Ali Bey Mihaloğlu' or Gazı Alauddin Alli bey Mihaloğluö, (1425—1507)[1] was an Ottoman military commander in 15th century and the first sanjakbey of the Sanjak of Smederevo. He was one of the descendants of Köse Mihal, a Byzantine governor of Chirmenkia and battle companion of Osman Gazi.

In 1460 Ali Bey was subasi of the Güvercinlik (Golubac, today in Serbia) and sanjakbey of the Sanjak of Vidin later that year. He was appointed for sanjakbey of the Sanjak of Smederevo in 1462/1463.[3]
