Samsung has announced
its flagship tablet known as Galaxy Tab S6. The new tablet comes with a handful
pf improvements compared to its predecessor, and these are not necessarily
hardware-related. Read on as you will get to see the Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 full specification, features, and price you
can buy it from stores.
Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Features
The Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 is powered by the latest Snapdragon 855
chipset paired with either 6GB or 8GB RAM, depending on the memory options you
wish to buy. The storage options are 128GB and 256GB which can be expanded
further via a microSD card slot.
The tablet is built
around a 10.5 inch Super AMOLED display with 2560 x 1600pixel resolution, and
16:10 aspect ratio. The multimedia department is also top notch as quad
speakers tuned by AKG and Dolby Atmos make the whole movie-watching experience
to be worth-while.

Adding to our amazement,
the Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 comes with
two cameras on its back. The main camera is 13MP while the secondary unit has
ultra-wide 123-degree field of view. At the front you will find an 8MP camera
for taking selfies and video calls. The Galaxy
Tab S6 is the first tablet coming with an ultra wide-angle camera.
The tablet is powered by
a 7040mAh battery while its S Pen holds a small 0.35mAh charge which is still
enough to serve about 10 hours of operation. The most exciting part is that the
stylus can charge in just ten minutes spent in its own dock.
Still talking about the S Pen, it can now work as a remote control for your multimedia player or when taking photos. Basically, it does the same functions as the S Pen on the Galaxy Note9.
Additionally, the Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 supports
Samsung’s DeX which combined with the Book Cover Keyboard can turn into a PC
for better productivity and multi-tasking. For security, Samsung has added an
optical fingerprint reader under the screen making the tablet one of the first,
if not the first, in its category to adopt the tech.
Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Price and Availability
The Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 price starts at $649 for the 6GB RAM and 128GB storage version while the
8/256GB variant will go for $729. The tablet will be available in three colours
– Cloud Blue, Mountain Gray, and Rose Blush.
