Samsung Galaxy A8 - User Reviews

  • Good battery no issues excellent phone I'm used from last three years.

  • over heating, very slow, very poor battery life... It's awful. I wasted my money

  • i suggest not to buy samsung galaxy a8. its mother-board gave a problem within a year i bought this..after repairing it did not function well.

  • This phone is a big disgrace to Samsung,over heating, very slow, very poor battery life... It's awful. I wasted my money

  • After a game or any usage with Internet, U can make a omlet easily. Heating is very high... And very poor battery life... Suddenly down to 20 from 50.

  • i beg anyone please dont buy this Samsung galaxy A8 phone because this phone many many problam and most problem bettery when my phone reach 20% than automatic stutdown

  • The latest update has turned the application symbols too colorful, with funny syplistic shape some times toy like symbols. The CLOSE ALL function does not allow to close one applucation at the time as used to be, not allowing to leave open just the ones you want.

  • Just got update 164MB. I thought version upgrade but it is not. Need version nougat.

  • its good or not can u suggest me

  • Last year, i just got A8 2015. Its good phone although 2gb ram. 2 issues I got is battery and network. Battery just die off about 60-30% something like that. I have no reason. Network also diffcult to find 4G. It always 3G/H+. Few weeks ago, I smash my phone 2 times on the table and the floor. Lcd just cracks but outside it remarkble. No cracks on outside screen but inside lot of damages. Now, my phone is still need to replace lcd & battery but problem is i have no money. Luckily, my phone is still on and sound chaging is on even LCD is still painful. Overroll, need to upgrade version nougat.

  • Today I got firmware update(174mb). Nothing changed though. Have u got the update yet

  • After pub g 2-3 mins u can literally make omlet,bake brades whatever u want. It gets up to 45degree and fps comes down to 5-7fps. Very less ram, no update, no samsung

  • When u play pub g (5-10 fps) after few mins u can literally make omlet on it.♨♨♨ Shit

  • I use note 2 S pen and it's not working😂😅

  • Network problem

  • Updated

  • Goodbye samsung . just got the New huawei Nova 3i

  • Random restarts happened to me 10 months ago, usually when the battery got down to around 20%. Replaced the battery (not a Samsung one, just a random cheap one) and it's been working fine ever since.

  • good phone until they just go dead, they first will starting restarting for a while then stop pending were you are most places cant repair them. That's the A8 but great up till then. I got a two year life out it.

  • Performance has gone down big time , Samsung Please send some updates to boost the ram up

  • Performance is always lacking in this device ! And also no nougat update yet So goodbye samsung...

  • When is the update coming for naugat in bangladesh..i heard most of the countries are getting update..and i m in marshmwllow. Could any one help me with this.?? Need a nougat update in my galaxy a800f.

  • What are talking about....? A8 design is perfect !!!!!! At least you can keep it comfortably in your hand...(unlike s8 that easily slips...)

  • This phone is from year 2015, look 2018 model

  • With those thick side bezels, looks outdated and there is no OIS, c'mon no OIS on phone that will probably cost around 500 euros in Europe. You can comfortably fit finger print scanner on the bottom bezel, is so huge. Looks like S8 if S8 ate a couple of cheeseburgers :) Skip it, you can buy the S7 edge for the same money if not cheaper, it's better option. Wait until they polish the design in the coming years.

  • Does this work in USA Network?

  • sm-a800i

  • which processor does the korean variant use?

  • sadsds has the worst grammar I've ever seen -He claims, "battery drain fast" -He claims, "not support vr" -He claims, "always overheat" -He claims, "battery die instantly"

  • Using this white Elephant for last two years. Getting a very Good Back up of two Hours ad in stand by it is ready to give even Four Hours also. We can have a coffee during the App-opening time. No separate Iron Box required, this is an added feature with metal Body. Only disadvantage is , handle not fixed..

  • galaxy a8(a800f)is the worst phone i have use, -battery drain fast -battery die instantly at 40% -always overheat (highest 89°c) -screen lag while playing games(fps2-10) -always lagging -late android ver support -no nfc -not support vr(no gyroscope) -expensive but come with low spec even the china cheap phone is more better than it -bullshit

  • I've had this handset for 20 months approx. Overheats frequently, and battery life down to 1-2 hours tops (although I do very little video or streaming).

  • Galaxy A8 2015 Versions are getting Noughat update..Started Rollin out at South Korea..Got from the internet.Lots of youtube videos are also available for proof..Waiting to get it from india

  • nougat update confirmed fo galaxy a8 a800f coming soon with Samsung's new ui always on display mode

  • The best mid range device Samsung ever made, sadly it got sidelined by the S series.

  • This is the most perfect phone samsung has ever created in terms of weight ,screen size and dimensions. Sadly new phones are heavy . At 150 grams for 5.7 inch display it's brilliant . Even the note series was heavier then this

  • How to dignose this phone Samsung Galaxy A8

  • I had this phone a year ago and it doing pretty good until just last month its start getting slow and laggy. I had install cleaner and antivirus and scan often but still slow. I try reset (factory reset) but still the same. It has 13GB available storage space. Then one more thing one day the google turn to bahasa from english, i didn't touch/change the setting. This phone giving me head ache now 😥😤

  • Is this instrument 4G-LTE compatible?

  • Which country and mb size?

  • Samsung Galaxy (A800i) is Getting Update 5 August 2017 Security Patch ...Update Now

  • when it gets update to nougat ??

  • I purchased this phone in Singapore, just a day after it was launched. Updated to 6.0.1 last year, around September. It works just fine. Only thing that bothers me is that it wont get updated to 7.0. but it still performs well

  • Restore wife setting.... all for all devices..... remove un necesary bond with out area wifi

  • I purchased samaung A8 in 2015, but 2 days before my mobile was charge 70% after within seconds charging drain 40 % and then 13% now i m not able to charge even for display on plz advise me what should i do next.

  • Really Nice Comment. I fo agree.I also have Samsung A8 & today I gonna replace by C9 Pro or iPhone6S

  • It does the battery life good??

  • A8 is done and dusted, no nougat update for this beauty Samsung has already forgotten the A8, one of the most underrated phone.

  • What about nougat update ?? All s & note lines of 2015 have got nougat update but not this one. If it doesnt get this update my faith for samsung will lost.

