Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 review: Finally, a good Android 2-in-1

Samsung’s Galaxy Tab S6 can replace your laptop, if you can live with some quirks and if you don’t rely on specific desktop applications to get your work done. Those are some big caveats when you’re looking at spending close to $830 (with the keyboard attachment), but I think there’s a niche group of people that are looking for an Android alternative that doesn’t just offer a tablet experience for playing games and watching movies, but a device that can get some work done. The Tab S6 is small enough to fit in some of my smallest bags, and it’s lightweight. While the bezels are slim around the 10.5-inch screen, there’s still enough room to hold the tablet without interfering with the touch display. That said, there were moments I wished for a bigger screen, especially when multitasking in DeX mode. It’s a shame Samsung doesn’t offer another size like Apple does with its iPad Pro range.

The Galaxy Tab S6 is a faster, slimmer upgrade with a handier stylus – but its quality-of-life improvements might not be groundbreaking enough to unseat the iPad Pro as the king of professional tablets. Still, if you liked its predecessor, the new device is worth sizing up as a powerful work device.

S Pen is much better integrated; Finally; pro specs; Keyboard case is finally good

Pricey for its utility; Unclear if fancy stylus gestures will be useful
