I am getting the Tab S6 Lite for my birthday and i could not be more happy to see you praise it so much! You are the one who introduced me to the S6 Lite for the first time and as soon as I heard about it, I knew it was the one for me.
Got me an S6 Lite last year, and I am completely in love. I do not use it for professional drawing tho, but for entry level it's great. Also, I can use it with superdisplay to connect it to my computer and draw through it, it's amazing. I really am glad I found this channel, otherwise I would have not even considered getting into tablets. Thank you, Brad! 😊
I have both the S7+ and the new iPad Air 4. I find myself reaching for the Air more often just because of the smaller form factor, but when I go back to the S7+ I'm always blown away by the screen. I don't know what magic they're using, but it really shows.
All hail the s-Pen. I've been using tab s6 lite since November of last year, I don't regret getting it. I'm not the best artist but this is an incredible tablet. The s pen was my favorite part since the very beginning.
$250 is a STEAL. Been wanting a portable tablet for a while now, and up until recently, it seemed the iPad was the only decent option, but look at THESE!
I was thinking the same thing! Even now with black friday. It's definitely a steal, not only for it's price, but what it has in store. I was thinking about getting the Tab s6, but realized that the lite was basically the same size, but just a little slower. So it's really a win-win situation, you get a relatively similar sized tablet to the normal s6, great screen, battery and processor, including the S-Pen mind you, for a really low price!
@Rando Weeb The performance is really good on the Lite! I use the S7+ but inherited a S6 Lite. I prefer the Lite for taking notes. It also has better battery life and temperature control. CSP would probably run well on it (haven't tried since I don't have a multi-device license) but would likely lag if you have too many layers. I definitely prefer watching vids on the S6 Lite. The S7+ is a bit unwieldy in size for bumming around on YT and whatnot, unless you put it on a stand. If you have any more specific questions I can try and answer them for you!

It already exists in the app. We are more specific with our use of terminology than other apps with regards to this setting. To see the setting in action, open up Sprayers > Hard Round. To activate pressure opacity you need to turn on Glaze in the Head settings and turn on Flow Pressure. Glaze keeps the transparency from building up when the heads are stamped on top of each other. We use the term Opacity in the Stroke settings because it is the opacity of the whole stroke. Just like how blend mode is the blend mode for the whole stroke. Both of these settings treat the brush stroke as if it were being drawn on a separate layer and then merged to the existing layer when finished. Because of this, these are the stroke layer settings which are applied only once when the stroke is merged with the current layer. This is why many of the Stroke settings cannot utilize dynamics like pressure because those dynamics apply to each stamped brush head that make up the stroke. "

@@bwedges thanks for the advice bro i was planning to buy a ipad(with a budget lol) or the tab s7 but since you were saying that the ipad is better, you changed my mind
@Joey People keep saying that, but I have to disagree. The S7 is still almost twice the launch price of the S6 lite, and closer to three times its on-sale price. Also, Samsung typically launches the lite versions (S5e and S6 lite) in spring. While it is nice to have more variation with the S7, I'd really like to see some of the latest improvements in a more wallet-friendly package.
I picked up a Tab S6 Lite and love everything about it. I've always been on the android ecosystem and did a little research before picking up the tablet. Took a look at all the models at Best buy to compare them side to side as well as the accessories. I then gave myself some time to see what came up for sale used and someone listed a brand new unopened S6 Lite for $275. This was months ago when they were $429. Scored......
samsung lite 6 is great but up grade to 7 plus : the performance and dex makes it unique i dont use the key board, only at home, rather use the key board on samsung 6 , it a lot easier to work on samsung 7plus dont get samsung 7 , inch and half makes a difference. i take work pictures and organize them to my clients it has already paid for itself. Dont get rid of samsung 6 use it as practice plus traveling short trips
I have been using s6 lite for a while and i really enjoy it actually! I only use it to read, take notes and watch videos, works perfectly. In my opinion, really a good tablet for the price :D
It’s not that basic. The way these chips are broken up into different cores, it’s really task dependent. It’s basically marketing speek. The new chip in one task may be 10% faster, but overall that’s not the case. Apple does this too. 5 years ago when you wanted drawing tech you really had to get top spec devices, now though, we have reached the top of what we need a while ago and you can save money. As an Example, the iPad Pro is awesome, but not $500 better than the entry level iPad. Especially for drawing.