  • hahahaha

  • you have used so many words to say ... compare Ferrari to common sedan car.

  • Put in the bank and get 80 goats in 10 years...

  • You may have either faulty charger or power supply. It is best to get extension with surge protector to protect the devices. This is a long term damage, as it has gave you a warning previously. Should ask them why and how to prevent occurrence when the last time they repaired. Even drop or water moisture may affect the charging connector. Ensure nothing touch or near to the charging connector. Go and get another charger, which may help.

  • First is the router wireless working or not, by testing with other devices. On the 1st time to get the SSID and password, do it next to the router. Once both band 2.4GHz and 5GHz are set, test it and after this should not be any issue. The issue is the distance and obstruction between the router wireless and the phone, which will cause interference.

  • With hundred of models every year, do not expect much. Anyway this website indicated as; upgradable to 6.0 (Marshmallow)

  • The phone microSD card slot contact may be damage &or some metal stuck.

  • samsung does not have good reputation in providing the latest software to its devices.it mostly gets one major update and thats it.So i dont think it will get 7.0

  • did you mean *wife*?

  • instead of buying a phone that much, I would rather use that money to buy 8 goats.

  • jump on your phone three times shouting 'be fully charged". Then check the battery level.

  • you have used so many words to say so little about nothing

  • If you're a rich rough user and can afford 5X costly replacements, then Samsung is for you!

  • Hi Guys its been more than a year I have been using this phone. Yes I have played almost all the high end games available in the playstore i.e, GTA SanAndreas, Vice City, Asphalt 8, Morden Combat 5, The Walking Dead all seasons, they all run awesome. yes, but it has got an issue with Nova 3. Before upgrading it to Marshmallow Nova 3 ran fine but after upgrading to Marshmallow the game does not even open. Actually, its not the fault in the mobile hardware but its the problem in the game itself. Yes the cameras are good looking at the price. Yes, if you are willing to buy this phone now. Then I would say no. Its an old model. You may choose Samsung Galaxy A9 pro, which costs around 26k or you may get C9 pro at 36k. I got the C9 Pro yesterday.It is awesome.

  • My problem is,the wifi is not turning on...what can I do??

  • well its about a year that i am using it and no complains till now luckly but here are few things u should take care of.. 1) i thought it come with gorilla glass but it does not so just take care of that and buy 1 2) do not install many apps it will slow your phone down. 3) it lacks back cover there are not much option for it. 4)back camera is just amazing and at first it took me a lot of time to find its features but now that i have discovered it i would like to share it. there is a mode option just left to the click camera button from there u can choose modes like prioma 5)front cam is ok ok

  • I am using this phone for about one and a half year. No complain yet. Still its running as a new mobile.

  • I buy my A8 at oct 2015. 2 time my phone cannot charge. First at may 2016. I got warranty. Now it happen again at may 2017. What problem ?? Now no warranty.

  • It's about quality and AMOLED panel.

  • have you collected it?

  • sell and buy a TV. at least your whole family will share

  • Buy new one

  • My phone now upgraded version 6.0.1.. I got problem was that.. when I attach my memory card. My phone suddenly hang. No possible to my gallary. Also I facing other apps not working proper. When I ploug out memory everything is ok. How to solve this problem. Pls give me suggest.. I waiting as soon as your response.. thanks

  • My phone has fallen down and it is not working pls suggest me what to do

  • it really good

  • My screen was spoiled too. It costs rm700++ for repair. It's actually quite suitable for me, as a student. But now i prefer oppo R9s.

  • One thing I never heard that Samsung phone part replacements are very costly. I bought A8 for $437 one year ago and yesterday my display went off but touch is working. I went to 10 shops and all of them said replacement display will cost about $163. All of them said so. I checked on amazon, ebay and aliexpress the price is almost same. IDK what I'm going to do with this shit but I'm never going to buy Samsung phones. I broke my Xiaomi Mi5's display and I repaired it with only $38 lol. A8's 5.7" FHD 368 ppi vs Mi5's 5.15" FHD 428 ppi lol. Samsung sucks.

  • Pls any news on nougat on A8?

  • nougat update is available for a8 2015 ?

  • My phone had same problem what should I do

  • Seems like your charger or phone plug has died. RIP

  • it's damaged :(

  • Guys pls i dont know what happened to my phone, it stopped charging, and will remain at 0% without coming up What could be the reason.

  • nice phone good battery life and processor speed is good

  • Do u have note 3 bro now?

  • Exactly the camera is not really good but for me its awesome to use.

  • The thinnest Samsung phone ever.

  • Me too have note 3 right now.Im now thinking to buy a A8.So what about its speed and performance

  • Now the phone was properly working huh sir Samsung Galaxy a8

  • Screen was comming out from the metal body probably becouse of battery. I had a similar problem. Battery pushes the screen out, your battery is bloated ( expand, bulge, distend, inflate, dilate, bloat, puff up, balloon, fatten, fill out, tumefy ), it is thicker than it should be.

  • Not as good as it seemed when I first bought the phone. It will shut down even if the phone is at 30%. It has charging problems, even changed cables. The camera on the front is horrible. And sometimes the screen will black out and I can't do anything with the phone. I've had it for a year and started experiencing problems only after 4 months.

  • excellente!!. I switched from a note 3 to this phone and so far no issues.the performance of the device all depends on how you manage it.

  • I bought A8 since it was available in my country. Everything is excellent. Fast, very good battery and camera and also very durable(I dropped the phone a few times on concrete). May be some of you get fake units from china or just liars.

  • Yes, the camera is quite bad, especially the front camera.

  • I have been using Samsung Galaxy A8 for two years now. Usually to save battery, I am using Ultra Power Saving Mode. It seems that the battery life time is not as long as that of Samsung Galaxy S5 in this mode. Battery life for Samsung Galaxy S5 in this mode is more than 1 day, up to a week. However for Samsung Galaxy A8, the battery life time is LESS THAN 1 DAY even though I have full-charged the mobile phone and straightaway changed to Ultra Power Saving Mode. Is this normal for Samsung Galaxy A8?. Or is it just my mobile phone?

