Samsung Galaxy Alpha release date may come really soon as the device was spotted in Federal Communications Commission (FCC), which added fuel to the fire that the device may be released on Aug. 13.

One of devices that appeared in FCC is the SM-G850F variant, which is speculated to be the Samsung Galaxy Alpha. According to the FCC document, the Samsung Galaxy Alpha will have the physical dimensions of 133mm by 67mm, which makes it smaller than the Samsung Galaxy S5. This is expected to be true since it was rumored to sport either a 4.7″ or 4.8″ 720p screen display, which is smaller than that of Galaxy S5. Moreover, the handset will most probably be thinner than Apple's handset – iPhone 5S.

Moreover, the document added that the device was tested for various connectivity features such as LTE bands 5 and 2 (B5/B2), dual-band Wi-Fi, and bluetooth 4.0 LE as well as for Near Field Communication (NFC). This suggested that the device could be an international variant or a variant that will not be distributed in the US.

Rumors claim that Samsung Galaxy Alpha will be a full metal smartphone. Just like the iPhone, it will also come with a semi-metal body, and you will find a metallic rim on the edges of the Galaxy Alpha. It will be equipped with a 4.7-inch AMOLED display, Samsung Exynos Octa 5 chipset and will be powered by the new Snapdragon 805 processor introduced in the Galaxy S5 LTE-A. The handset will also be available with 32GB internal storage.

Meanwhile, there is no solid proof that Samsung Galaxy Alpha will be launched on Aug. 13 and Samsung has not revealed any official information about its upcoming devices.
