It wasn’t the most orthodox unveiling, but the
Galaxy J4+ and Galaxy J6+ are official. Though if you ask us those should have
been called the J4+ and J4++.
Both phones have 6” screens with 720 x 1,480px
resolution and both are powered by a quad-core processor (1.4GHz, possibly the
Exynos 7570 Quad from the Galaxy J4). Both have 3,300mAh batteries and both run
Android 8.1 Oreo.
The two phones diverge in terms of memory - the
Galaxy J6+ comes with 3/4GB of RAM and 32/64GB of storage. The Galaxy J4+ has
2/3GB of RAM and 16/32GB of storage.
The Samsung Galaxy J6+ has a dual camera on the rear
– 13+5MP – and an 8MP selfie camera. In both cases there’s a reasonably bright
f/1.9 aperture. The J4+ has a more modest setup with a single 13MP camera on
the back and a 5MP selfie cam.
Beyond that, the specs are identical, including the
dimensions and weight. The connectivity too, starting with the LTE Cat. 4, to
2.4GHz Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.2, positioning (GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou) and optional
NFC (region dependent).
The Galaxy J6+ will have a fingerprint reader on the
side, whereas for the Galaxy J4+ this is another region dependent feature -
only North American units will get it.
So, what are you getting compared to the non-plus
models of these phones? Well, bigger screen and bigger battery on both and the
dual camera of the J6+. Note that the Galaxy J6 has an octa-core processor,
however.