  • Guys, please really avoid phones with 1.0μm camera like this one. Low light performance is horrible, so dark, color is dull. Even photos in daylight, color is bad. 13MP with standard μm pixel size is much much better, even 8mp. I really regret buying this. Please samsung, don't do this ever again. I prefer camera bump but good cam rather than slimming the phone but reducing cam quality. CAMERA IS REALLY HORRIBLE. Don't trust gsmarena cam review for this phone. You will know the quality by using it everyday, in any light, like me.

  • You must submit That Device To Any Good Service Center.. Coz My A8 Is WorkinG Awsome .bro

  • I have bought this Smartphone on March-2016, from the 6th month its getting damaged & the problem was not solved even on the 11th month (Screen was comming out from the case/metal body); the phone gets highly heated afetr using WIFI/Internet. On the other hand its very good phone. The phone is not showing the quality in its pricing also. The service is pathetic... Anyway "I will never-ever recommend" this Phone for anyone

  • Correction, Bought A8 November 2015 bog down February.15, 2017, screen suddenly black out, bring unit Samsung service, mother board problem, life span 16month only

  • Battery 35% suddenly off. My camera (in) got dust. I clean before this at samsung centre (free) then it dirty again. Now they ask me 150$ for change the camera. Wtf

  • samsung A8 is good phone but not for long term u have to change after 5 or 6 month of use...

  • Strong candidate for "worst phone of the decade". Cheap fake looking plastic with obvious fake socalled metal finish, no side bezels make the phone go crazy and start loading things just by proximity of a hand. Never seen a phone with lower value for the money, this should be prized similar to acers and asus zenfone go and still it would be questionsble.

  • I am Amir.I am from Iran. I bought A8 2015.Then i updated its android to 6.0.1.It is very cool and amazing. It is very fast.but it will be a bit warm when you use it about 3 hours. Thanks SAMSUNG....

  • I got an SM-A8000 (Hong Kong) version. Phone is ok, but I didn't expect that camera is that worst. f/1.9? It is much worse than my iPhone that has the f/2.2 camera. So disappointed about this.

  • from where you installed this game?

  • J7 prime anytime.

  • Dumbest phone. All user taking back to show room saying the phone is not working. It has good design. But it is so thin that the phone break internally if very less pressure applied on it. It is another failure model from Samsung.

  • mine too. . no updates yet

  • Is samsung care take any cost for dis screen repair?

  • My Galaxy A8 screen is separating from my phone for the THIRD time. This same issue was already repaired twice in Chiang Mai, Thailand at the Samsung Repair Center. In addition the Auto Focus on the camera is hard to focus. It will roll through all the focus points and then remain unfocused when it decides to focus. I don't think I will be purchasing anymore Samsung products.

  • Same problem. Bugging issues

  • Is this feedback really come into the notice of the company. If so, I haven't seen any changes though the customers have provided many feedback.

  • its been a year im using this model, the serious problem that im facing was when my phone screen get crack and then went to center, they said it cant be claimed under warranty.. in fact, its not my fault actually. so that, i have no choice to fix even its expensive.. cause i love the functional of this model... :p

  • My fron camera really sucks after the update.😖😖😖

  • My A8 phones just updated yesterday and it upsets me on the changes. First thing i noticed is the front camera. Omg, it becomes smoky when taking selfie. Really frustrating.

  • Just got an update of 260 MB today.

  • Sad. It must be under warranty,visit a service Centre and get it replaced.

  • crap so I guess have faulty phone now Im just using this for a month ,,, so sad ssssshhhh ...It can temporary fix by reinserting the headphone though but its so annoying everytime I do that.. I tried to reformat it once it kinda fix it but it came back again.. crappp

  • Hello, I have a broken screen and needs replacement. Can someone help please....?

  • No overheating issues with this beast unlike note 7 or other high end 'explosive' flagships, safest phone to use and much cheaper. Just go with it and you won't regret.

  • I have the Samsung A8 top phone. I am very happy with it

  • does this phone overheat plz tell me bro,i am gonny buying this ?

  • I love to watch movies and live sports on my A8 it's simply awesome and the most underrated phone in the A series. This phone deserves much more recognition as it is brilliant in terms of performance, built quality, battery life and camera.

  • I Have a SAMSUBG GALAXY A8000 i used it for 8 months now....Its really good very slim good design very good camera more apps can play not hangging or logging battery life is good ... the hot surface is natural to a phone with non removable battery and have a metal back side but this not affect the phone....Its pretty much to buy a Samsung Galaxy A8000

  • Camera is awesome in this price...

  • Same happened with me... got it on 6th june n today they display is bead...so delicate pgone...dont ever buy samsungg neva everrrr

  • Mine is A800F yes it does get hot while charging but doesn't overheat.

  • Samsung Galaxy A8 looks very good but no one should dare to buy it. I have bought it before 4 month from samsung e-store and my phone was dead now.When I go to samsung service center, they were saying like a scratch is present so that cannot come under warranty and I should spend 9200 to make the screen replaced. Note: I was using my phone with tampered glass and still I faced this. Please do not go for such a delicate mobile by wasting your amount.

  • dont go for it, its camera too poor , hanging and overheating. i hate this product

  • one of the best phone I ever had

  • Hi I'm from Pune too & I used to face the same issue but it got resolved after the last software update received.

  • Stock Samsung A8 keyboard does not predict numbers like saved mobile numbers and also does not have personalisation option to learn from Gmail Facebook twitter whereas lower level A5 had these features.

  • Exactly, it's a really good phone considering the price, big screen with good camera and exceptional battery life.

  • Haven't faced any such issue, just do a factory reset.

  • I am using these phone since last 1 year but there is no problem with it.One of the best phone that I have been used.

  • Cam setting is not opening why is this ?

  • Jio app is not working why i m not able to get bar code

  • Very good phone at this price, runs very well on marshmallow too. Battery life is good gives me a day on moderate usage, camera quality is good too. Love to watch live sports and movies on this giant screen.

  • still no firmware update for philippines.

  • Rightly said, A8 is the best value for money, it has everything you want in a smartphone considering the price. It's a treat to watch movies on its massive screen, battery life is good, performance is butter smooth and camera is great.

