Palm rejection works when the pen is close to the screen, this goes for all applications that do not differentiate between hand and pen. When you touched the screen with your hand the pen was far from the surface of the tablet and that is why that point appeared. Samsung Notes knows when you use your hand or the pen, its palm rejection is perfect, better than the Apple pencil/iPad in my opinion. Nowadays I only use Samsung Notes, I have it on my desktop too.
Teoh, your responses to your viewers are superbly knowledgeable, honest and well considered. This is so refreshing, after my experience of massive bias and lack of product knowledge elsewhere in UA-cam.

Got this for my parents for Christmas and we've all been playing with it. Im an apple user with a iPad Pro and apple pen and I thought that comparatively the writing experience on this more budget tablet was going to suck, but honestly, it is really an amazing writing experience! Im really impressed! I still prefer my iPad because im deep in the apple ecosystem but of your in the android ecosystem this is a great option. I thought id be disappointed 'cause of the price but the writing experience is very good! The palm rejection and pressure sensitivity is better with the apple pen but unless you're really into graphic design there isn't really a need for a the more expensive model. Also, the writing to txt works great!
Been looking through s6 lite reviews and definitely wasn't expecting to hear an Sg accent in one :) Loved your video and just got mine via the local student deal, thanks!
I ended up buying the S6 lite. I'm waiting for it to arrive to my house. For someone like me who has never used apple pencil, I'm not missing out, specially given the fact a single 1st gen pencil costs here, officially, $200 if converted to USD. If I was going with iPad, I'd need to get either the 8th gen 128gb or the air 64gb. 32gb won't do, and apple not having options to expand your storage makes it impossible to do art.
this tab seems to be really good for drawing too, the s pen is included and in few months the price will be really more attractive, for me this tab is a really good budget device for digital drawing, maybe better than the ipad 7 ?
AM Bhat yes indeed apple is truly great but their pricing annoys me. If I have to get a higher storage version with an apple pencil..price gets really high, I’d better buy a laptop instead. Ipad 7 gen is amazing but what will I do with 32 GB..experience will be limited by constantly managing memory. That’s why I went to s6 lite, it fits right in my budget and compromises seem manageable :)
Thank you for the video! I already bought it before I saw it but now I am certain that I will like it. You've shown it's possibilities very well and you've also shown us great apps to use! So thank you :)
Great tablet for basically everything. ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxLNmVocUk8tnSkwWIlYSNFzWRIaFTBuzS I bought it specifically for art, and that 4k screen is really fantastic for it! Also has LOUD audio, even tho the speakers aren't in necessarily prime locations it really projects!You do need to get a case for this bad boy IMMEDIATLY though as it doesn't come with one.Battery life is really good! Standby time us FANTASTIC. This guy can go about a week on standby and be just fine. The screen is massive so the longer you have the screen on, brightness especially, it will effect battery life. I am very happy with it though!One thing that I didn't consider is that since the screen resolution is so high, viewing ticktocks/ reading webtoons can be slightly blurry. There is no way to turn down resolution either, so it just be like that.Would still judge this bad boi at 10/10 for my first tablet. I've had it 3 months now and its not shown any evidence of "slowing down" or anything. Love it!
Alright then I'm gonna settle down for this Was contemplating between this and S7. Since I'll be using it primarily to make lecture notes, and since I already have a good laptop I don think its worth going for the S7 Thankuu for th review 🙏🙏
Hi, just watched this video and I must say it's extremely useful. I'm stuck between ipad 8th gen (with 1st gen apple pencil) vs s6 lite. My primary tasks would be annotating pdf, watching educational videos, video calls and doing loads of work associated with studying. Occasionally will include video streaming. I'm very particular with pdf annotations and I hoping to write and scribble on my pdfs. But due to covid, alot of shops do not allow testing of the products so I can't feel and compare the sensation of writing on both devices. I'm wondering which pencil /pen tip provides better accuracy? Thank you !
THE DOTS ARE NOT BECAUSE OF PALLM REJECTION BUT THE WAY IT WORKS . WHEN THERE IS THE WHITE POINTER ONE THE SCREEN IT STOPS TAKING HAND INPUT THATS HOW THE PALM REJECTION WORKS SO IF YOU LIFT THE PEN TOO HIGH THERE WILL BE BAD PALM REJECTION

Thanks for the video. One suggestion: I mainly want to be able to annotate PDF's... underlying and making side notes (to think as a read/review papers). For instance, I like to write the formulas using my own writing next to where they appear, so that I consolidate what I am seeing, and I make my brain more active as I read. Kind regards from Portugal.
@@lozang6252 That is very true. It's best to wait for a few month to see if the price will come down. Here in Singapore, it's S$599 for retail and S$499 for student. This pricing basically makes everything think the price will come down eventually to 499
How do you get multiple lines of handwriting chained onto the same line when converted to text? Storing files with 5 word lines would make this impractical for creating a journal to read afterward.
