New Delhi: Samsung will unveil its much-awaited phablet, the Galaxy Note 4, on September 3 at a pre-IFA 2014 event in Berlin, ahead of the rumoured unveiling of the anticipated iPhone 6, according to the Korean Times.
Samsung has launched the Galaxy Note series at or around IFA on all three occasions in the past. Samsung launched the Galaxy Note 3 on September 5 at an event at the sidelines of IFA in Berlin last year.
The Samsung Galaxy Note 4 may sport a superior hardware, better than the Samsung Galaxy S5, with an AMOLED display and a metal frame.
Samsung may also be launching a curved display version of the Galaxy Note 4, though it won't be aimed to the masses.
A listing on an Indian import/export website, Zauba, suggests that the alleged Galaxy Note 4 (SM-N910A) will come with a 5.7-inch display.
In addition, the Korea Times claims that the Galaxy Note 4 will sport a metal casing. That seems to line up with earlier rumors that Samsung is planning to launch not one but two more smartphones before the end of this year
The device is also expected to sport a Snapdragon 805 chipset for the Chinese, Korean, Japanese and North American markets, while all other regions including Europe would receive a variant with an Exynos SoC.
Notably, the Galaxy Note 4 is said to come with an ultraviolet sensor, which can measure UV radiation and offer the readings via the company's S Health app. The addition of UV sensor coincides with an earlier report, which also referred to the addition of the said sensor to the Galaxy Note 4.
