Samsung is all set to launch a new version of its popular Galaxy Note smartphone, probably to be called as Galaxy Note 2, on the coming 30th August this year.
According to the Korean Digital Daily, “Samsung is planning to have an ‘Unpacked’ event for the Galaxy Note 2. It should happen on August 30 – a day before the IFA expo kicks off in Berlin, Germany.”
The Galaxy Note was the first device to sport a 5.3 inch HD Super Amoled display. But the Galaxy Note 2 is expected to have a slightly larger 5.5-inch display with WSXGA+ (1680×1050) and 360 pixel density. The reason for not going in with a full HD resolution is that human eye can’t perceive separate pixels if the pixel density is over 300 ppi, making it pointless. The Galaxy Note 2 will feature Super AMOLED Display with a similar PenTile matrix as the Galaxy S3.
Samsung is expected to utilise the Exynos 5250 processor which is built on latest ARM Cortex-A15 CPU processor architecture along with a much faster graphic engine for superior performance. Along with that the Galaxy Note 2 is also likely to get a 1.5 GB of RAM for clutter free operations. The Galaxy Note 2 is likely to have 15-megapixel camera with improved lens and image sensor for better images and videos.
If the news is to be believed then we will be much closer to the expected launch date for the device which earlier was for the month of October this year.
