It definitely tells you how popular the S6 Lite is if Samsung is willing to keep it alive with a second refresh. It means they must be selling a lot of them.
@AndroidDigest Ай бұрын
I think It's possible that it's really cheap for them to make because they are using similar parts. They just update the processor. Also, that allows them to drop the price a lot and people are willing to get something cheap

Keep in mind they may be giving away the 2022 version with that device. It's definitely going to be a big step down from the bigger phones out there. But the main advantage is going to be just having a larger screen for videos, and having an s pen. It's a nice bonus for sure. But when you have a high-end phone, you have to make sure you have to keep your expectations in check. No high refresh rate screen.

Right now i have the 32 gig galaxy tab a7, is it worth buying this new s6 lite to replace it? There is a load for sale on the secondary market because phone companies are giving them as gifts with new phone contacts, I can get one for £170 GBP/$216.
@AndroidDigest 15 күн бұрын
Just remember that a lot of those on the secondary market might be the 2022 model. That will still be a very significant jump up from what you have though. I'd compare this with the A9+ and S9 FE. If you could find the S9 Fe for a similar price, that would be a steal because it is a better tablet overall. The A9 Plus is very close to as good of a tablet as well. Just no s pen. If you're okay with that, you could look for that too. They even have a version with 8 gigabytes of RAM. The S6 Lite is great though if you want an s pen. So it's definitely a worthy upgrade compared to what you have. I'd definitely be looking for one. Just saying depending on what sales don't be afraid to grab the A9+ or spend a little more and get the S9 FE, again, depending on the sales
@paulquinn4704 15 күн бұрын
@@AndroidDigest it's the 2024 model they are giving with phones over here (uk) my 32gig a7 memory is almost full so need something better. There is a big difference in price for the s9fe in the uk (£449 GBP/ $571 US), so will have to settle for the a7. So it's definitely a bit better than what I have then? I just don't want to spend the money & end up with something the same 😂

I have a beaten up tab s6 lite 2020. The tab s6 lite 2024 is now $250 but the Tab s9 Fe is $350. Should I upgrade and Is the 100 dollar difference worth it?
@AndroidDigest Ай бұрын
Yes. Definitely worth it in my opinion. If you can swing it. It's worth it. It's a better screen, better performance, better refresh rate, water Resistance, bigger battery, a fingerprint sensor. Personally I'd get it. But if someone really wanted an s pen and didn't have the money I wouldn't knock them for saving the cash either

I am considering getting this tablet to replace my old one. Do you still have this tablet and does it still work?
@AndroidDigest 3 күн бұрын
I still do. It's a good tracker tablet. But it's very much in a middle spot. It's basically similar to the Galaxy Tab A9+ in most ways, but it comes with a stylus. So the A9+ can be good for those who don't need a stylus. If you want one, around $350 you can often find the S9 FE which is a nice upgrade with performance and other things. BUT this device is in the middle ground, it's been on sale around $230 lately. Just more then the A9+ and just less then the S9 FE. The FE is a good upgrade if you see it on sale. But this is smaller. Lighter. Cheaper. And still decent to get

@PLANETWATERMELON Ай бұрын
Always great videos, but we all got our opinions and mine is if you don't need the S-Pen just get the Tab A9+ which has 8gb RAM, better screen, better speakers and is actually less expensive. If you do need the S-Pen just get the Tab s9 FE when it is on sale for $349.99 which has even a better screen, 6gb RAM, includes the S-PEN and is still even less expensive. And you're not stuck having to purchase it from Amazon which offers IMO no good additional protection coverage like Best Buy.
@AndroidDigest Ай бұрын
But we actually shared the same opinion! In fact your comment is pretty much the premise of my video. The s-pen is the one reason to consider this. IF you find it on sale, and if you're desperate for an s-pen, then sure, for $200, or $230, $250, even $280, that's fine. If you can't afford more, and you basically want a similar device to the A9+ with an s-pen, that's the target audience. But in most cases, like you said, the S9 FE is the way to go (I recommended that in the video too) because it's only $20 more right now with the sales. So I wasn't super negative towards this tablet, but yeah, it's in that middle spot. The A9+ is better in a lot of ways, and it's $100 cheaper. Sometimes even cheaper than that after sales. And the S9 FE is on sale for nearly the same price as the S6 Lite 2024, and it's WAY better. The only reason to get the S6 Lite 2024, is if you find it on sale for like $230 AND you really really want an s-pen. At that point, for people on a budget who need an s-pen, it's really the only decent option. But in most cases the S9 FE will be a better value, or the A9+. We are 10000% on the same page. Also, I love what you said at the end, Best Buy's insurance has been huge for me. $180 a year, and because I buy tech all the time, I have insurance on everything from my router, to my Bluetooth mouse, my phone, my laptop, and my tablet, all because I bought it through Best buy. That extra protection is worth something, so I definitely prefer buying from there over Amazon.

Hi, great video! I need your opinion, in my country.. If you buy S6 Lite 2024 for 5.5m or $345, you'll get Galaxy buds 2 for free. And for S9 FE, it costs 6.5m or $410 with no freebies. So which one should i get ? This will be my first time using a tablet though. Thanky 😊
@AndroidDigest Ай бұрын
Part of it depends on if you have any headphones at all, and I would also say it depends on what type of phone you have. If you have a pretty fast phone, higher end phone, I would recommend just getting the s9 Fe. There is a nice jump in performance. And the screen is also a little nicer too. And it has a higher refresh rate. It's just overall a big jump. For that hundred extra dollars I would take that, and I would just look for some type of deal out there on headphones separately. That's what I would do in your shoes probably. But if you really really need good headphones and you want Samsung headphones, that may be worth looking into. In the US, we could use a thing like eBay and probably find those headphones for like $50. Anyway. If you have the money, and you don't have a gigantic need of headphones this second, I do think the Samsung is still a better value, the Fe.

You should really just watch this whole video. I pretty much explain it even if I use US prices to explain it. The A9+ has a better refresh rate on the screen. The s6 Lite 2024 (only the 2024 version) has a better gpu, and an s pen. It's pretty even other than that. So get the S6 Lite if you want an s pen. That's assuming you get the 2024 model. Otherwise get that A9+

That's a good point. I think it's because they didn't change anything at all about the device. It doesn't have the same camera setup as all the other devices. The Fe devices, for example, have the same exact camera design as the tab S9. All of the other Samsung phones from the same generation share the same exact physical design for the most part. This is keeping the same design as the S6 lite. That's probably their justification

Spen nibs are still a minefield crapshoot to find. Lot of third-party scratch hard, no rubberized tip or wear like pencil lead soft. Official replacements remain secret. Rams still low. But to be honest biggest gripe remains the waffle and poor use as second screen intersecting with the lack of usb video out. Superdisplay or scrcpy likes exist but are not android to android options. Recent KZfaq av1 change also hurt all versions of this tab a bit.
@AndroidDigest Ай бұрын
I just don't mind a lot of those things for the price. Most devices won't come with a stylus at all, and this device will go on sale pretty often for around $200. So still a good option even if it's not for everyone. But you've got legit gripes here too
