Samsung Galaxy A6 + Review: The Selfie Camera and Infinity Display are the highlights of this phone.
According to the latest figures from Counterpoint, Samsung seems to have returned to the top after a few quarters to catch up with Xiaomi. Under pressure, Samsung launched a series of smartphones in India in the second quarter with its Infinity Display feature, now available at more affordable prices.
While the J series has enjoyed considerable success in India, Galaxy A6 + is another option of the company, which sports this 19.2: 9 ratio display. But the Galaxy A6 + also receives a larger 3500 battery mAh, and a front camera that is 24MP. The Galaxy A6 + is a mid-range phone from Samsung in terms of price, since it costs Rs 25,990 at launch.

Samsung Galaxy A6 + Reviews: What's good?
Samsung certainly has the advantage with its Infinity screen, and Galaxy A6 + with its 6 inches full HD SAMOLED + display with a minimum of glbades on the side looks good. Yes, the phone has a chin up and down on the front, but what I like in the general design is that it is lightweight and easy to use with one hand . Despite the 6-inch display, Galaxy A6 + does not seem overwhelming.
The phone has a metal construction and we had the black and gold version of the unit for review. I must admit that I am not a fan of gold, although the overall design will appeal to most. Samsung has placed the dual rear camera in a vertical alignment at the back of the phone, and the fingerprint sensor is underneath.

There are two rather prominent antenna strips at the back of the phone though. The speaker grill is not located at the bottom, but on the right side of the phone, just above the power button. The volume buttons are on the left side. Samsung has also included a dedicated microSD slot on this phone, which is good to see. This is a dual-SIM smartphone. At the bottom is the micro-USB charging port, and a headphone jack.
I would say that the screen is definitely the highlight of this smartphone. The Full HD + resolution is good enough to watch videos, the color reproduction is solid. The icons appear vivid, and I've certainly enjoyed watching videos on this phone.
Coming from the Overall performance of the Galaxy A6 +, this one comes with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 450 processor, which is definitely underperforming for the price.For regular use, such as multi-tasking on Chrome, the opening of social media applications like Facebook or just watch YouTube, the phone is working well I have not noticed any significant heating issues s when using this phone.
The Galaxy A6 + also comes with a Samsung Face Unlock feature, which works well to quickly unlock the phone. Setting up is also easy and a quick process that most users will appreciate.

Coming to the camera, it's a bit of a coincidence. The camera manages to get good shots, but sometimes there is a noticeable shutter lag. Color reproduction is good, and even low-light or night shots seem acceptable. While the Live Focus (which is what Samsung calls the "Portrait" or Bokeh mode) gives great results, one really needs to spend time figuring out the exact distance, angle when the camera is in focus. using this mode. The amount of patience needed to get the right shot through Live can be frustrating at times.

Coming to the selfie camera, that's good enough, and can capture results with a lot of detail. Even the selfies captured inside seem good, and fortunately not too wrong, which can be a problem on some phones. However, the & # 39; Selfie Focus & # 39; Portrait Mode, still needs some tweaking to perfect it as the edges are not sharp.
The Galaxy A6 + is a solid option when it comes to battery life. It could easily last a day considering the 3500 mAh battery on board, with heavy or moderate tasks. On PCMark, he scored about 11 hours more, which is good to see.
Samsung Galaxy A6 + Review: Qu & Is not good?
My main concern with the Galaxy A6 + was the performance.The Galaxy A6 + is really underpowered for its price and it shows. of notifications would result in the freezing of the phone quite often.The game experience, at least on the heavy graphics games like Asphalt 8 and Nova Legacy is far from ideal. could not say that the game does not work, but there is sometimes a lag. Again, we do not expect these problems at a price of Rs 20,000.
The speaker's position on the Galaxy A6 + is to say the least annoying.
The shutter lag of the camera is also a problem in my opinion. Even with the Live Focus, the camera would take 10 to 15 seconds to process and load the image. Honestly one wonders why Samsung has not opted for a high-end processor with this phone. In addition, the low light performance is just average, and there is a lot of noise in some pictures.
The old micro-USB port at the bottom is also a lack. Another problem with the phone would be the placement of the speaker. Be careful not to cover this by watching videos. And it happened often enough, and the sound disappeared completely.
Samsung Galaxy A6 + Review: Verdict
The Galaxy A6 + is pretty good phone, but it lacks a little more power, which would have made this unbeatable at this price. For those who want the newest screen, and a better selfie camera at this price, Galaxy A6 + is definitely an option to consider. But at this price, we expect more than one Samsung phone.
The major negative point is that the price is too high for global specifications. For those looking for more powerful performance, phones like Moto X4 or Nokia 7 Plus might be a better choice.
