I recommend a flip case instead of a matte screen protector.

Besides, a matte screen protector will affect the visual quality of the display which isn't that terrific to begin with. You can get a matte screen protector but I'm not sure how that will affect the durability of the pen nib. On scale of 1 to 5 in terms of how slippery it is, where 5 is slippery, it's maybe a 4? It will take sometime getting used to the smoothness. The nib is medium soft and glides smoothly on the glass. The functionality of the side button depends on the drawing app you use and I found that many drawing apps don't use the button or don't allow much customisation for that button. Thankfully, Samsung has finally made it possible to remove the floating pen icon and Air Command that are activated by the side button. The flat side of the S Pen can attach to the side of the tablet, the side where the buttons are.Īs usual, S Pen only has one side button which is still easy to press accidentally. The S Pen supports tilt and pressure sensitivity. The S Pen could certainly be thicker, like as thick as a typical wooden pencil, but it's not that thin so that's the consolation. The included S Pen is not powered by battery so it doesn't require charging. The box comes with an S Pen, USB-C charging cable, wall charger, earbuds and quick start guide.Įarbuds may or may not be included depending on your country. There are stereo speakers, 3.5mm headphone jack and a micro SD card slot. The important thing to know is this tablet is powered by Exynos 9611 (Octa-core (4x2.3 GHz Cortex-A73 & 4x1.7 GHz Cortex-A53)) instead of Snapdragon, has 4GB RAM and starts with 64GB storage. This review will make constant comparison with the Samsung Tab S6 which was released in August 2019. To see all the specs, it's all there on gsmarena, and so are the Tab S6 specs.

My review is from the perspective of an artist so I won't be talking about gaming. It sucks that the pricing strategy in Singapore is based on what the market can afford. The S$499 student price which works out to be around US $351. My unit was bought in Singapore for S$599 from hachi.tech which is owned by Challenger.

Official retail price for the wifi-only model is US$349. The Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite is the budget version of the Galaxy Tab S6 ( video review). I've been testing the Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite for a few days now since the unboxing video and my excitement has tapered off.
