Samsung Galaxy Note: Release Date, Specs and Price (Update)

Posted on Friday, October 28, 2011 by Unknown



After such success of the galaxy lineup for samsung specially the galaxy S and galaxy S2 it is no wonder that samsung wants to enhance the galaxy line up and seeing as the trend is going towards bigger and more powerful smart phones Samsung has announced the Galaxy Note a 5.3-inch handset with a pen for notetaking and drawing. It blurs the line between a phone and a tablet. Already many are regretting buying a galaxy S2 after seeing this phone. At this time Samsung has only officially announced the black color Samsung Note but i expect the company will also release a White Galaxy Note after some time just like they did with the White Galaxy S2.

Galaxy Note Features and Specs:

Samsung Galaxy Note will run Android OS most probably OS v2.3 at the time of release as Android Ice Cream Sandwich v4.0 will not be available at the time of release. It will come with TouchWiz on top of Android thus having seven home screens and a touch optimized interface dubbed "S Pen" designed to take advantage of that pen. These include S Planner, a native calendar and to-do list app, from which you can drag and drop appointments, changing time slots without having to open an entry. S Memo for note-taking, meanwhile, accepts voice, photo, text and handwritten input. Samsung also says that it's releasing S pen SDK to third party developers and it's hoping for more apps for note taking, organizing photos and drawing as well as other things.

Specs:
  • 1.4GHz Dual-Core ARM Cortex-A9 processor.
  • Mali-400MP GPU
  • Samsung Exynos Processor
  • 5.3-inch Super AMOLED Display 1280x800.
  • 8 Megapixel LED Flash Camera with HD 1080p videos recording Back.
  • 2 Megapixel Camera Front.
  • LTE and HSPA+.
  • Removable 2,500mAh battery.
  • Dimensions 146.9 x 83 x 9.7 mm.
  • Weight 178 g.
Samsung Galaxy Note Release Date:

According to sources the release date of Samsung Galaxy Note will be Late November 2011 in UK. Rest of the places around the world will probably be getting it around the same time as well however if you are in US looking at how long it took Galaxy S2 to reach there its not sure when it will be available there.

Samsung Galaxy Note Price:

According to the source the Galaxy Note will have an approximate price of £500 ($773) + VAT in UK. So other places around the world will also have a similar price.

Update:


Samsung has just announced the official release date for the Galaxy Note at the Battersea Powerstation in London. The Galaxy Note will start its roll-out from Germany on October 29 with the Netherlands, Belgium, the UK and France following in the next few days. By the end of November most of Europe should have already received the Gingerbread-running tablet-slash-phone.

Samsung also announced that there will be a white version of the Galaxy Note, complete with a white S Pen. The company will also be releasing a bunch of nice accessories for the Note, including a cool-looking leather carrying case.
