Samsung’s updated Galaxy Note is on the way, with Samsung confirming that its Galaxy Note 2 is scheduled to be the star of its showing at this year’s IFA trade show.
As we saw with the amazing amount of fuss generated by the Galaxy S III announcement, Samsung’s not actually calling the phone the Galaxy Note 2 yet, instead referring to it as just the “next Galaxy Note”. The news comes from Reuters, which quotes a Samsung employee saying: “We plan to unveil the next Galaxy Note at the Samsung Mobile Unpacked event in Berlin on August 29.”
Specs are a little thin on the ground at the moment, with only some previous speculation regarding the screen size out there, which claims the new Note will be a little larger that the first one. Yes, you read that right. Larger.
Rumours suggest it will come with a 5.5″; display running at an impressive 1680×1050 resolution. My arm feels tired just thinking about it. [Reuters via Android Police]
