Sometimes I’m conflicted by the idea of switching to a Samsung phone, for the very frivolous reason of Samsung being a Korean brand… Don’t judge, just half a year in Korea was enough to convince me that I was Korean in my past life ;) (I’m just kidding)
Recently I got to test out Samsung’s GALAXY ALPHA 4G+, in Frosted Gold (insert sparkles here). The other two colours are Dazzling White and Charcoal Black. After spending time with my new best friend, I really got to know more about the phone not just as something “Korean”.
-------
1. Slim and light
The moment I picked up the phone, I couldn’t believe how light it was. Should have seen my face. And it’s really slender too. It fits into my pocket without looking bulky and so thin I can put it in my wallet. Lovely.
Dimensions in height x width x depth, in cm: 13.24 x 6.55 x 0.67 Weight, in g: 115
2. Selective Focus
I really enjoy taking photographs (not just of myself or my ootds as commonly misunderstood due to my Instagram) and the GALAXY ALPHA has some pretty solid camera features that allow better photographs to capture moments in my life with its 12 megapixel advanced camera. It has three flagship camera features: Fast Autofocus, Selective Focus and Real-time HDR, but Selective Focus is my favourite.
I’ve always wished I could get that bokeh effect with my smartphone and this phone allows that!! All you need to do is turn on the Selective Focus when you open up the camera and snap a picture.
How artistic.
And the coolest part is that you can choose the type of effect you want even after taking the photo:
I love it.
3. Super Battery
10% battery left? No biggie ;)
Samsung’s GALAXY ALPHA has this amazing feature called Ultra Power Saving Mode. Say goodbye to power banks.
This mode turns the screen to black and white and shut downs all unnecessary features. The remaining 10% of the battery life can be extended to up to 10 hours worth of standby time.
10% gives 10 hours.
Are you kidding me - that’s even longer than 100% of my current battery life.

So here you go – my three favourite features of the Samsung GALAXY ALPHA 4G+. There are other features that I love, like its AMOLED screen which allows easy viewing even in strong sunlight and its Octa Core Processor, which in layman terms, means it has eight brains instead of the usual four, but I wanted to keep this simple. Its new fingerprint security – which you can use to lock your phone AND make payments online – is also really convenient. No more worrying about forgetting passwords. Finally, if you’re already a Samsung user, the GALAXY Life app should be familiar to you. Customized to your interests, the GALAXY Life app keeps you updated with the latest privileges and treats around your location. It also recommends you apps you’ll find useful!
If you’re looking to purchase the Samsung GALAXY ALPHA 4G+, head down to any Samsung Experience Store to purchase it at only $848, without any plan. Keep a look out for the ongoing promotion of the free Tab 3 Lite (7.0") Wi-Fi too!
