contents In this paper, we study the properties of Connes spectral distances between quantum states under unitary transformations. We mainly focus on spectral triples with matrix algebras acting on finite dimensional Hilbert spaces via some linear representations. We derive some elementary properties of the Connes spectral distances and optimal elements. We prove that there are some finite spectral triples in which the Lipschitz seminorms are equal to the operator norms. We also explicitly construct some spectral triples in which the Connes spectral distances between quantum states are exactly the quantum trace distances. These results and concrete examples are significant for studies of geometric structures of finite spectral triples and mathematical relations of qubits and other quantum states in the framework of noncommutative geometry.
