I'm using the older version of A8 which is a very good phone in terms of watching movies, games outdoor photography etc. But there are certain things I don't like about this phone:

* speaker sound is low.
* battery life is good but takes ages to charge which is really annoying.
* no OIS so pics at times are blurred.

Hope they fix these issues in the new version.

              No OIS for front and rear camera. No auto focus for front camera. So this model is waste.

                          On the Note 7 it was not the USB that was the fault. It was the batteries that were the càuse of the fires.

                            All guys, latest it presently for Chinese markets, maybe by 4th Qtr end intro internationally. Blue wud still be dream, black, gold, white be available. Never like trailing style of Samsung, either launch worldwide or not. For God's sake change style it's become too bored.

                                    No 4K video , No slow motion (120fps), No gyro .... again.

                                    galaxy S4 is better .

                                      I'm not bitching but for that price...I'll clearly and patiently wait for a Xiaomi Mi5s with snapdragon 821 and Ultrasonic fingerprint sensor on the screen. All for $350 MSRP

                                        Borders looks soooooooooooooo much like the iPhone design.

                                        Not that original, huh?
