But Samsung Philippines makes it different by starting the new year, with their all new metal  phones under the Galaxy A series. The new Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, and A7 phones features an all metalic and slim design to cater for the premium seekers in both functionality and design.

Due to the thinness and metal body, Samsung sacrificed the removable back cover and pushed with the usual side sim card & Micro SD Card slot. The A7 features a Dual Sim function, but you will have to sacrifice the Nano sim slot if you want a memory card. Which is kinda understandable, but at the same time confusing.

Samsung also promotes wide angle selfies which is becoming a standard for their lineup. And we will be definitely happy to see this more, even on their lower range phones. Plus all phones features Super Amoled display which is known more for its colorful display and darker black.

With premium body comes with premium price, so prepare to shell out a bit of premium for these babies. The respective prices for the Galaxy A series are Php16,990 for the A3, Php19,990 for the A5 and Php24,990 for the A7. Expect the Galaxy A series to be available this January 2015.
