**Samsung Galaxy J8** is over all a great device at this price range. It is a mid-range smartphone. The cameras are very good and with dual cameras it becomes great. Even it got a front flash where u can adjust the intensity of the flash according to need or keep it in auto. The processor should have been of Snapdragon’s 600 series but **J8** got only Snapdragon 450 which may be a con for this device. The battery is good in this device, for larger screen and Super AMOLED display a huge battery is required which is present in this device.
