Yusuffathur, 18 Dec 2020Is it good ? I have plan to buy the Galaxy A8 2018 for my s... moreI've got my A8 on sale in 2019 and was praising it (you can find my earlier comments here). But I don't use it now: main camera is truly bad, compression wipes out all details, photos look more like 3MP, not 12. Even in daylight (in addition to known nighttime failures). (For that reason I can't trust photo quality reviews here.)
Exynos CPU was bugging me too, freezing phone occasionally in the everyday apps (I'm not a gamer).
But for people who don't care about photo quality this is an excellent well-built phone, probably the last good mid range one from Samsung. Later they started cutting corners where they shouldn't, and the quality of mid range phones went down.
(Looking at all the issues reported for S20 FE, Samsung might be screwing now lower premium segment too.)

      I have this phone for almost 2 years, contract due for upgrade soon...
      Phone is superb for the price and handle big games with no problems, my favorite is cyber hunter. Camera is ok for the price and storage while only 32gb(my model) with micro SD I had no problems. This phone compared to some of new phones in its price range comes on top, not alot phones comes with ip68 nor do they come in glass with gorilla protection.

                                      I have and advice. Buy buy buy this miracle.
                                      Almost 2 years i got it and faced any issue at all.
                                      Screen and touch are an perfection.
                                      Camera sound and battery life just great. Charging time and stability too.
                                      Very responsive at commands.

                                        I wonder, why recently samsung overflooding market with A and M series? They must make successor of this phone. Best midrange phone for me.. unfortunately it's not upgraded to android 10
