Samsung Galaxy J8 - User Reviews

  • is this really micro usb? I saw some 2nd hand units selling with pictures and I saw usb type-C charging port. confusing.

  • Galaxy J8 will get Android 10 according to samsung android 10 update roadmap

  • Worst of money, Always get hanged And it's mic get frequently complaint

  • The hardware quality of display in this device is amazing!!!!!!very durable

  • Yes mine freezes at times and takes a while to come back . i though it was just me .

  • The lower quarter of the screen doesn't seem to respond at all at times. I first thought it was coz of my fingers or something like that, but the problem persists. Anyone else facing something similar? Also, the GPS automatically turns on when charge comes down to 5% and the phone discharges rapidly to 0, like in the matter of seconds. Strange .....

  • If you guys are proud or problem of phone please specify the RAM 4/3 GB then we can understand the problem

  • No

  • Galaxy J8 is an excellent phone from Samsung-the tech giant. Excellent camera and battery performance... It doesn't lag at all. Playing Pub G in medium graphics is fine as it has only Snapdragon 450. Display is really superb... Anyway in my opinion its a value for money device...

  • Never give a thought of buying this phone, samsung is cheating to their customers by providing low feature phone to high prices hate samsung for life👨‍🔧

  • u picked a copy man

  • I was using Samsung J7-16 from the past 2 years which was best phone but had low storage memory and now got new J8 64/4 , in my opinion this is the best phone with such a long battery timing, great camera results, super display. I didn't update it yet and using android 8 version. I am in love with this phone so you people also go and get it with no regrets.

  • I was using Samsung J7-16 from the past 2 years and now got new J8 64/4 , in my opinion this is the best phone with such a long battery timing, great camera results, super display. I didn't update it yet and using android 8 version.

  • I have the same problem but I sent it to the samsung service center and the problem have fix. It is a software problem the cause is updating the OS to Oreo to Pie with poor wifi or data signal. The OS is not in full version.

  • How To get notifications from all the applications after updating to android version9 for Galaxy J8 32GB. I can't get notifications.

  • Dial *#0*# and check Vibrator. Then Switch off your phone for 5 mints. After switch on and check.

  • Vibration is not working how to fix

  • Please 3x do not consider this phone if u want to use Android 9.0. It has lags if not factory reset after update. Very laggy. You are better of buying a 2016 moto e3 just because it is faster. Switching to A20

  • Please can anyone tell if the pie android update is recommended for j8? Does it cause any hangs to the phone?

  • I like this phone make me feel so good oh yeah so good oh yeah

  • Your info is wrong bec J8 has 64Gb and 32Gb Internal

  • Good phone but its going to hang many times in a day iin phoe memory is 15GB free thne also going hang......networrking is not good....camera showing darkness..

  • If you like big screens, go for it, but if you like small screens i suggest the smaller J6 or two very old but versatile flagships, either the iPhone 6 or SE

  • yes,even i am facing the same issue

  • Mine the mouth piece is already dead and it been 8 months

  • I enjoy its gorgeous oled display (HD resolution is enough for me with a lower power consumption), build quality, large camera apperture, decent battery capacity coupled by a battery friendly cpu/gpu. Its good for day to day task and media playback. Not recommended for high graphics games though. I suggest setting 'Power Mode' to 'optimized' if stuttering bothers you. Lack of others sensors isnt a deal breaker for me, and with its discounted/reduced price this 2019, i wont be asking for more except for software updates.

  • Worst segment of J series..I am very disappointed that the global mobile giant has developed the worst kind of J8 series smart phones..It has not been a year since i purchased this smart phone and it is already giving me a heck of problems like freezing for a long time and when tried to restart, the phone shut down and have to wait for two days to restart again..i have wasted my hard earned money on this stupid phone.

  • good phone with good graphic

  • Check your camera settings and put it to 16mp smartass

  • Just updated to android pie. Camera application is failing to start up. Meaning both cameras and flashlight are no longer functional

  • Good specs and design at decent price...

  • Since the new update for Pie my phone is not that responsive anymore its hard touch and the camera is not that clear anymore... I hope Samsung will provide a new update for the hard touch and the camera...

  • bro check camera setting..........inside camera app

  • i updated recently everything is fine and it even improved display,camera,touch quality.........if possible try hard reset bro......or try to install it again because something would have went wrong........

  • you may for it bro. pros:large infinity screen.processor may be low but even it can support huge games and huge graphics with out lag,awesome touch response, latest pie update is good,camera ultimate no issues,display less ppi density but i hope no need of full hd here it is the best in it standard,sound quality excellent with dolby. cons: voice is too loud in full volume it is audible outside(u can reduce),i dont find much cons i feel better with it.....but choice is yours ur money ur decision.....

  • you may for it bro. pros:large infinity screen.processor may be low but even it can support huge games and huge graphics with out lag,awesome touch response, latest pie update is good,camera ultimate no issues,display less ppi densit

  • yup, bro i too dropped many times facing screen still gng good without a crack.hope it survives longer........

  • Am thinking of to buy Samsung galaxy J8 but am really scared due to the comment's have read. I really don't want to make a mistake in my choice of choosing this phone cause, this is actually my first time to use a Samsung phone.

  • After update i have lost my camera quality.Camera is looking like 5 MP. Very worst camera quality after that update.Guys please don't do this upgrade.

  • J8 3gb 32gb will get pie update or not?

  • nice phone

  • I have bought this six months back, initially it was okay, it is real pathetic .First time using Samsung .almost every time will give the message system UI not responding.Made a mistake to go for this by brand name.At times we feel it's good to go for Chinese phones , which are doing better nowadays.

  • does this phone has PDAF? here its written that it has the same camera specs as the a6 plus but no PDAF. I mean if the autofocus is better on the a6 plus i might switch to that

  • i dropped mine from chest height very fast and it fell screen side flat. when i picked it up there were only minor scratches and a slight permanent bleed. no cracks at all

  • After update i lost my camera quality.Camera is looking like 5 MP. Very worst camera quality after that update.Guys please don't do this upgrade.

  • Pie update is good but Samsung UI is heavenly customize .Due to pie update smoothness of the mobile vanished.Now i want to reverse back to Oreo.

  • In Indian Model J8 It has outdoor mode in addition to adaptive brightness like Indian Model J6

  • The phone j8 is better phone from the A7 2018?

  • Yes

  • Is adaptive brightness same with auto brightness in your context ?

  • after pie update on j8 it has adaptive brightness whereas j6 has outdoor mode on pie

  • Php 11,990

  • Hi, I have a Galaxy j6 (It's really good). Should I change my phone for a Galaxy J8? What do you think?

  • 12K.. this is over priced

  • J8 got pie update in this month this year in russia only

  • Does this phone have Built in Call recorder Kindly advise, if someone know how to activate it.

  • Samsung Galaxy J8 Featuring damage- and scratch-resistant Corning® Gorilla® Glass 3, the 6-inch Super AMOLED Infinity display of the Galaxy J8 offers a one-of-a-kind viewing experience with stunning colour reproduction and deep contrasts. check corning gorilla website!!!

  • why samsung j8 dont have always on display

  • Samsung prepare for the Android Pie update for this model that is why battery drain quickly. The main thing is normally Android Oreo is better than Android Pie version. Samsung we don't want Android Pie update for this model we want Android Q update in future. we can wait for Android Q update. Please Samsung.

  • why my j8 battery drains suddenly

  • Go to recovery mode then you can wipe cache

  • In May

  • thats is because you might be overcharging the phone

  • I am not using this Mobile, But this is a serious problem, Go and check with service center

  • After 6 months of use. My battery when it reached 15% it suddenly turns off or become deadbat. Is it same with yours? Can I consider it a problem?

  • J8 does have Gorilla Glass 3!?

  • Red me 5 explods :P

  • Can i play FGO, Grand Chase and Honkai impact on high settings without lag for up to 13 - 15 hrs?

  • Any chance for updating android 9.0 pie for galaxy j8?

  • Good glance lockscreen on this model. I love to use this glance feature when im travelling, which also gives me live updates...

  • Wallpapers are good and the information is something I can actually use in real life.

  • yesss, better than j6

  • Someone gave me a Samsung J72018 is this a good phone

  • Is Samsung Galaxy J8 better than Samsung Galaxy J6?

  • I don’t face a difficulty in moving around and getting information on glance.

  • Very interesting way of knowing about the world around through glance. love it.

  • Like the lockscreen. glance is a feel good factor and motivates me to carry on with the day.

  • Jess good backup

  • I have a j8 mobile. all ok. my life best mobile in j8. Wonderful mobile.but my mobile contact deleted auto matiki Plz resolve the problem in my new mobile bye date 20/11/18 Software update all soo but not work

  • All maps use GPS. I think Here maps allows you a couple of settings which allow you to estimate direction. Also has a compass direction symbol. This may be sufficient for your purposes.

  • Your phone receives and transmits on specified frequencies listed in the specs above. Your mobile network provider may transmit on some of those frequencies. There are Google Play apps which can identify your closest tower and list the frequencies a particular provider uses. Compare this list with your phone frequencies. For instance I had one provider who didn't transmit 4g from my provider. I changed providers and got 4g. Another provider may also transmit a stronger signal. If you are using a J8 a second sim card from a diferent provider may be the answer. Put it in the sim1 slot for testing. Try to find out what frequencies the other providers use for that tower to see if you should change. I can't suggest an app as I am using an app limited to Australia. Of course, it may be that you are too far from a tower and have a weak signal. It is possible to get an external aerial and plug it to your usb port. A nuisance but better than a useless phone. Make sure the aerial specifically receives a frequency used by your provider at that tower. You can also lock your phone to 3g if that gives you a better connection. Slower but may be more stable.

  • Hi I want to know if j8 is better than redmi note 5

  • yes

  • Nah, J8 has no type c fhd+ display fast charging SD450 used in Redmi 5

  • Nice Device

  • No. It has a weaker processor and it also doesn't have usbe type c

  • Is samsung j8 better than samsung m20 ?

  • This is a very good way to know about the latest trends and news. Something very unique.

  • I am facing a big problem on j8, that is very in signal, can,t call , dialing a numbers 20 times for call..

  • Plz tell me samsung j8 is better yha hawaie y9

  • Very beautiful, informative. I actually have things to talk about in social gatherings now

  • it has been 2 days since i have bought it. overall phone is okay but the camera is ordinary and the other thing which it lacks fast charging feature. it took around 3 hours the battery from 48 to 100%.

  • Nope

  • is always on display on samsung j8

  • Everything is fine with the Samsung J8 Galaxy Mobile but when it comes to sensors: compass sensor is not available it means if we want to check directions like (East, West, North and South) does not work in samsung J8 Mobile( it shows error like No Magnetic (compass) sensor found!!! So must terminate this app ). I wish, this feature should have been available.

  • J8 Auto brightness will use front camera instead despite lack of ambient light sensor

  • Wrong J8 has auto brightness after update

  • Resolution only 273 ppi, No any auto brightness adjustments

  • Only last a year anyway, you have the good one next year wkwkwk

  • processor is not enough in this price, is there possibility of upgrading

  • hi,Battery life Endurance rating?

