Samsung Galaxy J8 2018: Pros & Cons

Pros
The Samsung Galaxy J8 has an excellent rear and front-facing camera. Its display is good for outdoor usage, thanks to the AMOLED technology. The smartphone also has the best-looking, and most feature-packed UI among its competitors.
Cons
In spite of being a mid-range smartphone, the Galaxy J8 comes with an entry-level processor. Due to the lack of processing power, the Galaxy J8 does not have a smooth performance. Although the display is good for outdoor usage, it has a lower resolution, leading to pixelation on the screen.
Verdict
The Samsung Galaxy J8 is not a bad smartphone altogether. However, other smartphones in the same price range offer more than the Galaxy J8. I think you should consider Redmi Note 6 Pro instead.
