Samsung's Galaxy A5 made of neither metal nor plastic: Report

Samsung's Galaxy A5 made of neither metal nor plastic: Report
 

 

 

 

Samsung has been making big strides to improve the industrial design of its devices with metal-framed devices like the Galaxy Alpha and Galaxy Note 4.
The Korean smartphone maker isn't stopping there as Sam Mobile claims the company will introduce a new Galaxy A5 that isn't made of either metal or plastic. The new handset will purportedly have a body that "feels cold in the hand."

Sam Mobile supposes the Galaxy A5 will be made of a unique material, which will both keep the device's cost down while maintaining the device's premium feel. One material that could fit the bill is glass. However, a few leaked images of the device shows it has metallic edges, which might throw out the theory the device won't be made of metal.

Aside from the metallic edges we can see the phone looks like an opaque white trapezoid with sharp edges as opposed to Samsung's usual rounded edge design.

Mid-range mystery

From the reported specs of the Galaxy A5 we can surmise it will be a mid-range device featuring a 5-inch HD Super AMOLED display. The phone is also said to be equipped with a Snapdragon 400 processor, a chip from yesteryear that powered many smartphones like the HTC One Mini.


The phone will also supposedly sport a 13MP rear camera, 5-megapixel front-facing snapper, 16GB of storage, 2,330mAh battery and the latest version of TouchWiz as with the Samsung Galaxy Note 4.

We're sure to hear more about this mystery Samsung smartphone in the future, so stay tuned to this space for more.
