The Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite (2024) has a physical footprint of 154.3 x 244.5 mm with a slim 7 mm profile and a total weight of 467 g, giving it a relatively compact form for a 10.4″ tablet. It comes with a bundled stylus, though the pen does not support tilt sensitivity. A detachable keyboard is not included, and neither backlit nor detachable keyboard options are part of the package. The tablet carries no water resistance rating, so it offers no certified protection against moisture or dust exposure.
The tablet features a 10.4″ IPS LCD touchscreen with a resolution of 1200 x 2000 px and a pixel density of 224 ppi, delivering a reasonably sharp image for everyday viewing. The panel runs at a standard 60 Hz refresh rate and does not use e-paper technology. Neither branded damage-resistant glass nor sapphire glass is present, so the screen surface lacks those additional layers of protection.
The tablet is powered by the Samsung Exynos 1280, a 5 nm octa-core SoC with 8 threads running at up to 2.4 GHz using big.LITTLE and HMP scheduling, and it integrates LTE directly on the chip. It ships with 4 GB of LPDDR5 RAM clocked at 2750 MHz across 4 memory channels, with a maximum supported memory of 8 GB, alongside 64 GB of internal storage that can be expanded via an external memory slot. Graphics are handled by the Mali-G68 MP4, which operates at 1000 MHz, features 4 execution units and 48 shading units, and supports DirectX 12, OpenCL 2, and integrated graphics — all on a 64-bit architecture secured with an NX bit. The device runs Android 14 and recorded a Geekbench 4 single-core score of 1052, with Geekbench 5 results of 720 single-core and 1880 multi-core.
The tablet has an 8 MP rear camera capable of recording video at 1080p at 30 fps, supported by a range of manual controls including ISO, white balance, focus, exposure, and shutter speed, along with touch autofocus, continuous autofocus during video, burst mode, HDR, panorama, and slow-motion recording. A 5 MP front camera is also present for video calls and self-portraits, though neither the rear nor the front camera includes a flash of any kind — no standard flash, front-facing LED flash, dual-tone flash, RGB flash, or video light is available. Optical image stabilization is not supported, and the device has no 3D photo or video recording capability.
Audio output is handled by stereo speakers, and the tablet retains a 3.5 mm headphone jack for wired listening. A single built-in microphone is available for voice input and calls. There is no radio receiver included.
The tablet houses a 7040 mAh rechargeable, non-removable battery that supports fast charging and reaches a full charge in approximately 3 hours. A battery level indicator is available to monitor remaining power at a glance. Wireless charging is not supported, so the device must be charged via a wired connection.
The tablet connects via Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac) and Wi-Fi 4 (802.11n), Bluetooth 5.3, and a cellular module with a single SIM slot supporting LTE but not 5G, while HDMI output, NFC, Ethernet, and ANT+ are absent. Wired connectivity uses a USB Type-C port running USB 2.0, and the device supports download speeds of up to 2550 Mbit/s and upload speeds of up to 1280 Mbit/s. On the hardware side, it includes a gyroscope, accelerometer, and GPS for position tracking, though there is no compass, barometer, or infrared sensor. A fingerprint scanner, iris scanner, and 3D facial recognition are all absent, meaning the device lacks dedicated biometric security options. Privacy and software features are broad: the tablet offers location privacy controls, camera and microphone access management, clipboard warnings, and app tracking blocking, though cross-site tracking blocking and Mail Privacy Protection are not present. It supports split screen, Picture-in-Picture, full-page screenshots, widgets, dark mode, dynamic and manual theme customization, a media picker, an extra dim mode, on-device machine learning, offline voice recognition, voice commands, sharing intents, customizable notifications, battery health check, child lock, and multi-user support. Games can be played while downloading, but app offloading, focus modes, Quick Start, and Wi-Fi password sharing are not available, and the device does not receive direct OS updates from the vendor.
In Geekbench 5 testing, the tablet recorded a single-core score of 720 and a multi-core score of 1880. Memory runs on DDR5, the most recent DDR generation represented in the provided data.
