The Samsung Galaxy A8s is the first smartphone to feature a camera hole for the front camera to solve the notch problem. Samsung calls this the Infinity-O display.
It also has a 6.4-inch FHD+ display, triple rear camera system (24 + 10 + 5 Meggapixels) and a 24 Megapixel front camera.
It runs on an octa core Qualcomm Snapdragon 710 chipset with either 6 or 8GB of RAM and Android 9 Pie operating system. There's a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor too as well as 4G LTE connectivity.
A 3400mAh battery powers the device with fast charging capability.
