            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+.

                zz, 26 Oct 2015Looking for best quality photography (with no blurring) phone with dual sim - A-8 or HTC E9+ o... moreA8 becuase you mentioned no blurring. All plain vanilla OS phone eg.Nexus series or Moto phones have issues of photos getting blurred, they capture images quickly but when you see these images on big screen you find them blurry.

                    summit, 06 Nov 2015when using a8 camera in PRO mode does this have manual focus on subjects like the s6? Yes, except for Slow motion video capture you get almost all camera modes.
                    Pro mode-YES

                        AnonD-243518, 10 Nov 2015Hy guys how much time galaxy A8 battery is taking to fully charge from 0 to 100%1 and half hour.

                        It comes with a charger which charges faster than what you get in the other smartphones.

It has got exceptional battery life. I bet you would never go wrong with this one.

                          If not, then you can go for Alpha for that matter.

If you are getting Snapdragon variant, the power wise both these phones are same only you get fingerprint sensor and newer touchwiz which is not worth putting in 8k more for.

                              Saifu, 16 Nov 2015Is samsung galaxy A8 a better phone to buy???which ones better between A8 and note 4?Reasons to not opt for Note 4:
                              Note 4 comes with older Touchwiz which does not support themes. Also, certain gestures such as triple touch to make screen small are missing. The fingerprint sensor feels too damn old when compared to any phone launched in this year. The faux leather back has become old style statement as far as samsung phones are concerned.

                              If nothing amongst above bother you, definitely go for Note 4.

                                  Hi Faisal,

                                  I must say this is really tough. Last year's flagship G3 is no doubt a power house but let me tell you that go for A8 if you want great battery life along with fingerprint sensor and great looks.

                                  Go for Lg G3 ionly if you want raw power in order to play games and watch videos.
