Samsung Galaxy J6 2018 32 GB UK SIM-Free Smartphone, Black, UK Version

Product Information

Information about additional software and hardware features of the rear camera which improve its overall performance. The Galaxy J6+ is powered by Qualcomm MSM8917 Snapdragon 425 (28 nm) SoC including a quad-core 1.4 GHz Cortex-A53 CPU, an Adreno 308 GPU with 3 or 4 GB RAM and 32 or 64 GB of internal storage which can be upgraded up to 256 GB via microSD card. [2] The aperture (f-stop number) indicates the size of the lens diaphragm opening, which controls the amount of light reaching the image sensor. The lower the f-stop number, the larger the diaphragm opening is, hence, the more light reaches the sensor. Usually, the f-stop number specified is the one that corresponds to the maximum possible diaphragm opening. Information about the number of pixels on the horizontal and vertical dimensions of the photos taken by the front camera, indicated in megapixels as well. The Galaxy J6 draws on Samsung’s display heritage, featuring a stunning Super AMOLED full-front Display to provide a truly immersive viewing experience,” said Paul Scott, Head of Mobile Product Management. “The Galaxy J6 combines this beautifully elegant design with an incredible camera experience, convenient features such as a rear fingerprint scanner and increased storage to allow you to capture and share to your heart’s content.”

Information about the number of pixels per centimeter (ppcm) or per inch (ppi) of the display. The higher the pixel density, the more detailed and clearer is the information displayed on the screen. Most smartphones and tablets with expanded storage capability take micro SD cards. Find out more about how to use an SD card with your device. But at least the camera is awesome, right? Well… How much can you really expect from a 13MP lens? It performs decently enough under well-lit conditions but we really doubt how the phone would perform in low-light situations. There doesn’t seem to be any image stabilisation either, in-built or otherwise, which creates issues when trying to capture a moving target. One of the main characteristics of the cameras is their image resolution. It states the number of pixels on the horizontal and vertical dimensions of the image, which can also be shown in megapixels that indicate the approximate number of pixels in millions. Now, let’s talk about the phone’s ‘Infinity Display’. The Samsung Galaxy J6 boasts of a Super-AMOLED (S-AMOLED) display with a 720 x 1480 resolution. In the short time that we’ve had the phone, the colors are vivid and the contrast is on-point. It’s a flagship feature that you don’t normally see on a budget phone.Information about the sensor type of the camera. Some of the most widely used types of image sensors on mobile devices are CMOS, BSI, ISOCELL, etc. Also, the budget smartphone houses an Exynos 7870 under the hood which is a, more or less, entry-level chipset. Though we hadn’t had the chance to test it extensively, it’s doubtful that the phone will be able to handle power intensive tasks too well. There might even be issues when playing graphic heavy games. System on Chip (SoC) A system on a chip (SoC) includes into a single chip some of the main hardware components of the mobile device. SoC The display resolution shows the number of pixels on the horizontal and vertical side of the screen. The higher the resolution is, the greater the detail of the displayed content.

Pixels are usually measured in microns (μm). Larger ones are capable of recording more light, hence, will offer better low light shooting and wider dynamic range compared to the smaller pixels. On the other hand, smaller pixels allow for increasing the resolution while preserving the same sensor size. The Galaxy J6 is the first in the J-series phones to have a near bezel-less design and to feature a sAMOLED 18.5:9 display. The phone comes with a single 13 MP rear camera with autofocus coupled with an LED flash. The front shooter has 8 MP also with its own front flash. The phone's cameras work well in daylight, though most criticisms point out the bad performance of the cameras in low light. The Samsung Galaxy J6 features a 720p Super AMOLED display, with an 18:5:9 aspect ratio dubbed as Samsung's ‘Infinity Display’. The J6 has a 5.6-inch panel, having around ~76.5% screen-to-body ratio and 294 ppi which was much similar to previous ones in the same line up. The J6's screen is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 3. [3]Crop factor is the ratio of the dimensions of a full frame camera's sensor (36 x 24 mm, which equals the frame size of a 35 mm film) and the dimensions of the image sensor of the device. The number shown is the ratio between the diagonals of a full frame sensor (43.3 mm) and the sensor in question. SD cards come in a range of storage capacities including SDHC (Secure Digital High Capacity) and SDXC (Secure Digital Extended Capacity). Designed to fit around users’ busy lives, the Galaxy J6 also comes with a 3,000 mAh battery. Whilst its powerful 1.6GHz Octa-Core processor means that the phone is able to carry out more advanced tasks, such as running high-resolution video, without draining the battery. The Galaxy J6 also comes with 3GB of RAM, 32GB of internal storage and a micro-SD slot, offering users true performance and flexibility. Information about the width, i.e. the horizontal side of the device when it is used in its standard orientation.

The instruction set architecture (ISA) is a set of commands used by the software to manage the CPU's work. Information about the set of instructions the processor can execute. Versions: SM-J610FN/DS (Europe); SM-J610G (LATAM, Australia, New Zealand); SM-J610G/DS (LATAM, Brazil, Chile, Philippines, Uruguay); SM-J610G/DS 64GB (Taiwan) Network A CPU core is the processor unit, which executes software instructions. Presently, besides single-core processors, there are dual-core, quad-core, hexa-core and so on multi-core processors. They increase the performance of the device allowing the execution of multiple instructions in parallel.The rear cameras of mobile devices use mainly a LED flash. It may arrive in a single, dual- or multi-light setup and in different arrangements. On the other hand, the 8MP front camera seems more capable. It’s color reproduction is accurate while allowing you to choose the level of beautification you want to apply. The latter option is vital to keep pictures from looking over processed. In May 2019, Samsung started rolling out its OTA software update for the Galaxy J6 to have the latest Android 9.0 (Pie) with One UI that also comes with Galaxy S10 phones. The update added features like night mode and a re-styled user interface. It has a similar hardware design and software features to its high-end counterpart, the Galaxy A6. [2] Overall, the phone's build and it's screen are the only redeeming qualities. An S-AMOLED display is definitely a boon, but if it so happens that the Exynos 7870 can't handle heavy tasks, then there's a lot less to enjoy on that display.
