The Galaxy Alpha counts with a much greater hardware performance than Galaxy S25, because although it has lesser RAM and less cpu cores (but faster), it also counts with a GPU.
The Samsung Galaxy S25 shoots much better videos and photos than Samsung Galaxy Alpha, because it has a much higher video resolution, a camera with way more megapixels and a larger aperture for better photos in low-light environments.

So if you want that extra specs, you can buy the Galaxy S25, else you can save some money and buy the Samsung Galaxy Alpha, letting go a couple specs and features.
