Full Metal Body
Style meets functionality in the shape of the new Galaxy A8. Get your hands on its ultra-slim full metal body for a truly exceptional grip.
Brighter, Clearer Images
Equipped with a 16MP rear and 5MP front camera – both featuring f/1.9 aperture – the Galaxy A8 has all your photography and video needs covered. With the HDR function, you can capture brighter, clearer images even in low light conditions.
Long-lasting Battery
It may be ultra-slim, but the Galaxy A8 packs plenty of punch in the power department - its 3,050mAh capacity battery offers you to enjoy a wide range of media contents – such as movies, music, games and more – for even longer.
Hybrid SIM tray
Customise the way you use your phone with the Galaxy A8’s hybrid SIM tray, which lets you make use of a Nano USIM or a microSD card. Operate with two different phone numbers at once or add memory with a Micro SD card – the choice is yours!
Quick Camera Launch
Never miss out on another photo opportunity again. You can launch the Galaxy A8’s camera in just 0.9 seconds – or 1.7 seconds from sleep mode – by simply pressing the home button twice.
Fun Selfie Options
Taking a selfie has never been this much fun with the Galaxy A8. The Wide Selfie function gives you a huge 120° view and lets you get more people and landscape into your snaps – with the front camera. Use its Rear Cam Selfie function to automatically detect your face, allowing you to take incredible selfies with the rear camera.
Enhanced Security
Protect your private data with the Galaxy A8’s innovative touch sensor. A fingerprint scanner lets you enjoy safe and secure access to your most sensitive data needed for web log-ins, account verifications and payment-related pages.
Smart Manager
Stay up-to-date with a range of essential information on your device with the convenient Smart Manager app. Keep tabs on your battery usage, storage, RAM and anti-virus protection, and use the Quick Check function to optimise the way your Galaxy A8 works with a single touch.
