Excellent quality, absolutely not expected for such a price.

I repeat, as I wrote about the Tab S4 earlier - this tablet should be considered as an advanced notebook (very expensive!) And a laptop replacement for not very responsible business trips and trips where no serious and processor-loading work is expected.
The tablet does an excellent job of reading and annotating pdf. files, viewing and light photo editing, and after installing the Adobe Scan program, there is no need for a scanner and you get a small mobile office for various, but not too complex tasks.
Great for handwritten notes.
Attention! An important feature: the keyboard is not rigidly fastened to the tablet, so the tablet cannot be kept on your knees, for example, in vehicles where there are no tables. If you need to work on weight with a keyboard - look at Tab S4 or iPads.
Children really like the tablet in the sense of drawing, for which there are various programs in addition to the native Penup.
Also, I personally think that in such expensive tablets, the keyboard is a mandatory accessory, and without it, buying such a tablet is meaningless. The same is true for the stylus.
Because I do not play, then I can not evaluate the performance in games.

Pros

Great tablet! Before that, I used Tab S4. That one is great too, but the Tab S6 does have a better keyboard (with the exception of one feature, described below). Finally there is a "Delete" button! Well, the function keys are really useful. Galaxy Tab S6 can replace a laptop to a limited extent for simple office tasks, such as writing a simple document or excel spreadsheet. In addition, it is convenient to read books from this tablet, as well as work with pdf files. The stylus has become even better than in the Tab S4, or rather, the pen tip itself has improved, due to which it is possible to write letters and lines more accurately and smoothly by hand. Convenient native cover with keyboard - it is convenient to hold the tablet with the rear stand folded down (with the native keyboard removed). The tablet easily opens a 700 page Word report and similar heavy documents.

Cons

I note that there are no critical shortcomings, but I would like something, and something that is just a little annoying. The limitations of the software are frustrating, in particular the inability to open several Word documents in the Microsoft office (in officesuite, for example, you can). In addition, there will definitely be limitations in terms of programs for professional activities (although AutoCAD is installed and you can even make simple drawings there, but it’s far from as convenient as on a computer). In short, I would like not only Dex, but also that Windows could be installed. Attention, the fingerprint scanner does not work when a protective glass is installed on the screen. Sometimes the keyboard comes unfastened, i. E. in some tightly stuffed bag, the magnets may not hold the native keyboard. The keyboard, by analogy with modern laptops, bends back with the keys up, which annoys me extremely (in laptops too). There is no jack 3.5 - this is just sadness, because. Wireless earphones sit down at the most inopportune moment.
