Samsung confirms next Galaxy Note will debut at Mobile Unpacked event this month

Posted in: Today's Chili

Not that there was much doubt, but Reuters reports an unnamed Samsung spokesperson has revealed that yes, the next Galaxy Note will be unveiled at its Mobile Unpacked event in Berlin on August 29th, a year after the original. Other than the existing speculation about a bigger screen, and the faster processor possibly revealed by benchmarks there’s not much else to say, yet, although with IFA kicking off two days later we’re sure the electronics giant will have more than one trick up its sleeve. So, any ideas on what the next generation phablet needs (NFC and a headset?) to keep its king-sized place atop the competition?

Save the date: Samsung Mobile Unpacked 2012 IFA event set for August 29th

Save the date Samsung starts sending out Mobile Unpacked 2012 invites

You know it’s nearly time for IFA 2012 when Samsung starts sending out the Mobile Unpacked invites. The event, famous for launching the phablet-defining Galaxy Note just one year ago, is scheduled to take place on August 29th and should see the official unveiling of that smartphone inbetweener’s successor. Though leaked details of a Note sequel have been scarce, we do have one slight indicator of what’s to come: benchmarks for a mysterious GT-N7100. If those test results are to be believed, we could be in store for a device refresh that packs the same processing powers of the Galaxy S III — quad-core Exynos bumped to 1.6GHz and Mali 400 GPU — along with the OEM’s bevy of Smart functions and, most notably, a stylus upgrade. Of course, the company could very well have other surprises up its sleeve, but given its penchant for extensive security measures, we’ll just have to wait to find out.
