Recent
reports have revealed that the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 is already being tested by
the South Korean company. This gives an indication that the upcoming successor
to the smartphone/tablet hybrid may be nearing its release date.
However if
the upcoming Samsung Galaxy Note 2 will be released within the year, it might
put it in a collision course with the upcoming iPhone 5 of Apple. Due to this, a
number of industry watchers speculated on how the Samsung device will fare
against the next-generation iPhone.
One of the
main differences between the iPhone 5 and the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 is its
screen size. The Samsung Galaxy Note 2 is expected to feature a 5.5-inch
display, which is much bigger compared to the reported 4-inch screen display of
the iPhone 5. Basing on a recent entry on a popular benchmark site, a recently
tested Samsung device will feature a quad-core 1.6GHz processor. This device is
believed to be the Samsung Galaxy Note 2, which would make it faster compared
to the recently-released Samsung Galaxy S3 although it remains uncertain if it
will be faster compared to the upcoming iPhone 5.
Speculations
have also emerged on the possibility that the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 will still
be using the Ice Cream Sandwich Android instead of the much newer Jelly Bean
Android OS. Reports have also pointed to the possibility that the Samsung
Galaxy Note 2 will be introduced during the IFA event that is scheduled to be
held on August 30, which will give it a few weeks lead in the market over the
iPhone 5, which will reportedly be launched sometime in October.
Some
speculations have also emerged on the materials that will be used on the
Samsung Galaxy Note 2 with some hinting at the possible use of premium
materials while others have pointed to the possible use of plastic for the
upcoming device.
It remains
uncertain how the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 will perform in the market against the
iPhone 5 of Apple although some analysts have already hinted at the possible
slowdown in the sales of other devices once the next iPhone is released into
the market.
