Samsung launched a new, more affordable tablet in the Galaxy Tab S6 Lite, offering it in two versions with Wi-Fi and LTE connectivity. The device will come in three colours (oxford grey, chiffon pink and mint) and is compatible with the company’s S Pen stylus, which is included in the box for a fuller product experience.
The Tab S6 Lite is not to be confused with the previous Tab S6 Lite that launched in 2022, though the two share a lot in common. This new 2024 model represents a slight refresh that mainly focuses on performance over design changes.

Kobo is releasing its first ever colour eReaders, coming in two distinct models: the Kobo Libra Colour and Kobo Clara Colour. This is something of a milestone for the company, which has never produced a device with a colour display before, as all previous models used monochrome E Ink Carta 1200 displays.
Introducing colour stands as an upgrade for both the Clara Colour and Libra Colour, though they are otherwise very similar to their non-colour predecessors. Rather than a major overhaul or upgrade, Kobo is tweaking the components inside to accommodate the new displays.

Size isn’t the issue with a tablet like the Samsung Galaxy Tab S9+, though you may have to consider the cost and how long you plan to keep it. The Tab S9+ sits in the middle of the latest trio of Android tablets from Samsung, with the Tab S9 Ultra on the high end and regular Tab S9 on the lower end.
All three are high-end premium devices, so there’s no real major step down here, but as the proverbial “middle child”, the Tab S9+ is an interesting choice. It offers so much of what the Ultra does, yet feels like an upgrade over its regular sibling. Either way, it’s a big tablet that comes with t ..read more

The Kobo Elipsa 2E brings back the stylus that made the previous model unique amongst the company’s eReaders, including the big screen. This may be the newer model but it retains much of what was in its predecessor.

Targeted upgrades for both the device and the stylus combine to make the experience of actually writing on it more engaging. There’s a lot to it when breaking it all down, but you’ll need to want to use the stylus to make it worth your while.
