Samsung Galaxy J6 Philippines Price PHP 13,990, Release Date, Full Specs

In the face of OPPO, Vivo, and Huawei's continuous efforts to dominate the midrange Android smartphone bracket, the country's #1 smartphone vendor - Samsung - also does its best to churn out enticing handset models in the said price echelon.

Quietly released in stores on Friday - June 2, 2018, the Samsung Galaxy J6 2018 is great option for budget-conscious consumers who love to stay connected on the go via social media apps, to snap selfies and groufies, and to watch online videos on a large display, anytime and anywhere.

Flaunting a svelte polycarbonate shell with metallic finish, the Galaxy J6 sports a large 5.6-inch HD+ SuperAMOLED display, which known for being brighter, more brilliant, and energy efficient than IPS displays with the same resolution.

By having a tall 18.5:9 aspect ratio, this screen allowed Samsung to keep the device's footprint relatively small despite having a big panel for enjoying photos, videos, and other visual content.

At the back, the handset has a 13 MegaPixel f/1.9 PDAF camera - which is not the best from Samsung but is nonetheless good enough for snapping clear and vibrant photos especially in well-lit conditions.

For Selfie-Loving Pinoys, Galaxy J6 2018 has an 8 MP f/1.9 front-facing snapper powered by Samsung's own Beauty Mode, which remains to be one of the best out there. Plus, it has a Soft LED flash allowing you to take your self-portraits even in settings where there's little ambient light.

If you love listening to music while you're on your commute or to relax during office breaks, you'd surely appreciate the pre-installed Dolby Atmos software that automatically enhances sound quality when listening to songs via headphones. Also, this smartphone's large 3,000 mAh Li-Ion battery pack ensures more than 75 hours of music playback, which is - needless to say - more enough time to keep you entertained.

Now, as for internal hardware, this phone runs its heavily customized Android 8.0 Oreo operating system with a 14nm Octa-Core 1.6 GHz Cortex-A53 and Mali-T830 MP1 GPU based Exynos 7870 Octa Processor, has 3GB of RAM, and comes with 32GB of internal storage that can easily be augmented using the dedicated microSD card slot.
