Galaxy Tab S6 launched: Samsung's latest attempt to compete with the iPad Pro

Just like the teaser posted not long ago, Samsung has officially announced its latest tablet called Galaxy Tab S6 . This is the most advanced tablet of the company, designed, adding features to confront Apple's iPad Pro product.

Galaxy Tab S6 has a large 10.5-inch Super AMOLED screen (2560 x 1600 resolution of 16:10 aspect ratio). ie similar to the Tab S4 version, but with thinner screen borders to make the device smaller. The company has also abandoned the facial recognition system, instead equipped with a fingerprint sensor at the bottom of the screen. The machine has an impressive thickness and weight: 5.7mm and 420g.

In terms of sound, the Tab S6 is equipped with a 4-speaker system with 2 on each side for stereo effects. Controlling everything is a Snapdragon 855 processor, with a large 7040mAh battery that can power for up to 15 hours.

Flip the back, you can see the dual camera, one has a normal viewing angle and an ultra-wide angle (123 degrees), and a magnet with a track to place the S-Pen. Like the iPad Pro, the Galaxy Tab S6 automatically wirelessly charges the pen whenever a user places it in the magnet slot, giving users a device to charge.

This is also a new generation S-Pen, capable of controlling the machine just like the version equipped on the Galaxy Note9. Users can use it to press the shutter button, switch slides in the PowerPoint application or whatever the user wants.

Keyboard accessories have also been upgraded, adding a small trackpad (trackpad) for users to navigate with the mouse. This accessory will connect to the machine with a few pins along the body, and has a separate price of $ 179.

As for software, the Tab S6 will use Android 9 Pie and the new OneUI 1.5 interface. Of course, the device will also be equipped with DeX software to give users a user experience similar to that of laptops rather than tablets, which can be activated by connecting an external keyboard accessory. DeX also helps users attach an external monitor via USB Type-C.

 

The Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 will go on sale on August 6, starting at $ 649 for 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage, $ 729 for 8GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage. Both are Wifi versions, and 4G LTE versions will be announced early next year.
