Full Galaxy A8 dimensions pop up, just 5.94mm thin, price pegged at $500
Sounds great so far, given that the A-series offers one of the most compact and pretty Androids out there, and the Galaxy A7 even topped our list of the thinnest, lightest metal phones in the universe of the green robot. The Galaxy A8 is shaping up to be at least as compact for its largish screen size, but how compact exactly? Well, we had one leaked screenshot of its dimensions, and now a spy shot from Malaysia, where the phone's launch is pegged as imminent, confirms them. The Galaxy A8 will be 158 x 76.77 x 5.94mm large, which is a pretty good achievement for an all-metal 5.7-incher with a 3000+ mAh battery.
Last but not least, the Malaysian source claims that the phone will be launched there with a RM1,888 price, which translates to about $500, or as much as was tipped the other day. This will make it the most expensive phone in the A-series, as the Galaxy A7 can now be found for about $400, while the A8 will come to fill the gap between the S6 and the A7, apparently. Any takers?
