While launching its newest smartphone, Aditya Babbar, General

comes with flagship features, never before seen on a smartphone in this price
segment. It defies the ordinary and challenges the status quo. It is a phone
with attitude, in all aspects," he added.
According to hikm, Galaxy A8+'s large screen is supported
with ergonomic curved glass on the back and front. Its sleek glass and metal
frame, smooth curves and comfortable grip make it even easier to watch or
interact with content on phone.
The 6.0” FHD Super AMOLED Infinity Display goes beyond the
bezel with an immersive 18.5:9 display ratio, so that the consumers can view
the whole scene across their screen for the ultimate cinematic experience.
Galaxy's A8+'s 16MP+8MP F1.9 Dual Front Camera allows
consumers to take the type of selfie they want – from close-ups with the
background blurred to portrait shots with a clear and crisp background. With
the advanced Live Focus feature, one can easily adjust the bokeh effect before
or after take the picture to create high-quality images.
The 16MP F1.7 rear camera snaps bright, clear pictures no
matter where we are or what we are doing. From day to night, the advanced
camera helps capture sharp images, even in low-light conditions. The new device
also allows consumers to customize their photos with fun options, from adding
stickers to their selfie or highlighting a culinary extravaganza with Food
Mode. With the virtual assistant Bixby, the Galaxy A8+ seamlessly integrates
your lifestyle.

also equipped with Samsung Pay, allowing users to transact virtually anywhere
they tap or swipe their card. The Galaxy A8+ comes with IP68 certification,
making it water and dust resistance. It is also the first in the A series to
