A set of photos shows Samsung Galaxy Alpha in its full glory

04 August, 2014
The phone packs a 720p display alongside a 12MP camera, but sadly there won't be a microSD card slot.

Honestly, the phone has only metal to show off. I can bet the internal design would be same as most of the Galaxy phones. Also, it has the same design as all the Galaxy but this phone looks a little better than the chickenpox infected Galaxy S5. This phone looks like the Galaxy S2 but the Galaxy S2 looked like iPhone, so this one too looks like iPhone. Well, nothing special about the design. Look at phones such as the Wave series of Samsung and the Omnia HD. Those were some awesome design from Samsung.

    ImpassionedRule , 04 Aug 2014People don't even read anymore. The Exynos chipset is faste... moremaybe but sammy is well known for cheating and falsifying benchmark performance results. After all exynos is sammys own chipset.

        This will have an amoled display and it will miss a sub pixel, so, at 720p it will be a bit meh... Like the S3.

            why would i choose a phone without external card slot. sammy is losing ground everywhere. if this is to release without any "common" features, i'd choose iphone.

                Samsung should change Every Single Icons..

                Every icon looks ugly...
                phone icon messege icon..
                horizontal grid should be vertical now like series 60 v2...
                phone logs must have dedicated button on lower left.

                  People don't even read anymore. The Exynos chipset is faster than the Snapdragon 805. That's pretty damn high specs.

                    I was hoping for a premium galaxy s5 when these rumours started surfacing but these would include killer specs and upgraded everyyhing alo g with metal/ quality frame. But i cant see them releasing 2 different models between now and end of year. I will hold out for the no doubt awesome note 4, im hoping for design change and waterproofing on top of the already wicked note 3. Maybe even bigger screen in same size body would be great but not important. A bit more power and better ram management would be nice. Along with better camera with grest low light also wanted lol....

                      720p ?!! My Galaxy Nexus had 720p on a 4.7" screen years ago; and with those bezels? Samsung you lost a great opportunity to bring a top spec phone with smaller screen which is what many of us want!

                      As it is Droid Mini continues to be the true Mini with great specs, since the Z1 compact is still to huge for a 4.3" phone.

                        Looks like my old S2 with even bigger bezels. Obviously Samsung design is stuck in the past. No wonder their sales are down. LG coming fast...

                          "With a 4.7 inch screen and chamfered edges, this looks like awfully like an iPhone. "
                          Also looks as if Apple hump*d Samsung from the sides....SAMPLE.

                                I didn't see the speaker grill. I guess, it's at the bottom along with mic and USB port.
