Samsung Galaxy A8s will soon go official in the global markets


The Samsung Galaxy A8s is the first smartphone with the Infinity-O display, the display which will be used in Samsung’s Galaxy S10 series. The sales price of the device is 2,900 Yuan, corresponding to approximately $430. Now it looks that the phone is getting ready to be available outside of the Chinese market.

A new version of the phone has been certified by both the FCC and the Wi-Fi Alliance. The A8s’ model number is SM-G887, and this new iteration is SM-G887N. The “N” suffix in Samsung’s naming scheme is usually reserved for devices that are to be sold in its home market, South Korea. The Galaxy A8s smartphone with Infinity-O display may soon appear in the South Korean market. We conclude.

The Galaxy A8s smartphone, which is highly admired by users around the world, is very close to coming to you country, but it is unfortunately not clear when it will be placed on our shelves.
