The S6 Lite is like $100 cheaper now, the pen is mounted on the side with good magnets, it not a pen that you charge, and it's a Wacom pen! Also, it was kind of weird how you dismissed the S6 Lite on what its processor is like on paper, and not what the tablet is like in everyday use, but then you did the opposite when comparing the S5e to the S6...

Great tablet for basically everything. kzfaq.infoUgkxLNmVocUk8tnSkwWIlYSNFzWRIaFTBuzS I bought it specifically for art, and that 4k screen is really fantastic for it! Also has LOUD audio, even tho the speakers aren't in necessarily prime locations it really projects!You do need to get a case for this bad boy IMMEDIATLY though as it doesn't come with one.Battery life is really good! Standby time us FANTASTIC. This guy can go about a week on standby and be just fine. The screen is massive so the longer you have the screen on, brightness especially, it will effect battery life. I am very happy with it though!One thing that I didn't consider is that since the screen resolution is so high, viewing ticktocks/ reading webtoons can be slightly blurry. There is no way to turn down resolution either, so it just be like that.Would still judge this bad boi at 10/10 for my first tablet. I've had it 3 months now and its not shown any evidence of "slowing down" or anything. Love it!

We just need a Tab S6e with a AMOLED screen SnapDragon 730 chipset and 6gb RAM for $450

Watching this on SAMSUNG Galaxy Tab S5e!👍

3:19 that's all I need to hear. Thank you.

the video is titled as s5e vs s6 LITE, but ended up being with s6

Great review, answered a lot of my own questions as I too was stuck deciding between these 3 options. One question though, what stand are you using at the 6:35 mark? I already tried some searching on Amazon but nothing came up looking that one you have. Thanks in advance for the information.

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE TABLETS. They are still a wonder of technology to me. I have owned 5 so far and looking forward to getting the newest Samsung tablet.

What is the name of that stand you use to hold up the tablet for recipes?

I got the S5E a month ago and love it.

Thank you for this very informative video. Helps me decide on which model to purchase.

Help me decide which one to choose , I need for tab with plenty of Space, then I usually use tab to Record lectures and seminar, if Im seated from a , would the resolution be still good , would my documentation be clear since S6 lite is only 8 and 5 mega pixel, while s5e is 13 ? Or more Which would u think is the best between the 2 I do still have my I pad mini which is UP to now is great my only prob is I cant store more docs and apps. Can I attached wire less / blue tooth kay pad Coz I bought this A70 CP Of Samsung , Im disappointed when I tooth pics of the lecture, it has hard time in of using the slide by the time it would Shooting the lecture pic the slide pic is is already gone... I Miss alot of lets 7 JPro is much better , Focus is fast the prob lem with it low threshold for shocking Thanks Thanks for the help

Brilliant review! So so helpful!

What tablet stand do you show on your video ?

If only s5e has pen support. Thats the only reason im still deciding between s6 lite or s5e

great comparison review. Did you get a chance to look at any Bixby differences? I can't get Bixby Routines on my S5e, even with the Android 10 UI 2.1

Great review. Is the display of the Tab S5e as good as on the display of the Samsung S20?

The best review I have seen on this. Really well done.

Hello, do you have a link for the case you put on the 5Se also the silver tablet holder, please? Great review. The 5Se is perfect for my needs.

Appreciate this review, thanks very much!

Good video and audio quality of the KZfaq video... and of course a very good review. Even I chose S5e for the same good reasons!

I just couldn't get the S5e. I contemplated for a long time and got the S6 as soon it was available here. I've been using it for many months now and I'm very happy with it. I became even happier when Samsung announced 3 years of Android updates for its flagship devices which included the S6 too.

you said s6 lite vs s5e, but you compare the s6 to the s5e.. almost no s6 lite except for the S pen and the TITLE. thats horrible. I was here for the s6 lite vs s5e.. not s5e vs s6 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

Well to begin the S Pen works for so many things like writing notes translating drawing and doing text translation when you select it you don't need battery to use it for writing I've used the note series sense note 7 so I do love the S Pen and did go for the tab S6 myself

Nice Any update on when we get to see S6e & S7 Lite :) Do u think it's worth getting a New S5e. Or Used Tab S6 ❓

I got the S6 Lite, mainly for drawing. The full S6 pen should work for tip-on-screen stuff even if it's out of charge, it only needs the charge for the remote motion sensor gestures. I felt I didn't need to do any 'magic wand' gestures, and if it makes the pen placement more awkward, that made up my mind.

