Samsung had launched the Galaxy J6, Galaxy J8, Galaxy A6 and Galaxy A6+ in May. These smartphones feature Infinity Display design that offers larger screen space. The Galaxy On6 that was introduced recently is available for purchase in India exclusively through online channels. The On6 is nothing but the rebranded version of J6. According to XDA Developers, the Galaxy J6+ is an upcoming phone from the company. It is speculated that the same phone may debut as On6+ in India.

The publication claims that its recognized contributors have come across firmware files for a Samsung device that is codenamed as “j6plte.” This handset is expected to debut as Galaxy J6 Plus LTE and it will be heading to CIS (Commonwealth of Independent States) nations and Serbia. Since Samsung follows a pattern of rebranding its J-series smartphones as On-series phones, it is likely that the J6+ may debut as On6+.

The Galaxy J6+ will be borrowing some of its specs from the Samsung Galaxy J6 phone. Through the leaked firmware files, it has been revealed that the Galaxy J6+ will be arriving with a Super AMOLED screen of 5.6 inches. It will carry support for 18.5:9 aspect ratio and HD+ resolution of 1480 x 720 pixels.

It is expected to feature a microSD card and it will be preinstalled with Android Oreo. Some of the other features of the Galaxy J6+ that have surfaced through its leaked firmware files include TFA9896 audio amp, fingerprint reader and NFC. It is likely to arrive with 4,350mAh battery.

After launching Galaxy J8 in India, Samsung has launched a new mid-range smartphone in the country under its online-only ‘On’ series — Samsung Galaxy On6. The smartphone comes in two color options — Blue and Black and will be available for purchase through Flipkart and Samsung Shop Online, for a price of Rs. 14,490 (roughly converts to $218) in the first sale.

After the first sale of the Galaxy On6, the pricing of the smartphone will increase to Rs. 15,490, which roughly converts to $225. The first sale for the smartphone will take place on July 5th, Thursday. As a part of launch offers, users can get a complete mobile protection plan at just Rs. 49.

The smartphone comes with a 56-inch HD+ Super AMOLED Infinity Display with 2.5D curved glass, 1480 x 720 pixels screen resolution, 18.5:9 aspect ratio and pixel density of 293 PPI. Under the hood, the device is powered by Samsung’s own Exynos 7870 octa-core processor clocked at 1.6GHz, along with Mali T830 GPU. It’s disappointing to see that Samsung is still using the outdated Exynos 7870 chipset, which was launched in 2016.

The device packs 4GB RAM and 64GB of internal storage along with support for microSD card for expanding the phone’s storage capacity up to 256GB. In the camera department, the phone features a 13-megapixel rear camera with LED flash and an 8-megapixel front-facing camera, which also comes equipped with an LED flash.

For added security, the phone comes with a fingerprint sensor, placed on the back panel. Connectivity options on the device include 4G VoLTE, Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.2 LE, and GPS. The device is running Android 8.0 Oreo operating system out of the box and is powered by a 3,000mAh battery, which should be enough to provide power for a full day usage.

At this price point, the Samsung Galaxy On6 will be competing against the likes of Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro, ASUS Zenfone Max Pro M1, and Oppo’s Realme 1. It seems difficult for Samsung to compete with these devices as all three of them comes with better specifications than the Galaxy On6.
