15 best 6 inch smartphones from AliExpress

When choosing a smartphone, buyers often pay attention to the screen, since this is the part that is the “face” of the mobile device.The diagonal of the screen is extremely important, because the larger it is, the more convenient it is to watch videos, pictures or read books and communicate with friends and acquaintances. 6-inch models are an intermediate link between tablets and smartphones, since 7-inch models are already the most compact tablets.

We have selected for you the top best 6-inch smartphones based on:

• technical specifications;
• customer reviews;
• opinion of authoritative channels;
• value for money.

For convenience, the rating is divided into three price categories, from the most budget options, which include smartphones, whose cost does not exceed 11 thousand rubles, to top models that have practically no upper price bracket. In each section, you will choose the best option for yourself, since only the best smartphones are included here, united by one quality - a 6-inch screen.

The best 6-inch smartphones from Aliexpress in the budget segment

You don't have to expect much from a budget smartphone. They don't have the highest stats. The amount of RAM rarely exceeds 2 gigabytes. Internal memory is also limited. The operating system will most likely be the previous generation. Their main advantage is the price. In addition, such smartphones cope with their tasks quite well, if they are not overloaded with a bunch of applications, and especially games. Surfing the Internet, watching videos and photos, listening to music. These features are also available for budget models.

5 Oukitel C21pro

The glory of the most popular smartphone in the world, the iPhone 11, haunted the Chinese, and they created the same in appearance, but many times cheaper. The result was a gadget with a 6-inch screen, an Apple-style camera unit, an eight-core processor and Android 11 OS on board. Cameras are the pride of this gadget. The main unit contains modules from Sony with a resolution of 21+ 2+ 0.2 MP. There is a macro lens and a proximity sensor. Photos are of good quality.

With video, not everything is so rosy. This model does not have normal stabilization, so you have to shoot from a tripod or admire the jumping picture. And back to the good. Batteries with a capacity of 4000mah are enough for daylight hours. And the main advantage is the cost. On Aliexpress, you can buy such a smartphone even for $ 100, the main thing is to monitor the price and wait for promotions and discounts.

4 Blackview A80 Pro4/64

A smartphone designed for maximum convenience - this is how the manufacturer positions its offspring. What do users of the Aliexpress website get for a small amount? This is a typical inexpensive device with an eight-core Helio P23 processor on board, 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of internal memory. A bright screen with a diagonal of 6 inches and a good oleophobic coating is installed. The battery with a capacity of 4680 mAh will also please. With such data, the smartphone is able to move other state employees from their pedestals.

And there is also a very interesting block of cameras - there are four of them on the back cover. Looks good, functionally good, but nothing special. In general, the design of the gadget is very successful, it does not look cheap. The operating system pleases with the absence of errors with the translation. There is nothing superfluous in the firmware.It also has dual-band Wi-Fi. The set of sensors, of course, is minimal. But the main drawback is the lack of an NFC module. And there is also a suspicion that the battery capacity is less than stated.

3 Blackview A60

The battery is one of the main problems of almost all smartphones. In operation mode or while surfing the Internet, the battery runs out extremely quickly, so many buyers pay attention to its capacity in the first place. If you are in this category and are looking for a budget smartphone with a 6-inch screen, be sure to check out this option. A lithium battery with a capacity of 4080 mAh is installed here. This is the best feature, since, in fact, there is nothing more to boast of a smartphone.

A 4-core processor with a clock speed of only 1.3 gigahertz is installed on board. Overloading it with a bunch of applications is clearly not worth it. Yes, and RAM introduces its limitations, since its size is one gigabyte. The version of the Android 6.1 operating system, that is, is already outdated, and for obvious reasons it will not be updated. But there are two cameras at once, 18 and 5 megapixels. Of course, this does not mean their high quality, but someone needs this parameter when choosing.

2 Cubot King Kong 5 Pro

Cubot contributed to the emergence of secure smartphones on the Aliexpress website. This segment of the market is not replenished very actively, but there is a demand for such products. Therefore, the novelty from Cubot immediately aroused interest.Users received an inexpensive device (especially if you get discounts) with serious stuffing, a good set of cameras and an 8000 mAh battery. The battery will last about a day on a single charge. And all this in a case that is not afraid of falls and immersion in water by half a meter.

The screen with a diagonal of 6 inches is quite bright. The main camera from Sony has a resolution of 48 megapixels. It shoots well, the video quality is also on top. All scanners and sensors work flawlessly, there is an NFC module. And there is something unusual for state employees - a light indicator at the top of the screen. Of course, the protected polycarbonate case influenced the dimensions of the smartphone. It has become larger and heavier - a gadget about 2 cm thick cannot be carried in your pocket.

1 Oukitel C18 Pro

Recently, not the most famous Chinese brand OUKITEL began to successfully compete with top smartphone manufacturers, and even outperform them in some characteristics. For example, the C18 Pro model has the best price compared to competitors. Not the lowest, but considering the parameters it is quite acceptable.

