with true 5G voice calling, you would likely need to look for imported Android models (outside the US market) or use VoIP apps (like WhatsApp or Skype) on any 5G tablet, as native PSTN voice support is increasingly rare in large-screen devices in major Western markets.
