When Samsung
declared the Galaxy
Note 10 handsets on August 7, we're
expecting the company to also release a new tablet as successor to
the Galaxy Tab S4. It will be Samsung
Galaxy Tab S6.
Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 – Release date and Key features:
August 7,
New York City – that’s the time and place that Samsung has chosen
for its next major launch event. It’s the expected site of the
Galaxy Note 10’s reveal first and foremost but there’s also a
chance that the company could use this platform to showcase the Tab
S6 as well.
The leaked
images further confirm that Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 will feature a
dual-camera setup on the back, a first for any Samsung tablet. It is
placed on the side and right above the S Pen groove. If earlier
reports are any indication, the newest model from the Tab 'S' series
will have a 13-megapixel main sensor and a 5-megapixel wide-angle
sensor.
Unlike its
predecessor, it is clearly seen that Galaxy Tab S6 won't have a
headphone jack and has a metal-based build instead of glass. However,
it still keeps some of the design of the Galaxy Tab S4. For example,
it still has four speakers (two on top and two on the bottom), with
the bottom two separated by a USB Type-C port.
Earlier
reports stated that Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 is expected to be powered
by Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 SoC and run on Android 9 Pie out of the
box. It will come with a 10.5-inch display, 6GB of RAM, and 128 GB
storage, with an option to upgrade to 256 GB.
Galaxy Tab S6 expected price:
Although the
Tab S5e is affordable, we don't expect the Tab S6 to be cheap at all.
You can bet that the Tab S6 will either be the same or even more. An
optional LTE model will be even more expensive. This is a
opposing to the iPad
Pro models rather than the more
affordable regular Apple tablet.
Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 – Design:
Previously
leaked real-life images initially suggested that the new tablet's
design has a groove on the back that would house the S Pen. Now, the
latest rumors indicate that it may be true. This feature will also
likely allow the tablet to wirelessly charge the S Pen given the tech
firm's device-wide approach. It is also anticipated to be
Bluetooth-enabled. It no longer
has the metal ring that can be seen with the Galaxy Tab S4 S Pen, and
this time, it has a top cap.
Better processing power:
The
Galaxy Tab S4 launched with the Snapdragon
835 chipset, which wasn't the good processor out at the time, and it
felt a little bit slow to use. Compared to
the iPad
Pro range, which features some
incredible processing power, the Tab S range often feels a little
slow. If Samsung
wants to position its tablet as genuine competitors to Apple's
powerhouse options, it could do with optimizing them quite a bit
more. We are expecting the Tab S6 will allow for that.
Wireless charging or PowerShare:
We'd expect
the Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 to launch with a good battery as most
tablets do. It will be great if you could share that power with your
other devices. The Samsung
Galaxy S10 range presented Wireless
PowerShare that lets you convert your smartphone into a wireless
charger to power up your headphones, or other smartphones. If the same
was the case for a tab, it would be incredibly useful, due to the
sheer size of most tablet batteries.Want to

A bigger screen:
The Samsung
Galaxy Tab S4 has a 10.5-inch screen, which is decent for a tablet
but it doesn't match the larger sizes of the iPad Pro range. Having a
huge screen is great for working, as you can see lots of information
at once, also it's good for watching video as it helps better
recreate a cinema experience on your hand.
If
Samsung really wanted to push into the 'premium' tablet market, then,
it could do so by widening the screen a little, or at least offer
various size options. We expected the company to do this for the Tab
S5 range, by offering the Tab S5e as a separate device. Perhaps we
could even see the Tab S6 come in a range of sizes, like the Galaxy
S10 phones with the S10e, S10 and S10 Plus range.