  • Camera is worst. ...color reproduction are very bad....dull color ....Ind ady light over exposure is main issue and green trees colors are like overexposed and color less .....samsung cheated me...I think samsung pays heavy bribery to online marketing to write positive reviews...

  • The speakers sounds are very low

  • I have used many phones like iPhone 4s, Galaxy Grand, LG, Lenovo, HTC. But Galaxy A8 is so far the best value for money. Amazing phone ! Those who want a big screen, should go for A8.

  • my phone is good but My voice is breaking regularly and all the people to whom I call regularly complain that the voice is breaking continuously. I have changed both sims in slot 1 and slot 2. Changed the sims from AIRTEL to BSNL and VOdafone to AIrtel and changed the sims from the Service provider thrice. Even then there is no improvement, I had reset the settings, reset the call setting, reset the factory settings, but no use. This problem i am facing in my house and office also. Finally i had decided to purchase a new set. I went to service centre there they said there is no problem and continuously set in 3G only not in 4G. I stay in Pune. Can anybody help me.

  • Speaker sound is low.

  • Am first time user of samsung mobile.Recently brought Samsung galaxy A8 and found the speaker not loud enough as compared to other phone.

  • The only downside in this phone is it takes ages to charge which is quite irritating over 4 hours even from 22-100% which is quite surprising. Even though I got fast charger with this phone but this one doesn't support fast charging so it's kinda useless.

  • yeh Samsung has no good quality phones mostly

  • this phone is not waterproof... Why samsung posted video on youtube that Galaxy A8 is waterproof( Water taste).. and samsung service centre is wrost service centre in the world..

  • The samsung Galaxy A8 that I purchased in Dec 2015 gave me the first shock when the prices were slashed in Jan 2016 by almost 60 %!!! Then next thing i knew was I faced a broken screen, due to a fall ( obviously ,but my previous rough use Sony had suffered many falls without a crack!!!), 8k down the drain to replace the screen - now calculate the loss after the price was slashed... my heart bleeds.... 6 months later...mashmellow update crashes ,.... motherboard crashes.... and though still in warranty ... have to shell out a bomb!

  • what are you struggling to say?

  • Samsung is world wrost company......what is this SM A800F received 6.0 update but A800i still on stock version 5.0 wth

  • Kindly arrange to get me back to the position earlier to update, it Leaves me to use only one sim to use. Thanks.

  • Kindly arrange to get me back to the position earlier to update, it Leaves me to use only one sim to use. Thanks.

  • After installing software update from Samsung A8. Many Problems have started. 1. finger print screen lock does not work many times. 2. Gallery Images edit crop option is missing. 3. Wechat shows unable to access server until i open wechat 4. facebook does not get refreshed news feed Phone is smoother after update & battery lasting bit longer than before but above problems are irritating big time.

  • yes im using A8 its good i loved my phone all futures are wonderful..:) keep rocking Samsung Galaxy

  • Marshmallow update still not available for SM-A800I modal in india. :(

  • Samsung will repair for you free if within warranty period.

  • Your Samsung service center did not give you a good deal. I had damage 1 Samsung phone screen, due to drop. The Samsung service center took my phone to repair. Upon collecting the phone, the staff told me it is FREE.

  • Well, it's your fault you shouldn't dropped it. If you were very careful your A8 should still working. I have this phone for almost a year now. It's still alive and kicking.

  • yes. i agree it started giving on-off problem and the customer service do not support contacted the ceo desk lets c what happens.....one more thing i came to know that samsung had stopped manufacturing this product please get it confirmed.

  • This is very nice Mobile. .. I am happy to using samsung Mobile.

  • I think the problem is your many girlfriends. please get a wife

  • Received Marshmallow update 2 days ago. Phone got even more smoother now.

  • The build quality of the handset is quite good and it looks impressive while holding in hand. The display is brilliant and battery backup is excellent. Fingerprint scanner works with amazing ease and is quite responsive. However, on the down side, TouchWiz user interface is a bit lax. It even ends up irritating the user at times. But all in all, this phone is good value for money. If one can secure any discounts through any offer, must go for it! :)

  • Hi, I am from the Philippines and I got my Samsung A8 from one of the 2 mobile carriers here (yes, there's only 2 here and they are duopolizing stuff, anyway...). I got the phone April 26, 2016. Playing videos on it was good. Camera shots were OK. The sounds needs improvement since most of it can be heard if you are looking behind the phone which is not ideal if you're fond of watching movies/series on your mobile. My biggest disappointment though is, I dropped the phone ONCE this July, and the LCD immediately stopped working! The tempered glass on it broke, but the glass itself is still intact. I can still receive calls, sms, I can still even here my calendar notifications, but I can's do anything because the screen is black. As per samsung's assessment, the LCD is broken and it is not covered by warranty! I thought they're using good glass for the LCD but it easily broke! My Note 2 was way even better. I dropped it multiple times and it is still working. Imagine, I paid 9,600 pesos (roughly $213.00 USD) to get it as a phone from my plan, and now, I have to pay 7,700 pesos (roughly $171.00 USD) for the repair. This is really frustrating, after my plan expires, I will never ever get a samsung phone again.

  • Thank u bro/sister m facing same problem with Samsung.

  • I have been using this phone less than a year now, but so far so good no any issue.

  • Friends don't even think to buy this rubbish phone I just bought 20 days back unfortunately now the mobile screen is flickering like anything f**k up with this Samsung.never buy Samsung products again.many customers encountered the same problem with their mobiles so please be careful to invest your hard earned money

  • Try to charge the battery up to 100% but not all the time. And battery should not drop to less than 35%, where it prompt to recharge

  • Wth Samsung.....

  • In Samsung A8 sometimes the mobile turn into silent mode automatically, even the alarm also...i switched off all the motion gestures, but it remain same.. any idea guys?

  • M update is toooo smooth

  • I am using this phone 5 mnth ago very nice phone camera and batterybackup and now rel. M update on 7 july update ur phone guys

  • back camera showing blac dot for secreen what problem

  • I m also disappointed still mobile heating and battery backup also not gd..Evan after purchased I visited also service center.still not solved problem.I can't trust again Samsung .plz don't purchage this mob.

