Although we now understand the Samsung Galaxy note II will be revealed at the South Korean company’s IFA 2012 event on August 29th, that doesn’t indicate we must cease all conjecture as well as wait on the official showcasing. The leaks are still showing up thick as well as fast, as well as NowhereElse, a site which seems truly in the loop with regards to upcoming tech products, has leaked the purported front panel of the forthcoming handset, as well as by running a ruler across it to determine the diameter, likewise seemingly verified the 5.5-inch size reported on many occasions.
The very first Galaxy note released last year, as well as while it naturally gathered lots of criticism as well as unfavorable press from those who deemed it as well big to make an impression, the “phablet” has shocked lots of in ending up being a main-stayer. Sure, it didn’t handle to contend with the Samsung Galaxy S II in terms of sheer units sold, however not lots of smartphones handle to reach those numbers, as well as if nothing else, the note taught us there is a location in the market for a smartphone pushing tablet size.
This front panel leak procedures in at 14 cm diagonally give-or-take, as well as that corresponds to around 5.5-inch in screen real-estate. Not only fantastic news for those partial to the additional room, however it will be the largest smartphone (in terms of screen size) on the market. It appears the bezel has been thinned out in comparison to the “small” very first Galaxy note iteration, which indicates the next gadget itself may not be larger, in spite of the screen measuring in around 0.2-in larger.
Some reports had suggested the Galaxy note II would comply with in the footsteps of Samsung’s flagship Galaxy S III in terms of type factor, using a smoother, a lot more rounded look. This leak definitely dispels that notion, as well as I personally believe the note II is a great deal much better off preserving the squarish identity seen in the very first iteration.
In terms of the innards, we’re expecting nothing less than a quad-core Exynos 1.6Ghz processor, a 5.5-inch 720p incredibly AMOLED screen with 16:10 element ratio.
As pointed out earlier, the gadget will be revealed at Samsung’s IFA 2012 event on August 29th, so with only two weeks to go, those anxious for the huge expose won’t have to wait much longer.
