In an attempt to preempt Apple’s anticipated next-gen iPhone event in September, Samsung is out to unveil its latest Galaxy Note phablet alongside a large-sized Galaxy S6 Edge on August 12.
According to SamMobile, the South Korean electronics manufacturer is reportedly preparing a refreshed Note (the Galaxy Note 5) with a metal and glass design similar to the larger Galaxy S6. The phablet is rumored to ship with a microSD slot, a redesigned S Pen stylus and more RAM.
On the other hand, the new and larger version of the Galaxy S6 Edge, which will reportedly be marketed as the “Galaxy S6 Edge+” is also set to release. It is likely to be powered by Samsung’s Exynos 7420 processor and ship with 3 gigabytes of RAM.
Reports are suggesting that Samsung should plan to move up its Note 5 and S6 Edge+ announcements in order to give its new handsets time to breathe before Apple drops its own next-generation iPhone in September. Especially considering that last year, Samsung’s devices lost their buzz due to them being unveiled around the same time as Apple’s iPhone 6 and 6 Plus.
We’ll have to see if the news turns out to be true and if it does how it affects Samsung’s sales.
