Supposed Samsung Galaxy Note 3 Specifications Surface

MyDrivers.com has managed to unearth some rumored specifications and a rather fingerprint-smeared image of the Samsung’s Galaxy Note III. The upcoming phablet will feature reportedly be powered by a Samsung Exynos 5 Octa chipset paired with a Quad Core 2.0 GHz ARM Cortex A15 + Quad Core 1.7 ARM Cortex A7 [Ed: We don't know if this is a bad translation or if Samsung actually put two SoCs on the same chipset instead of fabricating its own CPU].

The device is rumored to be formally unveiled at IFA 2013 which takes place in October 2013.

    If they made a gigantic DROID RAZR MAXX HD phablet, I would die happy.

    I already have Galaxy Note II and its huge. I think when I make future upgrades ill go with the S4 or S5. 5" screen would suit me fine.

    5.99"?! Maybe they are counting on people using BT headset w/ voice commands, and the phone never leaves the backpacks. ;-)

    I wish Samsung would clean up some of the TouchWiz interface. It's not bad, just a little chunky.
    Other than that, this should be a stellar device. My Note 10.1 is essentially a laptop replacement (using a bluetooth keyboard and mouse), and the stylus input is great, especially for constant note-takers like students.
