Although rumors have hit the net on the possible launch of the Samsung Galaxy S4 by January, a recent Korean Times report hints at the possibility that the South Korean company is already working on the Samsung Galaxy Note 3.

The supposed successor to the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 will reportedly feature an even bigger screen display at 6.3 inches. The report cited component suppliers as the source of the report on the supposed Samsung Galaxy Note 3, which indicated that Samsung will be using an OLED display instead of a LCD display.

The report did not reveal the possible release date of the supposed Samsung Galaxy Note 3 although speculations have emerged that it may be available in the market in the later part of 2013. The display screen of the supposed Samsung Galaxy Note 3 is a step-up from the 5.5-inch display screen of the second version of the device, which in itself is also slightly bigger compared to the 5.3-inch size of the display of the original Galaxy Note.

Even as a number of industry watchers have given not-so-positive comments on the bigger screen size of the display of the device, it has proved to be popular in the market. Sales of the Samsung Galaxy Note reached five million units within two months after it became available in the market.

If Samsung will maintain 16:9 aspect ratio for its upcoming device, the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 may have a display that is 0.4 inches taller and 0.7 inches wider compared to the second generation Galaxy Note. It will also give indications that the pixel density of the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 will be 350ppi, which is higher compared to the iPhone 5.

However with the increase in size, it will also mean that it will not be easy to keep the supposed Samsung Galaxy Note 3 in your pocket when you are not using it.

However, the bigger display for the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 may be offset with a slimmer frame or smaller bezel.

Whichever the case may be, it will remain to be seen if the supposed Samsung Galaxy Note 3 will duplicate the success of its predecessors in the market . . . that is if the report is proven to be accurate.