Congrats on your purchase! I got the Tab S6 Lite for 300$ and it's way better than I thought ! I watched a lot of videos about this tablet on youtube and I was like "OK, it's a good value for the money", then after seeing it in person and holding it in my hands "Woah ! Is this just for 300$ ?" It feels almost as premium as the more expensive galaxy Tab S6, it perfoms smoothly without any lag and Samsung promised 3 OS updates so I'm very happy with my decision.

im glad that you are happy for your tab s7 but let me ask you a question is it worth it to not have procreate? and even tho there is no procreate on an android tab, what drawing app do you use
@LOJOBOY385 Well I'm more of a person that likes to draw occasionally (not a pro by any means), and I feel more comfortable using the Adobe Suite on a desktop when I really want to make something. So the S7+ was more of an "extra" device for me, which I use more for content consumption and for writing notes. I use Clip Studio Paint on it, which is an incredibly full-featured and professional program. Procreate is probably the best drawing app out there but Clip Studio is a real game-changer for Android. The lower price of the Galaxy Tab made it a really appealing option, plus it's great that the pen is already included.
@@lojoboy3854 procreate is not some magic software, it is a easy to use software that is cheap which is why most people use it. Clip studio paint is a professional industry grade powerhouse with 100% desktop capabilities and can paint+animate+publish books+basic 3d. Nobody will use procreate over CSP for serious work
and why are android tablets are so underrated like they are dangerous to buy or something, because the ipad is so popular that literally nobody buys the tabs anymore:( kinda losing hope for the tab s7 tho

