Samsung unveils budget phones

Samsung just launched a budget phone that brings good news for the Galaxy S9

Samsung on Tuesday unveiled a whole new generation of affordable smartphones, the Galaxy A8 and Galaxy A8+ devices that produce a few of the Galaxy S8's best features more affordable. 

Buyers searching for phones with Infinity Displays that don't break the bank will be able to check on these out in stores in early January in markets round the world. But the best thing about the Galaxy A8 is so it brings good news about the following Samsung flagship, the Galaxy S9.

That's right, the fingerprint sensor is placed under the single-lens camera, a centrally located position which will surely be convenient to use. The flash, meanwhile, is positioned to the proper of the camera module. It sure appears like Samsung learned its lesson the hard way and it's adapting accordingly. The fingerprint placement on the Galaxy S8 and Note 8 models received plenty of criticism from users. 

It's very likely exactly the same camera and fingerprint sensor design is going to be utilized in other Samsung phones, including the S9 and Note 9 flagships of 2018. In the end, that's what all the leaks say. We have even Galaxy S9 3D renders predicated on leaked CAD schematics that show exactly the same rear design. 

The Galaxy A8 has one other interesting feature, a dual-lens front camera that's supposed to supply users better selfies, filled with camera effects seen on the Galaxy Note 8, which has a rear-facing dual shooter. It'll be interesting to see perhaps the Galaxy S9 will get a dual camera on the front. Rumors claim that only the Plus model is in for a double cam upgrade, but we're speaing frankly about the phones rear camera module. 

Pricing details aren't readily available for the Galaxy A8 models, but Samsung will probably reveal them in the coming weeks.
