Samsung Galaxy Note 3 Announcement Could Take Place in September

By Robert Walczak?|?05/22/2013

A recent statement from a Samsung official says that the Samsung Galaxy Note 3, the South Korean company?s next-generation phablet, will be launched, or announced, at IFA 2013 in Berlin. This lines up with a plethora of rumors from previous weeks suggesting that Samsung will use the yearly gadget expo to announce its jumbo-sized phablet with stylus pen support. IFA 2013 will kick off in the first week of September, 2013.

Speaking to the Korea Times, a Samsung official confirmed that the Galaxy Note 3 will be launched at the Episode 2 Unpacked press event, which looks to be taking place at IFA early in September. The report also added a few notes on the Galaxy Note 3?s possible specifications, as it now looks most likely that the Galaxy Note 3 will feature a 5.99-inch display.

While this may be just a fraction smaller than the previously rumored 6-inch display, a fraction of an inch smaller means an additional pixel per inch or two, which makes for better specs marketing.

However, there?s a possibility Samsung may settle for an even six inches, as the Galaxy S4, once rumored to feature a 4.99-inch screen, shipped with a 5-inch screen instead.

If the Galaxy Note 3 will indeed be launching at IFA 2013, we can expect a release date sometime in October, as Samsung usually releases devices about a month, or slightly less than a month, after they get formally launched in public. Some of the other improvements buyers can expect include an eight-core Exynos processor, a 13-megapixel rear camera like the one on the Galaxy S4 and Galaxy S4-esque design language.

Unfortunately, recent reports have suggested that the Galaxy Note 3 may continue Samsung?s tradition of using plastic on its top-shelf devices as a build material.
