Samsung Galaxy On6 Launched In India: From Infinity Display To An Affordable Price Tag

Samsung has launched its new offering in the ‘On Series’ in India, dubbed as the Samsung Galaxy On6 which is yet another affordable device from the company but brings many of the premium features with itself. The Samsung Galaxy On6 sports an Infinity Display which despite offering more real estate, an increase of almost 15 per cent, the overall size of the smartphone remains the same as that of its predecessor.

For the unknown, Samsung has been launching back-to-back smartphones in the budget segment and has equipped all of them with an Infinity Display, just like the Samsung Galaxy On6. Some of the examples being the Samsung Galaxy J6, Galaxy J6 Plus, and the Galaxy J8. On the other hand, with the Samsung Galaxy On6, the South Korean multinational might be looking to increase its market share in India as Xiaomi has been leading the race by having the biggest chunk of the market share in India in the smartphone industry.

The Samsung Galaxy On6 seems to be designed in order to compete with other budget as well as mid-tier offerings from manufacturers such as Xiaomi, Honor, and Asus, coupled with features which have never been seen before in Samsung’s affordable line-up. Apart from the proprietary Infinity display as well as the latest Android Oreo software, the phone Samsung Galaxy On6 also comes with a Chat-over-Video feature which is designed in India and for India, as per the company’s claims.

While the Samsung Galaxy On6 is the second most affordable smartphone from Samsung, after the Galaxy J6, which comes with an Infinity display, it also brings Samsung’s facial recognition technology to the masses. That being said, Samsung has been launching some of the greatest India-specific features with its affordable smartphone and the Samsung Galaxy On6 is no exception. As mentioned above, it comes with a Chat-over-Video feature that lets users chat on WhatsApp, SMS and play a video or a game at the same time. This means users won’t need to shut down a video just because they have to access and respond to their WhatsApp messages.

There is a little bit of the AI-flavour in the camera software as well as the front camera comes with features such as selfie focus for software-assisted portrait mode as well as a beautification mode. The rear camera, on the other hand, supports features such as live stickers and a wide angle lens for group selfies.