I'm in my final year of my bachelor, and for the first two years I've been sticking with pen and paper so I'm quite new to the thought of taking notes on a tablet. Been actually thinking about a tablet for the past 2 years. Wanted to ask about the general thoughts about taking notes like this, do you "learn as much" while you handwrite on a tablet or does it apply more to paper?(maybe superstitious thoughts) I do see alot of +points on doing this though! Also i loved the demonstration of the note taking :)
The act of digital note taking is same with pen and paper. So the benefits of note taking is same. The only downside I can think of is, on the tablet you can do more things (eg watch videos, social media) so you may get distracted. So you'll require discipline. I can't say much about intense digital note taking though since I don't write as much. However, this is same as digital art vs traditional art. There are countless top notch digital artists out there so it's not really about the medium used but more about the person.
Thank u for replying! :) I really liked the onenote demonstration because there are certain stuff I would like to connect directly instead of writing it with my laptop after the class to transfer it from paper. Too bad we dont have the student discount here like u do! But u convinced me that this was a worthwhile investment :)
Will you do a drawing test as well in this tablet? I am still a student and I am thinking of buying a tablet that's affordable but efficient. Shall I go with this one? I have always been using android so I am a bit scared to dive into the ios interface, and this looks pretty good to me. Shall I give it a go? Also your reviews are always helpful. Thank you.
Same query here. I want a good note taking tablet for study. I am into android ecosystem and afraid to dive into ios. S6 lite is cheap but app support seems less than ios apps Ipad is expensive, there is an issue of airgap but software support seems really good on ios apps. I am really confused.
@@Ph-xj9lb Android apps do get updated. As for Android OS getting updates, it may or may not get it. BUT all the apps that you can use will still run even if you choose not to update. And most apps still run even if you update the OS since most apps will update also.

Is the s-pen nib fragile? A lot of buyers are complaining regarding the s-pen tip on amazon. Moreover samsung isn't providing extra tips too with the pad.
Hi! Do you recommend this for a university student? Im planning to use it for 5-6 years. Will it last well? Will mainly use it for note taking, opening pdfs and powerpoints. Thank you!
Hi, my good guess is that this tab may last for about 4 years with the stock rom and more if you install custom ROM afterwards. The OP didnt mention about another note taking app that is "Write". If you use that, then you may back up your notes in HTML. You may upgrade afterwards.
Hey @@teohyc which one would you suggest apple or samsung tab for a student for note taking and studying purposes for a long term period like 5-6 years ? Thanks.
I have a note10 lite smartphone and also Tab S2 (without pen). Should I buy a tablet with an s pen? I use the s pen on my smartphone quite often, it's useful. I don't know with the s pen tablet, should I purchase?
Hello. Here in my country the S7 costs double and the IPAD AIR 4th + Pencil is even more. Do you thing the writing experience is for S7 or IPAD AIR is much better than the S6 Lite ? How would you measure how much they are better (only concerned for note taking).
Writing experience is different. Difficult to say which is better because it's very subjective. But if the S7 is way more expensive, then I recommend the cheaper option. Cheaper option often is more value for money.
Hey Teoh, great video! Thanks a lot! Could you please tell me about export documents handwritten to high quality pdf? Is it possible? I've heard about low quality and definition when exporting pdf. :/
Thanks for your video, did you see improvement with updates ? on note writing, i maybe will buy an ipad 2019 or ipad air 2019 tomorrow. And the price is so bigger =(
This tablet is good for note taking. No problems or issues with that. But the iPad 10.2-inch display has better colours but there's no laminated screen. iPad Air 3 is way more expensive. Also both iPads don't have the Apple Pencil included. If note taking is your primary usage, samsung tablet is more worth the money since it has the S Pen included.
The big problem on this product is just in the screen... If you stay long in the same page it will be mark a shadow on the screen.. I know it will disapear in a couple minute.. But it really disapointing.
Do you know if the apps MetaMoJi Note and NoteLedge are any good? I ordered this tablet for use until I can save up for an iPad Pro because I really liked the note taking app GoodNotes (and Procreate) and was wondering if there was a good note taking alternative that has the variety of features that GoodNotes has.
I've not tried those apps so I can't say much. But there are so many note taking/handwriting apps on Android that I'm sure you'll find one that's suitable for you.
Thanks for the review. Have you been able to compare the writing experience of Samsung Tab A 8 with S pen with the Samsung Tab S6 Lite? What different are the experiences and what would you recommend for the go-to device for handwriting and note-taking? Thanks!
Actually note taking experience will come down to the size of the S Pen, more specifically how comfortable the pen is. The S Pen nibs are all similar. And the S Pen from that Tab A looks small so it may not be comfortable to write for long period of time. Performance wise, writing should be responsive since writing is not processor intensive task.