  • It is because of overheating the software automatically detects the load of apps on the processor and restarts the phone so that it can reduce the temperatures if thats not the case it may be a problem with the hardware like ram get it checked with the service center and insist them on checking the hardware generally the service center people just reset the phone and give it to you so insist on them if the restart problem get's solved by just resetting it than maybe it is a particular app problem so get it checked once have any other doubts ask me

  • Go o setting>Backup and reset>Auto restart and turn if Off Thanks!

  • i think better is this that we comment on Samsung official site for SM A800I update

  • Delete all the unwanted downloaded themes on theme store

  • That it depend. The service did replace the touch screen, as what you say, drop and damaged. Upon collection, the staff said FREE

  • i had pruchased A8 just 2weeks back.and it dropped from my hand smoothly in the floor.its display is gone.how can i get it repaired in warranty.display and touch is very sensetive

  • The update is not for SM A800I model in india.....only For SM A800F

  • I don't understand after having a good battery power ie 3050mah ,my A8 battery drops fast now .with 1% it last for 4 min in excess .I still have the warranty of phone and I claimed the warranty after which the pH is still in the same condition ..i loved this ph but it seems that it's just the waste of money once again

  • very bad experience with Samsung A8 the display of this phone is very sensitive.... main problem in service center is self declaration i don't know why i will give self declaration in under warranty....

  • the moto x pure seems a little bit better than this phone

  • 6p

  • Note series display & phone is wide. A series display & phone is long. Your personal choice. Go for A8, good phone. Note 3 neo is 2+ years old.

  • Guys shud i go for note 3 neo or a8 ... i nevr had samsung's any fon ...

  • very true..go for gold A8....awesome device in 25k range..build is simply eye catchy

  • I don't understand why people are saying that A8 is not a good choice. I was searching for a good phone from January 2016. I had a look at almost all the trending phones including Redmi Note 3, HTC Desire series, Sony Z and C series along with other MI phones recently launched. I wanted a phone with an amazing rear and front camera even in low lights or artificial lights along with a decent battery backup as I was using a XOLO Q 3000 from last 2 years. It had a 4000Mah battery. I purchased Samsung A8 without a thought because of the following features:- Big Screen, Gorilla Glass Protection, Amazing display quality, 16 MP Rear and 5MP front camera, 3050Mah battery and last but not the least A branded phone with a better service quality provided you don't break ur screen display or drop it in water. Phone lasts for a day with moderate to heavy usage. Guys you just need to make sure that there are less number of background applications, brightness is neither too less nor too high and a afew other things. Iam satisfied with my Samsung Galaxy A8 after spending 23900 Rs. Purchased it from Nagpur, Maharashtra on 9th May 2016. Just love it. You guys don't have any idea what a 16MP samsung camera can do. Also I have started playing heavy games.

  • 6p

  • This is really getting in my nerves on which of this phones i should buy, the slim galaxy a8 or the said badass nexus 6p? the galaxy a8 priced at 25k here in philippines while the nexus 6p is at 23k.. which is a best buy?

  • ring tune very slow

  • useless phone and it has very weak screen. internal damage will spoil the phone even if there is no impact outside. service centre will not give warranty. my advise to buyers is that do not buy this phone.

  • Wt is the funny thing in samsung A8 there is no gyroscope sensor. i put 26k but there is no gyro sensor for VR.now a days cheap phones having gyro sensor any VR lovers seriously don't buy this phone.very shameless (samsung company)

  • Hlww frnd may i know ..from which website did you brought yours mobile in such Amazing cheapest price 23900

  • Volume of the phone is too low....90% of her times the ring-tone goes unnoticed. ...

  • I hve a8 but there no light indicator .theres no led settings

  • hahahahaha xD i read all the reply sa thug life xD

  • That is why all phones come with ear piece! Use it or waste it.

  • You need to click on the left button "Recent" tray. Remove all those apps still inside this tray, click on the X on each app or click on the 3 straight lines with X -> this is to clear all apps. Each app do consume some battery and ram, hence if any app open will run better with more ram available. Looks like you are not or never use to clear all apps in the Recent tray.

  • You need to adjust the screen tone. Then on the camera, do adjust in the setting. Finally, did you remove the sticker on the camera!

  • Don't use tempered glass or anything on top of the screen. Then you will not see it blur.

  • The phone ask you to take a break. The phone need to rest for a few minutes.

  • A8 is 5.5 inch and A5-2016 is 5.1 inch. A8 is somewhat older than A5-2016. A8 has long screen, not like Note has wide screen. Which you prefer.

  • Yes. At Setting -> Display -> LED indicator - enable.

  • Put it in the freezer

  • No phone is not click blur image

  • NOTE...of course

  • Just replace your A8 and buy note 5 instead cuz it is pretty good

  • If you wanna buy a suitable phone...it would be note 5...neither A5 nor A8

  • does it have a notification led ?

  • both the phones have good specification . but i think a8 is better

  • I am Considering to buy Samsung A8, is this phone better then the A5 2016 edition or not ????

  • does the galaxy a8 hangs as other samsung mobiles.only worst thing with samsung mobiles is that during starting time it remains correct but as the time passes it starts hanging in very rough condition

  • Ds emulators dont run in galaxy a8. Can anyone help me with this?

  • Samsung Galaxy A8 is worst mobile phone at this price tag. The speaker of the phone is at back side. Even u cannot listen the ringtones i.e. incoming calls while at traffic. I went to Defence Colony Samsung authorised Service Centre as the voice of my mobile phone a8 was very low. The customer care executive told me that on new phones voice is low. This is not the fact as on purchase the voice of the phone was very good. I recommend that no one purchase this phone Samsung Galaxy A8 even at the price of Rs. 5000/-.

  • Camera in the phone is never the best. Go get a good camera. Nowadays camera relatively are cheaper than phone.

  • gorilla glass 4? So, your decision is based on those reviewers saying this should not happened. Who and how do those reviewers get their money and free goodies from!!! This is what i know, Gorilla Glass will not break, as for the phone screen, no guarantee. This is what they will not put in their review, else the reviewer will be no longer reviewer and he have to reviewer what he said are not to be too true. I had broke with the screen totally damage but the so-called gorilla glass is unbreakable. Reviewer can be anyone, it depend who pay them, and write to their benefits, understand.. There was an incident where the blogger and the Telco that this blogger wrote to benefit the Telco, and say bad about other Telcos. Both got punished.

