The Samsung Galaxy A8 leaked several times and its full specs and features almost revealed ahead of its launch.
It was first rumored that the device will debut in China on July 17, but GSM Arena claims that the Samsung Galaxy A8 has been spotted in a brochure in Korea. Though its official launch is yet to be announced, the series of leaked photos and hands-on video sparks a looming release.
The Samsung Galaxy A8 was also reportedly on the testing phase in India as it was listed on Zauba.
Since it already passed TENAA and FCC, document listings revealed that the Samsung device with model number SM-A8000 will sport a large 5.7-inch, as opposed to the previous leaked of a 5.5-inch Super AMOLED display with 1080 x 1920 Full HD resolution. (via Yibada)
It will also sport a whopping 16MP rear camera and 5MP front snapper, and will be powered by a 64-bit Qualcomm Snapdragon 615 chip coupled with a 2GB of RAM.
Other notable features include 3,050mAh battery and LTE Cat. 6 with VoLTE, and DMB for its network connectivity.
As for its design, it looks like an improved Samsung Galaxy S6 with 'ounded corners with a wide radius, while the metal frame seems to be a mixture of the designs of the Galaxy S6 and the A-series,' Latino Post wrote referring to series of leaked photos.
"The side bezel s of the phone are very thin, while the bottom bezel is slightly thicker. There is also a bigger home button to fit the fingerprint reader properly. The rear portion of the smartphone has a pearl white finish and features the usual camera, speaker and flash layout as other Samsung phones. However, the speaker and flash exchanged positions."
Meanwhile, its price has been listed in Vietnam by an online retailer for VND 10,990,000, while a leaked promotional teaser from Malaysia has revealed the price there to be MYR 1,888. Both prices roughly equals to $500.(via IB Times)
