You know what’s weird about tablet launches these days? Everyone’s going premium with $1000+ slabs, but sometimes you just need something that works without selling a kidney. Word on the street is Samsung’s cooking up a Galaxy Tab S10 Lite, and it’s basically their way of saying “hey, not everyone needs a flagship tablet.” This article will discuss everything about the rumored Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 Lite, including leaked specifications and expected pricing.
Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 Lite Rumored
Display and Design
Okay, so from what we’re hearing, Samsung’s going with a 10.9-inch LCD this time. Yeah, not AMOLED like the fancy Tab S11 series they’re rumored to launch alongside this. But here’s the thing – at the leaked €399 price, you’re not exactly expecting miracles. The 2112 × 1320 px resolution sounds decent enough for most stuff, and rumors suggest it’ll support the S Pen right out of the box.
The leaked design follows the same language as other Tab S10 models. You’re supposedly getting those dark antenna lines, single rear camera setup, and a dedicated slot for the S Pen on the back. Colors are rumored to be Gray, Silver, and Pink.
Performance
One thing that caught my attention was Samsung sticking with their own Exynos 1380 chipset. Well, basically this is the same chip they used in some Galaxy A-series phones. It’s not going to set any benchmarks on fire, but for web browsing, media consumption, and light productivity, it should do just fine.
You’re getting either 6GB or 8GB of RAM with 128GB or 256GB storage options. The 8,000 mAh battery is actually pretty generous for this price range. All things considered, it’s rather funny that they went with 25W charging when some rumors suggest it might support 45W. We don’t know if that’s just Samsung being conservative with their specs or what.

Why does this even exist?
From where we’re getting leaks, Samsung’s supposedly launching this alongside the Tab S11 and Tab S11 Ultra in September. But makes no sense to compare them directly – the Tab S11 is rumored to start at €899 with AMOLED, Dimensity 9400, and 12GB RAM. That’s literally double the expected price.
More often than not, people just want a tablet that can handle Netflix, some light gaming, and maybe note-taking with the S Pen. The Tab S10 Lite seems to fill that gap pretty nicely. The problem, I think, is not everyone needs flagship specs for basic tablet stuff.
Connectivity and Protection
Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.3, and optional 5G is what you are getting in this tab. IP42 protection means it can handle some dust and light water drops. The energy efficiency rating is F, which isn’t great, but that massive 8,000 mAh battery should still get you through the day.

Samsung hasn’t announced anything official yet, but based on the leaked European prices, if this actually launches and makes it to Nepal, it would probably start at no less than NPR 65,000 for the base Wi-Fi model.
