Comparison review
The Samsung Galaxy J8 has a global score of 76.7, which is just a bit better than the LG K52's 76 overall score.

Samsung Galaxy J8's design is a little lighter and a little thinner than LG K52, although it was released many years before.
The LG K52 has a bit better display than Samsung Galaxy J8, because although it has a bit less pixels per inch of display, it also counts with a little bit larger display and a bit higher resolution of 720 x 1600 pixels. LG K52 has a much greater memory capacity for apps and games than Galaxy J8, and although they both have the same 64 GB internal memory capacity, the LG K52 also has a SD memory card expansion slot that admits up to 1,95 TB.
LG K52 has just a little better hardware performance than Galaxy J8. They have the same RAM memory amount and a Octa-Core CPU. The LG K52 shoots a bit better videos and photos than Galaxy J8, because although it has a tinier aperture which is worse for low light photography and videos, and they both have the same video definition and the same video frame rates, the LG K52 also counts with a back facing camera with much more megapixels and a much bigger back camera sensor taking way higher quality pictures and videos.
