Design and Build Quality
One of the standout features of the Galaxy Alpha is its design, which significantly departs from Samsung's characteristic reliance on plastic. The introduction of the aluminum frame provided the device with a premium look and feel that had been largely absent from Samsung devices at that time. Measuring just 6.7 mm in thickness and weighing a mere 115 grams, the phone's slim profile and lightweight nature made it quite comfortable to handle. The combination of a Gorilla Glass 4 front and a plastic back keeps the device durable, albeit with a tempered approach to premium design, which some might consider a trade-off. The nano-SIM setup is housed within the compact body, rounding off the minimalistic and efficient structural design.
