Design and Display
The Blackview A60 plus design isn’t really far fetched from what have on its less premium sibling. It’s the same basic design architecture, with a slight difference in the design pattern on the rear.
Blackview opted for a dual-tone pattern on the rear, in lieu of the gradient design on the non-plus A60 variant. On the rear, you will find dual cameras, an LED flash, a capacitive fingerprint sensor, a Blackview branding, indicating it’s a Blackview smartphone.
Enthusiasts who decide to purchase the Blackview A60 Plus will have three colour options and they include black, green, and blue.
Moving up front, we find a 6.09-inch IPS LCD display with a resolution of 1280 x 600 pixels, a density of 232 PPI. This display also happens to bear a drop notch housing its front-facing cameras.
The Cameras
The camera department indicates that the Blackview A60 Plus isn’t a total upgrade over the standard A60. There are drawbacks. It can also be analyzed that Blackview made this drawback to empower another feature, to retain a low budget.
On the rear, we have an 8MP dual system as opposed to the 13MP setup as seen on the standard A60. This camera has an aperture of f/2.0 and is powered by an OV8858 Sensor.
Upfront we have a single 5MP camera for selfies and videos. This camera is powered by a GC5025 Sensor.
Hardware and Software

On the software side, the A60 Plus runs its user interface on top of the Android 10 operating system.