For note taking, both tablets work fine. Tab S6 Lite may be more worth the money because it has a bigger and laminated display, more storage and the pen is included.
@@icycoldcoffee You'll still see the line trailing behind the pen tip on both Samsung and iPad. That's noticeable when you're draw long sweeping lines. When you take notes (short strokes), you won't even notice the gap (input lag).
Is the nib the same as their previous s-pen? Seems it is not but im not sure. It’s unfortunate they did not include any. I dont think it is because of cost cutting.
Hey I’m looking to buy a new tablet too and so far I’ve heard the iPad is better for students/note taking. If you’re only taking notes you don’t need iPad Pro just get the 6 or 7. Check out student discount or refurbished for better deals. Good luck!

@@teohontech7141 thanx for the tip. As the covid all price here slightly reduce, just top $400 to get S7 😁
can u review the samsung galaxy tab a 8.0 with spen?? thank you
I've the habit of reading lots of webpages is there a way to scribble or mark on the web while I'm reading and save the marked page for later.
Do you know if the apps MetaMoJi Note and NoteLedge are any good? I ordered this tablet for use until I can save up for an iPad Pro because I really liked the note taking app GoodNotes (and Procreate) and was wondering if there was a good note taking alternative that has the variety of features that GoodNotes has.
I've not tried those apps so I can't say much. But there are so many note taking/handwriting apps on Android that I'm sure you'll find one that's suitable for you.
hey! can you please let me know that how and where will you buy the new spen nibs? do u know any alternatuve to this pens?
Get the replacement nibs made of the Staedtler Noris Digital instead. They can be used with S Pen
I don’t know if it is better to buy this one or the iPad Air 2020 someone could give me a tip? I want it to use during highschool and university.
IPad Air would be better
Can you please show and talk scout google documents and if you know some ways to convert the audio in text
Thanks for the review. Have you been able to compare the writing experience of Samsung Tab A 8 with S pen with the Samsung Tab S6 Lite? What different are the experiences and what would you recommend for the go-to device for handwriting and note-taking? Thanks!
Actually note taking experience will come down to the size of the S Pen, more specifically how comfortable the pen is. The S Pen nibs are all similar. And the S Pen from that Tab A looks small so it may not be comfortable to write for long period of time. Performance wise, writing should be responsive since writing is not processor intensive task.
@@teohontech7141 Thanks for the reply. I am typing this on my Tab 6 Lite. Love it!
Nice review. I am looking for a budget tablet for note taking, should I go for Galaxy S6 / S6 lite?
Or do you have any better suggestions ?
For note taking you can just get the cheaper tablet. There's no need to spend so much more for the note taking experience is similar.
@@teohontech7141 thanks alot for an honest reply. Keep up the good work.
Please tell me does this tablet support hard disk
Not sure what you mean
@@teohontech7141 i mean does this tablet support external harddrive .
I will support external upto 1tb. I guess so.
@@roshanverma6526 Not sure about external drive (HDD, SSD). But for those external thumb drive, flash drive, microUSB card, yes.
Great vid! Would you recommend this over the ipad 6th gen just for note taking?
For note taking, both tablets work fine. Tab S6 Lite may be more worth the money because it has a bigger and laminated display, more storage and the pen is included.
@@teohontech7141 So is there no latency difference between the 2 devices? Because I wasn't sure as Apple claims that IpadOs has very little latency.
@@icycoldcoffee You'll still see the line trailing behind the pen tip on both Samsung and iPad. That's noticeable when you're draw long sweeping lines. When you take notes (short strokes), you won't even notice the gap (input lag).
Hey your video was used in the samsung advertisement
When you write A+
Yeah, Samsung licensed the video for usage. :-D
@@teohontech7141 thats cool man 👍
Can you help? When I press screen write the screenshot turns dark and dim. Other time it stays bright. How do I stop this
Does it support SIM card and WiFi ?
Does it have Samsung dex?
A question, is it possible to use Samsung note and have the Tab connected to the laptop (in mirror mode or extend)? To take notes from a PDF or video
Using mirror or extended mode means you're using Windows OS. Samsung Notes is not available with Windows OS.
Try ink & paper
Is the nib the same as their previous s-pen? Seems it is not but im not sure.
It’s unfortunate they did not include any. I dont think it is because of cost cutting.
It looks and feels similar.
I want a tab just for making good notes(highlighting, using different colors, moving handwritten text in that page)....do you recommend me this tab?
Hey I’m looking to buy a new tablet too and so far I’ve heard the iPad is better for students/note taking. If you’re only taking notes you don’t need iPad Pro just get the 6 or 7. Check out student discount or refurbished for better deals. Good luck!
This is good for taking notes. Not too expensive too.
