Verdict
The Samsung Galaxy J8 Plus is a decent smartphone with a
slightly above-budget price tag. The power-efficient AMOLED display is
appreciable, the cameras do a good job too at snapping pictures and decent
selfies, the configurations are also adequate for a largely clutter-free daily
experience. However, for the price the chipset included is felt kind of
outdated. On the other hand, the large enough battery will power this device
throughout the day and quick charging can juice it up relatively quickly.
Overall, from the point of view of performance and specifications, this is
definitely a decent smartphone, but compared to the competition in this price
range, this device is a bit on the expensive side for what it's worth.
A decent smartphone
Display and Camera:
The Samsung Galaxy J8 Plus features a 6-inch qHD power
efficient Super AMOLED display with a screen resolution of 720 by 1,480 pixels
which along with a 274 PPI pixel density deliver a pleasant visual experience
with great contrast. On the camera department, this phone flashes two 16MP plus
5MP primary cameras with flash, which deliver some pretty decent shots; the front
camera is 8MP and snaps good selfies.
Storage and Configuration:
The Samsung Galaxy J8 Plus carries a decent 64GB internal
storage and it can be expanded up to 256GB which is appreciated. This device is
powered by the efficient Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 octa-core chipset with Cortex
a53 processors inside, which can achieve up to 1.8GHz of speed. The CPU coupled
with the Adreno 506 GPU and 4GB of RAM can deliver pretty great performance for
daily tasks as well as resourceful apps and games. The phone also comes with a
rear-mounted fingerprint scanner for added security.
Battery and Connectivity:
Battery-wise, the Samsung Galaxy J8 Plus stocks a decent
3,500 mAh Li-on battery which should last a day with normal usage, it supports
Qualcomm Quick Charge too which is welcome. It is a 4G Volte compatible device
with dual nano-sim slots, thus, all networks should work just fine on this
device. Additional connectivity features included are WIFI, Bluetooth 5, A-GPS
and Glonass assisted location support etc. On the ports department, this phone
carries a USB Type-C port for charging and mass storage as well as a 3.5 mm
audio jack for your musical needs.
