Samsung have announced the Galaxy A8 and A8 Plus, which are coming next year with a whole host of popular features from their flagship phones including the infinity display and enhanced camera technology.

You’ll be able to take great selfies with the 16MP F1.7 rear camera and 16MP and 8MP F1.9 dual front camera. The front camera actually has two cameras, so you can switch between close up shots or portrait photos with a crisp background. The camera takes great pictures in low-light conditions and you can customise the results with stickers. For Instagram fans who can’t resist taking a photo of their meals, there is even a ‘Food Mode’.

Video digital image stabilisation technology should help prevent shaky videos and there is a feature to create timelapse recordings.

The new infinity display is great for watching movies or videos with the screen reaching all the way across the edges of the phone. The screen is supported by curved glass on the front and back and both phones will be available in black, orchid grey, gold and blue.

The Galaxy A8 and A8 Plus feature an ‘Always On Display’ so you can see notifications without unlocking them. They will also have NFC capabilities, so you can pay for stuff with your mobile using Samsung Pay.

You can get active with the phones as they have water and dust resistance and they will have the ability to expand their storage with MicroSD cards up to an extra 256GB.

The Samsung Galaxy A8 ad A8 Plus will be available from Direct Mobiles from April 2018, so register your interest here now https://directmobiles.co.uk/coming-soon.php
