Description
Enjoy an expansive view on the Galaxy A8 with the Infinity Display. It's a beautiful, large display that extends from side to side for an expanded screen that you'll love to see. Taking stunning photos on the Galaxy A8 is as easy as tapping the shutter. The dual front camera innovates selfies and wefies, putting the focus on you and your friends so you can capture moments in another way. And with the rear 16MP camera, the surrounding scene will come out bright and clear, too. Add flair and fun to your selfies with Live Focus mode on the dual front camera. It blurs the background, adding bokeh so you and your friends stand out. Afterwards, you can readjust the focus to your taste. And by enabling Beauty effect before taking the photo, selfies and wefies come out stunning.
Whether out at night or caught in the dark, you'll capture the scene clearly with the improved low-light capability on the Galaxy A8's rear camera. Its bright f/1.7 lens, larger pixels, and bigger sensor bring in light from the environment to make photos crisp and detailed. Easily find the image you want with the gallery search bar. As you search, the gallery analyzes your photos and pulls out relevant pictures, even displaying them by category. Effortlessly conserve mobile data and battery life with adaptive Wi-Fi control on the Galaxy A8. It remembers where you've previously connected to Wi-Fi and turns on to instantly connect when you're in range. And when you leave the service range, Wi-Fi shuts off to keep your battery from draining. Unlocking is as easy as taking a selfie or scanning your finger. With face recognition and the fingerprint scanner, accessing your phone is quick and convenient.
