A unique feature of the presented new products is their dual front camera with a resolution of 16 MP (F1.9) and 8 MP (F1.9), which allows you to take clear and vivid self-portraits both during the day and at night. Fans of artistic effects should appreciate the Live Focus feature, thanks to which you can adjust the background blur in the photo during the photo process or after – in the gallery. In addition, selfies can always be decorated with stickers or retouched in Beauty mode.

The main 16-megapixel camera has an F1.7 light-sensitive lens and allows you to take detailed and bright pictures even in low light conditions.

Both new items are technically identical, differing only in the size of the diagonal of the installed displays: 5.6-inch in Galaxy A8 (2018) and 6-inch in Galaxy A8 + (2018), while the screen resolution remains unchanged – 1080 × 2220 pixels (aspect ratio 18.5: 9).

In addition to everything, both models support the Always On Display function, so that their owner can instantly receive information just by looking at the screen, without having to unlock the smartphone. And support for Magnetic Secure Transmission (MST) and Near Field Communication (NFC) technologies in Galaxy A8 (2018) and A8 + (2018) smartphones allows them to be used to pay for purchases almost everywhere instead of bank cards.

The Galaxy A8 (2018) and A8 + (2018) smartphones will go on sale from January 1, 2018.

The suggested retail price is:

  • Samsung Galaxy A8: 34,990 rubles.
  • Samsung Galaxy A8 +: 37,990 rubles.