  • Cant install PUBG, Wolf Among Us, my phone is a J810Y with October Security patch

  • Also no gyro sensors and DLNA included

  • no nfc included. bad.

  • J8 mobile is better or j6 plus

  • hi,Battery life? Endurance rating?

  • Is j8 worthy to buy? Can it last more than 3 years?

  • The j7 plus would be a better option

  • i am going to buy j8 only...any negatives there?....good?

  • J8 or some other mobile

  • does the j7 pro worth buying than j8?

  • Download led notification from play store. Works perfectly. Uses d front flash

  • Since this is a very decent device and a considerable shortlist option, I'm going to point out only the cons: - Lacks sensors like gyro and frontal luminosity sensor. - The display has not the best resolution. It deserved a Full HD display. - DLNA and NFC connectivity are not present. - USB Type-C is also absent.

  • Quick Charge 2.0 Charger on J8 will still take time 9v 2a

  • Or Zoom S from this J8

  • About to upgrade to a J7 pro

  • It supports quick charge 2.0 but you have to buy the charger additionally..

  • Mine is still in October 1, 2018 patch. Which model do u own?

  • worth buying?

  • I agree with u I'm using j8

  • Nope J8 will charge more time

  • Worst upgrade ever produced by Samsung. The J7 pro has NFC capability whereas they have removed it from the J8. Still no answer from their development team as to why they did this but effectively means no contactless pay functionality which even the J2 offers. An embarrassing upgrade. Samsung should be ashamed of themselves. Scary thing is many retailers removed the J7 on the understanding that this was an upgrade

  • In this phone quick charge available or not?

  • Should tempered glass have a cut out for the front camera and led flash or it is ok if it is completely covered under the tempered glass? Will it affect the quality of the photos?

  • Nope

  • is this water proof?

  • Nope

  • Is this phone waterproof?

  • If you want Dual 4g Dual volte and auto brightness then please update

  • is it worth it to buy?

  • Galaxy j8 is not better than galaxy a6

  • J8 vs Realme 2 Pro Main Camera: 16+5mp vs 16+2mp Selfie Camera: Same as Realme 2 Pro Processor: Snapdragon 450 vs Snapdragon 660

  • Compare to Realme 2 pro which one is best Camera Processor

  • Plz update your and get 4g + 4g sim

  • I haven't tried to update mine since last month I bought it. Icuase I belive it will mees up my phone

  • recharge your sim with minimum Rs.65.

  • How's the battery life after the update.....Should I update the phone

  • I had this phone now for two month. I rate it 6.5/10 or maybe 7 IDK, although it has 3500mah of battery I played Online rpg where play the game nonstop wholeday. without turning the screen off. but my battery only last like 6-8 hours (includes 4g/lte on and screen is on, in mid brightness, volume at almost lowest setting.. or maybe I abused it imidately after I purchase it. like imidately I use it for online rpg game and charge it at the same time. last is it doesn't support 4k or higher than 1k pi video.

  • Yes after november update

  • Does this phone support dual 4g volte?

  • No sensors, slow processor ,no full hd display. Nokia provides all this in this price.

  • j8 is one of the best phone i ever know it is good for gaming and data user the battery is good even its only 3500 good for gaming and browsing for 2 days no charge needed proud j8 user here :)

  • nanay mo mobilie legends

  • What about Xiaomi Mi Max 3?

  • No, J8 cannot. I suggest you HUAWEI Y9 (2019) for long lasting battery performance.

  • Does the battery hold for about 2 days like j7 pro?

  • my sister just bought me the A7 2018 I love it picture quality is very clear. Beautiful phone It might take time for me to learn all the tools but will get there

  • J8 has auto brightness after november update

  • Camera is not good of J8. There is no use of dual camera if it can not take good quality picture . Instead of giving 2, 3, 4 camera give only one good quality of camera. After recent security update it gets disconnected from the 4G network automatically and after restart it shows 4G network again.

  • Does it support 4k video file ??

  • J810y hasnt received nov 2018 security. J810F (4gb) has received. Any news when the nov patch is coming for the J810y

  • Very good battery long lasting. The camera also very nice for day and good lighting places. Far better than j6+.

  • On Samsung phones if it's a newer version go to settings then device maintenance and clean ram and cache if you don't find it search on YouTube how to clean ram and cache

  • J8 is awesome

  • Ithinj Huawei Y9's Better Than

  • Waste of money..slow phone,,always lag while playing mobile legends.

  • Wrong J8 has dual volte dual 4g after november update

  • How do can I clean a phone ram and catch? Pks help!

  • J7 pro is still better than this phone LOL plastic body?? seriously...SAMSUNG..duhhhh

  • fake news!

  • Do check out other phones like the realme 2 pro ,redmi note 6 pro and asus zenfone max pro m1 with better displays ,better processors ,and better battery life.

  • They are the same except on8 is available in online exclusive stores

  • J8 got november update and added dual volte dual 4g ar emoji and auto brightness

  • See that your software is updated. You might have or will receive the uptade. Or else you can go to Samsung service centre. They will do it.

  • Very good phone

  • Last time I had updated my phone it took only security patch leve in update but nothing like auto brightness or dual 4G ..How and what should I have to do right now.. please answer me.

  • how do u update it to get the auto brightness feature???

  • after updating galaxy j8 it has auto brightness previously there is no auto brightness in old update

  • One Correction After Downloading new updates J8 Supports Dual 4G and VoLTE

  • Accessories are too expensive must be moderate to repair

  • Huawei Y9 is the shit

  • Clean ram,cache,backround apps and make sure your device isn't hot

  • Because its clearly stated in samsung website

  • It has a low resolution...

  • After downloading the new updates, j8 now has auto brightness sensor & supports dual volte 4g Sims too.working absolutely well.i am using this phone past 4 months. No complaints at all.even highend games like asphalt 8 play smoothly.

  • J8 is far better than these chinese phones

  • Helo guys, pks which one is better j8 or honor 8c?

  • How to prevent lag for games? Do i close apps or do somethinf else?

  • Same issue. I guess it's the network, not the phone. Because after i turn data off and on it works.

  • I got an update message 3-4 days back and i updated it on Samsung Galaxy On8. After that i am having issues with network in both the SIMs. Is there any resolution for this? anybody facing same issue?

  • 1.8ghz its clearly stated

  • Nope, J8 only has only two screenshot options palm swipe and hardware buttons

  • nice

  • it has no led notif just like j7prime or whatsoever.. but you can use flash notif. or screen notif, you just have to choose and after that when you have any notif. it blinks or flashes. You can also download Led blinker notif. (im using it) 🙂

  • go and buy that

  • realme 2 pro 128 gb is cheaper than this

  • Huawei Y9 2019 or Honor 8X

  • J6 vs J8 which is best for the prize???

  • Are you sure about this my friend? I am using it as a gaming phone but it does not hang. Maybe your FPS is just being affected by your ISP. lol.

  • this is a good smartphone much faster

  • Fake reviews....m using this mobile for last 15 days.. trust me its an awesome shit...nd playing pubg evryday for atlst 1 hr..trust me no lag at all..playing vry smoth....go forr it

  • Again raise issue in 15 days after purchase it....what should I do ?

  • Incoming calls not coming at all network....what should I do ?

  • Y9 2019 soooo much better for even less money...and looks ten times better

  • No this phone isn't good at this price

  • Or buy xiaomi and you won't be dissapointed at this price you can get a mi a2 have a look at it

  • I think oppo f7 is better

  • does j8 have guest mode??

  • Good display.camera also good

  • j8 is far beetter

  • Dont buy samsung device , Please buy nokia 6 plus or 7 plus is better than it

  • Bad experience with display

  • NO it dosent support fast charge it will take 2 hours for charge full

  • Best camera dear but we need to set fix focus it is not working well while you need to shoot photo of any moving thing

  • I am J8 User , Battery backup is best , Camera quality is best, Disappointed with display resolution while see movies, Phone lag while playing pubg,Rest features are good , Not able to use with one hand. Its not for gaming user.

  • does this phone have keyboard vibration on it?

  • Never buy honor 8x Its material is rough Glass broken and 60 percent pay to company during warranty

  • this is my first comment. Plz do not puchase this mobile 3rd class mobile no auto brightness no correct photos discomfort in handling.

  • Not for gaming. Lag all the time when playing mobile legends. So if you are a gamer dont buy this bulok j8! Vivo v8 mas ok

  • Incoming calls not coming at any network.....what should I do....

  • Yes ... Exactly agreed with the Comments above . Samsung is going dumb and dumb , and making huge price difference with important things missing .

  • I recently bought this phone. One thing I have noticed it doesn't have any led notification system. If u miss a call or message u will never know, till u open the phone. For other things it is fine. But lack of led notification makes this phone dumb

  • Nope

  • Is there Dual 4g Support n Realme 2 Pro or J8 which is best n why ?

  • Yeah... Your are correct. We don't care about the processing power of the chip set used. We only see the battery back up and Vanessa performance.

  • Same price as Honor 8x...which is better in every aspects. Must be crazy to buy J8, or even any low range Samsung phones. You simply buy the brand...Only S and Note are worth buying if you don't care of high price.

  • Helo guys, pls need to known if j8 comes with a notification led.

  • Samsung Galaxy J8 is very good as compared to the price and features. good battery backup and excellent camera quality with 16 MP + 5 MP Dual Camera with autofocus. nice to buy.

  • This Best mobile is best than iphone xs max this is a tab

  • Hi. Is there a long screenshot available in J8?

  • I just bought this phone before 2 weeks ago and it work well until now ,

  • stupid phone redmi note 5 pro is best up coming android P is officially j8 has nothing said because processor not suitable

  • they are the same

  • Samsung on 8 and samsung j8 are same.???

  • SD 450 1,8 ghz or 1,6 ghz?

  • Resolution sucks! 720 only. Not that good in games and watching HD movies :(

  • not best phone j8 game upload aplic and same item no fast not mob data speed

  • Camera so much poor

  • why gsmarena is forget some specifications for this phone like face recognition Sensor and it cpu octa 1.8 GHz not 1.6 (this in my country version)

  • Same problem

  • go for s9+ or note 9

  • It really depends on your standards. Like, are you a camera user? Gamer? Or just for business and messenging?

  • pls I need more info about Samsung I want too get a new phone and am thinking about going for Samsung but don't know the exact one too go for

  • Definitely go for v9. It has better chipset and camera specs. If you want more battery juice go for j8, it has more mah than the v9 and it has an amoled screen. V9 also great for heavy games.

  • I m using Redmi Note 3 for last two years. Now time to upgrade.. I am confuse between Samsung J8 or Vivo V9? Which one i should go for...?!??

  • why is it the worst phone ever, pls share your thoughts?

  • Is VOLTE option available there in J8?

  • You have to change the MP under camera settings. Maybe it was set up for low MP.

  • After using for one week i can say it is a very good phone. S Amoled display is very nice. sound quality is very good. internet is working very fast. Dolby atom sound in headphone mode is best. it is a complete package for a customer. phone speaker is very good.better then other Chinese phone.

