Samsung keeps its devices as premium-feeling as possible with the glass design of the Galaxy J4+ but the Realme C1 still looks better overall with its thinner bezels and reflective back despite being polycarbonate.
Expect better performance out of the Realme device with its updated octa-core CPU. But do keep in mind that the Galaxy device has the option to go up to 3GB/32GB for a smoother experience.
Photography can go either way but the Realme C1 has the advantage of a second depth sensor on the back.
Lastly, the Realme C1 caps off with 4230mAh battery.
The Galaxy J4+ continues to retail for Php6,990 while the Realme C1 saves you Php2,000 at an estimated Php4,990. With that said, the Realme phone outlasts the Galaxy device, not only by price point but also the overall experience.
