    The Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite makes all the right compromises when decided what to leave out from last year's Tab S6. It's great for drawing and art. In general is a good value for an android tablet.

    Hi Brad! I really enjoyed your review, but I got one problem about your criticism when comparing S-pen with apple pencil you said that S-pen has problem with palm rejection that it leaves marks on your drawing when your hand resting on it, and that's causing annoying problem, this, I think it is invalid criticism, because in almost every apps I tried like Artflow, Infinite Painter, and Sketchbook there's literary "PEN ONLY MODE" in the settings, this option totally ignore your hands when painting, but your fingers will still works as multitouch gestures, shortcus, etc, this option makes my experience with S-pen works flawlessly. Hope you read this, since I think you might not explored those options yet.

      I think that complaint is overblown. Artflow and Infinity painter arrived close enough to pro create. I think when it comes to vector apps it’s behind, and for hand drawn animation rough animator is awesome and available on Android too. If Procreate is the only reason you choose iOS, you might be missing out. I used to have both, and if vector apps wasn’t the deciding factor I might go with Samsung, just because the Spen is that good

      @artema. 4 роки тому +18

      @@sirewangpho5146 I think it's pretty decent at taking notes. There's a button on your screen and the side of the pen that you can press at any time to start making notes. However, I don't know how small you want to write because it becomes pixelated (when zooming in to make smaller notes) pretty fast. Things seem to be a bit harder to use when you're left-handed, like me, and I haven't found a setting that accomodates that yet (though there might be one I haven't found yet). If you're more worried about the feel, it feels good when writing, the response is good and the writing sound effects are nice. I don't know if you have any specific questions, but all I'm gonna say is thatI'm planning to use this tablet alongside my laptop to make notes at school to compare them better, as right now I'm not sure what I prefer.

    What people need nowadays is simple: A cheap windows Tablet for school with a stylus that isnt as crappy or expensive as the n-trig Surface ones. It should also be able to work as a streaming device. Paired with the "Always on" feature and amazing battery life, this would crush the Surface lineup, provided that the device can run X64 executables.

    Hey Brad! To get rig of these stripes on your Amoled screen you can set your camera's shutter speed to fixed 1/60 sec (don't use auto setting). This will sync your camera shutter with 60Hz display, so you will not get this strobes on the video. This is pretty common issue based on how modern digital camera's shutter works. Hope this will help someone!

I have an s10 so i was a bit worried with the TFT display. It's decent actually, might even be better than what i previously expected having used the s10. Saved myself a huge chunk of money by going for this instead of the s6. Thanks man 👍

      @@vvenvvs hello! thank you for being interested to ask about it ^^ i've been using it for almost a year and a half now and there's still much to explore. i would say i've explored 60% at best of the tablet's capabilities.
      actually i'm pretty sure if you search most of 'how to'-s journalling and etc; by using this tablet is already showing a lot of what it is capable of. althought this tablet is affordable and most of the time i enjoyed the experience, there are some cons that i would consider for anyone who would like to think before buying one-
      firstly, depending on the person using it, some people may think the screen is quite big- i love the big screen but it can a headache if you just want to use it for reading. either you would have to zoom in or zoom out rather than preferring the default settings of the font, type sizes. some of my friends prefers smaller screen and some prefer larger. so it totally depends on what you're comfortable to use.
      for me the cons would be coming from the pen itself. as much i love the smoothness and the glideness of the pen when i write on to the screen, the nib is easily wears off and there's no official nibs replacement. You probably have to buy the plastic one and i dont recommend for you to write or push them hard on to the screen to avoid scratches.
      for the tablet it self. the disappointment i had is for the use of samsung dex. even if it has been added to the s6 lite, you can't connect to any device like the others can. but there are some third party apps that you can use to do that. just need to look for the right one.
      since the tablet has a memory of 64gb and 4 ram, they can be quite small for some people who do task heavily even for drawing. there are times when i do a lot of sketches and drawings for my project heavily on the tablet, the lag became more prominent the more you use it. so suggestion would be to avoid doing heavy tasks on it or do them one at a time rather than in one setting.
      for wifi version it may be a bit harder for you to find connection to some wifi places and i would much recommend the sim card one. but if you have a modem or would prefer to use hot spot than this may not be a con for you. (Since i bought the tablet through the education website, it's a bit more affordable but you probably need to confirm with your student email and any info that they needed before you can log in to the samsung education. since i'm broke and can only affrod the wifi version, this one is only based on my experience ^^)
      my apologies for the bad grammar and mistakes and english is not my main language. but i hope some of these info might help you gain some insights on how the tablet is before buying it.

    Just for fun i bought a S-Pen recently for my S21 and installed Sketchbook, and man, the quality and feel blew me away. Was pretty close to my wacom pad, just with the added feature of seeing your lines directly where you draw them. Of course the smart phone size means it's pretty much like drawing on a paper notebook. For hobbyists like me, who won't buy a 1k+ $ drawing tablet with built in screen, that's still a completely new experience. Gotta get that s6 Lite ASAP, finally a decent sized, quality screen to draw on, that doesn't cost as much as a used car.

    I reviewed it myself, and I must say I love my Galaxy Tab S6 Lite !
    I wanted to test the Galaxy Tab S6 but the price blocked me...
    So when the Lite was annouced I was really happy.
    I got one after my Galaxy Tab A 8.0 with S Pen (2019) and everything is better, the screen, the stylus, the sound, and the specs too. My Tab A is my secondary phone even if my S6 Lite is also 4G compatible ^^
    I have the same feeling than you Brad, apps are android's cons, but I really love the S Pen, and just like you prefer being able to magnetize it at the side instead of behind. But I prefere another thing : the stylus itself. The Galaxy Tab S6 S Pen has got a strange form factor I really don't like especially the tip. My STAEDLER Noris Digital works well too.
    For the apps, unlike you Brad I prefer Infinite Painter and Sketchbook Pro, more than Artflow, because of the lack of tilt support on Artflow. I find the strokes less "realistic' because of that, more "digital". That's also something I prefer on Clip Studio than Medibang on Windows.
    Anyway, as always great review :)
    Thanks Brad !

    I've always used Apple...I've had the amazon fire tablets in the past but that wasn't a great experience... i wanted a cheap tablet for on the go - I got it with the case, which was free at the time... I am very pleasantly surprised. I love the pen for writing - the apple pencil is great for drawing but has a horrible writing experience. While my iPad remains my main device, because of the size (it's the 12.9" one) it does tend to stay on my desk... the s6 lite is great for when I just want to pick up and go or chill on the sofa and do normal day to day stuff.
    I'd definitely recommend this device

I think it's a great choice if you don't want to spend a lot on the Tab S6 but also want the Dex mode which is missing in Tab S6 Lite. Also worth it if you don't want to go the Apple iPad route. You can find it second hand for a very good price. Got it for 270 pounds in mint condition, ordered a third party keyboard and some spare pen tips, and all that totals to about 300 pounds for a Dex enabled productivity machine AND drawing device.

I was looking at some older videos that you made some time ago and boy oh boy the difference! Particularly the head shot talking scene. I don’t know if you upgraded your light set up but there is a big difference. The video editing is also very well made and well balance (between head shots, product shots and drawing shots). Very nice touch on the music but not when you are talking (thank you very much it makes it soooo much easier to understand). And the informations are top notch!
    Keep up the good work and thank you very much for these very high quality reviews.
