You can already get an S8 for €500, and an S8+ for around €570.

I wonder what the real price for the A8 and A8+ will be.

    Jzjz, 22 Dec 2017One plus 5 or 5tWell that is a flagship killer not a midranger and the price is higher than A8+ 2018(expected)

        Kyo, 22 Dec 2017Problem is OnePlus is still considered a Chinese phone and ... moreI see it is OK to be racist when it comes to Chinese products like OnePlus. By why don't you feel the same way when they make western branded products.
        So you will rather pay more just for a name. Westerners (and some fickle minded Asians) with their supremacists ideologies. It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not, most of your electronic tech is dveloped or made in Asia (Taiwan, Japan, Korea ,China, India). Try comparing the quality of iPhones and OnePlus yourself and don't just believe what you read on your biased media.

          What??? 500 euro??? S7 is 450 euro in Bulgaria and it is 3 times faster than this A8. This will be a sluggish phone with infinite dispay. Does not worth the money at all.

                        That price shows exactly what is wrong with the incumbents, they put everyone else out of business and now jack prices.

                            Its samsung speciality to sell a mid ranger for a price of an overpriced flagship.
                            Oneplus 3 is much better and cost much less for example. And its a much older phone.
                            And there are milions of other examples we can really use.
                            And as i know Samsung after 2-3 months price will drop by 20-30%

                              both devices are a "no go" with the above mentioned price tags, imo.

                                I don't think the price difference between Vietnam and Europe is that great. The price for the Vietnam market sounds more reasonable.

                                  Now why shouldn't I buy a Note 7 FE which is currently selling for $460 over this 2 midrange ?

                                      Samsung is making a big mistake with this year's line up. Not with specs, but with price. It is no longer worth buying the A series for 500 or so dollars. That's ridiculous! You can get a fairly good S7 Edge for lower. Which has 4k Recording, 1440p Super Amoled Screen. And a way better Exynos 8890.

                                        You can get S8 for this price
