Samsung Ghana, in collaboration with Ecobank, launched the latest mobile device from the Samsung Note series with Ecobank offering prospective buyers a flexible payment package.

The Note8 is an improved version of the Note5 with dual cameras; a 12 megapixel rear camera and 8 megapixel at the front.

It is water resistant, meaning users can access their phone in the rain or even when it falls into water.

The Samsung Note8 comes with an S Pen, which is also water resistant, making scribbling and drawing easy for users. It has 6 gigabytes of RAM and a gorilla glass making the screen durable.

Known for its power of innovations, Samsung believes the newly launched Note8 will be a game changer in the industry.

At the Ghana launch, Managing Director of Ecobank Ghana, Dan Sackey announced very exciting and flexible financing arrangements for all patrons of the phone.

He indicated that the bank is in this partnership to offer customers the needed convenience in the purchase of the Samsung Note 8. Mr Sackey therefore encourage all prospective buyers to approach any branch of Ecobank to discuss their personal preferred financing options.

He said Ecobank’s support for Ghanaians to purchase Samsung Note8 with ease, was part of the bank’s digital drive aimed at ensuring as many Ghanaians are included in the benefits of the financial sector through hands-on digital channels.
