Further
blurring the lines between smartphones and tablets, Samsung is rumoured to be
preparing a Samsung Galaxy Note 2 release for IFA 2012
Following the
recent Samsung Galaxy S3 release, Samsung Galaxy Note 2 rumours have kicked
into overdrive with latest reports suggesting Samsung's next oversized
smartphone come tablet hybrid will be officially unveiled the day before IFA
2012.
Tipped to
further stretch the boundaries of what can be classed as a smartphone, new
reports have suggested the surprise success of 2011 will see Samsung increase
the 5.3-inch form factor for the Galaxy Note follow on with new technologies to
be brought in to give the handset’s expansive display a certain amount of
flexibility.
Having
previously been pencilled in for either a September of early October arrival,
latest reports have suggested the Korean handset manufacturer will host another
Mobile Unpacked event the day ahead of IFA 2012 with the Samsung Galaxy Note 2
release date set to be announced on August 30th. The Berlin based show is set
to run between August 31st and September 5th.
With the
second-generation Galaxy Note set to steal the show, Samsung is expected to
unveil a host of other mobile devices at the Unpacked event that is scheduled
to kick off at 7pm.
Citing
“undisclosed industry sources,” recent reports via MK Business News suggested
“Samsung is in the midst of developing a large-screen smartphone model with
displays exceeding five inches.” The reports went on to name the device as the
“Samsung Galaxy Note 2.”
Adding new
fuel to the fire that is the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 rumour mill, Samsung has
teased the upcoming device via the official Samsung Mobile Arabia Twitter feed.
Sparking a new round of excitement, the Arabian arm of the Korean tech giant
lumped the second-generation Note in with a selection of already confirmed
devices tweeting: "Which one of these are you excited about: #GalaxyBeam
#GalaxyTab2 #GalaxyNote2 ? #Poll"
Samsung Galaxy Note 2 Features
Whilst
everything is still far from confirmed, the mooted Samsung Galaxy Note 2 is
tipped to be the first handset to land boasting an unbreakable plane (UBP)
display with the new, slimline screen acting “a precursor to the flexible
display.” The oversized handset is said to be getting even bigger with the
previous 5.3-inch screen being replaced by a new 5.5-inch model.
With the new
streamlined screen allowing Samsung to shave precious millimetres from the
handset’s form, it is expected the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 will sport an all new
form factor with Google’s newly confirmed Android 4.1 Jelly Bean operating
system lining up alongside a possible S3 mimicking quad-core processor and a
new 12 -megapixel camera giving the device some added grunt.
Samsung Galaxy Note Release Date
Again a long
way from being confirmed, the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 rumour mill has suggested
that the Korean manufacturer could use the S3 sibling to detract with the
widely expected autumn Apple iPhone 5 release. As such, an early October
Samsung Galaxy Note 2 release date was originally banded around before the
latest September arrival speculation took the limelight.
