Aspera AS8 goes a few steps further than our AS5 in redefining the entry level price point for smartphones. Featuring NFC, AS8 can enable contactless payments using Google Wallet. Simply download Google Wallet from Google Play Store, add your bank card to Google Wallet and tap to pay everywhere contactless payments are accepted.
Performance is another great feature of AS8, with a 1.6 GHz octa-core processor and clever use of virtual RAM, allocated from unused ROM. The installed 2GB RAM can be effectively boosted to 3GB RAM which helps applications launch faster and run faster. The result is a surprisingly strong performance at this price point.
A removable 4000mAh battery is enough to power you throughout the day and more. A 6.3' HD+ display is great for browsing, emails and messaging. Cameras are 8MP rear and 5MP front facing, enabling face recognition. Dual 4G sim cards enable flexible usage as you can have 2 separate phone numbers.
