I used to be a samsung galaxy alpha user, I must say this was one of the most good looking phones I had,it had a silver frame & looked very premium the camera was decent for that time.
It had an Amoled screen as much as I can remember and I used to buy cases which I cant find anymore, the phone itself had a great functionality but the battery was pretty rough for a samsung device you could imagine but I think it had fast charging so that would have helped but I remember being super frustrated at one time with that device and afterwards never bought a samsung phone again, it ended in a bad experience.
But ever since I never got the chance to buy samsung the prices have gone way too high now where I live, so even for mid end phones we dont get the same sleek designs now.
I would say I liked the phone's look the most as ot reminded me of samsung note 4 and It could support some touch pens too so I liked the utility of it.
Looking back, I think I do desire to own a modern looking phone but I'm not sure if the quality is the same as samsung phones have changed alot

Gsmarena, make a good 3D view for this smartphone like all the other phones you do. Such an iconic and beautiful design deserves it. It was the first Samsung phone with metal frame, original colors and also a flagship back at its time. It should have a stunning 3D view. Such a beautiful phone.

The worst was that I did not make any backup of my photos or any other personal files, so there gone. I still feel extremely sad about it :(.

Now, for the IC reballing, if it will succeed and turn on your phone, then you are extremely lucky. IC reballing usually fails (for phone motherboards) but try it! I am curious if will succeed.

MD. Azmal Haque, 02 Nov 2022Is it possible to fix my alpha? Should i try ic revolving ... moreHad the same issue years ago. The motherboard could not be fixed, meaning that my phone was dead. So, the only solution was to replace the motherboard, but no genuine motherboards existed at that time, and I don't believe you will find one in 2022. The only thing you can do is to buy a new phone and face the bitter truth, that you will never ever turn on your phone, never again. The design of galaxy Alpha was and it still iconic, so keep your phone, even if it will not turn on.
