Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)
| Screen flickering / PWM detected | 242.7 Hz |  | |
The display backlight flickers at 242.7 Hz (worst case, e.g., utilizing PWM) . The frequency of 242.7 Hz is relatively low, so sensitive users will likely notice flickering and experience eyestrain at the stated brightness setting and below. In comparison: 53 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 8719 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 343500) Hz was measured. | |||

Med Galaxy A8 (2018) har Samsung tillverkat en välutrustad mittenskikts-smartphone som har mycket som talar för sig. Designen ser lyxig ut och känns högkvalitativ samtidigt som den är IP68-godkänd. Super AMOLED Infinity-skärmen är visuellt imponerande och är välkalibrerad och ljusstark samtidigt som den också har hög upplösning. Dual-SIM varianten är verkligen Dual-SIM, då expansion med microSD-kort hanteras av en dedikerat plats istället för att man ska behöva välja mellan ett andra SIM-kort eller ett microSD-kort. Selfie-fans får en framåtriktad dual-kamera med bra optik som lämnar rum för tricks samtidigt som den tar bra bilder, något som även gäller den bakre kameran på 16 MP.
Bra prestanda, men för ett tvivelaktigt pris. Galaxy A8 (2018) ger sig själv onödig konkurrens då den snabbare och bättre utrustade toppskikts-modellen Galaxy S8 bara kostar runt 1 000 kronor mer.
Trots dessa positiva aspekter så kommer det ambitiösa utgångspriset på 5 000 kronor troligen skrämma bort en del intresserade köpare. Även om den går att få billigare nu så håller sig Galaxy A8 (2018) prismässigt nära Galaxy S8, som har bättre funktioner och prestanda för bara knappt 1 000 kronor mer, vid skrivande stund. Det finns också alternativ till Galaxy A8 (2018) som är likvärdigt snabba, såsom ASUS ZenFone 4 ZE554KL eller BQ Aquaris X Pro, som finns tillgängliga för 4 500 kronor respektive 3 500 kronor.
