The tablet Android market has experienced a serious downturn in recent years which has seen many OEMs drastically reduce their product catalogue. The Korean giant has kept faith with its tablet business but in a somewhat uninspiring manner. We recall how the company launched the LTE-enabled Galaxy Tab A 8.4 (2020) with little to no fanfare. Again Samsung has gone official with the Galaxy Tab S6 Lite without much publicity. The tablet is now officially listed on Samsung Indonesia’s official website.

Before now, the tablet has featured in several leaks revealing the renders and specs. It has even been reportedly listed by several carriers and e-retailers including in South Korea. Thus, there is little left to the imagination but this official listing confirms the hardware and software details. Here we go.

The Galaxy Tab S6 Lite features a 10.4-inch display with a decent WUXGA+ resolution of 2000 x 1200 pixels. The tablet is powered by an Octa-core processor whose identity wasn’t revealed on the website. However, it is believed to be either the Exynos 9610 or 9611 chipsets. The processor is paired with 4GB of RAM while there are 64 GB or 128 GB of internal storage variants available. The internal storage is expandable via a microSD slot.

The tablet comes with an S-pen stylus just like its sibling. It equally packs dual speakers with AKG and Dolby Atmos enhancements, a 3.5mm headphone jack, USB Type-C port. For photography, there is an 8MP rear-facing camera and 5MP selfie shooter. It comes pre-installed with Android 10-based One UI 2.

Further, the Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite packs a mammoth 7040mAh battery which supports up to 13 hours of continuous video playback between charges. Despite the huge battery, the tablet is just 7mm thick and weighs 467 grams.

Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite Pricing and availability

The Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite comes in Oxford Gray, Angora Blue, and Chiffon Pink colour options. Earlier listing on B&H which was later pulled down shows the tablet will retail for $350 for the 64GB Wi-Fi-only variant and $420 for the 128GB Wi-Fi-only variant. There is no word yet on when it will go on sale.

Samsung‘s upcoming Galaxy Tab S6 Lite has been anticipated to launch any moment from now but there has been hardly any information on the launch schedule. It was even tipped that the device will be launched on April 2 but that obviously did not happen.

However, the Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite launch may be closer than you think. A number of South Korean retailers have reportedly listed the Galaxy Tab S6 Lite online, meaning that Samsung is about to officially release this product.

The landing page for the Galaxy Tab S6 Lite on one of the retailer’s website shows that the device will use a constant-width four-frame design. The tablet will feature a large 10.4-inch screen with a resolution of 2000×1200 pixels. The design is somewhat similar to the iPad Pro and it also comes with an S Pen. The tablet has a dimension of 24.5×15.4×0.7cm, weighing in at 798g.

In terms of specifications, the Galaxy Tab S6 Lite will be equipped with an Exynos 9611 processor which contains four 2.3GHz A73 large cores and four 1.7GHz A53 small cores. The processor is bundled with a Mali G72 MP3 GPU. The process is said to bring support for 5G connectivity to the device. The tablet equally comes with 4GB of RAM and 64GB/128GB storage options. The tablet will run on Android 10 OS and packs a massive 7040mAh battery.

The device will sell for the equivalent of $350 in Korea which isn’t a bad price. However, we expect the price to be slightly higher outside Samsung’s home market.

Samsung‘s upcoming Galaxy Tab S6 Lite has been certified by the US FCC. The product is listed with the model number SM-P615. The tablet had earlier received Bluetooth SIG certification with the same model number. We won’t also fail to add that the Galaxy Tab S6 Lite was also benchmarked on GeekBench bearing a similar model number.

The Galaxy Tab S6 Lite looks like a trimmed-down version of the Galaxy Tab S6, Samsung’s most powerful tablet. The Tab S6 boasts of an AMOLED display as well as a Snapdragon 855 chipset onboard. Samsung even announced a 5G version of the Galaxy Tab S6 last month.

The Galaxy Tab S6 Lite isn’t a flagship model but a mid-range one. The GeekBench listing revealed the tablet will be powered by an Exynos 9611 SoC instead of the Snapdragon 855. The device will also come with 4GB of RAM as against 6GB RAM on the Galaxy tab S6. For connectivity, the FCC listing confirms the presence of 4G/LTE connectivity. The earlier Bluetooth SIG certification had confirmed the presence of Bluetooth 5.0 on the device. The tab S6 Lite is also tipped to come with wireless charging support.

However, there are no details on the screen size and type as well as if it will retain the S Pen stylus used on the flagship version.
