Samsung Galaxy A8

     You don't need to be the best if you can be the crowd favorite. The Samsung Galaxy A8

samsung's thinest smartphone yet and is certainly learning from the note 5 in of respects,

but while it can't beat it on features. It's likely to rival it on popularity.

The Galaxy A8 is the biggest of the A-series with a 5.7 AMOLED screen like the last three

notes. It only has a 1080p revolution though, like the note3, so it's not as superbly crisp

as the Note 5 but not bad either at 368ppi.

    Like the Galaxy Note 5, the A8 has a metal frame, but it's lighter and thinner. At only 5.9

mm thick it limbos lower than than any other Galaxy yet and  even most of other phones 

on the market. Surprisingly, this didn't come at the expense of battery capacity- the 

Galaxy A8 actually tops the Note5 in this category.

The Good news keeping rolling in when we got to the camera too. A 16 mp shooter Adorns

the back with an f/1.9 aperture. For Selifies there is 5mp  f/1.9 camera. What's missing

compared the Note5's camera is OIS and 2160p video capture.
