Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite Review: our opinion, our laboratory measurements

[ad_1]

Aesthetically, the Tab S6 Lite looks exactly like the Galaxy Tab S6. The design introduced with the Samsung Galaxy Tab S5e has proven itself and offers a polished finish to the recent tablets of the South Korean firm. The Tab S6 Lite keeps more or less the same dimensions as its big sister and gains a little thickness (7 mm against 5.7 mm). She is also a bit overweight (465 g against 420 g for the Tab S6).

Visually, the front does not change much. But Samsung preferred to offer here an LCD panel instead of the Oled present on the two other tablets mentioned earlier. The display is a bit smaller and increases to 10.4 inches. Which brings a lower occupancy rate (78%) and a 5: 3 ratio.

Finally, it is on the back that the biggest changes are visible. The concave space reserved for recharging the stylus disappears, as does the second photo sensor. If there is indeed an S-Pen with the tablet, it does not offer as many possibilities as that of the Galaxy Tab S6. It is however posed by magnetism on the right edge, which makes it possible not to lose it when it is not used.

In terms of ergonomics, the Galaxy Tab S6 Lite is convincing, thanks in particular to its 5: 3 format, ideal for reading. The volume and lock buttons, positioned on the right edge, are easily accessible. For its part, the S-Pen remains as relevant and precise as ever. Only biometric recognition spoils the party. The absence of a fingerprint sensor and true facial recognition pushes us to return to the diagrams, PIN code and other passwords.

Audio

The Tab S6 Lite offers a 3.5 mm mini-jack socket. It seems that Samsung did not bother too much with the settings since our measurements are almost identical to those noted on the S5e. The latter delivers good power, which may be suitable for a good number of helmets. No complaints about the distortion and the dynamics which are excellent. On the other hand, the problem of stereo reproduction does not seem to have been solved. The latter is still just as bad.

Positioned on the upper and lower sections in portrait mode, the two speakers offer a pleasant experience. The delivered sound manages to keep its clarity even at the highest volume levels. We only regret moderate power. However, they allow a comfortable viewing of a series or a film.
