Packaging and appearance

The smartphone is packed in a simple box made of white cardboard. The manufacturer did not particularly wise of its design: the top is a smartphone, and under it in separate compartments additional accessories.

The kit includes a charger, connecting cable, silicone case, spare film to protect the screen and documentation. Complete bag has special thickening of the corners, which should ensure the security of your phone even when you fall from a low height. However, slim body Vernee M6 looks not so spectacular.

The smartphone has a completely metal body with thin layers for the antenna on the back cover. Vernee M6 looks presentable, but only as long as you do not take it in hand. The back cover is not only good collects fingerprints, but did not want to rub them. Therefore we advise you after the first acquaintance with the phone well wipe it with a cloth and hidden in a silicone case.

controls are traditional: on the right side - power button and rocker volumeOn the left - a tray for the SIM card and microSD. Top maker posted a connector for headphones and opening an additional microphone.

On the bottom was enough room for external speaker grilles, connector for charging and data exchangeAs well as the spoken microphone.

In general, the assembly Vernee M6 can put a good estimate. All parts fit tightly, no squeaks or rattles. But appearance does not cause much excitement. This smartphone is easy to confuse with a dozen other phones - any memorable parts, alas.

Display and Audio

In Vernee M6 smartphone mounted display diagonal of 5.7 inches and a resolution of 1440 × 720 pixels. pixel density is 282 dpi, which in 2018 is somewhat unconvincing. However, do not rush to conclusions.

If you put next to a smartphone with a higher resolution display, you will not notice the difference immediately. Under normal operating conditions, the picture on the screen Vernee M6 does not cause any discomfort. Contrast is good, juicy colors, color balance billed correctly.

But it was not without a spoon of tar. For some strange reason for us not all applications work correctly with the extended display Vernee M6. Some as it should be run in full screen, but the other, and they pretty much leave the top and bottom black bars. It looks awful. Let's hope that this is a software problem that will be fixed in an update.

Sound external speaker is surprisingly good. He is loud, there are present high frequency and sometimes even appear low. For voice ringtones it is well suited. Well, if you plan to listen to music, then Get a good pair of headphones. They will play more Vernee M6 twice better.

Performance

Performance is not the strongest feature of this smartphone. Chipset MediaTek MT6750C was released two years ago and then it was set even in middle-class devices. But today its performance is only good for a budget device.

This means that Vernee M6 confidently handles all simple tasks: calls, conversations in messengers, Display photos and videos, music playback. However demanding the program can be started with a certain delay, and the responsiveness of the operating system with the simultaneous use of several heavy programs leaves much to be desired.

As for the most popular mobile games of last generation, that in this matter Vernee M6 owners are out of luck. Even on the lowest setting comfortable to play in the battle royal or participate in tank battles will not work. There are only puzzles and puzzles, which smartphone gets along famously.

autonomy

Claimed Vernee M6 battery capacity is 3000 mAh. The program PCMark Work 2.0 Battery Test, which simulates the performance of a typical user tasks (surfing, Watching videos, editing photos, working with documents) with constantly active screen, the smartphone lasted 8:00 24 minutes.

This result tells us that the normal use of the smart phone will live on into the night. But if you load it resource-intensive tasks, then look for the socket have been in the afternoon.

Camera

The official site Vernee larger font indicates that the resolution of the main chamber is 16 M, and the front - 13 Mn. But in the neighboring section, finely written the actual characteristics of 13 and 8 megapixels. We can only guess that it is - a simple mistake or a regular sell?

The vast majority of Chinese manufacturers of the second-tier installs additional sensors are now for the main and the front camera, which allegedly helps in creating expressive shots with a blurred background. In fact, these sensors are almost always fake web and do not participate in the shooting. Well, that was the Vernee not follow this fashion, applying in the single chamber device.

It works main camera Vernee M6 at the level of other devices in its price category. If you shoot well-lit objects, you can not submit to snapshots virtually no complaints. Good contrast, correct color, sufficient detail and lack of soap will delight even the most demanding photographers.

If you decide to fix the object in motion, and even at night or in dim artificial light, you get blurred images with a lot of digital noise and a strange color.

Software

The operating system is Android 7.0. For your phone, released in 2018, it seems unacceptable. The company seems to be aware of this, so the home page of the device indicates «VOS, based on Android 8.1». Do not believe it: maybe soon the operating system and will receive the update, but for now it Nougat.

Android source image received minimal changes. Vernee programmers have added only a few additional options to hide the icons in the status bar, mute the call coup device, make screenshots svayp three fingers. In general, anything interesting.

During the time spent in our smartphone no update was not released software. Let's hope that all programmers forces are now thrown on the creation of the firmware based on Android 8.1.

results

In the introduction, we noted that almost all the old models Vernee possessed a strong personality that sets them apart from the competition. However, the main feature of the M6 ​​- is the complete lack of any features.

Before us is a completely standard smartphone that does not have any distinguishing features, which would allow to distinguish it from a string of Chinese devices. Average for its price performance, screen design, the standard screen, the average autonomy, mediocre sound and Android is not the latest version. In general, a workhorse.

However, if you do not pursue external effects, you can give a chance Vernee M6. Smartphone though does not cause the wah effect, but inexpensive and yet cope with basic tasks.

At the time of this writing, the price of the smartphone is Vernee M6 8627 rubles.

The author expresses his gratitude to the company Vernee for providing the test device.
