We recently heard that about the new Samsung Galaxy
A8 and Galaxy A 8 Plus smartphones, these handsets are the new versions of the
Galaxy A5 and Galaxy A7. Samsung is expected to launch these two new handsets
early next year.
The handsets recently appeared in a Samsung User
Manual which was spotted by WinFuture and the manual revealed some more
information about the two handsets. We recently saw a leaked photo of the new
Galaxy A8 Plus.
We have some information on the specifications of
the two devices, the handsets will come with 4GB of RAM as standard, there will
apparently be another version of the handset with 6GB of RAM. The devices will
also come with dual SIM card slots and will apparently be powered by a Samsung
Exynos 7885 processor.
Other specifications on the Samsung Galaxy A8 and
Galaxy A8 Plus will include a 16 megapixel front facing camera for Selfies and
video calls and a 16 megapixel rear camera. Both devices are said to come with
android 7.1 Nougat.
There are a couple of possibilities on when Samsung
will announce their new Galaxy A8 and A8 Plus smartphones. We could see them at
CES 2018 in January along with the Samsung Galaxy X. Or they may turn up at
Mobile World Congress in February along with the Galaxy S9 and S9 Plus.
