After its debut in China, Samsung has launched its slimmest smartphone, the Galaxy A8 in India. Priced at Rs 32,500, the Samsung Galaxy A8 is just 5.9mm thick but Of Course, it isn't the slimmest in the market. Handsets like Gionee Elife S7, Oppo R5 and Vivo X5Max are 5.5mm, 4.85mm and 4.75mm thick or rather thin respectively.
The Samsung smartphone will be available in Black, White, and Gold colour variants from Monday.
In terms of specifications, the Samsung Galaxy A8 features a 5.7-inch full-HD display with 1080 x 1920 pixels of resolution, It is powered by an octa-core Samsung Exynos 5430 processor instead of the 64-bit Qualcomm Snapdragon 615 processor used in the China variant. It is paired with 2GB RAM. The Android 5.1.1 Lollipop-based smartphone runs TouchWiz UI on top.
