<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\nDisplay-wise, you don\u2019t see that much of a difference. As the A8+\u2019s display is bigger, you\u2019re getting a more immersive experience, which is true. However, it comes with the same Super AMOLED panel and screen resolution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What about screen-to-body ratios? Well, the plus slightly underperforms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You\u2019re getting Android 7.1 out of the box once again. This isn\u2019t surprising as both phones came out at the same time. What is surprising is that both devices rock the same Exynos 7885 chipset. You usually see the plus variants with better CPUs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Its brother can\u2019t be upgraded to Android 10 either.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You\u2019re getting different memory variants<\/strong>. Although they both come with 32 and 64 gigs of space, you\u2019re getting 4 and 6 GB RAM variants in the A8+. As you can imagine, the A8 Plus with 6 GBs of RAM is much snappier than any of the A8 models. Of course, it has a microSD slot too, so expanding its storage is possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\nIt\u2019s not surprising that you\u2019re getting a larger battery this time around. The phone has a battery that\u2019s 500 mAh larger than its counterpart\u2019s. The phone is bigger after all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Although the battery\u2019s larger, it doesn\u2019t last as long as the A8\u2019s<\/strong>. You get half a day from the A8 Plus. <\/p>\n\n\n\nThe same 18 W fast charger comes with the device, in case you\u2019re wondering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In terms of camera specs, the same front and back cameras we met in the A8 is seen again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/span>Conclusion<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\nThe A8\u2019s a phone worth your time. Although it was released 2 years ago, it comes with specs that aren\u2019t too bad for 2020. This is especially true for its camera, screen quality, and processor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, phones these days don\u2019t have that much bezel action going on, so the A8 won\u2019t offer a viewing experience as immersive as newer Samsung devices. Its bezels will give away that it\u2019s old too, along with its size.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The A8 looks great though.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Its alternatives perform better, but they\u2019re newer, so it\u2019s only natural that they outperform it. What\u2019s considerable is that the A8 holds its own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
