The Alpha is carefully closed in many areas, but in reality does not mean that he is very resistant to water and dust. There is even a rubber coating on the back present to keep out unwanted material.

The ‘repair ability’ that iFixit to the Samsung Galaxy Alpha measures is therefore a disappointing 5/10. More information about the Galaxy Alpha can be read here.
