Which is better!
This is really one of the toughest conclusion We had to do because there are so many things that are going for the Tab S6 and not just price-wise also the feel the screen the power and all of that but then there’s also a lot of things going for the Tab S7 Plus. We don’t like the bulkiness and so on so it’s really a subjective choice here. if we had a choice we would choose the Tab S7 Plus. Because of high performance, battery, etc Tab S7 stands tall.