I have the tab s6. The size is perfect for me. The display is amazing too. I just wished it had a headphone jack. I don't know what stupid decisions companies make sometimes to remove 3.5mm from their premium line and put it in their budget line. A premium phone/tablet should have all the specs one needs.
This is like a year late but for those reading this in the future, it's probably because of the idea that "if you can afford our premium line of tablets/phones, then SURELY you can afford our expensive TWS earbuds too!" whereas budget consumers usually don't care or can't afford any extra stuff, they just want a working phone/tablet and nothing else. That doesn't make it any less wrong though, it's still a very greedy move and how they nickel and dime their "premium consumers" as much as they could.
I ordered a Galaxy S6 lite to get me started on getting serious about digital art. I was eyeing an iPad Air, but the price made me hesitate. At least this way I can really dig my hands in without being out a ton of money in case.
I bought the Tab S6 lite based on the review video you did when it first came out, and I'm so happy with it. I'd like to eventually upgrade to the 7+ but the 6 has been really great this entire time.
got a tab s7+ and i'm loving it. Got it for 2 days now and Clip studio is great set it up like i have my drawing apps set up on my pc and it's really nice to use
I got Samsung's galaxy tab S6 Lite last year when it released for med school🥺 I've never used Apple products so I can't compare but the quality until now is still really good!❤️
I had been using the Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.0 from 2013. I recently graduated college (better late than never) and I wanted to give myself a new drawing tablet as a graduation gift. I watched tons of videos, but yours convinced me to get the Tab S6 Lite. I would have loved the S7 or S7+, but I couldn't justify spending that much since I'm still an amateur. Thank you so much for the great content!
I bought the s6 lite earlier this year when it came out and i absolutely love it, no regrets, i can do so much with it past just drawing. But the S7+ looks appealing simply because of the bigger screen, and my lil s6 lite can be a bit tiny when im typing up papers 😅
I was torn between the tab s6, tab s7, and tab s7+ but ended up getting the s7+. I currently have a tab s3 which wasn't too bad with android 7, though the disk space was tiny. Installing android 9 on it slowed it down big time and there was some burn in. I can't wait to try out the new tablet once it comes.
Bought it for 1048 AED that is 285 dollars which is a really good price for this tab, i had ipad 6th generation earlier which was an awesome tablet, but for media consumption it wasn't that good and it also miss many small features that matters a lot like floating windows and the option to make them transparent and etc.
Samsung really brought their A++ game with this Tab S7+. DeX is a major reason why I'm thinking about eventually replacing my Surface Pro with the Galaxy Tab S line. Really been loving the functionality on my 2017 Note 8. But I want Samsung to first do the following: - *Bring* *Back* *Linux* *on* *DeX!* Or better yet, enable the native installation and running of Linux Desktop apps in DeX mode. It makes much more sense for this kind of form factor and would be a great gateway for full-fledged Desktop apps on the Galaxy Tab line. Plus, as Apple demonstrated the full-fledged macOS Big Sur running on their 2 years old A12Z Bionic chipset from their iPad Pro line during their WWDC 2020 keynote, Linux on DeX will certainly be required to compete with that level of versatility. - Add a second USB C port or full-sized USB A port for USB accessories while charging. - Add a 3.5mm headphone jack for use while in flights or while our wireless headphones are charging. - Make the keyboard cover accessory backlit and add angular typing like the Surface Pro line. - Equip it with 16GB of RAM If they implement all of the above, it'll be the first Android tablet I'll ever purchase. Will proudly replace my Surface Pro with it. My once in a blue-moon need for Windows applications will be perfectly served by my QNAP NAS. That need will only be shrinking as devs make their Android apps big-screen friendly, and port over their full-fledged Windows apps; literally NOTHING Windows can do, can't be replicated, and possibly made even more versatile on Android. Until then, sticking with my Surface Pro 2.
well i m a time traveler, and S6 lite fullfits my 2014 dreams as a tablet for that budget :-) . I will tell you about the Tab 2 X in a couple of years tho ;-)
For those wondering ltps display still looks amazing. I'm picky about tech and tend to complain easily, but this display still passed my expectations with flying colors.
Have you done some video editing in it? I'm trying to replace the dry potato I have for a laptop (trust me, it's that trashy). I'm not doing anything that heavy but I just want to be able to do creative stuff.
@@angelmora3660 I have not tried video editing on it. Honestly I'm no sure how well it would do it. I would look up specific videos on video editing for Android. If I have some free time I could try it out of you really can't find anything else out there
I have to say it's a very good review. You answered all my questions. I was looking for a note-taking tab. I probably go with S6 Lite, the cause seems the newest a bit and cheaper. Drawing seem so cool, I'm considering star drawing sometime for fun
I have to highly disagree with the choices, I went for the Tab S6 256GB in 2023, because on Android..LCD doesn't look as good or clear as on iPhones or iPads, I need OLED on Android, I also got the 8GB of Ram, I got 4 AKG tuned speakers unlike the Lite, and I didn't want to spend over $1000 on the S7 or S8 currently available now and I love my Tab 😁
Because your videos I have gone back and forth between iPad and s6 lite. What sold me was a few weeks ago the android dropped in price and you showed infinite painter. Im in love with mine im finally digitally drawing 😍
I wish this had came out just a few weeks earlier. I just bought a s6 for drawing and work. I was on the fence for weeks trying to find the best I could get for my money. Loving the s6 so far. Kinda had some hiccups on TH-cam of all things but that was when TH-cam was doing some updates and everyone was having different problems.
Same. Thought they had it with their Alpha because it was initially listed to be pen enabled (but no pen in the box). Unfortunately when it was released it was removed. Hoping next year will be the year.
try looking at hp envy x360 computers with supportive pen, an acer spin laptop, Microsoft surface Go devices, used or renewed microsoft surface laptops and tablets.
Woaw Super Nice Review. This is the Best Tablet that I've Have in My Life, S7+ is Successor of Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 2014 Edition, I still have this Note in My Desk!!! I Bought 2 Pair of this S7+ for My Main Daily Driver & the Second one is for Back Up 😍😍😍 Big Cute Sexy Android Tablet with Freedom Customization Android Os, the Ecosystem is Super Compatible with My Personal Taste especially in DEX Mode. The 16 : 10 Screen Ratio is Perfect for Watching FullScreen Movies, Videos, TH-cam & Netflix without having Black Bar Upside Down. I always Put both of Them inside My Bag & Going Around in Outdoor Caffe & also for Traveling!!! Always Love Samsung Peripheral Devices Yay 🙌🙌🙌
Great review Brad. I was contemplating the Tab A w/ S Pen. I have the iPad Pro and Samsung tab S3 but wanted something more portable. I might just wait to see what Apple does with the Mini next year or if they update that 8” tablet.
My only holdup is that Apple may release a mini with a bigger screen in the same body size so smaller bezels next year. Not sure if they'll use the first gen pencil which I have or the 2nd version.
Hey Brad, great comparison on the Samsung Tab Series of tablets. I just picked up my Tab S7 128GB Mystic Black for $423 open box fair at Best Buy. Honestly, its in flawless shape and has full 1 year warranty from Samsung. If you can get the Tab S7 for a discount, its a great buy :-)
the TFT display is super vivid i promise you, you will enjoy this panel just as much as the Super Amoled, both have HDR10 and 120hz, I love my tab s7 what a beast and again the screen is amazing
