Samsung Galaxy Note III is said to be launching on September 4 at an Unpacked event sponsored by the South Korean company during the IFA 2013 in Berlin, according to new claims from a technology blog.

Samsung Galaxy Note III is expected to feature a 5.99-inch screen with stylus support, according to Times of India. The phone may also run on 2.2GHz Qualcomm Snapdrago 800 quad-core processor or 1.8GHz eight-core Exynos processor, according to Tech Grapevine. Because Galaxy S4 comes in both variants, Samsung using two CPU options in its flagship phablet Note III is a possibility, the Times reported.

Antutu reported that the unannounced Galaxy Note III may run on Android 4.3 and powered by a 1.6GHz quad-core processor. Other rumors say that Galaxy Note III will have a display resolution of 1920x1080p and 13-megapixel camera with optical image stabilization, swapped in from the Galaxy S4.

Samsung Galaxy Note III may offer a large screen measuring 5.7, 5.8, or possibly 6 inches or more. Moreover, it is rumored to have the bright, vivid Samsung Super AMOLED panel like the Note I and II, which replicates colors amazingly and immaculately.
