For some time now, rumors about Samsung re-releasing the Galaxy Tab S6 Lite a second time have been floating around. It sounded unexpected, but it turned out it was all correct. Samsung kicked off the week with a surprise launch of the Galaxy Tab S6 Lite (2024) tablet in Europe.
The re-refreshed Galaxy Tab S6 Lite (2024) tablet popped up on the official Samsung online store in Romania today. It’s not yet available for purchase, so there are no pricing details. However, the tablet and all its specifications are now confirmed.
In the marketing material, the Galaxy Tab S6 Lite (2024) is showcased in two familiar-looking colors, Chiffon Pink and Oxford Gray, and one new Mint option. However, only the Gray and Mint options are selectable at the online shop in Romania
Spec-wise, the tablet features 64GB or 128GB of storage, 4GB of RAM, and a newer chipset that’s actually been around for some time.
Same old tablet with a newer chip
Samsung’s official store page for the refreshed Galaxy Tab S6 Lite (2024) doesn’t specify exactly which chip the “new” tablet has, but the 2.4GHz and 2.0GHz frequencies reconfirm we’re looking at an Exynos 1280 SoC. It’s not exactly new, but it is newer than the original Exynos 9611 used by the 2020 Tab S6 Lite version or the 2022 model’s Snapdragon 720G/732G.
Aside from the new chip, nothing else appears to have changed about the re-refreshed Galaxy Tab S6 Lite (2024). It has a 10.4-inch TFT display with a resolution of 2000 x 1200, an 8MP primary camera, a 5MP selfie camera, and a microSD card slot. It even has a 3.5mm headphone port, which is seldom seen on mobile devices nowadays.
Another benefit of the newer chip is that the refreshed 2024 tablet model has improved connectivity, including Bluetooth 5.3 instead of 5.0. However, it has LTE connectivity and doesn’t boast any 5G capabilities.
The battery has the same 7,040mAh capacity as before, and the tablet ships with an S Pen included in the box. Furthermore, the 2024 Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ships with the latest One UI 6.1 version from Samsung, but there’s no mention of any Galaxy AI features. The Exynos 1280 SoC is probably not powerful enough to handle Samsung’s Advanced Intelligence.
Speaking of the Exynos 1280, it’s worth noting that it’s almost as old as the original Galaxy Tab S6 Lite refresh released in 2022. The chip debuted in March 2022, and the most recent device that uses it, apart from this tablet refresh, is the Galaxy A25.
Based on the leaks and rumors it seems increasingly likely that Meta is working on a cheaper version of the Meta Quest 3 – expected to be called the Meta Quest 3 Lite or Meta Quest 3s.
It’s not yet been confirmed, but the gadget is expected to be a more affordable version of the Quest 3 – at a price closer to the Quest 2 – that would see the Meta fully phase out its last-gen VR hardware. The trade-off would be the device wouldn’t have all the capabilities of the Quest 3 – likely sporting lower-resolution displays, less RAM, a worse chipset, or dropping mixed reality support (though that last point seems unlikely).
We’ve collected the latest news and rumors here so this page can serve as your one-stop shop for all things Meta Quest 3 Lite. As we learn more about the device we’ll be sure to update the page and keep you in the loop with all the latest information.

Meta Quest 3 Lite: Price
As the Meta Quest 3 Lite isn’t yet official – meaning Meta itself hasn’t confirmed (or denied) its existence – we can’t say for certain how much it’ll cost or when it will be released.
Get the hottest deals available in your inbox plus news, reviews, opinion, analysis and more from the TechRadar team.
But based on rumors and previous Meta hardware releases, we can make some reasoned predictions on what the gadget might cost and when we could see it in action.
Price-wise, we can reasonably expect it’ll cost around the same as Meta’s last-gen headset, given the Lite is billed as a super-affordable model meant to fully replace the Oculus Quest 2. It’ll certainly cost less than the Meta Quest 3.
This would likely see it released at around $299 / £299 / AU$479, which is where the Quest 2 started life. Honestly, we’d be more than a little disappointed if it was more expensive.

Meta Quest 3 Lite: Release date
As for the Quest 3 Lite’s release date, Meta usually likes to release new hardware in October. However, it might decide to mix things up with this budget-friendly gadget to avoid confusing it with its main line Quest and Quest Pro lines.
We predict the Quest 3 Lite will be announced and released as part of this year’s Meta Quest Gaming Showcase, which should be around June based on previous years.
If Meta sticks to its usual hardware release schedule, though, then a launch after this year’s Meta Connect – which we expect will land in September or October – could be on the cards.
Of course, this assumes the Meta Quest 3 Lite even launches at all.

Meta Quest 3 Lite: Specs and design
So far we haven’t heard many specs for the Meta Quest 3 Lite. The main leaks so far have been renders showing off its possible design.
These leaks suggest it’ll be bulkier than the Quest 3, likely because the Lite would adopt the fresnel lens system used by the Quest 2. This makes some sense as fresnel lenses are cheaper, partly because the alternative pancake lenses require brighter displays. However, considering pancake lenses lead not only to a slimmer headset design but also better image quality (and we’ve seen cheap headsets like the Pico 4 use pancake lenses) we’d be surprised if Meta didn’t use them in the Lite.
One of the leaks went into more detailed specs, suggesting it’ll have 128GB or 256GB of storage (instead of the 128GB or 512GB in the Quest 3) and 1,832 x 1,920 pixel displays (one per eye). Something seems off about the leak, though, in terms of the assets shared and the included info that could help identify the leaker (which seems like a bad idea for anyone trying to avoid the wrath of Meta’s well-funded legal team).

