Samsung Galaxy Alpha: Release on August 4 – Chip Online



The Galaxy Alpha could be Samsung’s answer to the iPhone 6. Contrary to previous assumptions is Samsung’s new model but not so strongly equipped as hoped. First live photos at least promise a very chic design

Samsung Galaxy Alpha. Leaked release date



 In a nutshell: The site SamMobile that are responsible for many leaks about the Galaxy Alpha have called its release date: It is August 4, 2014 A source calls the page does not though, she wears the new information but in a tone of. . conviction before, which leaves no doubt as to the reliability of the date

On August 4, so Samsung will unveil his smartphone – and thus approximately one month before the mighty Galaxy Note 4 Then we will know if it just the hype Apple’s iPhone is and has 6 really oppose something

Galaxy Alpha:. Name and Display confirmed



 Samsung Galaxy Alpha will get a mid-range display with 720p resolution. The website SamMobile has posted a screenshot from a developer console from Samsung, called the name and image resolution of the upcoming model. Accordingly, the mobile phone is simply called Alpha Galaxy (without “S5″ suffix) and provides video content with 1280 x 720 pixels dar.

As previously leaked pictures show, is on the phone also only the metal frame. The back apparently still consists of a leather plastic. With the alleged rumors in the first premium quality of mobile phones, it seems probably not to be so far away

Galaxy Alpha: Only middle-class display

SamMobile had Premuim enthusiasts previously announce bad news. One unnamed insider source said, which traded as precious flagship Galaxy Alpha had only a 4.8-inch display with 720p resolution. While that is not bad at all, but not top class

Galaxy Alpha. Smaller than the Galaxy S5



 In the photos is good to see that the Galaxy Alpha is slightly smaller than the Galaxy S5. There will probably be about the same size as the iPhone 6. In this case, Samsung has recently made fun of the iPhone 5S, since it is smaller than the Galaxy S5. The new alpha version brings significantly more aluminum than usual from Samsung mobile phones. As the pictures show, but no one full-aluminum shell a la HTC One M8 expect. Rather, only the broad frame of metal housing, the battery cover is also made of plastic. The ground edges of the frame awaken reminiscences of Apple’s iPhone 5S. There is loud SamMobile however, the possibility that Samsung still provides the shiny metal at the edges with a matte finish.

The Vietnamese Blog Tinhte.vn also has some shaky live images of the Alpha posted that the device partially in the on mode show with boot screen. You can find these photos in the Photogallery

Galaxy Alpha: Specs, Price & Release

Completely unknown are processor and features. According SamMobile the mobile phone has a nano-SIM slot, a fingerprint scanner and 32 GB media storage, which can not be expanded. Supposedly the alpha slightly better than the Galaxy Mini S5 be equipped. Given the high expectations that would be many interested parties probably a disappointment.

The release of the Galaxy Alpha could take place even before the iPhone 6. The website ETNews has brought into play on the 14th August. For the suggested retail price, the insider silent out

Galaxy F:. Is probably the Galaxy Alpha



 In the rumor Samsung smartphone has been provided mainly under the name of Galaxy F vertebra, probably the device comes but under the name of Alpha Galaxy on the market. (fn)

Samsung Galaxy Tab S in the test: Sharper than the iPad – but even better? – STERN.DE

D as iPad is still the king of tablets. 27 percent of all hip flasks come from Apple, Samsung with 17.2 percent market share but still lagging far behind. That is about to change: With plenty of spectacle Samsung has introduced in June, the two new Galaxy Tab S models in New York. The presentation took place at Madison Square Garden, the most famous arena in the world – a clear challenge to Apple. The Galaxy Tab S comes in two versions, 8.4 and 10.5-inch diagonal screen. We have tested both models.



The Pixel King

The Tab S models, Samsung is fully on the super-sharp AMOLED screen. Even when you first turn you get to see on the colorful lock screen all the colorfulness of the S Tab. According to Samsung, the tablet can have a 20 percent greater color gamut display than the competition. The screen of our two test devices has no color cast. The resolution is 2560 x 1600 pixels, the pixel density is 359 ppi (pixels per inch). A peak! Especially photographers and film fans will have their joy at Tab S

The small Galaxy Tab S measures 126 x 213 x 6.6 mm -. Thus it is one of the most compact tablets on the market. With 294 grams, it is also lighter than the iPad Mini with Retina display. However, there is the Apple tablet made of high quality aluminum, while Samsung uses plastic. And the golf ball look on the back might not be to everyone’s taste. At the processing, there is nothing to complain about, the Tab S acts stable and the buttons are firmly attached. The smaller Tab S has been optimized for use in portrait orientation, the large model should be held in landscape mode.

this country available version of the Tab S has 16 gigabytes, the pre-installed software is almost five gigabytes. The microSD slot allows the memory scarcely measured up to 128 gigabytes expand – so there should even Serienjunkies get through a two-week vacation without withdrawal symptoms. With the computing power the Galaxy Tab S is according to some benchmarks on par with the iPad Air, which is so far disappointing as Samsung built an eight-core processor in the S Tab. In addition, some 3D games juddered (such as “Riptide GP2″) in our test. Also when you start the iPad Mini retina nose had always forward. It is possible that here an update soon will help.

