Aside from simply browsing the internet and checking email etc, which every tablet should be able to do, there are two main reasons to get this tablet IMHO.It excels at drawing. It's been a while since I've looked into drawing tablets - back in the day if you wanted a good tablet for drawing you got a mid screen and all it did was draw. No internet, nothing. This is a full fat tablet (that basically does the role of a desktop or laptop for your average user) and it has a great pen experience. I've been drawing with krita, which is a very feature dense program and there is no lag.The other thing it does great is media. The screen is awesome and the speakers are surprisingly loud. Because it's in the android ecosystem you can run Firefox as your browser and get ublock origin meaning you never have to see ads as long as you're using Firefox (notably for YouTube). The tablet also natively will keep playing YouTube when you turn off the screen. Or at least it does with Firefox - never had any desire to download the app, frankly. The screen is big enough to be a significant improvement over even a large phone. But not so big that it feels hard to be portable.The other half of media is games. Obviously this is not a gaming PC. It's not going to run any real heavy duty games. But if you want it for mobile games especially card games like slay the spire, legends of runeterra, or hearthstone, then this is just basically the perfect device for them. The screen has great color and contrast, so since graphical fidelity is not the limiter with these, they can actually look better on this than a PC because the screen is great. It's also basically the perfect size for card games. Large enough to feel like the full primo experience, but small enough you don't feel like you are dragging your finger across miles of realestate for every action.Seems the one place that isn't amazing is the battery. The battery is fine. It's not bad, it's not great. It will last you long enough, but it's not going to knock your socks off.Unless you have a really specific reason that you absolutely NEED a larger screen or something, I can't really imagine recommending a different tablet at the moment.

I've had it for a little over two months, and I absolutely love this tablet! I needed something where I could mark up PDFs easily, and this hits the spot. Using the s-pen is so much fun, and it's really easy to use, and is fairly responsive. I also love the ability to adapt handwritten notes into text so I can copy them into different documents later, or just make my notes look better in type after I've scribbled them all over the place. The penup app for drawing is super fun and I've been trying my hand at the learn to draw videos, which teaches you a lot about line work and shading techniques. It's a great tablet for work and personal use, and you can't beat the price. I enjoy it much more than the ipad I used for work years ago. The touch screen is responsive, and the quality of the screen and colors are really nice. Make sure you get a cover too!

Awesome tablet. Great for studying, drawing, and work. Games are great. The picture quality is amazing. The pencil is so precise and easy to use.The only downfall is that the charge doesn’t last and it takes a long time to charge back up.

I have this as a secondary tablet, alongside an M1 iPad Pro 11".The Tab S6 Lite is no where near as powerful, but that's ok. It's still a quite usable tablet, with solid construction and good battery life.My main use cases: taking notes with Samsung Notes, reading books (FBReader, Bible Study by Olive Tree), playing games (nothing demanding, mostly Stardew Valley, Another Eden, and some emulation of older consoles), programming (under Termux), music (YT Music) and audio books (Audible). All of these work well on it. It takes a little longer to start some of the games than my iPad, but they run fine once loaded. It's not great for multitasking. I've found that using two apps in split screen is ok. It feels a bit sluggish with three on screen. When running larger games it'll have to restart apps when switching. None of this is problematic for me, but it's worth noting.Battery life has been good so far. On my longest day with it I started using it about 10 AM, and plugged it in at 11 PM with 29% remaining battery. During that time I only had the screen off for two hours, and it was otherwise in continual use. (I run about 25-30% brightness). About half of that time was spent reading, and the rest was a mix of playing Stardew Valley, taking notes, and programming under Termux.Notetaking is pretty nice. The included S Pen works well, and attaches magnetically to the top. It does not need charging, so is always ready to use. My son (more artistically inclined than I) says it's not as good at pressure sensitivity as the Apple Pencil, but he had no complaints with the feel or accuracy.The build quality is fine. The tablet is a little heavy, but feels solid. It's a touch more slippery than I'd like, but this hasn't actually been a problem. I have no other complaints on this.The display is a bit of a let down. The resolution is fine, but there's a bit of backlight bleed along the edge with the USB C port. It also has a lot of glare. I can mostly ignore these, but they are sometimes a bit problematic.
