Samsung confirms Galaxy A8 (2018) and A8+ (2018) release date

Samsung has confirmed the release date for the newly-unveiled Galaxy A8 (2018) and A8+ (2018) smartphones. During a recent event in Vietnam, the South Korean company confirmed the devices will go on sale there January 6 onwards.

This is inline with the 'early January' release time frame we have been hearing so far. Of course, release date will likely vary from region to region, so there's still no information on when other key markets will get these phones.

In Vietnam, the devices will carry a price tag of VND 10,990,000 (around $482) and VND 13,490,000 (around $592). This compares to €499 ($590) and €599 ($710) tags the handsets are expected to carry in Europe.
