Samsung Refreshes Its Design Language with Galaxy Alpha
720p display?
I imagine they didn't go with a higher res screen because of the thickness and the cost, metal frame is more expensive than their old cheap crappy plastic backs.
Honestly that crappy cheap hand feel of samsung's is a big part of the reason I don't like them, is that a samsung or a ZTE in my hand? That and the the 6+ gigs of BS crapware they put on every decently spec'd handset... please can you use half my internal memory for the OS? Sweeet!
No assumption on the screen quality, the stats are right there. Just as I would "assume" that a phone with a 5 inch screen has a bigger screen than a phone with a 4.5 inch screen. It's in the numbers.
Yea me too. It's awesome when the manufacturers release the specs ahead of time so we can know what to expect.
>>like its screen is or is not better than X.
The screen was specifically criticized for its resolution. I think we can know if the resolution is better than some existing device or not.... derrrrr.
>> than their old cheap crappy plastic backs. Honestly that crappy cheap hand feel of samsung's is a big part of the reason I don't like them
That's a matter of perspective. Most people don't care. I for one love the design of my Note 3. Furthermore, most of you Apple snobs stick your iPhone in a bulky plastic case anyway. Kind of defeats the purpose ...

That said, this won't be competing against the iPhone 5/5s, this is going to be competing against the iPhone 6 announced in 4 weeks.
Say what you will about Samsung, but at least they actually know how to count....the Galaxy S5 is actually the 5th Galaxy S, not the 6th or the 7th.
It's a trivial thing but it bugs the hell out of me, I have heard customers saying 'I heard the next iPhone will be called the iPhone 8, but that's stupid because they haven't had a 6 yet' and I just want to scream 'it is the 8th iPhone, of course iPhone 8 makes sense, what doesn't make sense is calling the iPhone 6 and the iPhone 7.....iPhone 5'
1. iPhone
2. iPhone 3G
3. iPhone 3GS
4. iPhone 4
5. iPhone 4s
6. iPhone 5
7. iPhone 5c
8. iPhone 5s (released at same time as 5c)
9. iPhone 6
Unless you count 5c/s as the same because of release date.
