I miss all the Samsung phones between 2014 and 2017, best years hands down.
I love this phone very much☺😊☺,i am using from 1 year,no lag at all,this is the only phone in the world which we can type letters in the keyboard without touching the letters on the keyboard by enabling touch sensitivity feature (try hovering the finger above the letter which u want to type),proud to be a Samsung Galaxy Alpha owner
Thanks for the new video! I like that Samsung is finally making a smaller but not minuscule phone. Keep making those videos! You're doing a great job!
Dude,you have the BIGGEST hands that I have ever seen! All the phones you review,the phones look tiny in your hands. But keep up the good work Mike,I really enjoy your reviews. They all all very complete with all the information that we will need to be able to start using the mobile right away.Great!!

I don't think that they copied the design of the iphone, but it is clearly made to compete with it and it is certainly marketed to people that think that aluminium means "premium build". They even took out the feature of increasing the memory with a microSD, but at least you can still change your battery easily.
Best reviewer on KZread specially with front and rear facing camera .!!! THEY NEVER DO THAT. But you do
The accessories given with it are amazing.. and also the features

Have seen a few reviews of the galaxy alpha and this one was the better by far. Good job and thanks a lot.
The beginning of the Galaxy A series.
The only problem with this phone is the battery and that its not water proof... (Still better than the iphone 6 though)

+xXTas3r FTWXx Well I personally want this phone because the budget is really good for what it offers. I take it as a upgraded S5 or a little brother to the Note 4. But be wise with what you want. Coming fro iPhone to Android is a whole new world. I for sure want this phone because I invested in a school laptop, but I can also use an upgrade. I don' have the greatest budget I'll say that. But this phone is like $200. Very affordable smartphone. But it's all up to you really. I'm totally buying it.

Can apple fanboys explain where apple got the idea for customizable keyboards? What about fingerprint print scanners? Motorola a Atrix had finger print scanners first!
Apple - Samsung - HTC who care ,{SAME SHIT} they probably buy all the parts for these phones from the same damn warehouse, and all you guys are fighting over which is better, I can imagine seeing the owners of these companies in a 5 star plus restaurant and bar drinking together laughing making jokes and bets on how many people will buy their phones instead of the other and the loser gets to pay for the drinks. whiles you people run out to buy these phones waiting on lines and can't even pay your credit card bill, rent or the phone bill.
Best Reviewer! Love your vids.
Good presentation videos as always !!
Looks like Samsung's heading down the wrong path. This is a DOWNGRADE. Especially for $777.00

Yeah, bought it and returned it back for the S5. I liked the premium feel of it and it's small foot print compared the its Galaxy predecessor, but a smaller camera and battery, and not to mention pricing killed it for me.

Andrew Kim A car with 1000hp isn't going to last long. Maintenance would be a b**** and a terrible investment. But yea why do people buy expensive lambos? Because they can...the way people use and spend there money is all on personal preference and opinions
lol PREMIUM PHONE? It has a shitty screen (by Samsung standards) and its has plastic backing. Why the fuck would anyone get this over an iPhone 6? Get an S5 or Note 4 if you want the true Samsung experience

Thank you for this close to perfect review! The only thing I have to say is that you focus only on 'other Samsung devices' and the iPhone 6 in particular as phones to compare to. I'd have liked to hear your experiences in comparison to the Sony Z3 compact for example. But other than that I think this is one of the most complete reviews I've seen. Thanks a lot!

Everybody has a different approach, the Samsung is considerably lighter and more compact than similar metal phones. Plastic construction has it's benefits.

The iPhone 6 and One M8 are very similar constructions. But people like you are the reason the market is so diverse nowadays. A phone some people consider the highest end are considered by others to be "dogshit" and I think that's good for competitive pricing and innovation in both hardware and software.

Apple fanboys are like "THIS IS AN IPHONE RIP OFF AND IT'S A COPY!!!" First of all, your blind and need to go to specsavers Second of all, look at the back. Does it looks anything like the iPhone???!!!! A dimpled back vs a smooth back. A big camera on the top centre vs a small camera on the top left corner. An LED flash which is bigger than the iPhone. The Samsung branding is both on the front and the back where the Apple branding is just at the back. And the metal bumper, does it really looks the exact same?? No more bumper on the 6 and 6 plus. But 5&5S bumper is just one whole equal shape where the Alpha bumper has some curves and some things sticking out. Metal vs Metal and plastic. Apple just uses one boring material. Its bullshit iCrap Srsly ppl, grow up.
Another great video, hoping this comes to sprint for my backup phone to my note 4

Just held this phone in my hands today at the ATT store and I think I found my next smartphone I'll be honest the 720 p screen looked fantastic and the phone feels just amazing in the hands
Love your work Mike. Very sexy phone. But with the low resolution screen and lack of sd card slot. Have pre-ordered the Note 4. Can't wait for it to arrive and to see your unboxing of it!
Would you buy this over the more feature rich s5?
Detroitborg you are the best man. You are the BEST
Very nice review man :)
I'm in love with this phone. I was swaying towards getting an iPhone, but this is the icing on the cake.
I know that everybody is complaining about this phone only having a metal frame but I actually help one of these in a shop today and I was surprised by how premium it felt - it really does work well when you see it in the flesh in my opinion. If I were looking for a new phone I think that this one would definitely be an option for me.
Thanks for being one of the best american speaker that we can understand very well while speaking in english !! For a foreign i could comprehend everything. Nice review too !
Very nice video as usual ...... Waiting for the note 4 unboxing....
