Samsung’s upcoming smartphone could have an all-metal design.
GForGames cites “sources from Samsung’s supply chain” that the soon-to-be-released Galaxy Note 4 and Galaxy Alpha are the start of Samsung’s bid to roll out more “premium,” all-metal designs to the market.
This means that Samsung’s next flagship phone, which is dubbed the Galaxy S6, could be all metal like Apple’s iPhones.
Samsung phones generally feature plastic covers, even in their top-of-the-line range like the current Galaxy S5 and Galaxy Note 3.
However, GForGames’ sources claim that Samsung will have difficulties transitioning to an all-metal Galaxy S6 because most metal case suppliers are tied up with Apple.
