Design and Display
Due to the rugged nature, dust resistance, and waterproof feature of the Homtom Zoji Z6, the design is somewhat unconventional. It is made of a mix of both polycarbonate and metallic material, thus giving the very durable characteristics which the smartphone is built for. There are thick flaps placed over the three opening of the phone which are the charging port, audio jack and sim tray. Without the flaps in place the device is very much prone to water and dust.
There is an HD display which is not so bad for a rugged cheap smartphone like the Homtom Zoji Z6. It boast of a 4.7-inches 1280 x 720 pixel resolution IPS display with a pixel density of 312 ppi. The screen is however, not responsive when submerged under water which is a downside, but definitely one of the perks of a budget smartphone.
Camera and Battery
In a way the focus of this smartphone is being a rugged device other than anything else, so every other thing including the camera is kept on a minimum. The Homtom Zoji Z6 has a rear camera of 5MP and a selfie camera of 2MP, this is also influenced by the price segment it is in.
The Homtom Zoji Z6 comes with a mid range Li-polymer battery with a capacity of 3000 mAh which also happens to be non removable. This is quite enough for a smartphone of this magnitude and should be able to keep the phone on through out the day on a light usage.
