Samsung has announced a new smartphone with a metal frame that is smaller and thinner than its flagship model.

The South Korean company describes the Galaxy Alpha as representing a "new design approach".

The new handset has a 4.7in (11.9cm) screen, making it slightly smaller than the Galaxy S5.

Its camera also has a lower specification of 12 megapixels, but it benefits from being nearly a fifth slimmer, measuring 6.7mm (0.26in) deep, and is also lighter, weighing in at 114g (4oz).

A spokeswoman for Samsung said it would announce the device's price and shipping date at a later stage.

From what I've researched about it, the phone doesn't come with a SD slot. Totally useless for people who wants expandable storage like me. In other news, the GS5 Mini is out here for $508 USD, and that's because it's a non-4G model. Hoping that price will drop before Christmas.