I've the habit of reading lots of webpages is there a way to scribble or mark on the web while I'm reading and save the marked page for later.

Great video. I was thinking about a similar S6 vs S5e vs A7. There is a new A7 (2020) 10.4 tab which has a similar chipset to S5e but cost significantly less. This device has only 3Gb of ram though. I was disappointed S5e was not on the 3 years software support list. Owned multiple Samsung tablets that never received more than 1 software updates. Thinking I might as well bite the bullet to get the S6, or even S7. Heard many good reviews of S7+ recently. Or, get the cheaper A7 10.4 @ Android 10 and give up hope for Samsung updates beyond 2020. Amy thoughts?

your voice is so much more natural and fluid now, keep it up!

Love the covid home confinement context. Talk about real life use review! Yes I need a tabkrt for exactly the same use case p

Thoughts on the new Samsung Galaxy Tab a7?

S6 also supports HDR video on apps like Netflix, while S5e doesn't. Not sure if S7 (non plus model) does either.

I agree with this I compared s5e and 6 lite because I was interested in the pen, notes etc. The six lt had a bad screen and was thick and heavy. The 6 is 200 more. S5e and I have a great media slate that is light weight and with and 10, has pretty good performance.

Bro u earned my subscription " .. so far the best reviews I have ever witnessed. Keep going.

I usually use the S Pen as a screen pointer and for text entry with my SWYPE Keyboard. It's incredibly accurate and swift in operation. Further, in doing markups with Office Suite, you're able to do screen markups and correcting your text entry instantly without even thinking. By the way, i'm getting the Tab S7+ on the 21st of the month. It's my gift to myself, replacing my aging Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 w/LTE support. It's been great, but it's time for me to replace it.

It's subjective as you say, but I use the S-Pen all the time, for easier navigation, text selection, and pointing at harder to reach areas of the screen. I agree that the magnetic stow on the back is useless, but I have a cover/case that has a hinged cover that keeps it safe.

Does it support MHL or mirroring?

So you can't use a s pen or stylus type pen device with the s5? Does the s5 have expandable storage? And since it has no headphone jack can you get an adapter for the charge port that makes it possible to use wired headphones?

I had the same exact the dilemma ended up going with S5e got to trade in my shattered note 9 with the Samsung Shop app that was really good ( though I take issue is that they did not consider fact that 9 was a 512gb/8gb version)..... I stressed over the specs and the stylus, but for me boiled down to the fact that I could buy the S5e as an unlocked mobile capable device and I couldn't do that with the other two!! Wasn't even in the market for tablet but the deal for the turning in my shattered device was just too good to pass up. PS miss my note 9, Note 10 feels ike a downgrade .. also I think this dude has it wrong I don't like in screen fingerprint sensors.... physical sensors are so much more reliable and no guessing game of finger placement + can do it blindly

Fantastic video! I ordered my S5E and this gave me more confidence that I made the right choice, especially as the S6 Lite, A Series, and other tablets are having great deals! I ended up getting the 6gb , 128gb variant so hopefully will get a good boost in performance. In the same boat as you, used to flagship processors with high ram and you gave me peace of mind knowing it is still smooth and not much of an issue with the SD670. The iPad 8 also looked good but apart from the performance it's inferior in every other way such as design/USB-C. This IMO makes it the best bang for the buck tablet, apart from some Chinese tablets but it can be a tedious process researching them as there are so many U.S based ones out there already.

Great review mate, but one thing I want to know is apparently hdr doesn't work on the s5e? Is this true?

can you make old fashioned gsm phone calls with this tablet? Is there a phone app?

I went with the Tab s5e. Thanks, this video helped a lot.

Amazing review. Just what I wanted to know. U definitely saved some $$$ for me.

You've got the makings of a good review, J, but unfoortunately this review/comparison has a few holes or inconsistencies in it, in my opinion. You make the point that cameras are of little use in tablets (except for the occasional receipt), but then spend a good part of the video on comparing cameras. You seem to have many minor gripes with all the tablets, and dismiss the S6 Lite out of hand. The most grievous thing I have an issue with is your ridiculous melodramatic fumbling of the S-pen, in order to make your point about its "uselessness". You don't like the implementation of the way it is stored, so do everything you can to make it fall off. Then you state that if it falls off, it won't charge, and will be of no use at all. You need to do a lot of homework before making such a video. The S-pen, for many people, is the defining factor in buying a tablet. It is up to you to do the necessary research, so that you can speak accurately speak about its pros and cons. Few KZfaqrs have the knowledge to accurately encapsulate the S-pen's usefulness, so it continues to be derided time and time again. Firstly, for your information, the S-pen requires no charging, has no battery, and will faultlessly perform its functions for the duration of its life. It gets its power from the screen. The charging of the S-pen in the Tab S6 is solely for the use of gestures and remote control. Other functions like writing, drawing, navigation etc do not require a charged pen. Secondly, I wish you would learn about the S-pen's other capabilities. It can be an absolute time-saver in scrolling, previewing, selecting, capturing, interpreting, multi-tasking, etc. You need to know about AIR COMMAND, if you are going to review compare any device which is S-pen compatible. People who intend on purchasing need to be educated correctly by reviewers like yourself. They deserve to get accurate information, so it is imperative for you to do your due diligence in order to provide this.

