Samsung Galaxy A8 (2018) leaked in images, show off thin-bezel display

Samsung is on a roll, as the company gears up to announce a range of smartphones in the year to come. The key highlight will definitely be the Galaxy S9 and the S9+. It is also planning for a foldable phone for 2018. Alongside these phones, the South Korean smartphone manufacturer is reportedly planning to announce a couple of follow-up devices like the Galaxy A5 (2018) and Galaxy A7 (2018). Rumours about the two aforementioned phones have been making rounds on the web for quite some time now. It seems Samsung is working on another follow-up phone, aka the Galaxy S8 (2018). Well, to recall, there was no A8 (2017) edition — and the last one was the A8 (2016). But then, going by the rumours surfacing the web, Samsung is looking forward to announcing the Galaxy A8 (2018) edition next year.

Galaxy A8 (2018) has been leaked in pictures — which show off a thin-bezel display. This means, that the smartphone will most likely ship with a near edge-to-edge Infinity screen much like this year’s flagship phones — Galaxy S8 and the Galaxy S8+, and also the Galaxy Note 8. This compared to the phone’s successor is much improved and enhanced in terms of design. The Samsung Galaxy A8 (2018) comes with a 5.7-inch touchscreen display with a resolution of 1080 pixels by 1920 pixels.

Well, not much has been revealed about the smartphone yet. All that the leaked images show is the display, and some parts of the front camera setup. It seems the upcoming Galaxy A8 (2018) may come with a dual selfie camera setup. This also means, apart from the display, the A8 (2018) edition phone will have a major refreshment in the camera department as well. To recall, the Samsung Galaxy A8 (2016) come with a 16-megapixel primary camera on the rear and an 8-megapixel front shooter for selfies.

Much like the A8 (2018), Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy A5 (2018) and Galaxy A7 (2018) are also tipped to come with S8-like infinity display. Both the smartphones have been leaked in images, and rumours about them have also been making rounds on the internet for quite a while now.

Going by them, both the Galaxy A5 (2018) and Galaxy A7 (2018) are said to come with near edge-to-edge screens and share the same design palate. As per the leaked images, the Galaxy A5 (2018) will be available in four colours and see a major design shift in the positioning of the fingerprint scanner. Furthermore, both the phones are also seen having a dedicated Bixby button. In other words, Samsung may be looking to bring its virtual assistant to more phones in the days to come.

Both the Galaxy A5 and the Galaxy A7 (2018) are clearly going to be bezel-less phones although the rest of their specification details still remains a mystery. Samsung, following the usual routine, is expected to announce its A series 2018 editions in the early part of the year. Well, it is noteworthy that, the South Korean smartphone manufacturer hasn’t confirmed the coming of any of its A-series phones yet.
