The formalities were done and so our time so time to check the might-be one of the price-friendly smartphones of Samsung (if to compare to Galaxy A6+ with the same SoC)
The camera samples"
Here is the Samsung Galaxy J8. Though I never had a chance yet to see the A6+ with a better FHD+ Super AMOLED display, this one in HD+ Super AMOLED is not bad at all with that Samsung front display that we seen in the J6
Galaxy J8 went on a matte finish on their non-removable back covering but it is still quite simple and classy at the same time. I hope that small, physical fingerprint sensor will still be great. One thing to give a thumbs up to this, no camera bump
Ignore the top view as you will gonna get the micro USB, speaker and 3.5 mm audio jack at the bottom, dual SIM + dedicated micro SD slot at the left and power/unlock button + volume rocker at the right section
As expected, the same Samsung Experience UI that we seen recently from the Galaxy J6 smartphone. but definitely a bit better in rolling those apps as they put in a battery-efficient SD 450 prcoessor inside
No jampacked pro mode on this device but there some camera features that you will gonna like wide selfie and selfie focus at the front camera and Samsung usual auto-based rear camera features. Good to know that both cameras have f/1.9 aperture. Both front and main camera shots in auto can do fast image processing time but there is a lil patience needed once you go in selfie focus which is their own selfie with bokeh feature. In my series of trails, you need a bit more than 2 seconds for image processing after you push that shutter button pljs it is best for you to do that in an arm's length. Camera wise, it is quite good in our but low-light scenario in the event venue
