Editorial report

Cubot J8 2 GB / 16 GB / Global technical sheet

The Cubot J8 suits someone looking for a compact, lightweight phone for basic tasks; its main trade-off is a 3,100 mAh battery, which has less capacity than that of most phones of its time.

At 144 g, it is among the lightest phones of its time. Its 5.5-inch IPS LCD has an 87.2% screen-to-body ratio, better than most, but its 192 ppi pixel density is among the lowest. Android 10, 2 GB of RAM and 16 GB of storage make for a basic configuration. It supports two Nano-SIM cards in Dual SIM Dual Standby mode, has a removable battery and includes a 3.5 mm audio jack.

The rear camera's 13 MP resolution is lower than that of most phones launched around the same time; the front camera is 8 MP. Its AnTuTu score of 41,350 is among the weakest of its time, as is its performance overall. The phone itself also ranks among the weakest of that period, with connectivity and battery capacity worse than most. Its NeoScore is 2.3. This is a fit for buyers who prioritize a small, light handset and straightforward features, and can accept limited battery capacity, storage and performance.
