Review: Samsung’s Galaxy Alpha is a Sleeker, Slimmer Galaxy S5

Samsung’s Galaxy S5 is one of the most advanced smartphones in the world. But its plastic body and relatively bland design fall far short of the elegant stylings of Apple’s iPhone and HTC’s One M8.

That’s where the new Galaxy Alpha comes in. The first genuinely attractive smartphone to come from Samsung, the Alpha seeks to put to rest all of those criticisms about the Korean tech giant’s inability to create a handset that’s aesthetically appealing as well as technically advanced.

Available exclusively through AT&T for $199 with a two-year contract, the 4.7-inch Galaxy Alpha packs many of the same features as the 5-inch Galaxy S5 in a smaller, more fashionable body. So should you make it your own? Let’s check it out.

Is This Why Microsoft Named It Windows 10?

There are quite a few theories floating around out there as to why Microsoft decided to name the latest version of its flagship operating system Windows 10, skipping over Windows 9. On Tuesday, the company unveiled the name and showed off a brief demo of the OS at a press event in San Francisco. The leap from Windows 8 to Windows 10 easily stole the spotlight from any visual design and developmental changes Microsoft has baked into the product.

So what’s the deal? On the surface, it appears to be smart marketing. The Windows 8 brand has been mired in controversy for the last two years, stemming from Microsoft’s bold yet unfamiliar design language and functionality decisions. So why not scrap any association with an entire numeric leap?

Other theories are that there are 10 major consumer releases of Windows, making this a celebration of that progress, while some feel it should have been called Windows 11 in that case. Some think Microsoft may make future Windows releases incremental, and thus free, after Windows 10 — the same strategy Apple employed when it switched from numerals to feral cats after the release of Mac OS X. That theory has been bolstered by reports earlier this week stating that Andreas Diantoro, the president of Microsoft Indonesia, reportedly said the company was planning on making its next version of Windows free to current Windows 8 users. (The company declined to talk Windows 10 business models yesterday.)
