      Nice I have one too I like it. I actually have a Tab S8 ultra which towers over any if the tabs I own but I like how compact the 6 lite is and it's actually snappy with a good screen for content viewing. I never use tablet outdoors so the lighting always works for me

    I'm on my tab s7 and my s6 I sold to my friend. My friend LOVED it! Most of his workmates are on iPad and they were amazed on what my friend can do with the tablet, basically leaving his work laptop to do all the work on his s6. I'm on my tab s7 and still haven't upgraded because it's so capable that I don't think I have the need to upgrade it yet. It does VM - where mainly my work is done. It has data so I can take my work anywhere in the world as long as there is signal and the performance is just good. It does everything I want it to do.

    You can use the S6 as a second screen. You can to enable it. I use it all the time. Open “Smart View” then tap the screen about 5 times. This brings up another menu where you can select “Second Screen”

      How is the general performance for everyday multimedia consumption.. does it fly through or lags?

    I have a Funkey S Emulator. I can play games easy on this. It is one of the smallest emulators of the world. You just have to adapt. Smaller Things are good. Asking for BIG accessories for Tablets small in size is NUTS. Tables are not for YOU, because you aren't able to adapt.

    Yo creo que esta Samsung galaxy tab S6 es mejor que la S7 y la S8 porque tiene excelente procesador, sonido y aparte una pantalla amoled que ni la s7 ni la s8 tienen. Creo que actualmente incluso es la mejor en su tamaño por tener pantalla de altisima calidad y excelente precio.
    Si quieres una tablet de entre 10 y 11 pulgadas de pantalla que sea amoled solo tienes esta o la S9 que le triplica el precio. 😊

    @Samsung has arguably downgraded/sidegraded since the Tab S6. Every device since, there are screen quality issues, weight issues, and sharper edges on the newer tablets making them less appealing that the Tab S6 for every day use. If Samsung would simply make a spec-updated Tab S6, match or better the weight, smooth edges, and OLED+ screen, I'd be all in.
