    better than iPad Pro

    I've had this for over a year now. It's been a really good tablet. The pen works great. I also have an iPad Pro (2020) - I prefer the Samsung Tab S6 over the iPad. the S6 has better sound, battery life, connectivity to GMail and my work email. I like the Samsung desktop when I connect it to an external monitor. I've added a 256GB MicroSD card in there. Over all a much better tablet than the iPad. I'm not an iOS user so the iPad is not very intuitive and a bit wonky. Not everything works. The processor for the iPad is supposed to be better/faster, but unless you're doing serious video processing, you won't ever notice. As a media consumption device, I much prefer this over the iPad pro.

    This is a fast tablet with a beautiful screen and high resolution. No more waiting for apps to load or worries about slowing the tablet down by downloading too many books or emails. The size is just right, too.

    Not like a Tab S2 9.1

    I was hoping for an updated version of the S2. Plus: lighter, thinner, faster, excellent screen. Minus: no headphone jack, virtual buttons take up screen space so less than 10.5, squashed images or reduced image size to fit screen dimension. I'd prefer the S2 but with an OLED screen.

    Open Box Galaxy Tab S6 fits the bill

    Wasn't convinced that the new Galaxy Tab s7 was worth the extra money (particularly the Pro version with the OLED screen), so got this nearly perfect S6 version at a great price, Was Best Buy "Open Box", but other than a beat up box, everything was intact and product brand new. Tablet features on par with Ipad and for Apple haters like me, works terrific! Only thing that Samsung messed up on was to remove the headphone jack in this version. But a $10 USB-C adapter fixes that up fine. I recommend you find remaining stock of S6 and buy it!

    This replaced a 5 year old Samsung Pro tablet. With 256gb of storage and 8gb of RAM plus an SD card you will be able to run and store all of the apps you could ever want plus books, music, and pictures. Tablet is quick. My only complaint is the fingerprint scanner. My wife had no problem but I can't get it to accept mine.

    Great gift and great buying experience. Best buy had this item ready for pickup 3 days early and the person I bought it for who was already a Galaxy tab user absolutely loves this tablet. The tablet itself has huge performance upgrades to previous models, as does the intuitive S-pen which not only magnetically sticks to the back of the tablet but also wirelessly charges when in the storage position. All around extremely happy with the buying experience and product performance. I highly recommend this product and buying it from Bestbuy, even in this curbside pickup age we live in today.

    Awesome Tablet

    I'm not gonna go into detail. But if your not an apple fan, then this is a perfect tablet. My daughters all have I pads. Im the only android person. This tablet can do anything that any of the i pads can do easily. I honestly think it does alot of things better. I have had it since the beginning of May and have had no problems whatsoever. I use it for everything from games to movies, netflix, all my work stuff, radio. And many other things. If it had a downfall at all,, it would be that it has no headphone jack. I use wireless so that is not an issue for me. Maybe the worst thing is keeping the screen clean.

    Graphics are awesome. The sound is powerful and clear. Camera takes great pictures but the size of the tablet makes holding it awkward for taking pictures. I get a full days usage on a battery charge but that doesn't include watching videos, mainly playing word games and reading. I expected the battery to last longer, considering my usage. I'm glad that I purchased it with 256 GB because I've had it for less than a month and already used up 127 GB and 3.5 GB of memory. I have hundreds of pictures and 68 GB of videos on it already. I upgraded from the Tab S2 and I'm not a tech savy person so this is perfect for me. However, I wish it had some sort of ledge to better hold it, but I guess that would take away from the sleek look. I purchased the Samsung book cover so that helps to hold it more securely. I am just a bit confused why I keep getting messages to attach the S pen to the tablet, even though it is correctly placed there already. Beside those two issues, I love it so far.

    best if you have memory issues like me. best if you don't want to bring extra stuff like a notepad or diary. it won't replace a computer but the basic things you need in one-this can do. (simple word, excel, PowerPoint, notepad, calendar, notepad, diary, calendar, calculator, scanner, file manager, etc). this is a great companion device to your cellphone. Yes your cellphone may be able to do all of these and more, but that means you kill the battery life as well and won't have the same screen size. And speaking of screen size, great for media consumption! just awesome!

    Best Samsung Tablet Ever

    This Samsung S6 tablet is awesome! Watching Netflix on this is a joy with vibrant color and 4 speaker sound. Everything about it is great with the exception of the S Pen being attached on the back with very weak magnets. Will fall off if you touch it just slightly. Plus it doesn't sit flat in the case so if you lay the tablet down it will not lay flat. Very annoying that even with S Pen in recessed area the warning sound goes off over and over that it is not attached right. What could they be thinking, this is the worst place and way to attach this S Pen it is easily lost and has all the above problems. Love the tablet but whoever designed this S Pen to be attached where it is should be fired. Just to warn you before you make the mistake and buy the $180.00 official Samsung keyboard cover it is horrible. Will not stay attached to the back and the tablet will fall off without any waning and slam down hard on the desk. Samsung knows all about the problem yet refuses to update this product to actually work. For $30.99 you can buy the Finite Keyboard with case that works and will not fall off. Logitech wireless mouse for $23.00 bucks you are good to go. Samsung could easily update their case to attach to the tablet llke the Finite what is the holdup? Buy the tablet it is as good as it gets but stay away from the Samsung keyboard case and check contastlly to see if the S pen is lost as it is sure to be if you don't check it all the time.

    this is a perfrect tablet and the only thing i wish would be that if the screen was 12" keyboard is amazing and the reason that i sold my surface pro and switch to galaxy tablet however keyboard is small if you have big hands and the texting cruiser keep moving around the text while i am typing (specially when i am typing fast). multi tasking is amazing batter does last all day, no issues on spen, i think it has a fair price compare to ipad pro series....

    I've had a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 for several years, but i filled it up. The Tab 6 with 256 GB and another 256 SD card should resolve the memory issue for years. I added the Fintie Keyboard Case which allows me to use it as either a tablet of like a laptop. I used it at four days of conferences. The battery lasted all day, which is great as I didn't have to carry a spare battery. I highly recommend tablet.

    I've bought several tables earlier mainly for reading, e.g. Samsung Galaxy A 7.0 is too slow, Kindle Fire HD is not so clear, etc....I was looking at the iPad Pro, Microsoft Surface, etc. and finally decided to buy this Samsung Tab S6 and I am happy with it so far. It is fast and the screen is super clear and, therefore, it makes my reading more enjoyable. I also use it for Yahoo email, watching YouTube, etc.. So far the table has no problem and overall I'm pretty happy with this tablet.

    I previously had a Samsung tab S3, so the move up was significant compared to my old tab. The S6 is amazingly simple to use so enough said on that. The screen is simply spectacular and a perfect size. I lost my pen early on my S3 so I'm getting use to using a pen again. Thank for putting a place to put the pen, which was lacking on the S3. Battery life is great. I use it pretty much all day and it only uses about half of the charge. Getting rid of the glass back on the S6 was a good move.