The smartphone runs on the Android 9th generation operating system. Its performance provides 8-core processor with a clock speed of 2.5 gigahertz and 2 gigabytes of RAM. The built-in 64 GB module will allow you to download a lot of applications and files, and if necessary, it can be expanded using a flash drive with a maximum capacity of up to 128 gigs. There are also the most modern “bells and whistles”, such as a fingerprint scanner and the face recognition function of the owner. Fans of taking photos and videos will be pleased with 4 main cameras with a resolution of 16, 8, 5 and 2 megapixels, respectively, plus an 8-megapixel front camera. Simply the best 6" smartphone for the price.

The best 6-inch smartphones from AliExpress in the middle segment

The middle price segment is the most flexible concept. Each buyer defines his own boundaries. We decided to include in this category smartphones with a screen diagonal of 6 inches, whose price is not higher than 20 thousand and not less than 10 thousand. rubles. This includes not only new and little-known manufacturing companies presented on AliExpress, but also top brands that produce the best smartphones and use the most advanced technologies.

5 Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 Pro

Before us is the top novelty of 2020. The Chinese brand Xiaomi once again decided to show that it produces the best smartphones with the most advanced technologies and content. However, considering the characteristics of this model, you come to the conclusion that there is nothing revolutionary in the novelty. Yes, some parameters have expanded, but very little differs from the previous version of Note 9 Pro.

An 8-core processor clocked at 2.7 GHz has been used before. As well as 6 gigabytes of RAM. 64 gigabytes on the built-in module is also not a novelty. The 6-inch screen with Gorilla Glass technology can be called the best, but definitely not new. The design has changed a little and, of course, the price has increased. Yes, the smartphone can be safely called the best and most advanced, but, apparently, Xiaomi has taken the path of minor updates, for which this model does not receive the most honorable place in our rating, but it remains relevant in 2021.

4 Poco M3 Pro

The mid-budget novelty from Poco has a modern design and very decent functionality. At the same time, the smartphone costs a little more than $ 200. For this price, the user gets a smart device with an excellent battery. The performance of the smartphone allows you to play games and quickly install heavy applications. And what's nice, the phone does not overheat. It has an IPS display with a diagonal of just over 6 inches and support for a refresh rate of 90 Hz. There are some remarks about the brightness of the screen - in the bright sun, of course, you can use a smartphone, but it's not very convenient.

The main camera has better detail, good color reproduction and saturation. But it's all about shooting in good light. In night mode, the quality drops, but the picture looks good. Combined card slot - you can use either 2 SIM cards or a memory card with a SIM card. This model has disadvantages, but for this money, it is difficult to find an alternative to it.

3 Doogee S88 Pro

Smartphones from DOOGEE tend to stand out from the competition with better-capacity batteries. This model also boasts a 10,000 mAh battery. The manufacturer promises that, regardless of the mode of use, it is unrealistic to discharge it in a day. And this is true, usually you have to charge the battery every three days. It is located in a protected case. Protection is good, but the phone turned out to be bulky - a real brick.

The 6-inch display has a good viewing angle, normal color temperature and, unfortunately, rather large bezels. The device runs on Android 10 – the system is still quite relevant this year. The cameras here are mediocre - they perform their function, but the pictures are not particularly pleasing to the eye. This model is intended for those who care about the battery and the security of the case, and who are ready to ignore the decent weight and low quality of photographs.

2 Meizu 16

The Aliexpress site hosts not only little-known Chinese brands, but also top manufacturers, which, of course, include Meiza. Before us is the 16 model of the company, and this is the best smartphone with a screen diagonal of 6 inches in its price category. Here are the top specifications: 8-core processor, 6 gigabytes of RAM, 128 gigabytes on the built-in module and support for 4G data transfer technology.

To ensure security, the smartphone uses a fingerprint scanner and the face recognition function of the owner. There is also a super-bright Amoled display, used at one time by Samsung.Even the front camera is 20 megapixels, not to mention the block of four cameras on the back. The only parameter that cannot be called the best is the battery capacity of 3000 mAh, which is very small with such characteristics. This was the reason to give the smartphone only the second place in our ranking.

1 Realme Narzo 30 5G

The gadget is positioned on Aliexpress as a productive smartphone with a long-lasting battery and a nice price. Like most models of the Realme brand, the device is aimed at a young audience. This smartphone is positioned as a gaming one. And he really copes even with heavy games, and some pull at high settings. The screen diagonal is slightly more than 6 inches. But thanks to the aspect ratio of 20:9, the case is comfortable to hold in your hand.

The display is very good for this price category - an IPS matrix with Full HD resolution and a frequency of up to 90 Hz. The amount of memory is 4/128 GB, the battery lasts for a day of intensive work. The cameras give a nice picture. It is a reliable and very nimble workhorse. Of the minuses - only the lack of stereo sound. Under this brand, AliExpress also sells a cheaper model Narzo 30 without the prefix "5G". It differs not only in communication protocols, but also in a more modest filling.