S Tab, Samsung, Tablet, iPad, Test

The smaller model, the Galaxy Tab S 8.4 ©

Up to twelve hours of battery life

The rear camera snaps pictures with eight megapixels in 4:3 ratio in 16:9 mode are still six megapixels available. However, an optical image stabilizer is missing. In daylight the shots are good in low light conditions, however, only average. Also, the flash then saves not much

Depending on the intensity of use of the battery lasts (4900 mAh capacity) between nine and twelve hours -. Enough for the entire “Lord of the Rings” trilogy. Charging, however, takes too long: Only after almost five hours our loading bar was back to 100 percent

A feature of the Galaxy S5 has made it in the tab. S: the fingerprint scanner. He is in the home button and works quite reliably. Practically, the scanner when multiple users share a tablet. With Apple’s iPad one looks familiar from the iPhone 5S feature so far in vain

. Conclusion: Samsung’s Tablet Highlights

The two tab-S models are the best Android Tablets. The screen is brilliant and the devices are extremely thin and light. With less than 300 grams, the 8.4 is hardly noticeable even in your pocket. We did better like the smaller model in the test, because it can hold comfortably with one hand, also the vertical format for many applications such as the browser more practical.

With 399 euros for the Wifi and 499 euros for the LTE variant of Samsung’s 8.4-inch tablet but not cheaper than the iPad Mini. Those who value stylish design and the iOS operating system, should pick up the apple. If, however, a larger display and the low weight preferred, it should pick up the tab S. Otherwise, the tablet does not take much.

Samsung Galaxy Note 3: update brings download Booster – Curved

The update is available for download via Samsung Kies and over the air, but it can at the rollout take a few days to really be able to download the new firmware to all devices.

Samsung Galaxy S4: third-party battery catches fire – Curved

morning you will be happy to wake up to the smell of fresh coffee – but by the smell of a burnt smartphone batteries? That a 13-year-old girl from Texas but has happened with their Samsung Galaxy S4. The cause is likely to be in the battery, which originates from a third party. In addition, the smartphone centers was also extremely unfavorable.

at night was the little Ariel Tolfree woke up because she was suffering in the nose of the strange smell. The reason for this was the burned smartphone under her pillow – a video of the channel Fox 4 shows that not much is left of the device, the Samsung Galaxy S4 is almost completely melted. “The plastic, the glass – it can be hard to recognize that there ever was a phone,” the father told the station. Because:. Initially he informed Samsung about the incident, he immediately contacted the Press

third-party battery – and the storage is extremely unfavorable

The cause of the molten smartphone is apparently in the battery: the father of Ariel Tolfree suspected that the battery of the Samsung Galaxy S4 overheated and thus caught fire. So he may be right, but this is only one side of the coin. Thus, Samsung has now ruled on the case and pointed out that the battery does not come in the smartphone from the Korean company itself, but by a third party. And this is not just good for cheap batteries, the past has already shown with other devices.

In addition, however, that the storage of smartphones is not exactly the best idea under a pillow, on which the company points. At such a location placed, increases the risk of overheating the battery dramatically since too little to no air gets in this way to the smartphone and it can cool. This scenario is so predictable that Samsung already indicates in the instructions of its devices. But the father is not enough this:. He would not have just stand in the User’s Guide, such warnings should be printed directly on the packaging of the device

Can not only with the Samsung Galaxy S4 happen

an interesting question remains, of course: Why the 13-year-old girl put your Samsung Galaxy S4 under the pillow? It is well known that children like to hide their milk teeth there, in the hope that there is a reward from the tooth fairy. But smartphones? The Fox 4 she said she fell asleep and the phone is in the process slipped under the pillow. So the case is again a good example of that with technical devices should be handled responsibly.

The new top model of the Galaxy tablet series of Samsung has to show what it can do in the test. So the Galaxy Tab S 8.4 reveals Although weaknesses in endurance, but can fully convince the display.

Samsung is preparing to deal Jump to overtake Apple at the forefront of tablet sales. But above all, simpler models are responsible, that are sold in large quantities. But the Koreans have also thought of the high-end segment and offer with the new Galaxy Tab S models, the iPad and the iPad mini Paroli.

We have the model with 8.4-inch display under the microscope, which are available for 399 euros, the larger 10.5-inch device fails with 499 euros. The LTE-enabled mobile versions each cost 100 euros more. Samsung calls so at least similar amounts as Apple on.

Justify to the much high-tech equipment and especially a display that sets new standards. For the first time in a tablet screens in Super Amoled technology are performed. Not only the crisp resolution of 2,560 x 1,600 pixels can convince it, but also the realistic colors and luminance. Here, the tablet’s brightness automatically adjusts to the environment, which also ensures good readability outdoors. The 10.5-inch version make movies and photos even more fun, but the price, weight and compact design tend to favor the 8.4-inch version.

In the current video, the creator of such an approach has the device also still the same missed a heart rate monitor as well as the UV sensor into account, which is to actually come.

It looks like the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 is not only in plastic to be prepared. Thus, in addition to already suggested a model with metal housing. Furthermore, the different versions could but differ not only in the back bowls, but are also one with and one without a curved display on the market. Is there any truth to the rumors that will be clarified with any certainty at this year’s IFA, which will take place in Berlin from September 5 to 10. As in the time frame of the iPhone 6 is expected, it remains to be seen whether the South Koreans do not yet have a surprise up its sleeve.