As such, color us skeptical when it comes to the details highlighted in the post.
Meta Quest 3 Lite: Software
Assuming the Meta Quest 3 Lite has the same or similar mixed-reality capabilities as the Meta Quest 3, we expect it’ll have access to all of the same software – which is to say, everything available on the Quest platform’s Store (and many other games and apps available through sideloading via third-party digital storefronts).
If it has significantly worse specs – such as the Quest 2’s Snapdragon XR2 Gen 1 chipset – there may be some software that launches in the future that would be exclusive to the full Quest 3. But we expect the Quest 3 Lite would use a Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 so, hopefully, this won’t be an issue.
We’ll have to wait and see what Meta announces.

Meta Quest 3 Lite: What we want to see
As for what we want to see from the Quest 3 Lite VR headset – acknowledging that its lower price will necessitate lower specs than the Meta Quest 3 proper – our ideal setup would boast the same Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 chipset and 8GB of RAM as the Quest 3, though 6GB of RAM like the Quest 2 is, admittedly, a lot more likely.
Storage options would start at 64GB – as frankly, you don’t need a lot of storage space for VR apps, especially if you’re willing to download and delete them as necessary – and the displays would be a lower resolution than the Quest 3. A leak suggested the 1,832 x 1,920 pixels per eye option, and considering this is what’s used by the Quest 2 it does make some sense.
Pancake lenses seem like an easy win from a design and image-quality perspective (especially if Meta opts for poorer displays), and mixed-reality passthrough that’s at least as high-quality as the Quest 3 is also a must.
Beyond this, one rogue cost-cutting measure could see Meta scrap or change its Quest 3 controllers. However, given how much developers have emphasized to us the importance of VR handsets having a standard design, and the fact that many Quest titles don’t support hand-tracking, this might be a step too far.
Samsung could announce a new affordable tablet any day now. The Galaxy Tab S6 Lite, originally launched in 2020 and then refreshed in 2022, will debut once again with the same design and updated internals. The tablet will come in a new color, as revealed in the newly leaked images you can see below.
Galaxy Tab S6 Lite (2024) will come in Mint color
The Galaxy Tab S6 Lite (2024) will be available in three colors: Chiffon Pink, Mint, and Oxford Gray. While the Chiffon Pink and Oxford Gray colors were already seen with the 2022 version of the Galaxy Tab S6 Lite, the Mint color option is completely new. The tablet’s design stays the same as its 2022 version.
The upcoming affordable tablet has a 10.4-inch LCD screen with 2,000 x 1,200 pixels resolution and a bundled S Pen. Previous reports indicate that the Galaxy Tab S6 Lite (2024) will come equipped with the Exynos 1280 processor, 4GB RAM, 64GB/128GB internal storage, and a microSD card slot. It will run Android 14-based One UI 6.1 out of the box.
On the front, the tablet has a 5MP selfie camera. On the rear, the Galaxy Tab S6 Lite (2024) has an 8MP camera. It will be powered by the same 7,000mAh battery as its predecessor and have 15W fast charging. It will be available in 5G and Wi-Fi-only variants. Other connectivity options include GPS, Wi-Fi 5, Bluetooth 5.3, USB Type-C port, and a 3.5mm headphone jack.
According to previous reports, the Galaxy Tab S6 Lite (2024) will have a starting price of €429 for the Wi-Fi-only 64GB variant and go as high as €519 for the Wi-Fi + Cellular 128GB variant.
Open up our Meta Quest 3 review and you’ll see the virtual reality headset has a not-unreasonable starting price of $499.99 / £479.99 / AU$799.99 – certainly way below the $3,499 (or higher) you’ll pay for the Apple Vision Pro. However, it seems an even more affordable Meta headset is on the way.
After teasing what’s being called the Meta Quest 3 Lite earlier this month, VR Panda (via Android Authority) has posted a picture of the rumored device on social media. As you might have expected, it looks a lot like the Meta Quest 3.
There are some differences though – the passthrough cameras on the outside of the wearable have apparently been ditched, which presumably means augmented reality effects and any kind of hand tracking control are off the agenda.
The team at Android Authority reckons that further savings could come through the use of a more affordable processor. Savings are certainly going to have to be made somewhere, if Meta is going to manage to significantly undercut the price of the Quest 3.
As with every leak, we should apply a certain level of caution before taking it at face value. Last year we did hear talk that a cheaper Meta Quest VR device was on the way, but there hasn’t been an abundance of leaks and rumors about it – and of course company plans can always change when it comes to gadget launches.
The lack of any passthrough cameras would be a surprise, even if Meta is trying to save on production costs. The company has previously said that passthrough is likely to be a “standard feature” on future headsets, so make of that what you will.
If you’re wanting to strap a device to your head that mixes virtual reality and augmented reality, then the distinction between Apple and Meta is pretty clear – with the former company’s offering costing seven times as much.
Affordability is a big selling point for Meta to emphasize, and it looks as though that gap will grow even more with the next device. As yet though, there’s no indication about when a Meta Quest 3 Lite headset could see the light of day.
