The Ultimate Review
The Samsung Galaxy J4+ is a device in the budget range with some good features and decent hardware. The device is fairly price and offers a big 6.0 inch screen.
The cameras take good pictures but the night photography suffers a bit and you can see some noise and grain in the shots.
The battery life on the device is good and lasts for a day and a half with moderate usage.
Buy this device if you are a fan of Samsung otherwise there are much better devices in the market that offer better features in the same price range.
