If you have picked up one of the latest smartphones from emporia like the SMART 6 and ME6 there is a cool case now on sale which is rather nice when it comes to cases it must be said.
With the standout strap on the back of the case you can be sure the case will not fall out of your hand or be swiped from it which is great and also giving you additional grip.
The corners have raised bumpers which is another bonus giving more protection on the gi, there is also a lip around the front meaning the device can be placed face down and the camera area on the back has a raised edge to keep the camera array in good order, inside has a nice finish too keeping the phone in good order all round.
The keys are tactile and work well and all ports accessible which makes for an overall great case to get and keep your shiny new emporia device in good order.
The emporia SMART.6 though does not look cheap nor feel cheap and it is their best built phone to date with a good weight to it too and at first glance when showing friends etc they asked what in the name of god is this one. So of course I explained what this phone is about and who it is for and let them play around with it and they could see the simplicity in using it without all the fuss and how easy it is to navigate through which was refreshing for them.
They liked the cover display and the 4 key button set up that lights up and I do too which is simply 4 shortcuts to access simple things like calls and camera and torch, you still have your big panel up top displaying other information in big clear numbers and letter just like you will find in the menus on the phone UI.
The camera array on the back is nicely set out too and not a cumbersome block you find on many of today’s phones and you have a heart labelled button there if you press and hold you can instantly call the emergency services which I accidently pressed on testing but can clarify it works.
You also have face unlock and fingerprint sensor on board here and these worked quite well however in darker environments the face unlock is less reliable but this can be the same on many traditional smartphones.

We have a decent camera and video performance too which for the target market of this device they will be happy with you can see the samples in the video review below, I did have to review this device with and older person in mind but did test other apps such as social media and emails as I tend to find now the older population using smart phones but would not use their full capabilities and would have some knowledge of how they work.
Technically, the emporia E6 plays in the same league as the Samsung A series or Apple refurbished. Latest 5G technology, top camera and Camera Pro, NFC, fingerprint sensor, voice input. The emporia E6 is a product that was created in collaboration directly with the target group. In countries such as the Federal Republic of Germany, Great Britain, Italy and France there were workshops in which the participants defined their demands and wishes for the smartphone of the future. The result: “A smartphone as it should be”.
Overall a solid phone that does more than one might think, and a huge upgrade to the emporia smart 4 having tested in two capacities it has worked well with no issues even doing some video editing on the device itself and for my social media it did not hang up shut down or anything like other smartphones have done especially with video editing apps on board, call quality is fine too and overall a simple phone to use without all the convoluted mess you find today on smartphones.
