In the past years, Samsung has transformed themselves into a smartphone mega-giant. They first built a name for themselves when they released the first phone in the Galaxy series. Since then, they have amazed the world with the preceding phones, but most recently the Galaxy S5. The next big phone they are working on to blow us away with the the Samsung Galaxy Alpha. There is only limited confirmed information available but one thing we have learned is that Samsung just recently filed a trademark in the United States for the Galaxy Alpha name which leads us to believe this is going to be the phone of the future we're all anticipating.
Samsung Galaxy Alpha Release Dubai Date
From what we have learned about the Galaxy Alpha so far, you should be expecting a higher-end model of the Galaxy S5 with a slightly higher price tag. If you were impressed with the S5, you are sure to be blown away with the Alpha as it's supposed to be Samsung's best phone yet.
We aren't sure yet if it's going to be released as part of the Galaxy series or just be titled the Galaxy Alpha but we will learn soon enough on the release date. Due to the less than anticipated sales of the Galaxy S4, the Alpha is planned to be released some time in the 3rd quarter of this year. This way, while others are anticipating the arrival of other smartphones to be released next year, the momentum of sales will hang on for a while.
Confirmed Speculations
Not only have some minor specs leaked, but the overall concept as well as designs are now available for the public to see. The design appears to showcase an all metal frame with a perforated back which is similar to the appearance of the Galaxy Tab S tablet. This would be the first phone developed by Samsung to be encased in brushed metal. We are also expecting two color options to be available including bronze and white. The width is expected to be only a mere 6 mm thick and the price should be around AED 3000 .
One of the confirmed specs of the Galaxy Alpha is the dimension of the phone, measuring 4.7". This is smaller than the Galaxy Note 4 but more conservative for the every day user. Not yet confirmed but rumored is a octa-core Exynos 5 processor and an Android 4.4.2 Kitkat mobile OS. Samsung first turned themselves into the smartphone mega giant that they are by switching from their own OS to the Android OS so anything other than that for the Alpha would be a huge let down. There will also hopefully be the same fingerprint scanner incorporated into the Alpha that was featured on the Galaxy S5.
The Bottom Line
What has been confirmed so far is enough to get the public excited for the Samsung Galaxy Alpha Dubai release but still leave us impatiently waiting for more. Hopefully within the next month or so, the Alpha will be released and all the rumors will turn into reality and we will all be able to experience the futuristic smartphone we are all hoping for.