I absolutely love this review. I really wish you would have done a review on the "Galaxy Tab s7 FE" compared to the "Tab S5e" I feel you have done a fair and realistic review and thoughts about unnecessary sell points compared to everyday life. My S5e is going south so I wondering if I should buy the Tab S7 FE or buy another Tab S5e right now they are around the same cost

Can you please provide a link where you bought your case for the Tab S5e?

Excellent information. Helped me make a decision for the S5, thanks so much!

I'm in the exact same situation. Yesterday I purchased the Samsung 2020 Tab A7 but it's going back. It's amazing for the price, but mine had a weird issue where the wallpaper would be all fuzzy and started to flicker. Anyways, I've been comparing specs on the s5e, s6 lite, s6 and s7. Personally, I think the sweet spot is the s5e. In the UK the 6gb version is £370. Exact same screen as the s6 (no HDR due to the processor though, but meh whatever), but it's the thinnest and lighest tab of them all. In fact, it got the best 10" tablet screen out of any tablet. Hopefully the 6gb will give me good enough performance. Not interested in the pen, or playing games, and I would prefer a fingerprint button over a in-display one. Can't believe Samsung gave the 11" S7 an LCD screen though!

Damn thank you so much for this vid!

which phone are you using

It was a matter of software. Tried review units for s6 and s7+. The performance when note taking only differ in its refresh rate and the delay. But both worked excellent

Is there any stylus compatible with the tab s5e?

Best review I have the galaxy sTah2 I basically use for games and my nook book I was thinking of upgrading to tab 5e 128 gb now do this comes with 4 speakers or 2 do you think this is good thanks

Great review, I've been going back and forward between S6 and S5e, which one should I buy, and you've helped me decide, for my needs at the much lower price the S5e is the sensible choice, I would like the S pen, but I know I would hardly ever use it, I don't do a lot of multi tasking so the lower ram and Cpu of the S5e should be sufficient. Will pick up my S5e tomorrow, Thanks for the help.

Hi.. I read a lot of pdfs and underline them. I always used the Ruler which is there on ipad to ensure that my underlines are straight and right under the words. I was surprised to not find any ruler on Samsung tab 6 lite. My underlines are going all over the place. Can someone help me solve this

Good review mate. I was so confused between them. I need one of them for air navigation.

Thank you for your great review! Al trying to decide between those same two tablets my self at this time. Samsung has the S5E with 128GB for $330 and the S6Lite 128GB for $387. I have no need for the stylus and only use a tablet when I travel for GPS, watch movies, e-mail, fid information. etc. I prefer the better resolution of the S5E. Plus (unless I am wrong the 128 S5E has 6GB of RAM.

thanks for yr honest review! i have been stucked on the option which to choose, now i got the ans which s5e suit me the most for video+surfnet+light dex mode sometimes

i recently upgraded from an s6 (lol) to an s10e and am experiencing exactly what you describe in this video. The stretched out aspect ratio actually made videos smaller despite a much higher screen to body ratio.

Very good review. I got mine for $332 and I am really loving it. Amazing display, battery life and expandable storage. The three most important things that matter to me and of course the price.

Too bad you didn’t also include the link of the case you recommended in video?

The Tab A 10.1 (2019) goes on discount alot for like $150-$279 USD on 3rd party seller sites like eBay and for that price I really like the simple Tab A 10.1. But hands down nothing beats that AMOLED screen on the S5e in the sub $400~ category,once you use an AMOLED screen there's no going back to regular IPS LCD screens. If you haven't experienced an AMOLED screen yet,the Tab A 10.1 should suffice.

Good review dude. Thanks

The s6 lite is not bad at all, the screen resolution and brightness is perfect, it works great for school.I even tested it and went outside and the brightness is more than enough in my opinion.

