User manual shows unannounced Samsung Galaxy A8 and A8 Plus with dual front cameras

Looks like Samsung wants to take on the selfie-centric smartphones from its Chinese competitors. A user manual that’s been uploaded to Samsung’s website shows off two unannounced Galaxy A smartphones that are expected to make their debut at CES 2018. The phones are expected to be called the A8 and A8 Plus to replace the current A5 and A7 phones. The big focus of the new devices are its dual front-facing shooters with Live Focus. There isn’t any information at the moment about how many megapixels these cameras will have.

Some of the other things we can expect, at least according to the manual, include the display coming with an 18:9 aspect ratio and slim bezels, a new position for the fingerprint sensor below the rear camera, Android 7.1.1 Nougat out of the box, support for Android Pay and Bixby, USB Type-C port, and an audio jack.
