And that's why we've put the specs for both tablets side-by-side in the table below. Among the most notable upgrades here are the Bluetooth S Pen and the considerably higher horsepower thanks to the Snapdragon 855 chipset. There's even a dual camera on-board the Tab S6, although Samsung has ditched the LED flash from the Tab S5e (and the Tab S4). And if you care about having the coolest tech on your devices, the Tab S6 also puts the fingerprint sensor under the display.
Check out our devices section for more details on these tablets and our Galaxy Tab S6 hands-on to see our initial impressions of the tablet. Also look forward to our Galaxy Tab S6 review in the coming weeks.
