10bit HEVC HW decoding support? - Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite Questions & Answers

Hello!
I'm wondering if the Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite supports hardware decoding for 10bit HEVC video? I'm worried since the Samsung website doesn't explicitly say 10-bit, only HEVC.
Also, how would you say the screen compares to IPS paneled tablets? I heard it's definitely not as good as the more expensive AMOLEDs, but what about against IPS tablets (since they are at a similar price point)?
Thanks all!

[Q] Snapdragon 4 Pro video/audio codec support

The Qualcomm Website, LG website (for the Optimus G), Google's Nexus 4 website, nor any reviews I've found thus far, have mentioned exactly what audio/video the Snapdragon s4 Pro supports in regard to hardware acceleration. There's the basic 'h.264 support' listed, but no mention of which profile (probably High), and what level (e.g. 4.0, 4.1). High Profile Level 4.1, for example, would be the minimum for playback of unmodified Blu Ray video. Then there's things like Hi10p support, container support, etc.
Can someone with Qualcomm dev access ferret out the actual video & audio codec and container hardware acceleration support for the S4 Pro?

VideoCore drivers released [PRO/DUOS]

As it is stated here: http://www.xda-developers.com/android/broadcom-releases-egl-drivers-for-samsung-galaxy-y/
Braodcom has released the EGL drivers for the VideoCore IV GPU found in the Galaxy Y family of devices, including the Duos and Pro Duos devices.
As I understand, this is quite a powerfull chip capable of even supporting display resolution of up to Full HD: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VideoCore
Using these drivers would allow us to unlock the full potential of our devices and make them snappier, while providing the following capabilities:
- Smoother UI.
- Full HW acceleration in games.
- Hardware decoding for watching Hi-Res videos which would stutter otherwise.
- Hardware encoding so we can capture video at higher resolutions. [not sure about that]
Developers, please add this to your ROMs/kernels.
Thank you!

Correct. I recorded a brief 4K video on the S800 Note 3 this weekend. 31s of video was 177mb, video bitrate 48Mbps.

You need a Snapdragon to be able to play 2K and 4K, the Exynos doesn't support rendering above 1080. Hence why it works on the 4G and not the 3G & WiFi-Only editions. (The Note 3 has the same issue if you use the Exynos edition.)

Tab A 10.1 (2016) HEVC support

Hi,
I'm looking to upgrade my trusty Nexus 7 (2013). I've been watching some HEVC / H.265 compressed TV shows / movies recently and the Nexus can't seem to cope any longer. This tablet seems like a good buy at under £200. I was also looking at the Huawei Mediapad M3 Lite and Lenovo Tab 4 8 Plus, all around the same price. I like the fact the screen can go over 500nits and I've got a Samsung S8 which I'm really happy with.
Would anyone recommend this as a good media consumption device? It'll mainly be used for Plex, Netflix and playing TV/Movies from the SD card. Can it play 1080p HEVC compressed files without a hitch? That's the deal breaker for me. I think this Exynos chip can decode H.265 native but I'd like to know what real-world use is like before investing.
Thanks in advance.
I have played HD Bluray 1080p on my Tab A 10.1 with s Pen. It plays it fine using VLC video player app. If I use the stock video app, I get no sound. I have both tablets: Tab A 10.1 & Tab A 10.1 with S Pen. The S pen version has a slightly bigger battery and 3 GB of ram. It's really difficult to kill the battery all in one day of use. I'm not a heavy user, so I rarely charge it.