  • j8 wrost phone ever increasing budget A7 2018 perfect choice

  • Wrong J8 has no fast charging

  • J8 allows fast charging absolutely

  • I am just bought samsung j8,, battery was great, one of the best battery life i have, good design, good sound with dolby, but this camera was poor, very poor, the focus camera so bad, and detail image poor. how about your camera samsung j8? please share your experience.

  • Nope

  • Nope

  • Nope

  • On8 Model is J810GF/DS and J8 Model is J810G/DS

  • Always-on display yes or no?

  • J8 support fast charging system Orr not??

  • Camera performance is not good

  • Because Samsung make the LCDs and give them-self discount! O3O

  • Phone is good ?

  • Finger Print sensor is Not Working....... Automatically Volume increes and Decrees.

  • Why other companies dont give super amoled display in budget smartphone.i think the only advantage for Samsung is super smiled display.

  • If Samsung build this phone exactly as your said then the price maybe triple or quadruple.

  • I would choose the J8, but try the P20 pro

  • i like this phone, but i wanna its body build is alluminium , can?

  • It has to have 10 gb ram 512 gb internal storage and triple back cameras 24 MP 1.3 apreture and recods video at 8K 120 fps .. micros sd up to 2 TB fm radio and usb type C 3.1 .. gorilla galss 6 infinity display 6.7 inch and cat 16 .. ip69 and triple selfie camera of 16 mp 1.2 aprature and a 5000 battery and triple sim all 5G.

  • j8 floop launched new galaxy A7 2018

  • This phone is waterproof?

  • j8 or a6+ answer asap

  • Nope. We can watch YouTube videos for HD720p

  • Lack of essential sensors like ambient light sensor is a big issue. Every time one has to adjust the brightness manually when he goes outside and vice versa

  • Price down only 200 euros now...because it is replaced by J6+ at same price. J6+ has 64 GB but worse camera, only quad core chip and no SD card...hard to follow the logic of Samsung.

  • Nope

  • Can i see videos on youtube in 1080p

  • Nova 3i or J8? Which one is the best?

  • Galaxy A9 pro vs Galaxy J8

  • does it good for an opinion pls

  • Nope

  • Nope

  • Is this comes with water proof

  • J8

  • Just don't buy this phone if you get a try out piece just install 8ball pool from the play store and look at the graphics and many apps just don't run in this over smart phone this phone is just a bunch of blabbering no notification LED light no gyro sensor no infrared sensor no compass in it and this display is just worse (screen resolution 720 x 1440 better go for 1080 x 1920) only the colours emitting looks good(Amoled display) but it's of no use better go for oppo,Xiaomi,etc and the youtube experience is worst you gotta zoom the video to full screen and many more irritating features in my life first time I bought Samsung phone but this is the last one better go for the other phones please just don't waste your worth money just install 8 ball pool I wish I could travel back in time and stop my self from buying it..shits!!

  • Does it have notification light

  • Obviously, Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro.

  • I felt the display glass is worst. It is not gorilla glass. Exactly after one month my j8 display cracked without any Reason. Nothing wrong from my side. I handled it with extra care. I hate it. Very poor model. Also problem with caller id display. For the Last two weeks it was not showing the caller id. The only thing good is the camera.

  • Yes the display glass is not good. Exactly after one month my j8 glass cracked. And now its display cracked without any Reason. Nothing wrong from my side. I handled it with extra care. I hate it. Very poor model.

  • Yes the display glass is not good. Exactly after one month my j8 glass cracked. And now its display cracked without any Reason. Nothing wrong from my side. I handled it with extra care. I hate it. Very poor model.

  • I felt the same problem. Exactly after one month. And now its display cracked without any Reason. Nothing wrong from my side. I handled it with extra care. I hate it. Very poor model.

  • Great Smartphone

  • Who did you waste your money on such a cheap phone? Why not buy a Galaxy S7 for the same money?

  • Plz Plz Plz! Don't waste your valued money on this dumbest mobile.... I fell like a looser by believing this SAMSUNG brand... I was very big fan of SAMSUNG MOBILES... after buying this SAMSUNG GALAXY J8 I am the biggest hater of this brand... this mobile downed my hopes on SAMSUNG... after buying this phone within 1 month it lost its logo.. then I have never expirnced these much laggy phone... I think any local China brand is far more better than this SAMSUNG GALAXY J8...

  • Atleast the can give gyroscope sensor

  • I think for camera is better samsung j8.bcz of apparture.

  • I think Samsung J8 2018 and Oppo F7/F9 many different. so I think better oppo f7/ f9, Heawei nova 3i ect.

  • I think better to use samsung ....

  • Get j7 pro

  • Actually J8 is really matching with my budget. But there are few concerns which may cause me to revert my decision. Such as glass protection(Gorilla) and noise cancellation feature which are not available for J8. Do I need to consider those factors much? I know J8 is a mid-range smartphone which we can' t expect almost everything like S9+ :) Please share your thoughts for my above 2 concerns?

  • J8 vs A6+

  • galaxy j8 vs redmi note 5 pro which is best?

  • Good mobile

  • I am using this phone since 6 days i brought from lahore pakistan 42K but i am dishard because of the speaker volume is too much low. And No LED notification light, No Always On Display. Camera is not so good

  • Dont blame samsung for not releasing updates. J series are entry level midrange smartfones. Dont expect to get too much from it. Ive been using J7 2016 for almost 2 yrs, and im happy to say that its been reliable in terms of battery and performance. When it comes to OTA updates, it would be Samsung's decision whether your fone would be included in the next update. Im from the philippines too. If you dont like samsung, better get an Mi A2/A2 lite android one from Xiaomi PH if you want to have your fone's OS up to date for 3 years.

  • does this mobile support dual volte ?

  • Thank You

  • Just go j7 duo

  • J7 pro

  • Yes you can.. Everything is good but.. Battery backup is worst... Iam an user of this phonee..

  • Dont ever buy Samsung phones here in the Philippines specially J Series bec. the update here in the Philippines is too slow and they would not even release the update which they promise like the J7 Prime etc... Samsung prioty are Europe countries not Asian countries specially here in the Philippines poor update for Samsung... Go for other brands I recommended it, just dont go for Samsung bec. You'll regret it poor Update here in the Philippines... Thank you

  • stuck btwn samsung galaxy j7 pro A6 (2018) J8 I NEED YOUR ADVICE FOR THE BEST PHONE ?

  • should i get the J8?

  • J8 has bad camera, not crisp display, pixelated, lack of color on the camera, no tone, wished I bought another,

  • No difference

  • I just want to know if the j8 can accommodate the use of an S pen? thank you

  • I agree

  • I've had all Samsung S series, and my next phone will be S10...but the truth is Samsung is now killed by new chinese phones for low and mid range phones. Hopefully they will react soon...evolve or die.

  • My eyes are open! But you are a samsung hitter

  • No need to believe, just open your eyes.

  • Snapdragon 450 for a more expensive device compared to a redmi note 5 ai snapdragon 636 at a cheaper price.. laughing my ass off at the comparison

  • galaxy j8 has SD 450 price 19K Xioami poco f1 has SD 845 price 20K samsung foolish devices

  • Go for A8 Star.

  • Bullshit! I don't believe a word of what you say!

  • I'm thinking of the same A6+/J8/A8+ I'll mostly buy A6+ as i like compass sensor and it has it. It also has Android 8.0. But J8 probably has nfc + samsung pay. A8+ seems to have it. So check and go for them based on your interests. J8 & A8+ both seems to have Android 7.1

  • Everything is old specs...screen, memory, chipset, cameras, design,...About same price as Oppo F9 or Huawei 3i...people would be crazy to buy J8...Note, S, A or J series, so overpriced...

  • Super Phone Of the price super size display,Super Camera This is the best phone of this prize to buy.

  • J8 Or A6+ Is The Best Phone Guys??

  • O my god

  • Samsung mobiles last minimum 3 to 4 yaers.... Now the calculation is...... if you bought other brand you pay INR 15000+15000+15000=45000 instinct than INR 18000. So you save: 45000-18000 = 23000. I calculate that Samsung mobiles last minimum 3 years.

  • j7 pro

  • Then why did you bought it?

  • really ....

  • why?

  • Dont buy this worst j8 infinity phone you cannot play pubG game in this device go for redmi note 5 pro

  • J8

  • please help me j7pro or j8??

  • bad processor bad display higher price 19K stupid company

  • but don't you think that the cpu is bad ?

  • Why all this hate? It's a good phone and it's totally worth it. Been using it for almost a month now and the performance is very nice for a mid-range phone.

  • Wonder why so many negative comments???it's a good phone. Worth buying.display,battery, camera r awesome. Using it since quite some time.fully satisfied. Absolutely no complaints

Seriously??!! And there are more 1) No Automatic display brightness !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 2) No FHD display !!!!!! 3) Terrible terrible speaker !!!!! 4) Snapdragon 450 only !!!! 5) No USB type C !!! 6) Not any fast charging !!! 7) Plastic back panel !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 8) More......for example NFC....

  • A6 plus is much better than j8 .a6plus has nice camera and excellent battery

  • Friends i just bought this J8 , 2 days before,it was awesome....👍👍

  • this comment section is terrible. what I'm seeing here is smartphone politics.

  • Me too , you can compare with them by this site

  • its screen blinks while typing message or using facebook, don't understand

  • You want better phone than this go to nokia 6.1plus . Pure android but battery 3000mah only.

  • So whats new in this?? no water/dust/splash resistance! for God sake change screen from Super AMOLED capacitive touchscreen, 16M colors to ne technology its very very old version. Resolution 720 x 1480 pixels, 18.5:9 ratio (~274 ppi density) very funny! Very expensive mobile phone with no new functionality. What about charging or call, sms indicator light??? Please increase battery capacity.

  • galaxy j8 price 19K galaxy on8 2018 price 17K these phones are identical specifications and features but price wise different people buying fool one of the frad company Samsung

  • Guys pls help me which one is better J8 or J6. I need to buy a phone urgently?

  • Which glass does this phone come with? Is it scratch resistant?

  • It's all about quality control,being assembled in China does not automatically mean it's garbage, am sure you would expect a better quality from Apple products compared to a no name Chinese brand even though they are all manufactured in China..

  • Go for samsung a6 plus.It will cost thousand INR more than j8 but you will get a superb screen quality.

  • 4gb - 64gb & 3gb - 32gb both are available in market

  • same to me bro... my j7 also 2 years old and it's still working better👌

  • not true. My new Samsung J7 pro metal body slipped and had ink on screen without cracks. they are not durable

  • I was given flyers yesterday and it said the RAM was 3gb so not sure why it says 4gb here.

  • A7 is better than any other Samsung J phone

  • nowadays, almost all cellphones (any brand/company) are assembled in china, so what's the point about durability ?

  • please help me....which one should i buy samsung galaxy J8 or samsung galaxy A6 (2018)

  • If u use mobile long time go to samsung. Use only one year below go to chinese brands. Because samsung mobiles are durable.

