Samsung quietly launched another 2020 device of 2022 model year. The Galaxy Tab S6 Lite tablet has been updated and accepted pre order on Amazon, Italy. Shipment and sales will begin on May 23. Compared with the specification table of the original version and 2022 version, the biggest change is the Android version you get after you turn it on - the new tablet is pre installed with Android 12 instead of 10.
Of course, the S6 lite of the previous year has been updated to the Android 12 system a few months ago and is eligible for another update (there is a year of security patch after that). Considering the relatively old hardware, it is unclear what kind of update schedule 2022 can expect.
Another thing we noticed is the price - the price of the 4 / 64GB model is 400 euros, 20 euros higher than the original version two years ago (this may be the difference in regional pricing). In addition, no 128GB version or LTE version has been seen, although this may be because the 2022 model has just been launched, and the store is still updating their online inventory information (the 2022 version has not been displayed on the Italian Samsung website).
Almost all the other details are the same. Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite (2022) is equipped with a 10.4-inch LCD with a resolution of 2000 x 1200px and supports the attached s pen. It adopts snapdragon 720g chipset (4GB memory, 64GB storage space and a micro SD slot) and 7040mah battery. A pair of AKG tuning speakers supporting Dolby panoramic sound and a 3.5mm headphone jack.
