New Delhi: Samsung is all set to
unveil its thinnest Android
smartphone - Galaxy Alpha - in India
at its event on Saturday, September
27. The company has sent out invites
to its press conference in New Delhi.
While the invite does not mention
the product, but a source with
information of the launch plans
confirmed that the company is
indeed unveiling the Galaxy Alpha in
India on Saturday. Samsung would
unveil only one device at tomorrow's
event, added the source.
With the Galaxy Apha, Samsung has
also embraced the metal frame -
quite like its biggest competitor,
Apple. The 4.7-inch Galaxy Alpha
comes enclosed within a metal frame
and its 6.7mm profile makes it the
South Korean electronics giant's
thinnest Android phone (Samsung's
Galaxy S5 measures 8.1mm in
thickness). (Read the Samsung Galaxy
Alpha review)
The Samsung Galaxy Alpha's 4.7" HD
Super AMOLED display has a
resolution of 1280 x 720 pixels and it
is powered by a octa-core (quad
1.8ghz + quad 1.3GHz) or quad-core
2.5GHz processor. Running on
Android 4.4.4 (KitKat), the Galaxy
Alpha has a 12 megapixel rear
camera along with a 2.1 megapixel
front camera.
The phone also includes a fingerprint
scanner, and its removable back
cover has a tactile pattern. With 2GB
RAM and 32GB of internal memory
the Galaxy Alpha doesn't have a
microSD slot and another
disappointment could be the 1,860
mAh battery.
The phone will be available in
Charcoal Black, Dazzling White,
Frosted Gold, Sleek Silver, and Scuba
Blue colour options.