  • Which phone is better j8 or A7 (2017) Plz help me

  • Who's best samsung J8 or samsung A7 (2017)

  • Xiaomi's Redmi Note 5 has better performance results. Samsung's device on the other hand has a beautiful design. Despite that fact, Xiaomi's phone has a pretty cool design too. My opinion: Redmi Note 5: + Design + Performance + Budget / Price Galaxy J8: + Design + Camera - Price - Performance

  • The 3i is somewhat more expensive and huawei interface is rather ugly also the screen is LCD not AMOLED, has the notch which not everyone wants at all. Still if you don't mind those things no doubt the 3i is the better device, looks like samsung is making too much money on that J8.

  • YEah Yeah

  • For same price Nova 3i has 4 GB Ram and 128 GB Rom, better screen resolution, better chipset, etc...

  • Release in Latin America??????

  • I am using Samsung J7 for more than 2 years now and still working good.....

  • is usb tethering function available in j8? (nt wifi hotspot)

  • Question: Does Samsung J8 have "always on" function?

  • Price and spec? Redmi Note 5 beats this.

  • Note 5 pro.

  • the processor is not 1.6 ghz octa core........it"s 1.8 ghz octa core

  • redmi note 5 pro vs galaxy j8 which is best for your opinion battery & camera?

  • good phone but i prefer to nokia 6.1 which is available stock Android . Snapdragon cpu.camera are very good.slow motion etc.thanks nokia

  • does it have IR blasters for mirroring & Gyrosensor

  • maybe you got a defective one bro . check it with service center . i brought the same mobile 4 gb with 64 internal storage . its doing great . multi tasking is great . i play a lot of games and the battery backup is awesome . i have used redmi note 5 earlier which has better specificatons than j8 but j8 performance in real time usage is great . i use airtel 4g volte and i downloaded pubg in 20min . internet reception is great i havent got any 4g issus like u have .

  • Ha ha ha... Samsung 720p display for this price.... Just a big shame

  • Been using this phone for 2 weeks now and I have yet to find any issues with it. Yep, it still runs 3GB RAM and 32GB in our country but its performance and durability is way better than those of the chinese brands. Responses are great for its specs, battery life is superb even in heavy usage - games run great - not perfect but great and ofcourse the way it looks is super-classy. And knowing that it's from Samsung gives you an added assurance that it's durable and made to last and you can feel it just by holding it in your hands. PS. Plus the free JBL Clip 2 when you pre-ordered the phone was a very, very awesome add-on unlike the one from the 3i. 9/10 for me. ,\../

  • go for nokia 6.1

  • Nova 3i 1080p display 128gb storage Better processor Premium glass body Better cameras Longer lasting battery J8 Plastic body 720p display Old processor Costs the same as nova 3i Obviously the nova 3i is a better choice

  • A6+ way better

  • Samsung is branded. Don't buy China mobiles

  • Guys which phone is better J8 or J6 or A6+?

  • Samsung is getting to new lows with their phones, when the chinese are trying to give people phones with improved specs...The only way is up, but sadly not for Samsung.

  • Samsung Galaxy J8 - Nova 3i Which phone better

  • absolutely right only 8k 10k for brand name like note 5 pro is better responsive device perfect specifications

  • Why you used j8 for two months? It was released late july? Confused.

  • bro note 5 pro is way ahead of j8, go for note5 pro

  • Cant play 4k videos.. Internet is 3g not 4g.. Wifi support only 2ghz.. not 5 g.hz...

  • I have purchased Samsung J8 through Paytm. On using this J8 more than two months i sincerely advise you not to buy J8. Ram is also very slow, internet is slow, windows taking long time. I am using the Jio network in Hyderabad. even i am struggling to connect web.whatsapp. On comparing to xiaomi general class mobile i felt shame to have this J8. waste of money Rs.18990/- Rs. 8000/- is correct price for this mobile. even the camera is also poor. Dont go for Samsung J8. even this fails to perform to the level of my old Moto G3.

  • Buy branded phone like Samsung. Not Chinese phone only have paper value

  • A6+

  • j8/a6

  • I am confused in mi note 5pro and Samsung j8. Help me.

  • which is better phone.. j8 or A6+?

  • J8 Have The Always On Display???

  • No bro

  • A6+

  • i have samsung j8 mobile. i update security patch and after my mobile battery down in one day.

  • A7 (2017). The best battery!!

  • Gies j8 is best in this range this is available in 17k only on flipkart and paytm. It has not 1080p but AMOLED is cover this cons. Its display is superb quailty. Trualy it has some lack but not like other brands. Sammy coustomer service is also fast nd good. Good job sammy

  • Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro drops flash sale available 24/7

  • Guys which phone is better J8 or A6+?

  • Nova 3i is better option

  • My cousin uses samsung brand and She purchase j8 last week . After using 7 days she found j8 has no speed as price range. some time screen blinking problem also occurs.She go to service center and sir tell her this problem is resolve in next security patch upgrade. So this is very bad phone in this range there are so many options are available in market.

  • Is this J8 compatible with Bluetooth speaker version V4.0

  • That the problem, only India market getting 4GB RAM 64GB ROM version, the rest getting 3GB RAM 32GB ROM version. Nowadays apps take a lot of ROM space, 64GB should be the minimum storage space,

  • Nope

  • india version 4GB ram 64GB on board storage guys.....

  • 3GB RAM & 32GB ROM Samsung still think we are in 2016.

  • So true about specs lol.

  • Samsung is selling on a brand value not a device 19K for this stupid device

  • 19K not acceptable HD display & SD 450 not a valu for money

  • Design and specs from 3 years ago...Samsung cannot see the chinese are launching better and cheaper phones ?

  • hello screen burn

  • Go for J8 compared to J6, It has Snapdragon 625 SDM unlike J6,also screen size is big plus the dual cameras with HD+ quality make it worth to buy for.

  • Samsung is the number one company for making memory chips...and still can't put at least 64 GB inJ8. Shame...

  • Friends pls help me , i need to buy a phone. J8 or J6 which is better one?

  • It's working better....nice photo quality

  • In most countries except India J8 comes only in 3GB/32GB version...real let down when all of its competitors have 64GB or even 128 GB. Samsung is out of touch with reality, that is why they are loosing market share fast.

  • Nope

  • Please double check if it's original or not

  • I bought this phone in Kenya and it came with only 32GB storage and 3GB ram :( What a sheer disappointment. I thought I would get 64GB

  • J8 is better

  • Hello guys, does j8 has a notification led?

  • thank you....

  • Honestly though, this phone is terribly overpriced. The Snapdragon 450 is a basic processor and many people will feel the limitations with apps/multitasking. Redmi 5’s 4/64GB version with the same processor (through without dual camera) is just Rs 10,999. Moto G6 has a much better glassmetal design and similar specs for Rs 15,999.

  • is this phone wont get burn?because my a5 got it burn. frustrating me.

  • support wireless charging?

  • J8

  • I just want to ask if this has a calling+ feature where you can browse the net while you are on a call? thanks!!!

  • same bro i got j7 prime 1yr 8mos but still no issue

  • which mobile has better results in camera segment ??? mi 5 pro or samsung j8 ?

  • U never compate any phone with j8 if u were a camera lover u gor for j8

  • Correct my friend my samsung j7 16 2 years ang 1 month until now its good performance..the other chines phone worst.

  • You can buy a chinese phone oppo or vivo if you change your phone every year...but if you want something that will last at least three years, buy a Samsung...

  • Go for Nova 3i.. it's way better than j8

  • galaxy j8 vs redmi note 5 pro which is best for battery & camera?

  • Samsung no auto brightness no compass no anymore sensors

  • j8 is much better to chinese oppo F7

  • J8 Is The Best Choice

  • Galaxy j8 is not so good as mi lots of features missing..image resolution is poor processor is not up to the mark...and above all very costly in this range...you can even opt better option in other brand, very disappointed after buying j8..😪

  • what to buy huawei nova 3i or samsung galaxy j8?

  • J8 vs A6, which one is better ?? TYIA

  • oppo f7 is much better,, samsumy j8 processor is very low which is 1.6 A53 so al mob will be slow but oppo f7 i own it for 2 months very good and fast mobile

  • It should stay j8

  • Please help me decide. Which is better, OPPO F7 or SAMSUNG J8,????

  • Oppo f7

  • if you are chinese troll..redmi is better...if not...samsung is the greatest

  • Don't get me wrong J8 does have otg support

  • Galaxy J7 is now Galaxy J8

  • i have Galaxy note 8 and Redmi Note 5 pro. To be honestly Redmi note 5 pro is wonderful phone in low price. And Build quality are very good of Redmi Note 5 Pro

  • Redmi Note 5 Pro Ai much better then J8 and lower price mobile phone then Galaxy j8 Redmi note 5 pro ai More MAH Battery thend Galaxy J8 and Better chipset 625 then samsung galaxy J8, and Redmi Note 5 Pro Aluminium Body phone while galaxy j8 note So in my openion Redmi note 5 pro is much better and alternative mobile phone then Galaxy J8

  • Redmi Not 5 pro Ai is much better then Galaxy J8,

  • suggest me which one is good Redmi Note5pro or else samsung J8?? lots of confusion....

  • What are some good alternatives for Galaxy J8?

  • is j8 good for games

  • in terms of camera.. oppo is the best because when i compare in actual at mall nova 3i display i found out that oppo is the best

  • I know j8 is an very good phone but if comparable with nova 3i which would be best i am very confused. As we all know that samsung phones are readily available online and in the local retail market too. But huawei phones are only been available through online so thats the major drawback of the company. I think so huawei phones are quiet good as compared to other chinese brands like Mi,Moto/leno,Vivo,Oppo Nokia & Premium brand one plus. I think so huawei should come under local retail market so that it can easily take off samsung..

  • I choose it just for Super AMOLED =D

  • I am a fan of Samsung but know this,the J series isn't that good..while the j8 is priced here in sri Lanka at 45,000Sl rupees ($281),options such as the vivo v9 youth not only has the same processor,better cameras but also is also $81 cheaper,plus also has a notch

  • Chinese mobiles strong in paper. But reallife useage samsung is best quality, best battery life.

  • Yes it supports. But don't buy it.very bad experience first time from Samsung. Problems started after 15 days

  • Hai friends which one is better j8 or j6 plz help me to buy a good phone

  • waste device stupid price point 19K foolish buyer buying

  • Samsung phone has low aperture lens unlike other brands,you should consider this too.That's why Samsung is one of tge top choice.

  • I prefer Samsung software over Nova...Samsung has years of experience, and TouchWiz is the best, very easy to use. User interface of the chinese phones is badly made, confusing.

  • go for nova 3i without any second thoughts . J8 is overpriced for an SD450 chip and nova 3i is far better in terms of screen camera and processor

  • J8 Is batter, first all accessories is available in local markite abd Samsung is a branded

  • Samsung isn't a fan of type-c with fast charging. It's a pioneer brand that stays with obsolete rectangle screen & micro usb port.

  • same here! in terms of specs, nova 3i is really the winner but if we talk about durabilty...i trust samsung than huawei

  • yes ofcourse

  • i am having a hard time to choose whether nova 3i or j8? pls help

  • samsung thinks by decreasing resolution from 1080 to 720, they will fool buyers, instead they are fooling themselves... onced i hoped that 720 will be a part of past one day and cheap mobiles will have 1080 atleast and premium devices would have 1440×2900 ..

