AnonD-434010, 20 Nov 2015but make sure you are getting an Exynos chipset variant. Don't buy A8 if you are getting Snapd... morePeople like you need to stop making perception that all snapdragon processors "heat" a lot and consumes more power than its exynos counterpart. I wouldn't deny that happened on their current 810 but really stop justifying their whole product just from one example.
As quoted from gsmarena review of the Galaxy A8:
"The other version of Galaxy A8 uses Snapdragon 615, a 28nm chip. True, it lacks the fast, power-hungry Cortex-A15 cores, but we expect different results due to the older manufacturing process."
The snapdragon 615 version is definitely slower and inferior compared to the exynos version but how does it tell that the device overheats or not?

Faisal , 19 Nov 2015Thank, I'm not game freak. I need more battery back up and high speed internet as I have to us... morebut make sure you are getting an Exynos chipset variant. Don't buy A8 if you are getting Snapdragon 615 chipset variant in your region. You can verify it with your local vendor.
This is suggested because Snapdragon 615 heats a lot and consumes battery more than average.

sen, 19 Nov 2015very worst model more heating problem we go service center they can only change the mother boa... moreIdeally, if you have had problems within a day or so, you should return it to your vendor. Usuallly all vendors have 4-5 days return back policy in which they hand you a new phone.

Speaker position is definitely on the wrong side if you consider other phones with front facing speakers or at the bottom like iPhones.
Regarding lag in UI, YES. While surfing through home screen the UI lags sometimes but this lag is unklike previous samsung phones. It doesn't hinder your experince while switching apps or playing games.

SM-A800S vs other, 21 Oct 2015I have seen different models of the Galaxy A8 which one is the official or what is the differe... moreBasically the only difference you would find with all these models is with:
1.Internal Memory- 16 GB/ 32GB
2.Dual Sim- Second slot is a smart slot for dual sim/memory card in some regions
3.Processor- Exynos or Snapdragon
Based on your region you might get combination of specs based on these three factors.
All are genuine though. No worries with that anyway.

Anky123, 25 Oct 2015Which phone is better?A8 or E9+Good choice of phones must say !
I would suggest A8 only if you are getting exynos variant.
In this case, A8 is superior because you get a fingerprint sensor, the touch wiz UI is far productive and advanced than SenseUI. You get features like minimizing the screen along with some great gestures for operating camera and taking screen shots which you would really find useful. Also, battery life is exceptional in A8..also it charges your phone quickly than E9+ surprising but true.
If you are getting Snapdragon variant for A8, then you can go for E9+.
