Design and Display
The Samsung Galaxy J6 Plus doesn’t really have a sophisticated design, instead you have a simple outlook. It has a polished back that appears quite reflective in a glassy way. The camera arrangement looks very much like that of the Samsung Galaxy S9 wiht Samsung written boldly below it. At the front, you have bezels well reduced at the side but still very evident at the top and bottom.
Favouring the ongoing large size display predilection, the smartphone has a 6.0-inch display. Being an LCD screen, visibity is okay and typical of a budget smartphone. The resolution is somewhat on the low end as it is just a 720 X 1480 pixels with a pixel density of 274 ppi)
Battery and Camera
Being an average performer that it is, the Samsung J-series have never been about behemoth battery capacity. On the Samsung Galaxy J6 Plus, there is a 3 ,300mAh battery which is pretty much a day use at most. No fast charge is supported on the smartphone instead you will have to make do with the normal charging timeline.
You don’t have to expect a great camera on this smartphone being that it occupies the budget category. For what it’s worth, the smartphone has two cameras at the rear side comprising of a 13MP primary shooter and a 5MP camera with dual tone led flash. There’s a fair chance of a good selfie in good light condition with the 8MP front camera.

Things are very much basic on the inside, with a quad-core SoC running the show. That said, the Qualcomm Snapdragon 425 processor goes with an Adreno 308 GPU. Two variants are available, a 3GB RAM version paired with 32GB of storage space and another with 4GB RAM as well as 64GB internal storage.
