He also covers almost anything connected to a PC, including keyboards, mice, USB-C docks and PC gaming accessories. In addition, he writes about cameras, including action cams and drones. And while he doesn't consider himself a gamer, he spends entirely too much time playing them.
Starting at $350, the Tab S6 Lite is essentially the Android equivalent of Apple's basic iPad. Samsung, as usual, delivers a bit more for the money, making this an excellent pick if you're looking for a pen-enabled tablet for work and play.