As the cloud gaming services become more relevant, tablets with bigger screens will get much more attention. I have a Galaxy Tab S6 and I sometimes play AAA games with cloud gaming on it. And I wish I had a bigger screen.
You're making me feel old. I absolutely agree that it is crazy to have a display tablet for $250 (unfortunately it is £300 in the UK) these days. I remember when I used to lust over the 12 inch Wacom Cintiq, I think it was like $1.2/£1k. Then eventually I bought a Samsung tablet PC in 2012 for £1k. It was okay, functional but not great. Then in 2014 I got the Wacom Cintiq 13HD for £580, I thought it was steal considering these things were £1k 5 years ago. Got a Samsung tab android tablet in 2015, it was awful (due to lack of good art apps and s pen was not great then) and ended up just collecting dust.
@Pao Rodriguez which do you prefer,the ipad air 4 which is expensive af and it does have procreate or the tab s7 which is cheaper but it does not have procreate:(
@Ezekiel Aquino but did you tried procreate? ,if you do can you tell me the difference that will be much appreciated;) (i said this because im trying not to bother you lol)
@Pao Rodriguez well I've been researching for weeks, now i had officially made my mind and im gonna pick the tab s7, after hours of damn research to pick the perfect one either the ipad or the tab and thanks to you too for helping me out :) (the thing is that im not buying it until January lol)
@Ezekiel Aquino your right actually i tried infinite painter and its really like procreate but....i haven't tried procreate tho😂, and are there more drawing apps that are good and also paid apps too
One thing you didnt mention is people who use Microsoft products will find Galaxy devices more effective. I use note taking on my note 10+ on OneNote app for Microsoft and I have to draw illustrations as well and it pays off pretty well because it is just as optimised as samsung notes. Perfect for students
As someone who just bought a used, but good as new Tab s6 with keyboard cover for 430€, I disagree on the lack of recommendation! You can get great bargains on last year's devices and the difference to the S7 is miniscule in practice.
I'm getting older and have trouble with small text: e-textbooks, PDFs, and digital comics. I have been looking for a larger Android tablet for years. I was on the verge of buying an iPad when the Tab S7+ was announced. Now that I have it, it's amazing for my purposes. Small text is so much easier to read! Warning: the Snapdragon 865 has bad GPS accuracy. Thankfully, almost no one cares about GPS accuracy on a tablet.
@@xorsama I think there are some you can use but you'd have to check if it's compatible. There are even some non Wacom ones you can use but again, you'd have to check if that model is compatible
@@raxxie ohh i see... Thanks, usually from my experience i could use all my wacom pens interchangeably.. like i could use my cintiq pen with intuos n the other way round so i thought if that applied to this tab too
I've been drawing on a 2017 iPad with procreate and I've been looking to buy a new tablet, but on a budget. An iPad Pro is NOT within my means. The Galaxy Tab S6 Lite (2022) caught my eye, but I have to admit, I've been spoiled by procreate. That app being only on iPads is a sore spot for me. I also tried drawing on an xp pen artist 12 and let me tell you, I cannot deal with the lack of gesture controls, specifically zooming and canvas rotation.
Hey Brad, I'm from the UK and got my tab s6 lite for £229! Honestly such a good tablet for the money. S-pen/split screen/digital notes/samsung notes is what I use my tablet for most. I'll only invest a lot of money into an android tablet once their Pro level apps match/surpass the ipad options. Any chance you could make a video on the updated Samsung Notes app?
I got the Tab s6 lite for my wife 3 months ago for around $200. It replaced her Tab A 10.1. Even she is a below average tablet user and has no demand in processing power, a mid range tablet only lasts 3 years. It would be likely the case for the S6 Lite. For me, I went from Note8.0 to TabA 9.7 to Tab S4and now S7. The longer support of the new flagships are certainly good news for me.
Thanks Brad. I’m not into drawing, but love my dj apps and producer apps. I have an iPad Air and found that with my downloaded music, it doesn’t like it. I like the freedom of Android and pc. I’m thinking of getting the S6 lite. A couple of reasons, one it has a headphone jack, others don’t and the ability to expand up to 1t sd card. Thanks again.
I wish, Samsung would make a new Galaxy Book Tablet. Newest Intel Processor, full Windows 10, 120Hz LCD (not OLED) with similar pixel density like S7 and no fans. That would be such a dream-device for drawing.
@Joey Especially for drawing OLED is absolutely terrible, because there will be burn-in sooner or later. Also the iPad Pro has an LCD panel. The colors are more accurate than on the current Samsung devices (although that has more to do with calibration than display technology), and it just looks very good. You don't need the contrast of OLEd for drawing. It offers no benefit.
@@lojoboy3854 yeah its pretty good. Pen pressure takes some getting used too but its still pretty solid. I use clip studio paint and the only major complaint that I have with the tablet is the fact that it tends to go through a lot of battery. The battery life is pretty alright but that app in particular will really put a strain on the tablet. I've noticed is that palm rejection needs a bit of work. I'd draw for a good hour and throughout that time, I'd have to erase little markings from palm. The pinch motion to resize the canvas also has a fairly noticeable delay, about a second or two and thats with all other apps not running. Overall I'd say if you have the money to spend, get the tab s7+. Their are still some quirks that need to be ironed out but I'm sure Samsung will have these issues resolved in the coming months, especially given how much they want to push the tab brand.
Can u do a video covering every iPad that works with apple pencil? I'm on a really tight budget but need an ipad compatible with apple pencil and procreate to do digital art on the go. So I'm talking a comparison between: iPad (6th, 7th, and 8th generation) iPad Air (3rd generation) iPad mini (5th generation) iPad Pro 12.9-inch (1st and 2nd generation) iPad Pro 10.5-inch iPad Pro 9.7-inch
Got the Tab S7 for $300 with their samsung student week and a credit card bonus. It is an amazing device, but it is so big. I play with the iPad pro at work so I thought this wouldn't be that big, but damn. Love the S-pen, the screen is amazing, and even though I prefer ios, good value for my graduation gift to myself.
I'm telling you. You CANNOT Sleep on the Tab S4. It completely crushes the Tab S6 Lite in every way except Software Updates. And it does more than well on A10. I have both the S4 and S6 Lite and I far prefer to use the S4 every single time.
An Android drawing tablet like that is not just more portable than a desktop tablet, but you also get touch support. Pan and zoom with multi-touch. None of the cheaper desktop pen screen tablets offer that. The ones that do (Cintiq Touch, MS Surface) cost thousands.
Nice video!👍🏾 What app are you using @9:51? I recently purchased the Tab S7+. I want to get back into drawing as a hobby, but I have no idea which app to choose as my goto app. I would like to get into your style of art. Years ago, I mainly drew with pencil so drawing digitally will be an interesting challenge.
Tab S4 is also out there...300dpi A3 size works fine on artflow studio with 23-24 layers...By the way clip studio paint is the most stable app right now for creating big size canvases...
PERFECT TIMING! Thanks for sharing this info. I am in the market for a new digital device after recently discovering the S Pen with the Note 20 Ultra, but it's a strain to draw on for long periods. I was divided between the Tab S7+ and the Notebook Flex. Decided on the Flex, but won't be able to swing the cost until later in 2021. The Tab S6 Lite is the perfect affordable holdover for my situation and will make it much easier to stay productive until I can grab the Flex. 🤙