  • A8 screen look long, Note screen is broad & wide. Which you prefer, your taste.

  • Go to setting and you will see the NFC & sharing, then turn ON the NFC. If do not have, you have a imitation phone. Samsung has long ago include NFC for mid-range to high-range phones.

  • Don't tell me that 17 - 18 hrs is not enough. Some up to 4 - 8 hours. Your expectation is far too high.

  • A7 2016 is the almost the same as A8, based on same size. A7 2016 has better & advance features,

  • You need to polish and wash your hand thoroughly as it is very sensitive. Then need to dry your hand thoroughly. Home key is the sensor, but you need to fully touch & start from the top & outside the Home key. Do the swipe slower. Try to use other fingers as it can also detect other fingers, which is when you start.

  • it doesn't recognize my fingerprint anymore. can any one help me regarding this topic please??

  • Very Good

  • it's awesome but you shoud not install many games and apps on it ! it gets hot ...

  • galaxy a5 2016 is better choice

  • There is 1 tray. Open the tray there are 2 card holders. There is 1 holder that fit for micro SIM card. The next slot is an option, it can fit a micro SD card OR another nano SIM card. Therefore, either use 2 SIM cards, without micro SD card; OR 1 micro SIM card and micro SD card.

  • Samsung galaxy a8 says it's uses dual simply but can't find where simply 2 is..can someone help me

  • Guys I purchased this phone 4 days ago. Each and everything about this phone is superb. This is my first Samsung phone. Amazing experience. I purchased it for 23900. Only issue I think I am facing is that the battery isn't lasting that much. I mean if I use internet or watch videos moderately, battery lasts 17-18 hrs in a full charge. Is this usual or WITH TIME the battery efficiency increases??? Please reply. Thanks

  • you didnot have any display problem no some people posted about dome problem

  • Just to mention that above specs say "NFC - Yes" but the Samsung Galaxy A8 that i have does not have NFC

  • dont blame the phone for your fault friend

  • Its worst mobile. Its not worth for 26000 rs. I m facing so many problems in this phone. When I use more internet or more calls problems start. The problem is , it becomes out of my control. It automaticalli uses itself. Opens some window itself or opens internet etc. I cant open any icons during this. By keeping aside for 2 to 3 hours , it becoms normal. Very worst

  • Been using it for past 3months. Extremely a good phone :)

  • Its a quite good phone...nice looks good gui there is only one problem however, this problem is with all the smart phones available in the market battery bakup.. though its 3050mah but battery backup is not dat good...camera quality is ok ok

  • A8 vs Note 4 Slim vs Broad RAM: 2 vs 3 mid-range vs high-range your choice

  • Totally agree with you even my screen got damages when i just took out from pocket and they said its a physical damage. it been only 10-15 days i have purchased the mobile. after replacing to the new now the screen is coming out the screen is not perfectly placed i guess.

  • I have the Galaxy A8 for about 2 months. I'm very satisfied about it. Has a good camera and it has a very fast processor and the the battery goes a long way, also during playing games. Compare white S6 and Note 5, it has almose the same functions and for a cheaper price.

  • Hi...I'm using now Samsung A8 for a couple of weeks. ...really amazing device. ..it never lags or heats up...excellent camera..very responsive ...awesome fingerprint. ..stylish design...very slim..and you have the option of second sim or micro SD ....you will never regret having it

  • Xperia Z3 is better option But the camera of Z3 is not good

  • go to playstore , check setting and then off automatic installation.............

  • i bought an a8 and it works perfectly. perhaps you have to take it back to where you bought it to check what's the problem? cause my a8 battery could actually use for a day. but i dont play games with it.

  • DO NOT BUY A8... I was having problem with play store. Nothing was getting updated or installed so i had to factory rest my phone... now im having issues with coverage... im getting full network coverage at my other phone htc one but on A8 it keeps on syaing that no coverage is available... phone is shit, DO NOT BUY

  • How to stops software updates plz hal me ?

  • I bought a Samsung A8 it gets heated up and battery drains out very fast. I am not at all satisfied. Not recommended. I was excited when I bought it but I am very disappointed. Wish I could replace it

  • A few people don't appreciate the camera quality. How do you see it ?

  • the grand one, only drawback is 2GB RAM for 26K. other than the phone performance is too good. well designed hardware

  • i am also using A8 but in this device some issue like touch problem & google play service etc... thats why i prefer note series or s series its good.

  • If you are heavy user of games and music then go for A9 as it has 3 GB Ram, 6" Display and 4000 MAh Battery. A7 (2016) version will be my second choice as it alsmost have A9 features! No to Lenovo X3 as it has battery draining issues.

  • Go for A8 or A9. The only drawback in A8 is 2 GB RAM and its resolved now with A9! So if are sticky with budget go for A8 or if you need Best product go for A9

  • Dear Friends i want to Purchase Samsung Galaxy A8. Just I want to know User opinions about this call phones.. Plz. help me..

  • The price of this phone has dropped to 25k in Pune, Maharashtra, dated 23/02/2016 due to the launch of Galaxy A5 2016 & A7 2016. The price for white & black color models is even lower. Perfect value for money phone Pros: - High quality images can be recorded in the Camera - Screen is to die for - In-built 32gb memory is a good added advantage - Finger print scanner is super fast & extremely efficient Cons: - For people who are not used to big size screen smartphones, this will annoy you more - Handset gets heated after prolonged use - Selfies came out a little blurry, need to hold extremely still while taking a selfie

  • which one is better Samsung Galaxy A7 (2016) or A8?

  • what about the Touch Wiz, in the reviews it says that there is some lag in touch responsiveness.

  • Been using A8 for the past mth. Chose it instead of note 5 as it looks sleeker, more comfy to hold and weigh slightly lighter. No regrets. Best phone at reasonable price. Flagships are over rated n more expensive after which u still change them after 2 years. Save the money, don't be a crowd follower but be a smart buyer.

  • Any difference between A800f, A800y,A800i? Im having A800i, any comment?

  • U re absolutely right thank u

  • That's true, no need to spend extra on S6/S6 edge or Note 5, A8 fulfills all you need in a smartphone so be sensible & save your hard earned money, A8 rocks!!