  • Samsung galaxy on8

  • 274ppi for 19k? What the shit it was, Seriously not worth for money.. and also worst security options coz no internal app lock option and evn can't able to hide pop-up notifications frm apps, but phone looks and camera ok otherwise phone will 👎👎👎

  • J8

  • Yes ofcourse

  • lol try to use it for 3,4 years, then see difference of quality vs quantity

  • as usual, another overpriced low spec phone from samsung , buy xiaomi mi note 3 or mi 8 SE instead. almost the same price but much much better.

  • J8,

  • J8...

  • Only 32 Gb for J8 in my country, when Huawei and Oppo gives 64Gb or even 128 Gb...no wonder Samsung market share is going down.

  • does j8 support otg? plz help!

  • J8

  • J8

  • J8 ..

  • J8

  • I used this mobile means j8

  • Friends please help me which is better J8 OR J6. I need to buy a phone ..

  • Which mobile you r using

  • Read the specs my boy...

  • Too good but no otg support

  • Because J7 Pro had FHD resolution display and J8 only HD+.

  • Oh yes, recently Xiaomi released Global Beta ROM. Therefore Note 5 Pro will get Oreo. Thanks for info.

  • Lol.. i used redmi note 5 pro and already has oreo few month ago.. u said forget about oreo? Miu10 also available but in beta version that more smooth and fluid than samsung ui..

  • It depends on user's experience, so I respect that.

  • I use this phone last 2 weeks display is good.not to my previus mobile j7 pro. Cameras are so good pictures are clearly. Battery is good to one day hard usage.

  • Yes, make one incoming call and one outgoing call in the country where the phone is bought. Please note each call should be of minimum 6 minutes.

  • finally broken my trust on samsung mobile I bought samsung j8 in India there have to much defect touch pad is not good and screen resolution also is not good..thanks

  • Ibwill tell not compare redmi phones. Not huawei. They equal to samsung .

  • Helo guys, how's the battery performance?

  • Is there in built app lock?

  • any way to unlock sim to be used in Middle East for J8...........

  • Agree with you about J8 disadvantages. Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1 is also plastic build. The camera quality of Max Pro is much much worser than J8. Consider other options.

  • I admit when it comes to design but? this one is made of plastic duhhhh! and already reach 15990 php? I'd rather chose premium glass feels or metal body than plastic regardless if its durable or not. chipset is poor and 720x1480 pixels? naaah! J7 is better than this or I'd go to Asus Zenfone Max Pro (M1) instead. poor over price company

  • 1. J7 Pro 2. Note 5 Pro J8, I would not recommend. J7 pro is good, if you don't play heavy/large games. The performance is good, but lesser than Note 5 Pro. Remember when 0.2" screen is added vertically to 5.5" screen of 16:9 ratio, it becomes 6" of 18:9 ratio (tall screen). Therefore the body/screen design should not be a problem with J7 Pro. This model is scheduled for Oreo update in Dec 2018. Note 5 Pro is good, if you can adjust with medium quality camera. The camera & LCD display are inferior compared to J7 pro. Remember it's a Lithium Polymer battery, which has a short life span compared to Lithium ion battery of J7 pro. Polymer battery and fast charger are a very bad combination. Forget about Oreo.

  • don't buy this device check specifications before buying

  • j7 pro vs redmi note 5 pro vs galaxy j8 which is best?

  • J8 is a very poor phone because this phone finger print sensor are worst and also camera a1 is much better than j8 camera

  • Agree that J7 pro is quite better than J8, except that Exynos 7870 of J7 Pro is 20% inferior in terms of performance compared SDM450 of J8. Plus at 1080p FHD display resolution, there's no room for heavy games in J7 Pro.

  • High quality and legit parts for its hardware and software. So that's why they can't issue a phone that is high on specs on a low price. Not some other brands who gave specs much much higher but last only on a blink.

  • and these midranger king only range from 15,990 php or below so the other brands like oppo and their f7 mark down its price from 18k to 15k php. To be able to compete with its sell in the market. And their specs are almost the same but j8 was more than enough good for me.

  • No Gorilla Glass, Only Snapdragon 450 very poor, No Barometer and No Compass... Plastic body tsk tsk... J7 Pro is much beter comparimg to this J8

  • Bought it for 300 dollars. Great value for money. Not too big or heavy. Very good cameras even in low light. Fast and easy to use. Specs may be lower than those of some chinese phones, but the result and usage is very pleasing. Though 32 GB only, should be 64 GB... Love it.

  • if there is no issue of snapdragon 450... it has good camera clarity so i think j8 is better than mi 5 pro.am i right ???

  • This phone camera Good f1. 7 very much better thin f2. 2 or f2. 0 otherwise hardwear not good this price range

  • in case of camera samsung has great clarity than 5 pro, i want best camera phone. processor does not matter.

  • I don't have any problem with this phone even it's use snapdragon 450

  • Chinese brands are always economical compared to Samsung.

  • Definitely Mi 5 Pro, which is a 2 years old flagship model, much better than this J8 midrange device.

  • Snapdragon 450 hahahaha...

  • It is obvious that Mi 5 is better. Mi 5 has Snapdragon 820 and Adreno 530.

  • If that's the case then Samsung have mess up them selves.

  • Nope...in Philippines and Thailand A6+ has only 32 GB memory like J8...and Nova 3i 128 GB for the same price 300 dollars. Samsung is so greedy they are shooting themselves in the foot.

  • I want to buy a new mobile which one better , SAMSUNG J8 or MI 5 PRO ??

  • Samsung is doing this to seperate it from the Samsung galaxy a6+

  • J7 pro is a 2017 model. J7 2016 is the first model to equip the same chipset Exynos 7870.

  • Exactly.. if people will notice.. samsung is like refurbishing their old chipset to new cases like what happened to A6 & J6 the only difference for both is the case but the same chipset.. comparing the two.. J7Pro is still the best for both (just waiting for the OREO update)

  • In Manila J8 has only 3GB/32GB memory. For exactly the same price Nova 3i has 4GB/128GB...Samsung has made my choice easy.

  • you want to much bro its a low end phone if you want that much go for a flagship :)

  • A phone which i m not happy to buy..It has a fingerprint sensor issue because of which i m facing a big problem ..I trusted this brand a lot but now i m very disappointed. i would request the team to please work upon it.

  • screen on time how many hours showing?

  • when is j9 lauching? sn 650 but 3500Mah was too low and 6gb ram will be great.

  • Like you, I was using J7 for 2 years. Yesterday bought J8. Its awesome. good LED display. Good battery backup. Very nice speed

  • J8 is brillent choice

  • this is spec for Indian version. The phone sold in VietNam has only 3GB RAM and 32GB internal storage and has no light sensor

  • Which one is good , Samsung J8 and Mi Note 5 Pro ? I want to buy a new mobile but i am confused betn this two,N I want best Camera Phone.

  • Hi.... I am looking to purchase one phone...being using Samsung j7 for 2yrs....and always used Samsung phone.....now I am confused between asus max pro 6gb variant and Samsung j8....I know asus zenfone max pro features are better than Samsung j8....but I have doubts it's durability, meant to stay Samsung worked even after dropping the phone many times... Will asus be as sturdy as Samsung or not..... Please do suggest which to buy...

  • galaxy j8 headphones quality bad or not?

  • Please remember that Most home TV display resolution is full HD and few that using 4k but people didn't complaint about it. In just 6 inch display, HD resolution pair with super amoled is already good to see.

  • It seems to me that there is a mistake in specs 66% screen ratio ..

  • Stop with this Xiaomi spam which is always better...it is a chinese crap and Samsung gives you way better usage experience. Can't beat J8 at 250 euros.

  • For 250$ they put SD 450, and HD+ Resolution? Ofcourse ram is DDR3. May be the battery is best. But Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 (global version) have 4000mAh, better display res., and the beast SD 636. And cost 150$ (100$)....

  • please remember that amoled displays get screen burn ins.. while lcd's do not. having an amoled display doesnt mean its automatically better, this phone just has a 720x1480 display, which is worse than other phones in this price range

  • Samsung Have A Amoled Display And The Samsung Has A Good Name In The World wide so J8 Is Better Then Display Styles Etc.

  • I Am Not Use J8 But I Know Samsung Phone Are Very Good Amazing Look Superb Amoled Display I Use J7 Prime in 2 years Still No Any Promlems Phone Is Perfectly Working Samsung Is Best Phone Brand In The World So First Try J8 After Comment For That.

  • Nope. Better get the Nova 3i. PHP15,990 with 128GB on board storage!

  • F7. Check out the Nova 3i. Cheaper price with better specs! Also, pre ordering it will include you a free Bluetooth speaker!

  • Um, Huawei is Samsung's biggest threat in the mid-range game. Take a look at the Nova 3i. Much better on everything. Not to mention that it uses "glass back" to appreciate the premium build quality of the phone (of course, a free silicone case is included too if you want to hide the fingerprint magnets).

  • Definitely the nova 3i. The J8 has a sd 450 chipset.. which is worse than the nova 3i's brand new kirin 710. Also the display on the j8 is only 720p, the nova 3i has a 1080p display. 4 cameras on the nova 3i, 3 on the j8. the nova 3i also has double the storage on the j8. Finally, the nova 3i has a much more better design, with a glass back and beautiful colors. Your choice man

  • Not bad for 250 euros...but the new Nova 3i is so more premium. Don't know which one to choose.

  • hey Guys which is better samsung j8 or oppo f7?/ help im confused

  • Samsung is symbol of quality. Not compare delicate redmi phones.

  • buddy you should confirm things before commenting on them. Qualcomm SDM450 Snapdragon 450 is upto 1.8 GHz not 1.6

  • Not available in the Philippines

  • When is the launch date in the Philippines? It would be available here or not?

  • you have to google it yourself. Not everything shall spoon feed to you.

  • Many very bad things as plastic body, no magnetic sensor compass, no gyro, no nfc and unremovable battery .Samsung must change these bad things. Samsung must change managers who order these bad things.

  • Only Powerfull Processor isn't all friend. You need charge backup. Samsung have Stunning SuperAmoled Infinite Display, Powerfull Camera, Nice UI & Heave Bettery. I think Samsung is now on right track. Bravo Samsung....😀

  • Snapdragon 450 is 1.6 Ghz not 1.8 Ghz

  • What happened to samsung 6 inch and aspect ratio 720x1480 too bad Sd 450..a 2 year old processor No fast charging Plastic body too bad I think redmi note 5 pro is a better choice

  • Why Qualcomm SDM450 Snapdragon 450??? Is this a latest version?? Thanks!

  • At 250 eur Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 is much better option. A1 or A2 from Xiaomi as well. As many others. This is joke not a phone.

  • At 250 euro no gyro and compass its a joke.

  • yes 1080

  • Because the resolution of J7 screen is high.

  • j8 274 ppi only previous j7 pro has 401 ppi better display clarity

  • where is gyro sensor ?

