Images of Samsung's upcoming Galaxy A5 and Galaxy A3 smartphones have leaked. The handsets use the same design language as the Galaxy Alpha, complete with an aluminum frame and chamfered edges.

Samsung is getting ready to release the Galaxy Note 4 in the coming weeks and the phablet is going to have one tough competitor when it hits retail shelves. Apple's entry into the phablet market with the 5.5-inch iPhone 6 Plus has reportedly given Samsung concern and it pushed up the release of its 5.7-inch Galaxy Note 4 by a couple of weeks in some regions.

U.S. carriers have already announced pricing and will all release the Galaxy Note 4 on Oct. 17.

While the Galaxy Note 4 will battle the iPhone 6 Plus on the phablet front, Samsung is planning to use a multidevice strategy to compete with the 4.7-inch iPhone 6. Samsung officially took the wraps off its aluminum-framed Galaxy Alpha in August and the smartphone is currently being offered exclusively by AT&T.

Samsung is also preparing to sway potential iPhone customers with its upcoming affordable Galaxy A series. New images of the Galaxy A3 and Galaxy A5 have just leaked and show the smartphones next to the Galaxy Alpha.

AndroidMX posted the images, which show the Samsung Galaxy A5, Galaxy Alpha, and Galaxy A3. The unannounced smartphones feature the same design as the Galaxy Alpha, complete with a premium aluminum frame and iPhone 5s-inspired chamfered edges.

The Samsung Galaxy A3 is expected to be the entry-level model and will pack in a 4.5-inch qHD Super AMOLED display, Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 processor and an 8-megapixel rear camera and 5-megapixel front-facing shooter. The smartphone will reportedly be priced from $350 to $400 off-contract.

The Galaxy A5 will include a 5-inch 720p Super AMOLED display, Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 processor, 13-megapixel rear camera and 5-megapixel front-facing camera for video chat and selfies. The Galaxy A5 is expected to be priced at $400 to $450 off-contract.

Samsung is expected to officially announce the Galaxy A series in the coming weeks. We'll be sure to keep you posted on any new information.