Glaze keeps the transparency from building up when the heads are stamped on top of each other. We use the term Opacity in the Stroke settings because it is the opacity of the whole stroke. Just like how blend mode is the blend mode for the whole stroke. Both of these settings treat the brush stroke as if it were being drawn on a separate layer and then merged to the existing layer when finished. Because of this, these are the stroke layer settings which are applied only once when the stroke is merged with the current layer. This is why many of the Stroke settings cannot utilize dynamics like pressure because those dynamics apply to each stamped brush head that make up the stroke. "
At least drop Affinity products or Adobe products on Android and then boom....i will never thinking about iPad anymore.

@@bwedges thanks for the advice bro i was planning to buy a ipad(with a budget lol) or the tab s7 but since you were saying that the ipad is better, you changed my mind
Lol, I have the s6 lite, is not too bad just for surfing the web.
@Joey People keep saying that, but I have to disagree. The S7 is still almost twice the launch price of the S6 lite, and closer to three times its on-sale price. Also, Samsung typically launches the lite versions (S5e and S6 lite) in spring. While it is nice to have more variation with the S7, I'd really like to see some of the latest improvements in a more wallet-friendly package.
I picked up a Tab S6 Lite and love everything about it. I've always been on the android ecosystem and did a little research before picking up the tablet. Took a look at all the models at Best buy to compare them side to side as well as the accessories. I then gave myself some time to see what came up for sale used and someone listed a brand new unopened S6 Lite for $275. This was months ago when they were $429. Scored......
samsung lite 6 is great but up grade to 7 plus : the performance and dex makes it unique i dont use the key board, only at home, rather use the key board on samsung 6 , it a lot easier to work on samsung 7plus dont get samsung 7 , inch and half makes a difference.
i take work pictures and organize them to my clients it has already paid for itself. Dont get rid of samsung 6 use it as practice plus traveling short trips
I have been using s6 lite for a while and i really enjoy it actually! I only use it to read, take notes and watch videos, works perfectly. In my opinion, really a good tablet for the price :D
How about now, after a long time, are you satisfied with the performance and note taking?
Just wanted to mention, that tab s7 and s7+ are both running with 865+ which is 10%+~ performance difference with 865
It’s not that basic. The way these chips are broken up into different cores, it’s really task dependent.
It’s basically marketing speek. The new chip in one task may be 10% faster, but overall that’s not the case.
Apple does this too. 5 years ago when you wanted drawing tech you really had to get top spec devices, now though, we have reached the top of what we need a while ago and you can save money.
As an Example, the iPad Pro is awesome, but not $500 better than the entry level iPad. Especially for drawing.