  • hi Aiwa... can you please tell me any samsung care line contact number .

  • Biased comment.

  • Your smartphone "unit" is different from mine. Yeah, we have the same J8 smartphone, but do not compare your own unit to any other unit with the same J8 smartphone with your Crappy comment. If you have a faulty device, you have to visit your Samsung Care Center or wherever you purchased it.

  • this is not true thing . because i am using this device . and so many issues are there in this phone ------ (1) hanging issue -- device hangs a lot (2) heating issue -- heats so much (3) battery draining issue -- device's battery drains very fast (4) restarting issue -- sometimes , my this device restarts automatically ( features are very very poor -- ////////// never think for it , try other phone

  • fake news.... there is no such issue in the fone.

  • really?

  • Did you visit your nearest Samsung Care Center for you childish complaint?

  • NO. In PH, only 3GB RAM and 32GB ROM

  • Disappointed: 1. 720 x 1480 pixels - HD? really? 2. Plastic body - What happened to the J series all metal uni-body? 3. MicroUSB 2 - Type C should be a standard especially J series! it's 2018! 4. You can get a better smartphone at its price.

  • overpriced phone.. low end specs should consider other phones with the same price range

  • Is the specs is same in Philippines? 4gb ram and 64gb rom ?

  • No fast charging and gorilla glass

  • j8 display not a sharp only colour reproduction bad display

  • Where Company you from? Hahaha

  • It doesn't have gyroscope nor compass, it makes this cellphone not powerful at those characteristics...

  • I buy A5 2017 Blue colour Single Sim for 215 Euro whit Android Oreo 8.0.0 out of the box and imediatly receive 288 MB software update Beautiful phone ! Don't buy J series it's expensive don't worth money, very slow update software and security patch !

  • Seriously a good phone... Thanks samaung..

  • Considering that A5 2017 now can be purchased for 200 euro i don't thing that this phone should cost more than 200 as well.

  • Plastic body of phone does upset me...rest all is very good....

  • you are right ,

  • hi , guys , please if you want to be always happy , then do not buy this at any cost . , i had a good opinion about it . but when i purchased it , i came to know about its reality what it is actually .. so many issue are there in my this phone . i never want to touch this phone again . (1) battery drains very fast (2) hanging related issue .(3) heating every time (4) automatically switches off frequently . (5) screen flickering ( 6) works very very very slow . (7) taking so much time to gets fully charged . and (8) features are not good try other device

  • Will it be available in all countries in Europe?

  • I believe weight is 177g, not 191g. Is is made of plastic, so lighter than the 186g A+

  • I'd say J8 is probably the best in the J and A serie if you consider price and specs...i wonder why they don't release it in every countries. Maybe people would not buy A6+ or A6...

  • exactly

  • No compass, useless phone for me.

  • is there slow motion recording in camera futures. rly me plss......

  • j8 standby time?

  • Excellent phone in the budget .Dual camera at the back.16MP camera front.3500 MaH battery back up is excellent for the whole day.6cm display is super.Branded phone in he budget.

  • You've right when you compare dpi. But you can't compare diagonal due to aspect ratio. With 18.5/9 aspect ratio, this J8 has a 6" diagonal but screen is less large than a 5.5". It's like iphone X, diagonal is 5.8" but screen is as large as a 5.0" 16/9 And you shouldn't forget that J8's price is a third of iPhone 8's (But still too high for an HD device with SD450)

  • It's right, it's strange... But beware with diagonal and aspect ratio. 6" with 18/9 aspect ratio is as large as 5.5" with 16/9...if you've got 1080, you've got 401dpi for both This 6" with 18.5/9 is a tiny bit less large

  • what are you talking iphone 8 is a 4.7 inches, 60.9 cm2 (~65.4% screen-body ratio) Resolution is 16:9 ratio (~326 ppi density) j8 ha 6 inch big display 18:9 274 ppi density

  • higher display requires higher cpu performance. Samsung did benchmark for right....cpu with correct display rez. you better need to go tech school...

  • iphone 8.....is not full hd too... but display looks great

  • waste phone no full HD display no gorilla glass, low ppi , plastic body, weak processor&gpu , basic sensor only, build quality is very bad her name is Samsung price is 19K don't accept

  • samsung galaxy j8 phone is ex-lent and good looking,very cute....i love the samsung brand phones..

  • It's just ridicoulous that we get 6 inch screen with 720p when preiously on the J7 2017 the screen was 5.5" 1080p

  • samsung j8 is good look than other old models. i think, samsung has a new way in today's market.

  • just cause it is 720p does not make it bad it still is super amoled and is pretty bright hell the iphone 8 is 720p

  • still 720x1480 pixels ?? throw this phone into the trash !!

  • It’s water resistant

  • Missing notification feature like no notification given about miss call or unread message and no indicator during battery charging.

  • how is gaming? is there notification ligjt???

  • tell me huawei modal number plzzz thnx

  • I'm using samsung galaxy J8 really very good

  • Sd 450 was unveiled in Q3 of 2017

  • And this is why samsung J and A phones are made for stupid peasants,everything that is not an S class or Note is not an actual samsung phone for me.I don't ever recommend this phones,they are pure garbage,you can buy an allview or huawei they might be better phones LOL :))

  • Seriously sd 450 in 2018. Wow!!! Common Samsung you will not gonna make good business. Only die hard fan of Samsung will buy this crappy phone.

  • Galaxy A6 or J8? help

  • Right ;-)

  • A6+ costs a bit more but is better in many aspects - 1. Higher res screen - 1080 screen vs 720 while having similar size. 2. Same processor but it will be slower on the A6+ since the same processor has to work with a much higher res screen. 3. Metal unibody on the A6+ vs plastic body on the J8. So the A6+ will definitely be more premium. 4. Neither has quick charge or Type C USB which is a shame considering the A6+ is a more premium device. 5. The A6+ has more sensors like compass among others while the J8 lacks those sensors. Between the two the main USP of the A8+ is higher res screen and more premium design. If it was my choice it would be neither.

  • Wow for the price it sells at Samsung really knows how to screw the customers. 1. 720p screen in 2018. At 6' you are going to notice the low res screen. 2. SD450 processor. Again something found in very cheap phones but honestly the screen is the biggest let down. An SD450 powering a 720p screen is going to be very fluid. 3. Lack of sensors. No compass, no gravity sensor and others again which are found in budget devices. 4. No quick charge - Even though the Snapdragon 450 chipset supports QC 3.0 Samsung felt that buyers can wait and have patience with regular slow charging :) 5. Micro USB charging slot - Not a biggie but for the price this device sells at its ridiculous to cling to micro USB.

  • thanks for your opinion

  • You are absolutely right. ......101 %

  • Definitely note 5 pro. It's beast. Sd450 is not even near to sd636.. It's like comparing Toyota vs Lamborghini.

  • Of course redmi note 5.. It's much much better then j8. Exynos 7870 is far behind snapdragon 636.

  • Also, SD625 has a dual ISP and supports 4k recording, both of which are absent in the SD450.

  • It's stunning . The wonderful thing about this phone is it is secured by Knox. More over high definition videos are brilliant. I would definitely recommend galaxy j8.

  • PH

  • 250 eur for sd 450 wtf

  • J8 vs redmi note 5 pro which is best battery?

  • J8

  • where you from anyway?

  • Alright. The only problem is... Is it gonna be available in my country?

  • SD450 is mostly an underclocked SD625...same cortex A53 but 1.8ghz instead of 2.0, same Adreno 506 There's a far far bigger gap between 636 and 625. Don't care of naming...see what it is instead

  • Atleast update the info

  • SD450... Ok, but why not putting it at least SD625? Anyways, that camera will be a great contender against Nova 2i (Mate 10 Lite) by Huawei.

  • Guys don't underestimate j8. Well a low res. Screen doesn't do users satisfaction but, it will reduce GPU processing. So it will perform better than one in fhd in SD 625 or above.

  • A6+ or J8? And why? Thanks

  • It got a very bright camera that for sure.

  • Helio p60 >>>>>>>>>> SD 450

  • Does it have a proximity sensor ???

  • The J8 has features the S9 does not, of those are the features you want, decision made

  • of corse s9 is better and the price is higher

  • Try to read a full conversation, not a single message!!!!! Try to read the message he answers to... The first message asks Oppo with helio P60 or J8 SD450. Someone answers Oppo because of P60 He denies and said Snapdragon are better than Mediatek...without comparing models! Without arguments...in the case of SD450 and P60, he's wrong. It's a technical fact... I don't expect someone who judge things by their brand to be able to read a full conversation!! Try some of the worst 64bits ever...they come from Qualcomm... S410 with cortex A53 that underperform by 15% S615 or the Octacore that performs like quadcore

  • J8 definitely better, even Geekranjit is praising J8 camera, Redmi Note Pro is a big no no.

  • Another overpriced Samsung phone...for people who prefer brand over features...still no Compass & Gyro sensor...

  • Guys please read and understand what he tried to said to us.

  • S9 is much better but much more pricey(u can buy 3 j8s for 1). So it's up to you if you want features or price

  • Hey guys which one is better please help me to choose between j8 galaxy s9. I'm facing dilemma.. Thanks

  • Not true dual volte,

  • Redmi note 5 pro

  • Does this have heating problem and is it good mobile for games

  • samsung J8 is much batter

  • Which better j8 or xiomi note 5 pro

  • Bro j8 is more batter then j6 camera quality is more batter j8 so choice is your but I suggest j8

  • which one is better an samsung J8 or an vivo V9? please help me friends....

  • Which one is better samsung J8 or vivo V9?? Please help me people......

  • guys a wanna buy this phone am confused which should i buy j6 2018 or j8 2018 please tell me thanks in advance?

  • You think cortex A53 on SD450 can beat cortex A73? You're crazy... P60 is far better than SD450 on : CPU by far...about twice the single core perf and 50%better multicore GPU...maybe 60-70% RAM management with lpddr4x, nearly twice the bandwidth! UFS2.1 storage far better than eMMC (about 3 Time on sequential read and 5 Time on Random read) Triple ISP for camera management, vs dual ISP Dual core Tensilica P6 DSP for AI, this one should perform better than Hexagon DSP on SD835 (no joke!...280GMac/s, close to Apple A11's AI) There's not a single thing better on 450! P60 is close to SD660. Some things are better on SD660 (bluetooth 5.0 and LTE), many things are close (CPU, RAM, Storage, GPU on avanced API like Vulkan), some things are better on P60 (12nm process, AI)

  • j7 pro is better

  • Well difference in price between A6 2018 and J8 is approx. Rs 1000. A6 and J8 both have a 720p screen which is bad for this size phones. I own a J7 2016 that why I can tell you that screen is not so clear if compared to other phones like redmi note 4 and others. But body of A6 is more good than J8. J8 comes with dual camera setup and camera seems to be good than A6. A6 has Exynos7870 as processor which is also in my phone, it is a 2 years old processor and now outdated. J8 has snapdragon 450 which is a bit better than Exynos7870. J8 also has more battery capacity. I think you should choose Galaxy J8.

  • Is Samsung Galaxy J8 better than Samsung Galaxy J7 Pro?