What about the wi-fi problem with the s5e? Wouldn't you consider it to be a major turn down? Isn't it crucial? Thanks.

would it be better if I spend more on the s5e and not get a stylus but better features or the s6 lite? (with stylus)

I purchased s5e a couple of years ago. Love it. I have it paired with my Galaxy 21 + 5G. The functioned mirror from one device to the other. I do like some Apple Products BUT Samsung is too great of a choice to change over for less choices. Thank you for your Channel. You are great at your craft.

Great review, now I desperately want the s5e, I realised I don't need the s pen and is so much cheaper, thanks. I love your plants

Watching this on my s6 lite, it’s awesome. If you you’re an average joe, that wants to write notes and watch media, it’s perfect.

I got the s5e last year on 30th of December and to be fair, yes the processor is lower, but you just don't care if it's not a huge problem for you. I am using it for drawing especially and it works pretty good. Yes the wifi thing is tricky, but Samsung is fixing it trough updates... After a year is working the same and I have a Sim card in it and there's not a single difference.. So yeah

Hey I am not sure which one to get. I love samsung desx and the s pen but I have little money now. Should I save up and wait for the Tab s6 or buy the s5e or the s6 lite now

If you got the Samsung S6 case, you can detach the part of the case that attaches to the back of the s6, and it secures the stylus pen. For me, the stylus pen is all important, and since I can't afford the s6, I went with the s6 lite.

Exactly the same scenario.. ur video made my decision 👍

Tab S5e is an great table but the lack of S-Pen support was a deal breaker to me as I take a lot notes. So I returned it and went with the Tab S6 and I don't regret it, excellent tablet.

Yo my guy. I just got mine the other day. It is a major improvement campaired to my old samsung galaxy tab A. Ill be honest, it exceeded my expectations.

I'm looking to upgrade my tablet which is a Galaxy Tab A. With only 32GB SSD Storage on my Current Tablet, maybe the S6 Lite is an Option I'm Considering.

Great comparison!

I've had the s6 lite for a couple days now and so far I absolutely love it!

You help me decide on what to buy...thanks a lot😊

I traded an S5e with 6GB of RAM for an S7+. I found the S5e even with the added memory to be slow and the wireless adapter to be just alright.. You need to have a strong signal to stay connected. I will say the display is beautiful. A wonderful media device.

S5E for me and using it daily as a media device and phone combo, still viewing it at the moment 2024. Cannot go anywhere without S5E. James J Walsh in Limerick city Ireland 🇮🇪

This deserves more subs so i subscibe.

This was a funny, yet, realistic review

Need a bigger tablet to replace my Tab A8 2019 SPen, was torn in between Tab s5e and Tab s6 lite. But then i got lucky i found a used Tab S4 in perfect condition with keyboard case for price a little less than those two tablets mentioned.

Are you just gonna ignore that the tab s6 lite will be supported with software updates for longer than tab s5e.

In Canada the S5E is 100 (75 us) dollars more than the S6 Lite. For me the S6 Lite is already a lot for me to spend on something I wanna use for light games, reading, watching videos and apps. The extra 100 dollars and then tax (which is a lot in Canada) makes the S6 Lite the better option for me.

Great review! I've been thinking about buying this for Netflix watching but I've noticed that it dosent support HDR10. The S4, s6 and S7 do. Is this difference really noticeable? Cheers

i bought a Tab S6 (renewed) this year for 330.00. great value. it didn't come with a stylus but i bought one seperately.

My tablet s6 lite... Nice... Good review anna👌👌👌👌

Very thorough and overall excellent comparison clip. Good job and thanks. I purchased my S5e just after it was released and love it.

Still love my old LG g pad 8.3 with ir blaster,i hate small screens

Did you actually use the Tab s6 Lite?

almost bought the S6 lite... will go for the S6 on sale. thanks

10:17 And my 2019 iPad Air has a Bill Cosby Pudding effect.

if we compare S5e vs S4 ,which one deserve to buy?

Excellent and very informative review. One funny thing: in Italy Tab S5E is more expensive than Tab S6 Lite.......Samsung shares your opinions :-)

As someone used to a PC with 3 27 inch displays, I definitely get not liking to use KZfaq on a phone, or doing almost anything on a phone. I got the S5e (128GB/6GB) because it seemed like the logical upgrade from my dying Tab S2. Can't go back to LCDs on mobile devices, OLEDs are just too good, especially after using OLED devices for 7 years now.

I like spen on board inside, to hi light my magazines. Galaxy 10.1 was the best.

Watching on my new s5e 64gb cellular which I got for £369 I love it worth every penny ❤ ♥
