Leaked renders claim to show the Samsung Galaxy A5, a sibling to the Galaxy Alpha

PhoneArena has some new pics claiming to show off leaked renders of a new Samsung device, the Samsung Galaxy A5. This appears to be part of a new range of phones, based off the Galaxy Alpha. We have seen some prototype pics of the device before.

The ‘A’ lineup appears to symbolise Samsung’s phone with ‘premium’ materials (non plastic body, for instance). The A5 is supposedly made of aluminium, featuring a 5 inch AMOLED screen with a 720P resolution. The phone also appears to include a 13 megapixel rear camera and a 5 megapixel front camera. With Samsung’s recent focus on battery life, it’s unsurprising that the A5 will pack a 2,300 mAH battery — according to reports.

Information on pricing and availability is murky, although PhoneArea believes the A5 will retail for $400. Alongside the A5, there are also rumors of A3 and A7 devices, which are lower-end and higher-end iterations of the model seen above.
