Many of us have seen the commercials of the new phone Samsung Galaxy Alpha.Reviews of many people suggest that by the images the machine seemed that the Korean company Samsung, releasing this phone is going into something even "copy» Apple, to make it competitive on price.Agree: the model also has a neat metal body, large screen, good enough performance.Here, of course, Alpha cheaper same iPhone 5S, positioned at approximately the same level - "nedoflagman" which is close to the top model.In this case, Samsung - S6, in the case of the iPhone - 6 model generation.
Today we tell about what Samsung Galaxy Alpha (reviews which will also be presented in this article) can please their customers.
positioning device
Let's start with a common position with respect to the manufacturer of the smartphone.As already noted, the visual telephone somewhat resembles Apple product for the reason that has similar faces neat metal body is made in a rectangular shape and a strict costs "top" devices.
It should be noted that the Samsung Galaxy Alpha (some reviews sellers nrabate confirm this) does not attempt to create competition flagship - Galaxy S5 and S6.Consequently, the developers deliberately "withdrawn" from the novelty market leadership by offering it at low cost, and making greater emphasis on the flagship (above) phones in their advertising campaigns.Why is that?Let's compare phones Alpha and S5 (S6 as the yet to be released) and understand it yourself.
Comparison with the flagship
In fact, the parameters on which these phones are different, quite a lot.Although, as reported on the Samsung Galaxy Alpha customer reviews, visually average user, these phones can be easily confused - so similar design.But none of that can be said about "stuffing".
At S5 better processor, camera, display, battery, sensor and screen graphics engine (if it is to speak briefly).Plus, the flagship has support USB 3.0, the new OpenVG, the latest OS Lollipop.Meanwhile, Alpha is cheaper and available in a metal case.
So, Samsung purposefully relies on more developed manufacturability of its top model and a "beautiful and classy" way of phone Alpha.And what to pay and how much - to decide, of course, the buyer.
Design and body
But do not be so detailed study Galaxy S5 - today is not this device is subject to our review.We'll talk about what design is our Samsung Galaxy Alpha;reviews about the quality of the build and look for housing, of course, discuss how it lies in the hand and how it is convenient to use.
By design has already been noted that Alpha is very similar to other models of Samsung - is undeniable and obvious fact.Unscripted buyer hardly distinguish it from the S5.In addition, the phone has some features of the "apple" fifth-generation phones (in the sixth they were more smoothed).
The housing is made of metal;more precisely - an aluminum frame around the screen, and cover with plastic dots, which is similar to the cover S5.However, as experts note, the touch at Alpha is less pleasant - sticks to the hand and gives the impression of discomfort.
The phone itself is said about the Samsung Galaxy Alpha G850f reviews have bought, leaves the impression that it was assembled at the highest level.The model no backlash and squeaks - a cover fitted, can be said perfect.Still I want to mention pleasant to touch metal keys adjust the volume, unlock the display and no entry for the memory card.Perhaps in this way the manufacturer wants to make a device more like the iPhone.
Display Galaxy Alpha
display device, of course, slightly worse than the one that is used on the top model.According to official specifications, this display with a resolution 720h1280 points.It also describes how a developer, introduced the technology transfer of clear and rich image HD SuperAMOLED Plus.With it, if you believe in the written buyer of Samsung Galaxy Alpha G850f reviews, screen displays, even better than the top-end version of the iPhone.In this way we can be sure: Samsung is leading the race with Apple is not the first year - the Koreans have the technology to ensure better color reproduction, even in sunlight.
addition, Alpha allows for a wide range of settings in which lighting is possible to select display, which will be more suited to the environment.
Processor and memory devices
According to the official characterization, Alpha runs on eight processor cores, 4 of which have a frequency of 1.8;and 4 - 1.3 GHz.Called the "filling" of the smartphone Exynos 5430, its model used on an experimental basis.
If you do not say these names and figures are encouraged to investigate about Samsung g850 Galaxy Alpha reviews of the owners, who claim that no braking operation of the device is not noticeable.This is confirmed by the fact that the phone has 2 GB of RAM - it virtually any task will be carried out as efficiently as possible, so the novelty overload even the top-end applications on Google Play will not succeed.
The phone, as mentioned above, there are no slots for memory cards microSD.But the device is available with 32 GB of free space, 6 of which are occupied by the operating system.Thus, about 26 GB can be reserved for music, apps, movies.
Operating System
Unlike the "flagship" device coming with Android Lollipop 5.1 (Galaxy S5), Alpha smartphone did not receive operating system updates, so it is proposed with the older and stable KitKat 4.4.4.With it, no problem occurs because the operating system tailored to the hardware component is almost perfect, the problems that were in the first users of version 5.0.2, the owners of Alpha will not arise.
