NEW DELHI: Samsung has been releasing smartphones at a rapid pace in the past couple of months. Now, a new image of the company's Galaxy Note III phablet has emerged on the internet, just a day ahead of Samsung's June 20 event in London. The handset is an update to the Galaxy Note II smartphone and is slated to be launched at IFA 2013 in August.
The image has been leaked by a Twitter user @PunkPanda, who tweeted that the phone has a 6-inch screen. He also wrote that the display accounts for 84% of the front's footprint, meaning very thin bezels onsides of the screen. The image shows a Galaxy Note III with big screen and curved edge.
Recently, a prototype of Samsung Galaxy Note III also made its way to the internet. It is rumoured that this phone will have a 5.99-inch SuperAMOLED screen with 1920x1080p resolution, 13MP camera with optical image stabilization and support S Pen stylus. Antutu records show the score of a Galaxy Note III with 1.6GHz quad-core processor and running on the unannounced Android 4.3 mobile operating system.
Samsung is scheduled to host an event for its Android-powered Galaxy range of devices as well as Ativ series of gadgets, which run on Windows OS. The company has launched a total of 12 devices globally since April this year, including the flagship Galaxy S4 smartphone and tablets running on Intel chips.