  • what is better oppo f7 or j8

  • Oppo f7

  • Antutu score of p60 is 130000 and sd 450 is 75000

  • I suggest you to take J8 cause it has both bigger battery and screen size. Yes The body is plastic but you can easily change the feel with a better premium cover

  • J8 is better option because of snap Dragon chip

  • Haha haha nice joke. Snap Dragon is much powerful then mediatech

  • should I take a j8 or an a6 because the characteristics of the two telephones are but their characteristic are pretty similiar but the screen of j8 is 6.0 and the screen of the a6 is 5.6 but the j8 is made in plastic while that of the a6 is made of metal but the price of the a6 vas to be surely more expensive

  • OPPO bcoz helio P60 is VERY powerful than SD450

  • Which one is best, J8 or C7 pro? Please suggest me

  • oppo f7 is far better than it.

  • Which is better Mediatek helio p60 (Oppo f7) or snapdragon 450 (Samsung j8) Help me please...

  • No, it's not as good as a SD820 running QHD

  • yes thats true volte

  • MMMM

  • if it is average phone for general users, prices should also be average

  • You can use 4g VoLTE in either of one sim, but not both sim at a time

  • No it is not Dual 4g VoLTE , either one Can be used in 4g Dual 4g is supported by MT p60 (real me1), SD636 (Redmi Note 5 pro, asus zen phone max)

  • It is dual 4g mobail

  • Yes

  • Bezels are surprisingly even smaller than the A8 , though

  • Honestly...SD450 is almost on par with SD625

  • HD+ for a 6.0" display...wow

  • No it does not have IR blaster.

  • SD 450 on HD+ good for gaming it's like SD820 on QHD display.

  • does it IR Bluster?

  • Joke of the year

  • samsung j8 network supperted 4g volte?

  • Thanks

  • Samsung budget & midrange segment already flop

  • absolutely

  • Even display is not full hd+.... It's HD+.......At 19k approx Indian rupees in 2018!lol... Samsung is looting us in the name of brand sake only!

  • Even my 2 years old MI MAX cpu and gpu are better than this newest smartphone in a little price than this phone...lol (15k Indian Ruppes-Mi max:::2 years back)..... (19k approx Indian Rupees-Galaxy j8::::just now)....

  • No special features, and than processor was not good

  • Hahaha...fanboy spotted ! sd450 better than sd660? great jokes

  • over all mobile is look good and we dont need to compare with other mobile because every mobile has its different specs and quality and about price this mobile is worth it. because NOKIA 7 PLUS SDM660 is old generation and atleast this mobile gave SDM450 is good for gaming experiences so its worth to take it.

  • But when you can get another phone at a lower price than the J8 which still does everything better than the j8, is this phone even worth it? Brand conscious people can get Nokia and Motorola phones like the 6.1 and g5s plus respectively. Cheaper than the j8 yet much better.

  • Samsung must change plastic body to aluminium body with front gorilla glass.Samung must add magnetic compass sensor,gyro,other sensors and nfc. Removable battery is better than unremovable battery . No need for dual rear camera one 16 mp rear camera and one 16 mp front camera is enough.

  • I have used lots of non branded Chinese phones which definitely are good but when it's Samsung or Apple there is a huge quality difference. Battery power and heat dissipation play a huge role. Very high end processors generate heat plus battery drain. No matter which chipset you use the average battery size is 3500 mah as of now. Samsung' puts lot if thought in packing specs especially after it's testing failures which brought down their brand name badly. So now carefully they try to cope with the compatibility of the hardware and software. I am a hardware engineer myself and this is my opinion. Hence I definitely prefer Samsung atleast in the last 1 year. For an average person who uses the phone for a lot for talking chatting and a little bit of entertainment this is best with great battery. For gamers definitely not worth it.

  • Yes bro

  • You should buy this phone only if you are a die hard Samsung fan and can't live without it ... or if you have surplus money ... because other than these reasons there is absolutely no other reason why one should buy it when there are far better phones available in the same price range ... This phone does not offer anything exceptional but costs more ...

  • *Going by the trend, all devices from Samsung except the S and the note series are flops*

  • another flop device from Samsung

  • its not about china phone or korea phone. why i pay more money for old features. this phone should priced at 5000 rupees.

  • sd 625 priced at 9999 where as sd 450 at 18990 extremely laughable

  • Absolutely right.

  • True, but then the J8 doesn't make up for the subpar processor. Plastic body, no FHD display, no 4K/1080p@60fps, no gyro, etc. 18k for this phone is indeed laughable. For the same cash you can get the Nokia 6.1, which is vastly superior in every aspect. Even cheaper phones like the G5S Plus are far better.

  • SD 450 isn't older and 18K for it is joke then you looks like china phone use who cannot afford samsung. Your redmi note 5 , Redmi 5 and new Redmi 6 pro all uses SD625 which is 2 year old processor. Just because price is less you can't tell than SD625 is better. China can only give more processor for price but all the rest things are in branded phones only

  • J7 pro at 19K has same processor used in 10K J7 2015 phone , its worst chipset and not meant for 1080P display. Use any moderate to severe task you will notice , using only whatsapp makes even a 5K phone looks faster

  • Weird ! It has HD display. Samsung made J7 Pro with FHD display. Now it is for sure the next variant of J8 will come.

  • when xiaomi and asus is using Snapdragon 636 (one of the latest processors) for Redmi Note 5 Pro and Max Pro M1 respectively. Then why shall I choose J8? in hardware side u r getting 6GB ram with same 64GB ROM in less than 1k-3k. then why shall I choose J8?

  • drawbacks of j8, no dual volte standby, no full hd display, no fhd recording at 60fps, no gyroscope, sd 450 older processor. THIS SMARTPHONE HAS NOTHING. 18000 INR for this phone is extremely laughable.

  • go for redmi note 5 pro or zenfone max pro m1... samsung will continue making wtf products :(

  • snapdragon 450 and 18 k price wtf

  • J series is good mid range phones but j7 pro is best in this segment I used more than 10 month feels superb no lag no hangs

  • Its not just CPU tht counts. Nd samsung is always way better thn xiaomi nd others

  • Metal body or plastic ??

  • You should wait for j4 pro, j6 pro and j8 pro they will be superps phones like j3 , and j5 pro and j7 pro

  • Not all j series. My j7 pro is superb!

  • what are you expect in 250 EUR..

  • Really samsung? Snapdragon 450?

  • starts from that J series

  • am starting to be disappoint with Samsung brand!! its already 2018 but they are creating crappy phone from 2016 :( in so many Samsung phone released you can count on your hand what is the only that is useful and have a decent specs Samsung wake up its already 2018

  • Man, every year Samsung midrangers get WORSE

  • Some users do not have better CPU. This device is just for daily usage for ordinary people.

  • Snapdragon 450 at such a hefty price , u could rather choose better smartphone brand like xiaomi or Asian many more with better specs better processor at a affordable price.

  • J8+ is coming

  • Let the people buy what they want to buy, we don't need your advice!

  • 16 MP (f/1.7) + 5 MP (f/1.9)

  • the phone above is a j8 so if samsung was to consider making a plus version it would be a j8 plus.

  • Very bad. Plastic body not aluminium , no front gorilla glass, , no nfc, no compass sensor, no gyro , no thermometer sensor and many other very bad things. Change these things .

  • That would make it a J6 Plus Plus ?

  • yup,the processors is way lower and the price way too expensive than xiaomi.I think samsung is not good as the past although now they release many model but not with high specs.

  • Nokia x6 will be much better than all of these

  • Samsung must get rid of managers who order plastic body , no magnetic sensor compass and many very bad things.They will destroy Samsung.I guess that they are not engineers.

  • Nokia X6, Redmi Note 5 Pro have the best processor, and the Processor that J8 has cannot be compared to them so, you should rather buy x6, if you can afford it, because it has the best processor, looks, nokia build quality, j8 is rather cheap and has a really bad processor for the price, moreover it would be lacking neccessary sensors, the x6 is best option.

  • no one.

  • which mobile is best between samsung j8, nokia x6, mi note 5 pro. which one is good ?

  • i do hope they have a j8 plus as well

  • I love samsung phones and im sorry to say that this phone is a huge dissapointment. I was eagerly waiting for this phone, the 720p panel is a dealbreaker for me. I dont about other countries but in india data has become really good and cheap , i pay 800rs(10 us$) for 30 mbps unlimited connection and i watch youtube a lot so not having a 1080p panel is really bad .

  • They should manufacture the Samsung Galaxy J8 with aluminum body, since it is a device that is manufactured this year, but they do it with a plastic body and that lowers its range, even though its internal memory is 64GB higher than a Samsung Galaxy J7 Pro.

  • Another cheap guy spotted. Comparing top brand to cheapest china phone.

  • Another flop phone is going to be launched! At current time at least snapdragon 636 is must. And battery should be 5000mah. Sensor should be ir, magnetometer, gyroscope, proximity, accelrometer, 2 sims with dedicated sd card. All this should be under rs15000. Also dual rear + front camera is required. Otherwise, it is wise not to launch any mobile phone.

  • Oh my god. Much of it beats up the S9+

  • But maximum people wants that u dont want so only your choice is not important

  • Pixel density not satisfied for its costing

  • One lack sir . Rs. 1,00,000/-

  • i hope in 2020 samsung galaxy all mobile under Rs 10,000 . including samsung galaxy NOTE 10 & Samsung galaxy S10

  • Is this available in the Philippines?

  • Not everybody wants a brick in their pocket...give me a light compact 5" screen phone with no bezel and good camera...please.

  • Which better to buy .. J8 or Huawei mate 10 lite ?

  • Old prosser

  • J6 and J8 are the cheap versions of A6 and A6+...Too bad the screen resolution of J8 is quite low, and it is heavy at 191g. But the specs of J8 are nearly the same as A6+, and people love huge screen now. So J8 will probably be a big success if priced 300 dollars max. Nice big cheap phone.

  • galaxy j7 pro 2017 full HD display 401 ppi & metal body galaxy J8 2018 only HD display 274 ppi & plastic body degrade to higher price foolish device..............

  • Never

  • WTF??? Not FULL HD for J8? Only 271 ppi???

  • one of the worst phone in the world j8 this have SD 450 slowest performance price 19K

  • Comparing samsung with Vivo Lol!!!!!!!!!!!! No one can beat the display, camera, and the design of it.

  • ok you are right

  • LOL really 274PPI pixel density?

  • Samsung must get rid of managers who order plastic body , no magnetic sensor compass and unremovable battery . They will destroy reputation of samsung .Also they will cause finacial loss

  • Good

  • No need . Another flop like j7 pro ..

  • I'm so excited for the release of Samsung's J8 :)

  • no NFC, plastic body and HD screen. Nokia 5.1 definitely better option

  • Samsung won't do that :(

  • Samsung should use the SD 660 SoC instead of 450 and a better gpu. Motorola uses SD 660 for its mid range mobiles like the G5s Plus. Apart from that all other features are good.

  • This Phone should have NFC like other previous Samsung galaxy J series.

  • The Front Design is like a Oneplus 5T

  • At least SD625 :(

  • No thanks!

