LED Flash: Yes
The highlighted and most popular feature of the Galaxy A80 is the motorized camera. The Galaxy A80 is the first Samsung Android smartphone with a motorized camera. I am not sure if Samsung has used the feature in any of its previous smartphones.
The motorized feature is incorporated with a slide feature and it allows you to use the back camera as your selfie camera. The sliding mechanism reminds me of the Samsung E250, it’s quite neat.

A 2.2 GHz Octa-core powers the Galaxy A80 and this is coupled with 8GB RAM. The performance profile of the Galaxy A8 makes it one of the most powerful smartphone on the market right now.
Storage-wise, the Samsung Galaxy A80 offers 128GB of internal storage. The smartphone however, lacks a memory card slot. Whereas, 128GB of storage is okay for the average smartphone user, power users who take lots of ultra-HD videos might struggle with the limited storage options offered.