  • Samsung Galaxy A8 is better than another samsung ..try it first ..

  • Please contact your network operations service centres

  • It doesn't have led notification light.

  • I can't find my flash led light when i got notification on my A8...please assist me

  • i want this phone. but i know about phone, plz any parson detalis this phone, or if which phone is better?

  • My a8 charged for almost 5hrs!!! Is dis normal charging? Isn't it a fast charging phone? Anyone who can answer me pls?

  • I have been using the A8 for more than a month. The good things about this phone are: battery is excellent, screen display is decent, good looks and sleek (not too heavy for its size), external memory option and fingerprint scanner works very well. The BIGGEST PROBLEM is the LAG. I use the phone extensively for office email, browsing, regular apps like fb, ola, etc. and the phone's performance slows down significantly. I was an iphone 5 series user earlier, and I find that it takes a lot of time for apps to open in the A8. I think the 2 GB RAM is just not enough, i wish they had made it atleast 3GB RAM (the one-plus two priced lower has 4 GB RAM). Also the camera is just ok, nothing fancy great. If you are a heavy user using email, fb, etc. then you may look for better options in the same price range.

  • Love this sexy piece of metal.

  • My Galaxy A8 easy to heat up when streaming video (YouTube,Twitch) and make the phone uncomfortable to holds but when I play games like Vainglory, Asphalt 8, temperature lower than the temperature when streaming video. What I can do, is it normal phone heats up real fast when streaming video and it drains battery like 18-22 percents battery per hour. Or is this happen because bad software ? I have checked all running apps, disabled all unnecessary bloatware.

  • HI there can someone help me how to make the icon smaller

  • You're absolutely right this phone is awesome in all aspects, one of the best battery life I've ever come across in a smartphone also the charging is blazing fast which is so cool, worth every single penny. Highly recommended, no need to spend extra bucks for flagships like S6 or note 5 this phone does a pretty good job at a reasonable price.

  • terrible experience. In three days time screen became coloured. I am told by service centre that it got pressed by hand so screen is upset from its place.Samsung does not cover this as warranty and will charge 8000 Rupees! new phone cost 25900 Rupees. Sick experience,will never buy it from Samsung again.

  • Fantastic Phone Samsung Galaxy A8 Absolutely stunning fingerprint lock working Awesome Clock configuration especially world-clock! Best buy and user-friendly.. Has got 2 slots for Nano-SIM cards. (No separate slot for memory card) Very good CPU and RAM configuration..

  • Using A8 for the past 1 month. 4G socks. Used SS4 before this and that was fine with 4G.

  • Since it doesn't have a removable back so the s-view cover won't work on the A8 however it really works on my friend's note 4.

  • It will be but after the S-series.

  • Can anyone tell A8 support Sview cover?

  • Y no plan for upgrade to Android 6

  • You can answer or reject calls with a single tap on the screen. No need to swipe anymore! Very simple and convenient! Just turn on the Single tap mode in Accessibility there.

  • Amazing Device using since 4 months am very happy and satisfied no lagging no Heating no issue even Camera is also awesome its like all in one device nice battery slim metalic ram is 2gb (which is fine) 32 gb internal 5.7 inches full hd super amoled screen  16 mp back 5 front cam octacore fast charging then other devices 3050 mah battery  Latest ios verson so whts the point to not buy this device as it has everything

  • Feeling happy and lucky by buying this device it realy competes with s6 and note 5 plys its cheap than s6 (poor battery phone) and note 5(issue with boltware)

  • Dear sod, I purchased this mobile 10days back but i am unable to use my memory card as i have another sim. And also unable to set the time for mobile kindly getback

  • If camera is your main concern then go for S6.

  • Excellent Choice among Similar- featured phones.

  • a8 is good. no lagging N camera is fine well.

  • friends ..frm where i can buy a8 with Exynos 5430? what about its camera....does it really worth a lot??

  • Please tell me how is the camera of this phone ? I m interested in buying this phone . Also which phone is better Samsung s6 or A8 ????

  • Which is more better in terms of battery usage, camera and not lagging note 4 or a8?

  • Sir, RAM and internal storage is two different thing. 2GB RAM of this phone is a RAM not internal storage. RAM used by operating system to store the apps on the phone. The internal storage of this phone to store files like movie and MP3 is 32GB.

  • I hope my mother will buy my phone.

  • Using this phone for quite some time now & I'm really happy with my A8, superb sleek n' stunning design with monstrous battery life also it charges pretty fast compared to other phones which is a blessing, camera is pretty good indoors & mind blowing outdoors, overall best buy at this price. Highly recommend.

  • Haven't heard about that so called beep sound ever, what the hell on earth is that??

  • pls update the phone its work

  • can any one help me, i m planning to buy galaxy a8 but at the end my minds stop me to buy it coz i m confusing about the 2 gigs of RAM, as i love to keep movies, videos and pics i wanted to attach an external storage of 64 gb, so is there any hanging problems issues with this external storage 64 gb with an internal 32gb, can 2 gb RAM supports properly or not........please guys HELP me.

  • Samsung A 8 ! ! ! Superb in all respects I must say. I have purchased it in India. Will i work in U.K. and Europe ? Please advise if any one has any idea about this.

  • Worst phone.... Have taken this phone one month back and there is a beep sound coming from the phone when ever u slide any app. Too fed up of this. And also Samsung people are not ready to replace the same. Too irritated with this. A new phone having such problems is too frustrating

  • does gear S2 work on this set

  • I am using this phone since last 10 days, everything is awesome with this phone, but the problem is my screen mirroring is not working when tried to connect to tv it shows cannot connect via screen mirroring, my motions and gestures like Mute & Palm Swipe both are not working, S voice sometimes don't wakeup when called. don't know which processor this mobile in India is using , don't know whether screen mirroring is miracast certified or not ? None of samsung customer care executive is able to answer that, even samsung service center is unable to figure out this problems. Except this problems the mobile phone is just awesome.

  • Yes, it depends upon your region. eg.in India, you get an Exynos chipset variant which has dual sim feature and an internal 32gb of storage.

