Mateo, 26 Mar 2019I'm thinking either this phone or the P20 lite, what is the... moreIf you are in Huawei for long times, it is better to have other Huawei phone. If you want to try other new brand i.e this Samsung, why not? This phone is no more than good but no less than good with the premium material like the flagship.
About 32Gb? Well, for me, it is enough as there is dedicated slot for microSD (not shared one). I just need the most important apps that is working for me.
About the battery? Even for the flagship of any brands has the same problem. You must know that A8 2018 is only having 3000mAH, so it is not enough for the whole of the day/24H, but it is sure enough for the working hours/8-9H. In my usage, this phone lasts for at least 12H.
The fast drain battery? Oh well, actually I do not really care with this problem as the battery for any phone is such a "nothing last forever" thing.

I am using Galaxy A8 2018 as my daily drive but never get the heat problem. I am Xiaomi lover, using it till now and I feel Xiaomi phone is heater more than this A8. Sorry for hearing your heat problem.

So basically i bought this phone like 4 days ago and there's one thing that still bothers me.When doing normal tasks (like browsing) the phone is getting around 30-33C. I don't really know is that normal or not.I have searched on the internet for problems like this and it says that around 30C is good.But I fell like this shouldn't be like this , when i'm holding the phone it feels really warm (not hot tho ,idk how 2 explain)If there's someone with A8 pls give me some help if this is normal on not.Thx

I'm thinking either this phone or the P20 lite, what is the battery like after Android 9 update? And is 32 GB enough since I'm doing pretty well with the 16 on my P8 lite 2017 (P9 lite 2017) but after I updated android the battery has become a pure dissapointment

So, it is not related with update or not update the system.

Before the new update . The phone use to ask finger print before switching it off . This just makes it easier for the thieves 2 steel the phone . And turning it off so it cant be traced .

I'm considering this phone. Does anybody know if this phone supports User Input Back Channel (UIBC) when using Miracast? The purpose is if you connect to a Miracast compatible car head unit, you can mirror your phone's screen on your head unit and use the touch screen to control it. I have a Kenwood head unit that does this, but the manual states clearly that the phone must support UIBC. I can't find any information about UIBC on any sites. Would rather not buy a phone just to discover that the S9 doesn't have it. Sony phones have it, but I'm sick of Sony phones and want a change. No idea which brands are doing this.
Also, can you have home screen in landscape mode on this phone?

M E R O, 24 Mar 2019A8 2018 or A50?? LOL
Of course, Galaxy A50 (and above) if:
- the price is the same as A8 2018
- you do not need IP68 and metal frame.
All the rest is more or less equal. I do not mind plastic back as most are using protective back case, which is plastic! I never use case for the phone, anyway, so I consider it as a minus consideration.
