Samsung is reportedly planning to discontinue its Galaxy Alpha smartphones, according to a report from South Korean news ET. The electronics giant will phase out the Galaxy Alpha and replace it with the Galaxy A5 in its home market in January 2015.
The report says that Samsung will discontinue the production of the Galaxy Alpha by early February and it will be phased out as production ramps down once the current inventory of materials is exhausted. The Galaxy A5 will be priced at approximately KRW 400,000 which translates to $363.
The Galaxy Alpha was initially announced in August. It features a compact body with a metal frame, curved corners and a tactile soft back cover. The phone is one of the slimmest Galaxy devices with 6.7mm thickness and weighs 115gram. Samsung Galaxy Alpha sports a 4.7-inch HD Super AMOLED (720x1280p) display and is powered by Samsung’s Exynos octa core processor featuring 1.8GHz quad-core and 1.3GHz quad-core processors, and 2GB RAM.
Samsung’s new Galaxy A5 shares a similar design and has a spec sheet that matches, and in some areas, exceeds the Alpha’s feature list. It has a metal unibody design, a 5-inch 720p display, a quad-core Snapdragon 410 processor, 2GB of RAM, a 13MP main camera, a 5MP front cam, and a 2300mAh battery.
Samsung is reportedly making this move as part of its plans to focus on cheaper devices. There is no official word from Samsung regarding the discontinuation of Galaxy Alpha.