im glad that you are happy for your tab s7 but let me ask you a question is it worth it to not have procreate? and even tho there is no procreate on an android tab, what drawing app do you use
@LOJOBOY385 Well I'm more of a person that likes to draw occasionally (not a pro by any means), and I feel more comfortable using the Adobe Suite on a desktop when I really want to make something. So the S7+ was more of an "extra" device for me, which I use more for content consumption and for writing notes.
I use Clip Studio Paint on it, which is an incredibly full-featured and professional program. Procreate is probably the best drawing app out there but Clip Studio is a real game-changer for Android. The lower price of the Galaxy Tab made it a really appealing option, plus it's great that the pen is already included.
@@lojoboy3854 procreate is not some magic software, it is a easy to use software that is cheap which is why most people use it. Clip studio paint is a professional industry grade powerhouse with 100% desktop capabilities and can paint+animate+publish books+basic 3d. Nobody will use procreate over CSP for serious work
have you tried procreate before?
and why are android tablets are so underrated like they are dangerous to buy or something, because the ipad is so popular that literally nobody buys the tabs anymore:( kinda losing hope for the tab s7 tho

I have the tab s6. The size is perfect for me. The display is amazing too. I just wished it had a headphone jack. I don't know what stupid decisions companies make sometimes to remove 3.5mm from their premium line and put it in their budget line. A premium phone/tablet should have all the specs one needs.
This is like a year late but for those reading this in the future, it's probably because of the idea that "if you can afford our premium line of tablets/phones, then SURELY you can afford our expensive TWS earbuds too!" whereas budget consumers usually don't care or can't afford any extra stuff, they just want a working phone/tablet and nothing else. That doesn't make it any less wrong though, it's still a very greedy move and how they nickel and dime their "premium consumers" as much as they could.
I ordered a Galaxy S6 lite to get me started on getting serious about digital art. I was eyeing an iPad Air, but the price made me hesitate. At least this way I can really dig my hands in without being out a ton of money in case.
hows the tablet now? any issues?
I bought the Tab S6 lite based on the review video you did when it first came out, and I'm so happy with it. I'd like to eventually upgrade to the 7+ but the 6 has been really great this entire time.
Planning to upgrade my tab A 8" to the s6 lite cause its more bigger in terms of screen and pen size,, gotta save money first 😂

I had been using the Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.0 from 2013. I recently graduated college (better late than never) and I wanted to give myself a new drawing tablet as a graduation gift. I watched tons of videos, but yours convinced me to get the Tab S6 Lite. I would have loved the S7 or S7+, but I couldn't justify spending that much since I'm still an amateur. Thank you so much for the great content!

Heyy where did you get the coupon from?
I bought the s6 lite earlier this year when it came out and i absolutely love it, no regrets, i can do so much with it past just drawing. But the S7+ looks appealing simply because of the bigger screen, and my lil s6 lite can be a bit tiny when im typing up papers 😅
You can't really complain though, the Tab S6 Lite is a steal no matter what!
I don't draw but I am learning new language. This s6lite looks great. It can help me practice the handwriting. Ok I am getting s6lite.

