Although bearing the name 'plus' behind its name, it does not mean that Samsung enhances all hardware performance. On the contrary, the Galaxy J6 + is equipped with a processor with relatively lower specifications. If the Galaxy J6 has an Exynos 7870 octa-core processor with GPU Mali T830MP3, the Galaxy J6 + uses a quad-core Snapdragon 425 processor with an Adreno 308 GPU. However there are some improvements.

This means that the dimensions are still proportional in the grip of the hand. The red bandage on the back is still covered with sleek glass which makes it a mirror. Behind the glass, vague grid dots are seen that make it more exotic. If you don't pay close attention, the 'Samsung' writing behind the glass is even invisible.

At the front view, the front camera is to the left of the speaker hole. While the flash LED is on the right. On the right side there is a power button that integrates with the fingerprint sensor. As a result of this unification, the buttons are made flat which are sometimes difficult to use because they are less prominent. But, it's okay if you get used to it. Above the power button there is a speaker hole that is also unusual. This large hole is almost like a power port / charging hole. On the lower side there is a charging / data port with a mic hole and a 3.5mm audio port on the right.

On the left side, the volume button is placed slightly upwards. The volume up and volume down buttons are made somewhat apart or there is a distance. Somewhat down, the SIM 1 card tray is separated from the SIM2 card tray. Instead the SIM2 card tray is aligned (in a unified slot) with an external memory card slot. A shiny red color can sometimes make it difficult to see the position of the opening pin opening of the tray.
