Samsung’s Galaxy Tab S6 is the best Android tablet on the market. It has a 10.5-inch AMOLED display, dual rear cameras. It has a speedy Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 processor with 6GB or 8GB of RAM paired with either 128GB or 256GB of storage. A microSD card slot can expand storage another 512GB.
Samsung makes great hardware and Tab S6 is no exception. It weighs less than one pound and it is simple and convenient to carry for long periods.
Samsung’s recent DeX updates even make the Tab S6 a more viable laptop replacement than previous models. The S6 tab is lighter and thinner compared to the previous S4 Tab, although it has the same 10.5-inch AMOLED display. Tab S6 has thinner bezels and angled corners, which makes it look more sleek than the iPad Pro.
The only charging option is the USB-C port. No headphone jack, but the four AKG-tuned speakers offer a sufficient sonic power. The older Tab S4 had a 7,300-mAh battery in terms of battery life compared to the S6’s 7,040-mAh.
Samsung says the Tab S4 has provided approximately 16 hours of use and the new S6 offers 15 hours. In our test, the battery lasted for 10 hours 59 minutes in our streaming video test. The Tab S6 supports the stylus, same as the Galaxy Note series phones. The S Pen is easy to use and sticks to the tablet magnetically well. It connects with the tablet via Bluetooth so you can use it for PowerPoint presentations or to take snapshots with the camera.
The S pen is still an excellent tool on a tablet to sketch or take handwritten notes. You can now make certain actions by scrolling through media, changing the camera settings or adjusting the volume on the S6 by moving the S Pen through the air.

The sold-separately keyboard cover comes in two parts: One attaches to the back and covers the S pen and helps you to safeguard the S pen. The other hand is a keyboard attached to the connector on the left side of the tablet that magnetically snaps on the pins. A laptop-like trackpad, and a set of function keys with a fast-launch button are added to the new keyboard for DeX. The trackpad, just like the Microsoft Surface tablets, allows you to use a mouse cursor
The keyboard costs $180 separately, but you can get it for half price if you order it bundled with the tablet.
