Some terminals that have little to envy their brothers in the high range because although we talk about the mid-range, which is where they move Galaxy A and Galaxy J families from Samsung. The new A8 comes with premium details like an infinite screen and a double camera.
The flagship device from the 2017 version is the most economical mobile phones of the Korean firm from which its first details and aspects have been filtered.
The German web Winfuture has been the source of the ‘leak’, and almost all the tab of the features of the terminal has been published. The so-called SM-J250 model has an external design very similar to J2 this year, although with a more stylized point in the chassis. Especially in the back, which has changed the design of the camera and houses one with the lens and the flash placed vertically.
The screen is a Super AMOLED and has increased to 5 inches with respect to the J2 (2017), presenting a resolution of 960 x 540. The redesigned rear camera is 8 megapixels and the front 5 megapixels, both with LED flash and with more resolution.

The filtered price is around $135 to the change, although until Samsung does not pronounce itself in a firm, none of this is safe.
