Samsung Galaxy Note 3 rumoured for 5.99-inch 1080p display, octa-core processor

Itching for the latest scuttlebutt on the Samsung Galaxy Note 3? There are some more details as to the specs of the device thanks to SamMobile. The site believes that the next iteration of the device will fit a 5.99-inch 1080p panel into roughly the same dimensions as the Galaxy Mega 5.8. How exactly is Samsung going to pull that off? By shrinking down the bezel on the Note 3 as much as possible. It’s the same tactic that the company used for the Galaxy S4. The South Korean manufacturer managed to slim down the bezel on the design of the handset to accommodate a 5-inch panel, a slight bump from the 4.8-inch display of the Galaxy S III. As for the display tech itself, SamMobile believes that once again Samsung will use Super AMOLED technology in a similar pixel arrangement to the Galaxy S4.

Other specifications are said to include an Exynos octa-core processor along with 3GB of RAM and a 13-megapixel camera, most likely the same sensor found on the Galaxy S4. In addition, the Note 3 may feature an even more powerful octa-core Mali 450 GPU. Just like previous rumours indicated, the device will run the latest version of Android, most likely 4.3 given recent indicators.

SamMobile closes by saying that the Galaxy Note 3 could be announced either in August or September. The most likely scenario is for Samsung to unveil the handset at IFA 2013, as the company announced the Galaxy Note II at the same event last year.
