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.

      The side is metal but the back is "still" plastic. How can they call it "Premium Device"? It even just have metal on the side not the whole body.

        ThunderCrackR, 04 Aug 2014Really, not bad! Those sides are interesting! But only 720p... more720p is sharp enough on a 4.7" screen. Check out the Moto X which has 4.7" with 720p. And this Galaxy Alpha with be AMOLED which will be more vibrant. Also being at a lower resolution and AMOLED it will use less battery.

        Choosing 4.7" is obviously to compete against the upcoming iPhone 6.

            This phone looks like S2, Same-sung is really boring with this 'same design - new model' thing

              720p? Same design principles as the S5/S4/S3? WTF?

                  SIM free, i will give US $380. Not more than that. Otherwise choose Xiaomi Mi4 64gb.

                    The design is not much different than other models. What I like is that the body is made from metal, something "fresh " from Samsung. I hope this phone will be launched in my country so I can take a look at it as well as have a feel of its metal body.

                      ah God. not again! this one looks a lot like the ugly duckling, Samsung Galaxy S2. Is samsung seriously out of ideas to create a good design for a smartphone?

                        RBG or Pentile screen matrix?
                        If pentile -> not top quality resolution.

                            It looks pretty. I've been wanting a device like that. 720p is not much of an issue, there is no difference between S4 and S3 screens other than the new amoled things. And I hope this wont overheats up like my S4. I am writing this and my hands are sweating at the moment.

                              Looks like from 2010-2011 samsung smart phone line up.

                                For me the design is still great and i love it! I just hope those who have negative comment with the design is not an iphone user since the iphone too have same design.Years back I had a 3Gs and sold it the time I got 4s.Happen that i also used s2 together with 4s and sold it for newer s4.In short I have been using both brands and for me I have no complain with their designs.Different individuals means different taste.Just saying...peace...

                                      Really, not bad! Those sides are interesting! But only 720p? On 4.7? In second half of 2014? Really? Hope this info is wrong!

                                        I really hop this isn't intended as a flagship. 720p screen? Really? If it's AMOLED with a pentile matrix it's going to look like shit just like the Galaxy S3's screen which was a real shocker
