Samsung Galaxy A8s With Camera Cutout Gets Certified By FCC
The Samsung Galaxy A8s was teased by Samsung earlier this month. Since then, the phone has been making headlines for its unique camera cut-out.

Now, it seems like the launch of the smartphone is near as it has been certified by the FCC. This tells us some of its specifications too!