The best TOP 6 inch smartphones from Aliexpress

Top smartphones are a marvel of engineering. They contain the most modern and advanced technologies. Only the best materials are used and only with the highest build quality. With such a phone, you will feel at the peak of modern fashion, but you will have to pay a considerable amount.Some models that are also included in our rating cost more than 70 thousand rubles, and if you look at their content, it becomes clear that we pay part of the amount exclusively for the brand name and its logo. There are cheaper models, but in any case, the price tag will be higher than 20 thousand, at least, these are the criteria we used when selecting goods from Aliexpress in our rating.

5 Vivo IQOO 3

Installing a powerful high-capacity battery on a smartphone is extremely problematic. There is simply no place for him here, and users will probably not appreciate the increase in weight. Vivo decided to take a different path by equipping its model with a fast charging function. From a completely discharged battery, it raises the charge to 100% within an hour. An excellent result, besides, the battery capacity is more than 4000 mAh, which is not so small by modern standards.

Otherwise, it is quite an ordinary smartphone for its price category. Works on the latest version of Android, whose performance is supported by an 8-core processor and 6 gigabytes of RAM. The RAM parameter is not the best, but quite acceptable. There are all the necessary security scanners and even support for 5G technology. Also, the smartphone will please with a protected screen with a diagonal of 6 inches. The reservation, judging by the reviews on Aliexpress, perfectly withstands even significant loads, but it is not clear whether it is worth paying that kind of money for it.

4 Samsung Galaxy S21 256

The most convenient and most compact smartphone in the new Samsung line.It feels better than other models of the S-series in the hand, because the weight of the device is only 172 g, and the dimensions are 51.7 × 71.2 × 7.9 mm. For a small palm - what you need. In addition, the manufacturer uses up-to-date technologies and modern hardware. But the main thing that Samsung can be proud of is the cameras. And here they are the best in every way. The pictures are obtained in such a way that not every DSLR, especially in crooked hands, provides such quality.

And you can admire all this while viewing photos and videos on an excellent screen with a diagonal of just over 6 inches, with a refresh rate of 120 Hz. The designers have also worked on the appearance of the smartphone - this can be seen from the original design of the camera block and other details. But the manufacturer began to save on packaging - there are no headphones and a charger. And based on reviews from buyers of the Aliexpress website, the packaging also raises questions. And this at such an impressive price tag!

3 OnePlus 8 Pro

5G networks have not yet reached ubiquity, but it is not far off and soon we will all be able to enjoy their opportunities. Of course, not all smartphones can provide support for their work. Oneplus 8 Pro has such support, and this is not its only advantage.

The top-end 8-core Snapdragon 865 processor is on board. Not a novelty, but still one of the best options that provide excellent performance even with the maximum workload of the device. Help him in this 8 gigs of RAM and 128 gigs of built-in module. It’s not even worth talking about fingerprint and face scanners, much cheaper smartphones have such functions. Fans of shooting will also be satisfied, for whom there are 4 high-definition cameras at once.And for those who like to watch videos on their smartphone, the manufacturer has installed a 6-inch high-definition screen with AMOLED technology. In general, a great smartphone, but at a considerable cost.

2 Ulefone Armor 9

An unusual smartphone with a thermal camera and other useful features. The flagship model Armor is made in a rugged case and has a connector for connecting an endoscope, which is a camera in the form of a long tube. This stray is connected through a special application and can work underwater. The creators of the model recommend using an endoscope for repairing pipes and inspecting hard-to-reach places. On the body there are 4 cameras and as many as 4 flashes. It makes a good flashlight!

As the tests show, everything is in order with the speed. Here is the time-tested chipset - Helio P90. This choice is justified, there are no unpleasant surprises. The amount of memory is enough for most users - 8/128 GB. But as for a flagship, I would like 258 GB. The thermal imager works without failures, there is a function of imposing a picture on ordinary pictures. The tool works only through the application.

1 Nubia

The Chinese brand Nubia can hardly be called the most popular even on Aliexpress. The company is relatively young and only gaining momentum, but has already managed to throw a flagship model on the market, which fell into our rating immediately into the top category. The price is simply stunning, and we get the following parameters for this money: an 8-core Snapdragon 865 with a core frequency of 3 GHz. Impressive, but far from new.8 gigabytes of RAM. Not a bad result, but also not the limit. Amoled screen with a diagonal of 6 inches has long been used by Samsung and other brands. 128 gigs of built-in memory.

Summing up, we conclude that the technical characteristics of the smartphone are definitely top-end, but it is very difficult to say whether they are worth the money. This model has got a place of honor in the rating due to simply a huge number of positive reviews. Despite the high price tag, the model has many buyers and admirers who praise Nubia, calling it the best in all respects. Well, we will not argue with real users and will give the smartphone the first place in its category.
