Samsung Galaxy Alpha specs leaked by retailer and tipster

Octa-core innards and a flagship price tag

The Samsung Galaxy Alpha may still be the stuff of rumours, but that hasn't stopped one retailer from putting it up for pre-order, complete with a list of alleged specs.
Mobile Fun is the online store in question -although the listing already seems to have been taken down - but not before The Inquirer managed to grab all the juicy details.
The Samsung Galaxy Alpha was listed at a flagship-worthy £549, for which you'd apparently get a 4.7-inch 1280 x 720 Super AMOLED display with a pixel density of 320ppi, an octa-core Exynos processor, a 12MP camera with 'super-fast autofocus' and a 2.1MP front-facing snapper.
It's also said to come with 32GB of storage, 4G capabilities and a fingerprint scanner, though there's no mention of the heart rate monitor found on the Samsung Galaxy S5.

Metal mention

As for the build of the Galaxy Alpha, there's no image included but it's described as having a 'metallic design.' As with any pre-announcement listing we'd advise a healthy helping of salt with this, but it's a fairly detailed listing, so if it is guess work they're some quite comprehensive guesses.

In fact the specs match up with another leak that appeared shortly after, this time from @culeaks, which claims the device will have a 4.7-inch 720p display, an Exynos octa-core processor and a 12MP camera, as well as mentioning a few things which Mobile Fun didn't, specifically that it will have an 1850mAh battery, 2GB of RAM and run Android 4.4.4.

The new Twitter tipster also revealed some more images of the phone, giving us a good look at the metal edges and matching up with other recent images.
This is a new account, so it doesn't have any sort of track record, but the images look convincing and the specs line up with Mobile Fun's listing, so we may well be on to something.

New Philips phone with 8MP camera visits TENAA

New Philips phone with 8MP camera visits TENAA A Philips smartphone bearing the model number S310X has just been certified by Chinese regulatory authority TENAA. So we assume that the company will first release the smartphone in China. Looking at the TENAA listing, the Philips S310X comes with not so impressive specs. It is listed with 1GB, 2GB and 3GB of RAM for the memory capacity. So most probably, the smartphone will come in three different memory variants. There is another possibility that Philips has not yet decided which amount of RAM would be used. In addition, the Philips phone would be available in three different storage variants as well. The basic version with 8GB, another with 16GB, and the highest one with 32GB of native storage space. So presumably, the Philips S310X will have three variations of this device with the 8GB model corresponding to the 1GB RAM variant, while the 16GB model corresponds to the 2GB RAM variant and the 32GB model corresponds to the 3G...
