Most of the specs listed on TENAA are in line with the specs leaked earlier. The Galaxy A8 will have a thickness of just 5.94mm making it the thinnest Samsung phone till date. The screen size will be 5.7 inch and not 5.5-inch which was rumored earlier. The FCC listing does not reveal any useful details of the phone, but it does state its SAR values.

Accoring to TENAA the Samsung Galaxy A8 will feature 5.7-inch (1920 x 1080 pixels) Full HD Super AMOLED display and powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 615 octa-core processor (1.5GHz Quad A53 + 1.0 GHz Quad A53) paired with Adreno 405 GPU and 2GB RAM. The phone houses 16GB internal storage, further expandable up to 128GB via microSD card slot. It runs Android 5.1 Lollipop.

The listing does not reveal the battery capacity of Galaxy A8, but earlier rumors claim that it will have a 3000mAh battery. Also the phone is rumored to house a finger print sensor on the home button.

We can expect the Galaxy A8 to go official soon, since it has received TENAA and FCC certification.
