Samsung Galaxy A8s arrives in South Korea as Galaxy A9 Pro (2019)

The year started with the promising news that the Samsung Galaxy A8s with Infinity-O display might escape China and hit other countries. Today the Korean company announced on its website that its domestic market would also see the phone, although under a different moniker - Samsung Galaxy A9 Pro. It will arrive on February 28 with a battery pack as a gift for some Samsung members.

To differentiate the phone from the three-year-old midranger Galaxy A9 Pro (2016), we’ll refer to the new device as Galaxy A9 Pro (2019). The device has Snapdragon 710 chipset and only one memory option - 6 GB RAM + 128 GB storage. The battery is 3,400 mAh, and the OS is Android Pie. It has three cameras on the back - 24 MP main snapper, 10 MP telephoto lens and a 5 MP depth sensor that cannot be used on its own.
