The Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 is a highly accomplished Android tablet. It's great for media and almost as good for productivity. It's expensive, but still cheaper than its main rival - the iPad Pro. However, it's also not quite as good as Apple's Pro range.

Beautiful Super AMOLED display; Speedy performance; Excellent S Pen comes as standard;

Samsung’s One UI still not perfect; No headphone jack; Expensive for an Android tablet

The best Android tablet around, this impressive device has better speakers and display contrast than Apple's iPads, plus there's a fancy under-screen fingerprint scanner. Problem is, it's really rather expensive when you compare it to an iPad Pro. But if Android is your thing and you want best-of-best then the Tab S6 is the choice.

Vivid screen; Powerful; Good speakers; Makes drawing engaging;

Pricey for an Android tablet; We probably wouldn’t replace a laptop with one;

Tough competition from the iPad Air and Tab S5e; No headphone jack; Questionable stylus button ergonomics;

The Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 gets a lot right for an Android tablet. It has a speedy Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 Processor and flexible storage with 128GB or 256GB, which can both be expanded up to 1TB with a microSD card. Samsung's recent updates to its DeX mode even make the Tab S6 a more viable laptop substitute than earlier models.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 is a great update to last year’s premium Android tablet but doesn’t make the case for ditching the iPad Pro, Surface Pro or other options.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 out-performs its predecessor with a more powerful processor, optimized DeX mode and increased storage space; It also gets a new minimalistic design and updated S Pen stylus.

The keyboard is not included, and it's expensive and takes time to adjust to its small keys; In the tablet/laptop hybrid wars, there’s little clamor for an Android model, especially in light of Android app support on Chromebooks.

I have had the S6 8GB for a couple of weeks now and it surpasses everything I needed! Clear, bright display with great sound, and more power for my gaming than I even need at the moment. Highly recommend!

Android tablets are on life support. The iPad has run away with the consumer tablet market, and where it has left some scraps, Amazon's line of Fire tablets has picked them up. Even Google is done trying to compete with premium Android tablet hardware.

Gorgeous display; Loud; clear speakers; Sleek design; Fast performance; Stylus comes in the box

Widescreen aspect ratio sucks for productivity; Optional keyboard case is unstable on a lap; In-screen fingerprint scanner is slow and unreliable; DeX software features feel half-baked and are frustrating to use; Numerous software bugs
