The Samsung Galaxy Alpha's metal frame makes it the most luxurious feeling Galaxy phone to date. Its more compact size makes it comfortable to use
It has loads of power and its camera is great
Best looking Samsung
12MP camera
High resolution screen
The editors didn't like
No expandable memory
Disappointing screen
No expandable storage
TouchWiz is still a problem
Screen is only 720p
It has a disappointingly low-resolution screen
Which is a particular shame given the extremely high price of the phone. It loses the waterproofing of the S5 and there's no microSD card slot for expanding the storage either
The Samsung Galaxy Alpha is an expensive treat. It delivers, but at a heavy price tag. It is made for all those who desire a premium form factor, but not a larger-than-life form factor. Its only competition is the Sony Xperia Z3 Compact which comes at a m...
The Samsung Galaxy Alpha camera experience is definitely something that you can fall in love with. The color temperature is generally warm, but color recognition is absolutely great – Autofocus though, is the crown jewel of this camera – the autofocus spe...
Too expensive, A full HD display expected at that price, Mediocre camera
It is easily the best looking device we have ever seen from Samsung. Period. But that cannot change the fact that the Galaxy Alpha is almost embarrassingly high-priced. Yes, it does have designer looks and is beautifully designed but at Rs. 37,999, it cos...
Good design, High performance, TouchWiz UI (smooth & featurerich)
No mciroSD card support
Samsung Galaxy Alpha is available for Rs 39,000 in Indian market which is a decent price tag for a compact and good looking device. It is a great device in terms of design and performance. It is a perfect device for anyone looking to buy a high end device...
Tough build, Incredible camera, Good battery backup
Expensive, Storage not expandable
Good things come in small packages and Samsung Galaxy Apha lives up the tough saying with its tough built. With all advanced software a high end Samsung phone asks of, it's fitted with an Octa core chipset to take care of heavy multitasking and gaming gre...
You really have to hold the Alpha in your hand and use it for a while to realize how impressive it feels. Finally, Samsung can be commended on making a beautiful phone with attention to detail in etching that metal frame so stylishly. It's hard to convinc...

The Samsung Galaxy Alpha is the first Galaxy phone to carry a metallic frame. It looks amazing and is very thin and light. The camera and sound output was amazing and the UI performs brilliantly without any lags. The biggest con about this phone is its pr...
So do you go for the Galaxy Alpha? If you find the Xperia Z3 compact really pricey (which it is) then Alpha comes across as a better option for lower price. Effective display, slick interface and great looks make Alpha desirable. But cranky hardware, less...
The Samsung Galaxy Alpha not only looks good but also performs equally well. With a 4.7 inch touch screen area it is easier to operate it with a single hand. The Frosted Gold Alpha I guess looks the best.The Alpha is priced at approx Rs. 38,000. It is pri...