  • Lol.. I tried the P20 Lite's Pro mode kinda cool but not as crisp as the J7 Pro which is dissapointing considering it has a advantage of having flexibilty but as I import it to a 4K monitor I see the difference...

  • Lol.. Galaxy J6 already equipped w/ E7870 therefore samsung should equipped with SD450 it would be better if SD636...

  • J series doesn't even have full Pro mode on camera app. Kinda disappointing, since Huawei has full Pro mode on every phone, even low end!

  • Expectations: Snapdragon 450 Reality: Exynos 7870 again :D

  • This isn't out yet, it's just rumored. The device is on it's way to be unveiled soon and hopefully it won't have these specs.

  • Samsung is becoming a joke now a days.... Galaxy J8 is midrange entry level device.. why the hell did you put s450 soc!!! People aren't going to buy this Crazy shit.. Nokia x6 and nokia 7plus is much better option

  • No . Don't except such things from Shame sung midrange ..

  • what? Snd450? lol

  • Whoever designs the phone has to look the user opinions in social pages. The mobile should cover majority peoples in this segment as per current market requirement, but its fail to reach that level. Still u can sell it, but cant beat the competitors with this release.

  • In Samsung Galaxy J8, Slow Motion video recording feature available or not?? Kindly confirm

  • It has it's selling points but I think you can find better value in older phones, or risk it with other OEMs.

  • A little better product from Samsung J series line up. But it will be much better. Updates are - 1. Fingerprint sensor 2. Infinity display 3. Dual camera Need to update but ignored by Samsung are - 1. Processor, why a degraded Snapdragon 450? Why not 625 or 626? Big ignoretion by Samsung. 2. Why not given most sensors? Especially Gyroscope, Compass, Led notification sensor. Why Samsung is so close fisted about sensors? 3. Why not display is full hd? 4. Why not metal body? We want that Samsung must be compete with Chinese smartphone makers. Price is double but feature is half not healthy for Samsung lovers. As a Samsung lover I am also thinking about buying Chinese smartphones. It will be pocket friendly and full of features. No one want to buy a new phone with many backdated features.

  • My S3 survived for almost 5 years of using and finally switched to a new phone. It was a good run for a small phone that I stopped using because it finally stopped receiving security updates.

  • We all keep mobile for 2 years and the technology is changing so much that we start looking for those after 2-2.5 yrs of usage. I am using A7 for past 2 yrs and have not faced any issue till now. Prior to that i was using S4 mini for 3.5 yrs and faced absolutely no prob for 3 yrs, later it became obselete and i had to sell it. In a nutshell if our phone runs smoothly for even 2 yrs we have made full use of money. Who cares what happens afterwards.

  • They should've atleast used usb type c

  • Samsung is really good at its screen resolution, Amoled display is one of my favourite on Samsung devices.

  • Hello, I would like to suggest Xiaomi or Redmi if u r searching for a budget gaming partner for ur son, their performance is much better.

  • I need this phone :3

  • Are you 4 real samsung 2018 and you still using snapdragon 450 you r crazy

  • yes

  • Does this support OTG ?

  • Every products have thier demand, actually im looking for such of mid range spec smartphone for my son just for gaming, youtube & social propose , its just EU 250 & i would like say good job samsung.

  • when will this phone available in Philippines?

  • Sounds reasonable. I'll wait for the next A series.

  • samsung isn't crap, maybe year 2017 the J7 pro and A5 wasn't so good, but this year they launched J8. j8 has pretty good dual camera (my opinion), it has good battery life (screen is 720p with 35oomAh battery life), it has sAMOLED display, and it has snapdragon 450 with adreno 506 which is snapdragon 625's rival (i think). and it costs not much from j7 pro. so I think its doing a good job

  • Samung must get rid of managers who order plastic body , no compass and non removable battery.

  • This phone is good ?

  • You will see those problems in the future. Don't be too defendant, cause you're like a Fanboy for real.

  • i am using a j7 2016 ...its very fine nw almost two years completed not a single error.. my friend used a gr5 mini... he sent it 2 time for repair center in 6 months after purchasing... now he is using j7 pro 64gb ... he did not face any problems... i dont knw y people speak bad about samsung ....

  • So you're saying that Huawei phones do not last longer than Crapsung? Shame on you! So many people switched to Huawei because Crapsung's issues didn't solve yet until the recent years. Software crashes, RAM management issues, and cartoonic icons and everything else. Hey, before you reply that I'm a hater, I owned a Galaxy S3 before. Those reasons are still visible until now since my mom is using a J7 Pro.

  • middle class people cant spend every 1 1/2 years spending like 200 euro... must think and purchase branded product with quality even if it cost around euro 250 to euro 280 without wasting there hard earning on chinese cheap products...i dont y people promoting chinese products

  • So what? You want to pay Crapsung for higher money if you actually get the same phone with better specs? And also, phones don't last forever. People buy phones 2 years or less. Enthusiasts study more on the internals that is bang for your buck than paying more with lesser expectations. Think about it.

  • yeah if u want a poor display quality and poor camera quality purchase chinese product where they shows u huge spects for low price... branded products are always better for our life.. branded products brings always a new technology and good quality..

  • sndrgn 636 vs 450 .. compared .. there are some differents and 636 is good... but both chipsets are 14nm and same clock speed 1.8GHz .so i think ...

  • I won't gonna pay this phone for the Super AMOLED display. Don't fool me, Crapsung!

  • OOhhh Really!!!!! Get a Life, I have compared both the phones. Samsung Display is way better then Xiaomi, The camera of samsung is the best one than the note 5 pro. And if u want to know about SD450 have a look on it.

  • i checked note 5 pro its not good than j8 where they used IPS LCD display with poor display quality and j8 use sAmoled display ....camera where the apperture (2.2) for main rear camera with very old technology .... j8 use (f/1.7) .. can note 5pro capture a clear image in low light than j8 ????????😆

  • can anyone point a good phone euro 250 or less with these spec * sAmoled display, 4GB 64GB , 16MP (f/1.7)+ 5MP (f/1.9) and frontcam 16MP (f/1.9) see the camera appeture (f/1.7) i think a very good camera to shoot in low light...

  • even vivo v9 youth use the same chispet sd450 and sell for 260 euro.. then y samsung cannot use it ?????

  • 250 euro i think its very good phone... can anyone point a phone less than 250 euro with sAmoled & bezzel less display with same spects or more than j8... i am using j7 core . its wonderful for viewing and battery consumption is very good.. i am waiting for this phone to release....

  • For the front look, i like it better than any other 18:9 phones. For the specs, Samsung should opt for SD625 instead of SD450, either way is a no. Better get the note5pro!

  • Even redmi 5 with $150 price tag use this processor. SAMSUNG IS GOING DOWN

  • Grats 250 eurm for a phone which xiaomi can sell for 150 and still make a profit. Samsung lost its heart, mind, body and soul and now they sold even its customers to other competitors.

  • Oh look, another big phone. Samsung is going to lose so much demographic over the next year...

  • Why plastic body not metal with front gorilla glass?!.Why no compass sensor ?!.Why non removable battery?!.Who orders these very bad things ?.Samsung must change these bad things and fire who orders them .

  • samsung bro !!!!

  • Pix density only 253ppi

  • Yes I think Only 1.8 ghz processer is plus point Rest nothing. They failed to under stand youth. No fast chatg8ng or quick charge also Moto g6 Nokia x6 is better

  • price 19K no full HD display ,no gorilla glass, no aluminium body, wrost sd 450 processor & gpu ,no 4K recording ,no slow motion video ,low ppi one of the waste products this is the end of the Samsung J series

  • I think a HD+ display and Snapdragon 450 is going to be a good combo. The 450 can pull a FullHD+ display in A6+ so with half the pixels its gonna be a peppy performer and also boost battery life. It's a good move but Samsung could have added an auto brightness, NFC and secondary Mic also at this price point or else reduce the price by 3000 Rupees. Waiting for launch to see full features.

  • Nokia7+ is best

  • Not a good phone chipset power is low, no usb type C, no screen resolution is good.

  • Samsung... you could have make it more powerful with a high quality snapdragon processor... SD 450 is really disappointing...

  • Resolution is poor

  • a good phone has now released ...i think now chinese brands sales will reduce in future..some were speaking about the chipset... please read and understand.. Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 is the First 14nm 600-tier Snapdragon Processor While the QUALCOMM SNAPDRAGON 450 is the First 14nm 400-tier Snapdragon Processor. ... Snapdragon 625 & Snapdragon 450 both have Octa-core 64-bit ARM® Cortex™-A53 CPU. For Snapdragon 625 it could go up to 2.0GHz while up to 1.8GHz for Snapdragon 450.

  • Great Samsung. Real Infinity Display With Super Amoled Display. Where Now Chiness Phone Have To Go......!!!

  • atleast its own exynos 7885

  • I love Samsung phones a lot but just wait a second.... Snapdragon 450!!! Means are you guyzz crazy. What is the use of this processor standing in the year 2k18? Its a 3 years old processor. Please, Samsung come up with the better range of processors for mid-range phones. Highly disappointed!!!!!!

  • Amazing phone I liked

  • Yeah you are right, it will double the speed..

  • Plastic phones are best in LTE and wifi signal reception specially in weak signal location... Nice one samsung, keep it up...by the way how about using mtk p60 or sd 636??

  • Love IT

  • Wait... Snapdragon 450 in 2018... ha ha ha. We know that machine which make them is still working but trash it please, you ruining peoples life with that. Managers, please use this phone as your primary phone if you think it is still good for us.

  • Dearest gsmArena experts. Don't you think that Samsung,s kindergarten children have made J8 and J6 as their hobbies in Samsung workshops !!!? Thanks to answering !

  • J8 plus j805G ?????? This mobile is super EMOLED FHD+ .

  • love it

  • A9 pro 2016 is many times better than J8

  • Utter waste J8. Samsung J7 pro and A9 pro 2016 are far more better than the J8 crap.

  • 720P will let it crush any game you want to run and it comes with 64GB lots of storage and a huge battery that will last longer than usual because of that 720p display.

  • 720p in 2018? Are you F*c*ing kidding me?

  • Samsung is a company full of jokes their new J series are proof of that.

  • Snapdragon 450 wow samsung you rock. You could get two redmi 5 phones with same processor . Lol

  • snapdragon 450? samsung will fail.. cant compete with lower prices like xiaomi

  • Light sensor, compass sensor cost 60% of total phone cost, that's why samsung not including these 2 sensors in Rs 18000/- phone...

  • snapdragon 450 one of the ugly processer at least SD 636 or 625 so Samsung you move very wrongggg

  • Why not a corner? 😐

  • Xiaomi Redmi Note 5(5Pro in India) has better specs, better design, better display, better comms technologies, better battery than this piece of crap and only cost two third the price. Samsung did really shot themselve in the leg with this handset.

  • 274 PPI display.. Very bad ..

  • so this is how the new j series will look from now on hmmm not bad it would have been better if they had a 6 gb ram also but still not bad thumb up samsung:)

  • So is this phone released only in India or worldwide?

  • Needs to pure Android when specs..