  • Wow, very very nice question and quite a personal one for me as I had HTC Desire 826 earlier and now own an A8. Well, I must say that there isn't a single department where A8 would fall short of anything than 826. Rather A8 excels in a lot of areas than even the flagships. To point some: 1.It has a great battery backup 2.Charges quickly than regular phones 3.Camera is great 4.All metal body and Samsung brand 5.Superamoled screen for better color production

  • very true Trever

  • A8 has monstrous battery life, period.

  • Camera quality is very poor .

  • Have u done the troubleshoot

  • Tell me some pepole this phone is bettry bakup not gud

  • Sadly it doesn't have led notification but you can go to settings>motion & gestures then select "Smart alert" your phone will vibrate when you pick it up to notify you about missed calls & messages.

  • A 8 nice phone

  • Waste of money no dual sim and speaker sound is very low

  • It is not having led notification

  • why my samsung galaxy a8 dont have duos at the back?

  • If you've got "auto call record" app, uncheck the option from there.

  • I lost my Huawei G750 last 3 weeks, and just bought the Samsung A8. The A8 in general is a little better than G750 such loud speaker and camera, but almost similar on the daily use. One of my concern is the A8 camera without flash, some photo good, but some not. And when take photo with moving object such animal walking the picture detail not every clear. If use sport mode, it's good, but not every satisfy. Battery G750 may last longer about 1-2 hours. Speed G750 faster because same ram and almost same CPU, but G750 screen smaller.

  • I've had this phone for a couple of days. The speaker goes on automatically when you receive a call and everyone can hear what the other person is saying! How do I switch that off??? Is it even possible? Think I prefer the S-series.

  • I am using this mobile last one month superb display clarity fast browsing also and good camera clarity really like it this hands set ........ before i am used apple i phone 6 compare to apple this phone user friendly mobile ...

  • my sister is in taiwan (china) and she told me that she will buy me this phone. but as what ive read on some articles.

I try to off and restart, it take few minutes phone total shut down. I am regret to come back to Samsung. Before I was using Xperia XL, it was super.

  • I have been using this phone for 2 months, its a great phone, only concern is no notification LED.

  • No

  • It's a very good phone infact worth every single penny, using it since a week now & haven't faced a single issue till date. Superb build quality it's the slimmest phone by Samsung, battery life is really good watched live sport today for about 50 mins & the battery went down by 5% which is really great, camera is perfect although it doesn't have ois but that's not an issue the pics turn out crisp & clear outdoors, acceptable indoors, speakers ain't that good but still do the job, call quality is excellent & fingerprint sensor works like a charm.

  • Samsung a8

  • I've been using it for like 3 months or so.. i have to say its a pretty sleek and slim model.. everything is fine but the phone heats up easily after using it for some time for gaming or when you use the camera or use skype or snapchat Live... and the battery goes 100% to 30% or less in 1-3 hour(s) or more.. i dont really know what to do now

  • I don't know about that but one thing's for sure i regret buting a8 because if its poor battery life. Evev turning the fone off. The battery heats up easily. I totally want a refund for this!!!

  • Well for me its all in one like in A series only A8 has 16 mp cam like S6 and note 5 shape wise A8 is best Androind version wise a8 best and its also Octacore 32gb builtin memory plus in slot 2 you can use card or sim its slim and very handy it is 5'7 inches but never feels huge for me i never had any disadvantage but only one thing is missing that is Lockscreen more effects and walpaper animation rest of complete device is awesome with awesome battery :)

  • Don't go for C5 ultra,I've used it, it really gets hot while using also the battery life ain't that good, camera takes a while to open so at times you just miss those candid moments, the only good thing is the front cam with flash, so if you're a selfie lover go for it but if you care for performance, great battery life, better rear camera and solid build quality choose A8.

  • Choose sony c5 itss batter instead samsung A8

  • Hi I have just booked my Samsung A8 phone but I could not see in any video about the battery removal and fixing by user looks like we cant do this only service Centre can do this . my question is if the phone hangs occasionally we may have to remove battery and re fix on such cases what to do? any one can advise

  • Well the H that you are talking about bro.... Its not a fault it only shows the capibality of your network at that time.... Not an issue

  • There is a very special variant of this phone but only for Vietnam. It has Exynos 5433, which was used on Note 4 910C and Tab S2... A8VE performs 3 times better than regular version with silly SD61x version even better than Note 4 thanks to lower screen resolution. Samsung makes kind of surprises for asian market, you'll probably never see this version unless you travel to Vietnam or you know some one who lives there. It isn't fair, but samsung was never fair about classifiying world's people... Remember special S5 editions for mainland... Many people waits for S7 because most powerful phones comes allways from Samsung, other companies like htc, lg, sony tries their chance with weak snapdragon socs and they loose against. LG4 is nearly same prices as S6 but S6 has 3 times faster and has better specs, look at M9 same story...

  • I bought Galaxy A8 mobile on 10-12-2015 which cost me INR 30000/- and iam from india. its been a month since i got this and Its a fantastic mobile phone.It has tons of features as available in flagship models. Advantages of this phone is 1.finger print sensor 2.5.7" SUPERAMOLED screen 3.32 GB Internal storage 4.memory card support 5.full day battery back up(3000 mah ) 6.Premium feel ( Thanks to full metallic body and 5.9mm thickness Disadvantages of A8 1.High price (should be priced at 25000 to 27000) 2.No NFC (Even A7 has NFC) 3.Camera is shaky while taking pictures, may be because of its size( while touching the capture button) . i use timer to took photos(selfie) and otherwise images are so good 4.camera flash is not powerful( i previously own Galaxy Grand duos and while comparing grand's flash A8's is so dim 5.Speaker sound is "OK". while playing youtube videos in office environment its hard to hear ( But head phone clarity is very good) COMPLAINTS: 1.today :( when i try to unlock phone its shows a message " finger print not working " and it keep restarting ( unable to show home screen /apps /settings). At first i frightened then i googled it but didnt get any suggestion( its a new phone :( ). it keep restarting several time and i cant able to power off because it dont have removale back cover and battery. then i tried to reset the phone ( really pissed off) by pressing Volume Up + Home + Power button then miraculously show power off , restart ,flight mode screen (Thank god!) instead of hard reset screen , so use restart option and every thing gone fine. After restart phone works fine...i dont know what happened to its sensor as i was not using the phone at that moment. may be some software issue ?!!
