Also, we\u2019re not seeing a 128GB version nor an LTE version, though that may be because the slate just launched and stores are still updating their online inventory (the 2022 edition doesn\u2019t show up on Samsung Italy yet).<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"inline-image\" width=\"1200\" height=\"881\" alt=\"The contents of the retail package include an S Pen and a charger\" src=\"https:\/\/fdn.gsmarena.com\/imgroot\/news\/22\/05\/samsung-galaxy-tab-s6-lite-2022-edition\/inline\/-1200\/gsmarena_007.jpg\"\/><span><strong>The contents of the retail package include an S Pen and a charger<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>The rest is the same. The Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite (2022) has a 10.4\u201d LCD with 2,000 x 1,200px resolution, which supports the included S Pen. It is powered by a Snapdragon 720G chipset (with 4GB of RAM, 64GB storage and a microSD slot) and a 7,040mAh battery. There is a pair of AKG-tuned speakers with Dolby Atmos support and a 3.5mm jack. Check out our hands-on review of the original for more details, just keep in mind that the software is now Android 12 with One UI 4.0.<\/p>\n<p class=\"article-source\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.it\/Touchscreen-espandibili-Batteria-Versione-italiana\/dp\/B09Y99M81M\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"source-image\">https:\/\/fdn.gsmarena.com\/imgroot\/news\/22\/05\/samsung-galaxy-tab-s6-lite-2022-edition\/-952x498w6\/gsmarena_000.jpg<\/div>\n<div class=\"source-link\">https:\/\/www.gsmarena.com\/samsung_galaxy_tab_s6_lite_2022_quietly_launches_with_android_12-news-54301.php?rand=119<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite (2022) quietly launches with Android 12 Samsung has quietly come out with another 2022 edition of a 2020 device \u2013 the Galaxy Tab S6 Lite slate has been freshened up and is up on Amazon Italy, accepting pre-orders.
