The simplified model of the flagship Galaxy Tab S6 turned out to be quite solid. Externally it is still the same device with thin and neat frames around the display, enclosed in a metal case with a thickness of only 7 mm. The main differences between the devices are inside, and the difference in cost is 100%.

Instead of the flagship Snapdragon 855, the Galaxy Tab S6 Lite uses an average performance chipset Exynos 7 Octa 9611 with frequencies up to 2.3 GHz, consisting of 4 powerful cores Cortex-A73 and 4 energy-efficient Cortex-A53. The tablet has up to 4 GB of fast LPDDR4X and 64/128 GB of RAM on an internal storage device with card support. Although the displays in both devices are almost the same diagonally (Galaxy Tab S6 10.5" and Lite 10.4"), they actually differ significantly. Firstly, the resolution has decreased from 2560x1600 dots to 2000x1200 dots, and secondly, an IPS matrix is used instead of AMOLED. The display of the Galaxy Tab S6 Lite is excellent, but still, it is one step lower than the one installed in the flagship model.

The cameras have also been cut down. Instead of 12 MP + 5 MP (width), the Galaxy Tab S6 Lite now only uses a single 7 MP photo module. The front camera offers a 5 MP sensor and face unlocking capability. The great news is that the stereo is nowhere to go and there is support for both Dolby Atmos and AKG audio. However, instead of 4 loudspeakers, only 2 are used now.

The Galaxy Tab S6 Lite has all the necessary wireless technologies such as dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.0, NFC, GPS module. Also in the tablet there is a 3.5 mm jack for headphones and a connector for charging and data transfer standard Type-C version 3.1. Battery capacity is 7040 mAh and supports fast-charging up to 15 W. Support for the S-Pen stylus is also announced. The price of the Galaxy Tab S6 Lite is 422 dollars per basic version.
