All handsets above have a front-facing 8 MP camera, as well as a microSD slot. Their connectivity features include 4G LTE, WiFi, Bluetooth 4.1, GPS, dual-SIM. At last, the new K6 handsets also come with Dolby Atmos and a fingerprint reader.

The K6 series handsets will launch with Android Marshmallow on board, and there is no official information on a Nougat update yet. In Europe, the prices will be between $167 USD and $257 USD.
