The Samsung Galaxy A8 Star was launched in China originally as the Galaxy A9 Star but the handset is now also arriving in India. Amazon.in didn't keep any secrets on the new landing page of the upcoming device as it showed the exact phone. The page says, "Get set to meet the Star". Now that's pretty explicit, isn't it? That's not all, the Galaxy A8 Star will cost at least Rs 30,000, hints the new landing page.
