Samsung has revealed that the Milky way J6 and Galaxy J8 have collectively sold more than two meg units in Republic of india since they went on sale. Samsung isn't assigning individual figures to either device, merely we're guessing the Galaxy J6 was the more popular model, partly because it went on sale a month ahead of the Milky way J8.

Galaxy J6 and Galaxy J8 hitting it large in India

The Galaxy J6 is indeed ane of Samsung'southward best affordable Android phones in recent years, one that we tin can easily recommend. The Milky way J8 doesn't offer as much value, equally you volition find out in our upcoming review. Both devices do stand out thanks to the Infinity displays, however. Chinese OEMs were quick to switch to the so-called all-screen pattern for their budget phones in Republic of india, and Samsung didn't accept long to counter those with its own offerings. These phones as well get a few Bharat-specific features, similar the ability to respond to SMS and WhatsApp letters while watching a video and the Samsung Mall app, which acts as a one-stop shop for various popular online retail websites.

It's unclear if the Galaxy J6 and J8 had a major role in helping Samsung recapture its share in India. Since the Galaxy J8 was released nearly a month later the Galaxy J6, it'south likely the latter had a bigger hand. Samsung too says the Milky way A6 and Galaxy A6+ have seen "every bit buoyant need," which is rather surprising considering neither phone is priced well enough to be truly bonny to consumers in a price-sensitive market place similar India.