I was torn between the tab s6, tab s7, and tab s7+ but ended up getting the s7+. I currently have a tab s3 which wasn't too bad with android 7, though the disk space was tiny. Installing android 9 on it slowed it down big time and there was some burn in. I can't wait to try out the new tablet once it comes.
Although, I would love to have the S7+, this christmas I actually will buy a S6, just because I don't have that much money. Still very happy :D
Well you really lucky! I hope I can get one too
$250 for an s6 Lite for you guys? ...here in the EU it starts at 349€ ($414) ...grrr!
In U.S, the price is without taxes. Each state adds its own tax, which are not the same from one state to another.
I got mine on Amazon (Spain) for 356€ 128Gb (407€ with a cover+keyboard, matte screen protector and gloves)
Same price in India too !
Bought it for 1048 AED that is 285 dollars which is a really good price for this tab, i had ipad 6th generation earlier which was an awesome tablet, but for media consumption it wasn't that good and it also miss many small features that matters a lot like floating windows and the option to make them transparent and etc.
Oof here in the us its $250
Samsung really brought their A++ game with this Tab S7+. DeX is a major reason why I'm thinking about eventually replacing my Surface Pro with the Galaxy Tab S line. Really been loving the functionality on my 2017 Note 8. But I want Samsung to first do the following:
- *Bring* *Back* *Linux* *on* *DeX!* Or better yet, enable the native installation and running of Linux Desktop apps in DeX mode. It makes much more sense for this kind of form factor and would be a great gateway for full-fledged Desktop apps on the Galaxy Tab line. Plus, as Apple demonstrated the full-fledged macOS Big Sur running on their 2 years old A12Z Bionic chipset from their iPad Pro line during their WWDC 2020 keynote, Linux on DeX will certainly be required to compete with that level of versatility.
- Add a second USB C port or full-sized USB A port for USB accessories while charging.
- Add a 3.5mm headphone jack for use while in flights or while our wireless headphones are charging.
- Make the keyboard cover accessory backlit and add angular typing like the Surface Pro line.
- Equip it with 16GB of RAM
If they implement all of the above, it'll be the first Android tablet I'll ever purchase. Will proudly replace my Surface Pro with it. My once in a blue-moon need for Windows applications will be perfectly served by my QNAP NAS. That need will only be shrinking as devs make their Android apps big-screen friendly, and port over their full-fledged Windows apps; literally NOTHING Windows can do, can't be replicated, and possibly made even more versatile on Android. Until then, sticking with my Surface Pro 2.

I have to highly disagree with the choices, I went for the Tab S6 256GB in 2023, because on Android..LCD doesn't look as good or clear as on iPhones or iPads, I need OLED on Android, I also got the 8GB of Ram, I got 4 AKG tuned speakers unlike the Lite, and I didn't want to spend over $1000 on the S7 or S8 currently available now and I love my Tab 😁

You're making me feel old. I absolutely agree that it is crazy to have a display tablet for $250 (unfortunately it is £300 in the UK) these days. I remember when I used to lust over the 12 inch Wacom Cintiq, I think it was like $1.2/£1k. Then eventually I bought a Samsung tablet PC in 2012 for £1k. It was okay, functional but not great. Then in 2014 I got the Wacom Cintiq 13HD for £580, I thought it was steal considering these things were £1k 5 years ago. Got a Samsung tab android tablet in 2015, it was awful (due to lack of good art apps and s pen was not great then) and ended up just collecting dust.
I went with the iPad pro cause of procreate. If that s7 had procreate I would go for Samsung no question asked

As someone who just bought a used, but good as new Tab s6 with keyboard cover for 430€, I disagree on the lack of recommendation! You can get great bargains on last year's devices and the difference to the S7 is miniscule in practice.
Currently learning Clip Studio on my Tab S7+ and contemplating whether or not to send my trade in tab S6 or not. Decisions, decisions.
I'm getting older and have trouble with small text: e-textbooks, PDFs, and digital comics.
I have been looking for a larger Android tablet for years. I was on the verge of buying an iPad when the Tab S7+ was announced. Now that I have it, it's amazing for my purposes. Small text is so much easier to read!
Warning: the Snapdragon 865 has bad GPS accuracy. Thankfully, almost no one cares about GPS accuracy on a tablet.

