The Samsung Galaxy A8 Star will go sale this weekend, on 7 July, to be exact.

The Galaxy A series is Samsung's answer to the burgeoning mid-range market and so the Galaxy A8 Star features a premium design and suitably high specs, but a much more accessible price compared to its flagship Galaxy S phones.

Though the display of the Galaxy A8 Star doesn't quite stretch to the edges like the flagship Galaxy S9, it is still a sleek-looking phone. It also features a premium glass sandwich design and has a metal body. It will be available in black and white.
