Samsung Galaxy A8 2018 Review

The Samsung Galaxy A8, one of the most successful models of the mid-segment, will be reviewed!

You can find all the details of Samsung's new mid-segment smartphone Galaxy A8 2018.

The Samsung Galaxy A8, the company's latest mid-to-upper mid-range smart phone, took its place in the market recently. A8, which is located just below the S and Note series in the flagship segment, is also recognized as an important device by bringing the 18.5: 9 aspect ratio to this segment.

In addition to this, let's also say that you have a good camera experience and a successful screen. The 64 GB model is now available on the market with a price tag of $ 2470. We will see if Galaxy A8 deserves this price or not.

Design

We can say that the Samsung Galaxy A8 gets design tips from the company's top segment Galaxy S8. But when we look at the screen, we can easily see that the Infinite Display is not as infinite as the Galaxy S8. The display does not look right-to-left, but it's still one of the rare models that offers a 18.5: 9 aspect ratio in the center segment.

Before that, we saw the LG Q6 as one of the models that offered a 18: 9 aspect ratio. Let's also say that besides the Galaxy A8, the design of the LG Q6 will not be read. The body of the A8 has dimensions of 149 x 70 x 8.4 mm. As we have already mentioned, the screen frames are relatively long ago. Thanks to the curved rear edges of the phone, the device is comfortable to hold in the palm and looks nice.

Let's also say that glassware is preferred on the front and back sides. It should also be noted that the design of the rear part of the phone is not as premium as the Galaxy S8.

There is no power button on the right side of the phone; sound buttons are located on the left side of the phone and their access is very easy to use because it coincides with the thumb and middle finger. The speakerphone is also located on the right edge, above the power key. So when you use the phone horizontally or vertically, you will not turn off the speaker; it is very important that the loudspeaker does not turn off, especially when playing in horizontal position or watching videos. Let's say the phone does not have a stereo speaker and is a mono speaker.

At the bottom of the phone we also see the headset and USB-C input, with a microSD card on the top and a SIM card drawer on the side. All of them are very nicely thought out except for one thing being positioned. The only problem; the fingerprint sensor is placed on the side of the camera as it is on the GalaxyS8 and Note 8 and is not specified by an external frame. So when you take your finger to the sensor, you touch and dirty the camera. In addition to the smudge of the camera, it is difficult to find the sensor with your fingertip, since the location of the sensor is not clear.

Instead of using fingerprints, you can also use PIN and face recognition security systems. Face recognition is not as secure as the iPhone X, but we can easily say that it works pretty fast. It is also worth mentioning that this system is occasionally repeated according to light conditions. Samsung

Operating System and Display

The Samsung Galaxy A8 is extremely attractive on the screen because of its 18.5: 9 aspect ratio. Thus, premium segments are included in this segment. Samsung has included a resolution on this screen that we can call 1080 × 2220 pixels or FHD +. Of course, Super AMOLED is the preferred panel. The screen does not look at the admiral level models for color and saturation.

The pixel density of the screen is 441 ppi. The screen size of the Galaxy A8 is 5.6 inches. As you know, there is also a model A8 +. Its screen is 6 inches in size. I would like to emphasize that the standard model is the ideal size and screen ratio between these two.

Android 7.1.1 comes out of the phone box with Nougat. The phone will receive the Android 8.0 Oreo update, but we would like the box to go directly with Oreo. The phone has Samsung Experience 8.5 interface. In terms of software, there is no difference in appearance and use of the phone from the company's top-level phones. The phone also features always-on display.

There is also a virtual assistant in Bixby, although it is not a useful one in our country. Not to mention design, but let's also say that the device is protected against water and tobacco with IP68 certificate. The phone can remain under water for up to 1.5 meters for 30 minutes.

Camera

Samsung Galaxy A8 has three cameras. At the back is a 16 megapixel camera, and at the front there are two cameras, one 8 megapixel and the other 16 megapixel. On this side, the Samsung Galaxy A8 is also placed between the models that place the dual camera array on the front instead of on the back. If we talk about the rear camera of the phone, we can make detailed shots in low light.

This extremely important medium-to-mid top segment model has a number of models with good low-light performance. In photos taken in automatic mode, the camera takes good care of it and as a result, it offers scene scenes in detail, well illuminated.

The front camera is extremely successful. You can also use the live focus feature on the front camera. Galaxy S8 is also available in the depth of the feature that has the effect of Bokeh is able to attract selfies. You can take advantage of the live focus feature in the scenes where the lighting conditions are the best. It is extremely difficult to use the effect in dimly lit environments.

In addition to these two features of the front camera, we have also proved that we have achieved very successful results. The Galaxy A8 is able to shoot very successful selfies without losing detail. One of the best front cameras on this subject is the Galaxy A8. The performance of the rear camera is also very good. Lastly, let's talk about video.

Unfortunately, this device can not record 4K video. The Galaxy A8 can shoot up to 2224x1080p with the rear camera.

Performance

In our last issue, let's talk about the hardware and performance of the device. The device has an Exynos 7885 processor manufactured by Samsung. The Cortex-A73 and Cortex-A53 chips with 4'er core can deliver power at frequencies of 2.2 GHz and 1.6 GHz. On the graphics chip side, the Mali-G71 is preferred. Exynos 7885, known as the best processor in the mid-segment, is capable of high performance. In the AnTuTu Benchmark test applied to the phone, the device succeeds in accumulating 117725 points and is able to leave behind other models in the same segment.

The device used 4 GB of RAM. With 32 GB and 64 GB storage options, you can increase the memory of your device up to 256 GB with the microSD card. The phone has a battery capacity of 3000 mAh. With this battery you can easily use everyday. Even if you do not use the phone very heavily, it will be possible to see the second day. In intensive use, the phone will consume the battery within 5 hours. In this regard, the device behaves in accordance with the segment.

Extremely generous with wireless connectivity, the Galaxy A8 also offers Bluetooth 5.0, 802.11 ac Wi-Fi support. In addition, the phone has mobile network support in the LTE category 11 class. It has 600 Mbps download speed and 75 Mbps download speed. The wireless charging feature is not available on the phone.

Finally, let's say you have an FM radio on the phone.
