There’s also a micro-USB port at the bottom of the device and of course the buttons: power on the right and volume on the left. In addition to that, there is also a fingerprint reader, located on the back of the phone, slightly below the camera.

Since nowadays camera is an essential part of every smartphone, let’s take a quick look at the camera specifications of Samsung Galaxy J6. The new J-model of the Samsung family has rather a performant camera, considering the fact that it is supposed to be a budget-friendly phone.
