If you are bothered with low light camera's result of A8 2018, the old premium Samsung phones, like S7 or S8 (sorry, we don't talk about other brands) have a better result much in low light condition.
For Samsung M20, well it may have a slightly better chipset, but I do not think that the performance and the camera is better than A8 2018.

    Outdoor image quality are good. Front facing camera are also great. But yeah...
    And look there is samsung M20 come out... cheaper with better chipset..

      Galaxy A8 is just for people who want a just good smartphone in every features, including NFC. You won't be dissapointed.

But for now, there are more better choices in the market. I have heard about Redmi note 7, it is a low cost smartphone with better chipset and better camera than a8.
        I often feel disappointed when I want to take a picture and the results are not so good ...

            Hi!
            I am looking to buy a smartphone and dont want to spend more than 300€.
            My question is, do you think this is a good choice or better buy a more recent one? I also saw huawei mate 20 lite, but didnt like the design a lot, and nokia 7.1, but I would only consider it if I buy it for 300, because at the moment is at 360, too expensive for what you get.

                Chris22, 30 Jan 2019In Europe came the update for the month of January to A8 20... moreYes, In Europe we have the January patch already

                  In Europe came the update for the month of January to A8 2018? In Romania, we have not received anything yet! I'm still stuck on December 1 2018. The A5 2017 received the package for the month of January over a week ago but the A8 is still waiting!

                    LYREA8, 27 Jan 2019Well i guess it's just my phone then... i dunno why.My suggestion would be to, maybe, change charging routine (don't charge it to 100%, or don't wait for battery level to drop really low)

                                  Anonymous, 23 Jan 2019does back of samsung a8 have gorilla glass? I am not sure the rear glass of A8 2018 has gorilla protection. So I say NO, but the display has Gorilla 4.

                                    Yuki, 23 Jan 2019I'm from Indonesia too, but my A8 (2018) has no problem at ... moreMine is draining so fast. I never noticed when last time i charge my phone before, because the battery is so good it can last a day. but now like 3 hours and the battery at 64%.
                                    But nothing else than that, everything is fine.