Even if we take into account of the Samsung Galaxy Alpha reviews of the owners, they argue that the system functions smoothly, has a lot of options for customization, individualization of the device, so it is able to meet any requirements of the buyer.
Battery Alpha
In fact, the technical characteristics of the battery is 1860 mAh capacity.At Galaxy S5 it is, for instance, 2500 mAh.Private buyer may assume that because of the weaker battery has a smaller smartphone Alpha uptime.Like, can not work for a long time required to perform all the tasks, the phone Samsung Galaxy Alpha.Reviews of actual users - on the contrary, deny this assertion.In fact, the smartphone can be called quite hardy, and the reason - not the battery capacity.
In fact, besides mAh quantities which characterize the battery, it is also important to pay attention to intake charge.And it is an order from Alpha reduced through the use of the updated processor.As a result - less heated smartphone even when working with bulky, requiring a large amount of resources applications, so the duration of the phone increases by an order.
camera smartphone
Now, after reviewing the reviews and features about the appearance and operation of smartphone also does not hurt to mention the camera device.Again, if we compare it with the Galaxy S5, then the Alpha 12 megapixel resolution (16 megapixel against at the flagship version).
However, if we take into account the quality of the resulting image, the difference is not so noticeable.At least, not much behind the S5 smartphone Samsung Galaxy Alpha.Reviews of ordinary shoppers indicate that everyday life and create a normal camera pictures Alpha grabs his head.In addition, this smartphone applied technology that enables high-quality shoot 4K video.Whether the opportunity any particular user to take - a moot point.And, of course, on your smartphone it is a good flash that allows you to take pictures even in low light.
Cost Galaxy Alpha
In several of the largest retail chains capital, you can find this model for 24 990 rubles.And some stores offer additional accessories, services, or even start buying for the purchase of the phone with them.
Is this the price of such a device?Hard to say.Overall, the model is a stylish, thin enough, ergonomic and attractive.However, there is a Samsung Galaxy Alpha Gold reviews in which people do not recommend buying this phone because of the high costs and the apparent inconsistencies of its phone capabilities.
Well, in this regard, all strictly individually.Agree: someone might argue that the iPhone is not worth the money, and something will be right.However, this does not prevent Apple making millions selling their devices.
Where to buy a smartphone?
This question is quite simple.Determine the order in which it is best to purchase a device can be based on the fact, do you know for sure that you need a Samsung Galaxy Alpha Black.Reviews of many phone buyers are given in this article and in real shops, you can come and feel the texture of his own enclosure, hold it in your hands, browse through the menu.So, at least you will know that you are buying.
As for direct order trends, it is possible to arrange without any problems to the trading network, where you will find a lower price.And this will help many aggregators prices.In the end, the service in most stores is the same as the warranty from the manufacturer is everywhere.Simply select where it is more convenient to pick up the product and where will offer a lower cost - that's the whole recipe.
Conclusions The results of this review is mixed.Most likely to form your own opinion on the device - you need to buy it and test it.
In general we can say this: experiment with a model of the Korean manufacturer Alpha as a whole was a success.The device went worthy, he opened a new direction in the line Galaxy least due to its metal frame and status "nedoflagmana."In addition, these devices can expand the "playing field" for Samsung, to increase their market share and, therefore, may become another tool for ousting its main competitor - Apple.
As for the comparison with other models of the devices from the line of Samsung, its price is considered too high, and the design and positioning of the whole - some losing.Take the lack of a memory card.Users with devices on Android appreciate the opportunity to increase the memory of your device, they need the ability to somehow improve your device, get a kind of workhorse at a more affordable price.Otherwise, they would come up any gadget from Apple - and act as a people who are far from the technology (and, of course, not only).
Just when Alpha - is "test soil" for the Korean giant, then it can be called a success: in the future Samsung may waive such development and improve the smartphone, making it in the spirit of Android-smartphone.If the Koreans do not learn this lesson and try to go into the sphere of influence of Apple, producing beautiful and stylish, but malopraktichnye gadgets - where they can expect to fail.
In general, if you do not think about how your phone is positioned, what he is, and is it possible to buy something for the money better - pretty good device.Alpha has a good body design, great screen, powerful processor, which consumes a small amount of battery power, and flexible operating system.What else, in fact, necessary for the phone to be practical, stylish and easy to use?In Samsung Galaxy Alpha is all there is.So if you like it - do not think for a long time.
