With spring in the air and Mother's Day around the corner, chances are you're considering buying a tablet. Whether you want to treat yourself or your mom this season, here's a deal you might like.

Currently, the Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite is on sale for just $199 at Amazon. Previously $253, that's $66 in savings, and the biggest discount it's seen yet.

Considering that it sold for $329 when it launched in May 2024, this is an excellent value for the price. I track sales for a living, and this is one of the best tablet deals I've seen so far this year.

If you want flagship tablet features at an affordable price, the Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ticks all the right boxes.

We didn't test this 2024 refresh; however, in our previous-gen Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite review, we rated it 4 out of 5 stars. Our reviewer said it's "an excellent option if you want a basic tablet to watch videos, browse the web, or use Android apps."

The same holds for the Galaxy Tab S6 Lite in this deal. It features a 10.4-inch WUXGA+ (2000 x 1200) touchscreen and is powered by Samsung's Exynos 1280 8-core processor alongside 4 GB of RAM.

Rounding out its specs are AKG-tuned dual speakers with Dolby Atmos, a massive 7,040mAh battery for up to 14 hours of battery life (rated), and 64GB of microSD-expandable storage (up to 1TB).

If you need more wiggle room, I recommend the Samsung Plus microSD for $17 at Amazon.

Like its predecessor, the Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ships with a nifty S Pen, which makes it convenient to sketch, take notes, edit images, and more.

Now just under $200, the Galaxy Tab S6 Lite is a sensible choice if you're in the market for a new tablet. There's no telling how long this deal will last, so I recommend you grab it while you can.