I've been drawing on a 2017 iPad with procreate and I've been looking to buy a new tablet, but on a budget. An iPad Pro is NOT within my means. The Galaxy Tab S6 Lite (2022) caught my eye, but I have to admit, I've been spoiled by procreate. That app being only on iPads is a sore spot for me. I also tried drawing on an xp pen artist 12 and let me tell you, I cannot deal with the lack of gesture controls, specifically zooming and canvas rotation.
Hey Brad, I'm from the UK and got my tab s6 lite for £229! Honestly such a good tablet for the money. S-pen/split screen/digital notes/samsung notes is what I use my tablet for most. I'll only invest a lot of money into an android tablet once their Pro level apps match/surpass the ipad options. Any chance you could make a video on the updated Samsung Notes app?
Hi, how its performance? Does it good enough for note taking?
I got the Tab s6 lite for my wife 3 months ago for around $200. It replaced her Tab A 10.1. Even she is a below average tablet user and has no demand in processing power, a mid range tablet only lasts 3 years. It would be likely the case for the S6 Lite. For me, I went from Note8.0 to TabA 9.7 to Tab S4and now S7. The longer support of the new flagships are certainly good news for me.
Great comparisons! Really informative. Thank you for sharing all these reviews!
Thanks Brad. I’m not into drawing, but love my dj apps and producer apps. I have an iPad Air and found that with my downloaded music, it doesn’t like it. I like the freedom of Android and pc. I’m thinking of getting the S6 lite. A couple of reasons, one it has a headphone jack, others don’t and the ability to expand up to 1t sd card. Thanks again.
Hold on. Brad dyed his beard and hair!
I wish, Samsung would make a new Galaxy Book Tablet.
Newest Intel Processor, full Windows 10, 120Hz LCD (not OLED) with similar pixel density like S7 and no fans.
That would be such a dream-device for drawing.
@Joey Especially for drawing OLED is absolutely terrible, because there will be burn-in sooner or later.
Also the iPad Pro has an LCD panel.
The colors are more accurate than on the current Samsung devices (although that has more to do with calibration than display technology), and it just looks very good.
You don't need the contrast of OLEd for drawing. It offers no benefit.
Great video. Just the info I was looking for. Now to decide...
Got my Tab S7+ a couple months ago and I still can't believe how good the screen looks.
how about the drawing experience? is that good?
@@lojoboy3854 yeah its pretty good. Pen pressure takes some getting used too but its still pretty solid. I use clip studio paint and the only major complaint that I have with the tablet is the fact that it tends to go through a lot of battery. The battery life is pretty alright but that app in particular will really put a strain on the tablet. I've noticed is that palm rejection needs a bit of work. I'd draw for a good hour and throughout that time, I'd have to erase little markings from palm. The pinch motion to resize the canvas also has a fairly noticeable delay, about a second or two and thats with all other apps not running. Overall I'd say if you have the money to spend, get the tab s7+. Their are still some quirks that need to be ironed out but I'm sure Samsung will have these issues resolved in the coming months, especially given how much they want to push the tab brand.
that bug that rushed through your camera added an extra essence to the review. Kudos to that bug.
Can u do a video covering every iPad that works with apple pencil? I'm on a really tight budget but need an ipad compatible with apple pencil and procreate to do digital art on the go. So I'm talking a comparison between:

iPad Air (3rd generation)
iPad mini (5th generation)
iPad Pro 12.9-inch (1st and 2nd generation)

iPad Pro 9.7-inch
Got the Tab S7 for $300 with their samsung student week and a credit card bonus. It is an amazing device, but it is so big. I play with the iPad pro at work so I thought this wouldn't be that big, but damn. Love the S-pen, the screen is amazing, and even though I prefer ios, good value for my graduation gift to myself.
I'm telling you. You CANNOT Sleep on the Tab S4. It completely crushes the Tab S6 Lite in every way except Software Updates. And it does more than well on A10. I have both the S4 and S6 Lite and I far prefer to use the S4 every single time.
I hope S7 lite comes with a good processor. I live s7+ and it's display
I bought S6 Tablet recently real cheap and its still the best bang for your money as it was a flagship Tablet ..and it has a Snapdragon 855 ..
An Android drawing tablet like that is not just more portable than a desktop tablet, but you also get touch support. Pan and zoom with multi-touch. None of the cheaper desktop pen screen tablets offer that. The ones that do (Cintiq Touch, MS Surface) cost thousands.
I wish the s6 lite was $250 in Canada lol. They’re on sale rn for around $400
You have to realize that it's probably $250 USD, which is around $350 CAD, so at $400 you're not that far off.
Lucky you! Here in Brazil it costs around $390 USD when the minimum wage is half of it.
Nice video!👍🏾 What app are you using @9:51? I recently purchased the Tab S7+. I want to get back into drawing as a hobby, but I have no idea which app to choose as my goto app. I would like to get into your style of art. Years ago, I mainly drew with pencil so drawing digitally will be an interesting challenge.
thank you for this video dude i went ahead and cancelled my order just to reorder the $250 (+ $30 amazon discount) s6 lite !!!
How did you get the discount? Here it's around 370 dollars 🥺
@@ektagupta9030 it looks like it was a special of the day but i see its $290 rn www.amazon.com/dp/B086Z3QNBM/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_fabc_cQPVFbP2ANXJ0
@@yeyewe_ thanks but seems that it doesn't work here. Thanks for sharing though
@@ektagupta9030 oh im sorry :/ hope you get a good deal!
For pointer speed you can open developer mode and there is A option for mouse track speed that might help the keyboard trackpad
Tab S4 is also out there...300dpi A3 size works fine on artflow studio with 23-24 layers...By the way clip studio paint is the most stable app right now for creating big size canvases...
PERFECT TIMING! Thanks for sharing this info. I am in the market for a new digital device after recently discovering the S Pen with the Note 20 Ultra, but it's a strain to draw on for long periods.
I was divided between the Tab S7+ and the Notebook Flex. Decided on the Flex, but won't be able to swing the cost until later in 2021. The Tab S6 Lite is the perfect affordable holdover for my situation and will make it much easier to stay productive until I can grab the Flex.
