Samsung has revealed a brand new smartphone now known as the Galaxy Alpha. It is really an important smartphone for Samsung in many respects because it is the initial model taking on “a fresh approach to design”, which we assume to be repeated in the future versions. The Galaxy Alpha eschews the entire plastic body of previous models to be replaced by metallic frame, along with a gentle back cover (without the stitching effect) and also rounded corners.
Samsung has released the 4.7-inch handset to move up from the forthcoming iPhone, stated to be bigger in dimensions.
The Samsung Galaxy Alpha features a 4.7-inch 720p display, Octo-Core processor, 2GB RAM, 32GB of internal storage space, but no memory card support. It comes with a 12MP camera on the front and 2.1MP camera in the rear. The handset is disappointed with a modest 1,860 mAh battery and gives not any water resistance (in contrast to the Galaxy S5).
The Galaxy Alpha has fairly small size of 132.4 x 65.5 x 6.7 mm, with a weight of just 115 grams. Which has a thickness of just 6.7mm additionally it is among the slimmest smartphones in the marketplace. The Samsung Galaxy Alpha is going to kick off at the beginning of September in 5 colors (Frosted Gold, Sleek Silver, Charcoal Black, Dazzling White, and Scuba Blue).
