Samsung seems to have heard the complaints made against its Galaxy S5, the all-plastic design was not considered suitable for excellent performance and price. By formalizing the launch of the Alpha, the manufacturer confirms a renaissance in design on the entire Galaxy range, notably with the use of natural materials like brushed metal. Wise to counter players who bet successfully on the design, such as Apple’s iPhone 5S or even more recently, Huawei Ascend with its P7, but not without consequences for the level of equipment decision.

Alpha Galaxy: a rather attractive equipment …

AC, mid-range, the Alpha does not display a “small” screen Super AMOLED 4.7 inches. However, he has a strong heart octo-processor (probably the last Exynos manufacturer based on 2 quad-core chips, like the Galaxy Tab 10.5 S) and a photo sensor to 12 megapixels capable of shooting 4K. In addition, this smartphone supports 4G Category 6 (300 Mbit / s for download, not yet deployed in France). In short, a phone that is not lacking in appeal.

… but has some limitations

Far and finesse featherweight force – 6.7 mm for 115 grams or even better than the Galaxy S4 – the comfortable internal memory of 32 GB of Alpha is not scalable in the absence of MicroSD reader. As for the battery, probably not removable, it is only 1860 mAh against 2600 mAh to 2800 mAh Galaxy S4 and S5 for the Galaxy. The autonomy of the Alpha should not reach the top. The price to pay for a super slim design and probably why Samsung has limited the definition of the mobile screen at 720p

The Alpha Galaxy is expected to begin early September . Samsung has not yet clarified its price or the list of countries. Anyway, this first model benefiting from the 2.0 design manufacturer is a fairly reliable indication of what will be the future Galaxy S6: the top of technology, this time, a case that is a little dream .
