The GM 6 bears a 13-megapixel rear autofocus camera with dual-LED flash, and on the front, sports a 8-megapixel camera with selfie flash. As for storage, the smartphone comes with 32GB of inbuilt storage that is expandable via microSD card (up to 128GB).

Connectivity options on the General Mobile GM 6 include 4G LTE + 4.5G, Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth v4.2, GPS/ A-GPS, and a Micro-USB port.
