Samsung Galaxy A8 G8850 Star 64 GB White 4G, New, GSM Unlocked
White is the finish of this new Samsung Galaxy A8 G8850 Star 64GB, a 4G GSM Unlocked phone with Live Focus dual rear cameras and a 24-megapixel selfie camera. White A8 Star units go to marketplace dealers who list the model on its camera specification, and to exporters who want a second color beside black in a mixed carton.
The Samsung Galaxy A8 Star, model SM-G8850, is a mid-2018 large-screen phone sold in Asia and Latin America (and as the A9 Star in China): a 6.3-inch Full HD+ Super AMOLED display with slim bezels, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 660, 4 GB of RAM, 64 GB of storage with microSD expansion, a dual rear camera with 24 and 16-megapixel sensors and Live Focus, a 24-megapixel front camera, a 3700 mAh battery, USB-C, Always On Display, Bixby Home, Dual Messenger, App Pair, and Secure Folder.
TG Wireless sells the A8 Star to exporters and marketplace dealers who want a big-screen Samsung with strong cameras for markets where the G8850 bands fit, and to buyers who prefer the Snapdragon chip over Exynos.

Condition: New
Brand new units in the original box with the original in-box accessories as listed. Nothing has been activated or reconditioned. If your channel needs sealed retail packaging rather than open-box new, say so when you request a quote so the account manager can confirm how the lot is packed.
Network and compatibility
The Galaxy A8 Star is a 4G LTE phone with VoLTE in its home markets, so the US 2G and 3G retirements do not disable it by themselves. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. The G8850 was sold in Asia and Latin America, not by US carriers, so US VoLTE and carrier acceptance are not assured; confirm with the carrier before buying for domestic activations. It takes a nano-SIM, with dual-SIM variants in some regions.
Resale fit
- Export to Southeast Asia, India, and Latin America, where the A8 Star was sold and its bands match.
- Marketplace sellers listing a 6.3-inch Samsung with a 24 MP dual camera at a mid-range price.
- Enthusiasts who want a Snapdragon-powered Samsung from the 2018 A series.
