Samsung Galaxy Note 3 To Come Without Flexible Display

Fans of Samsung device are always waiting for new devices from the Korean technology giant; and after the release of Samsung Galaxy S4 smartphone, people are keeping a close eye on the Galaxy Note 3-related reports.

People, who were waiting to see a flexible display with the launch of the Galaxy Note 3 smartphone, will be quite disappointed to know that the smartphone will come with an AMOLED display and it will not be a flexible one.

Korea Investment & Securities Co., in its note to investors, stated that the Galaxy Note 3 will be sporting a 6-inch AMOLED display and not an LCD display.

"Although equipment for most processes has been delivered and the supply of remaining equipment (only for a specific process) should be finalized in 1H13, we cannot say [Samsung Display] is ready to mass-produce flexible OLED panels. Production technology still seems incomplete, and even assuming the start of production in 2H13, shipments that can be supplied to finished products would be minimal. As such, we believe chances are slim for [Samsung Electronics] to adopt flexible OLED panels for its Galaxy Note 3 (slated for release in 2H13). [Samsung Electronics] will likely choose flexible OLED for its smartphones as a differentiating design feature but would need more time to adopt it for the major models," Android Authority quoted the report.

According to some latest rumors, the successor to the Galaxy Note 2 is going to be more powerful in terms of speed and graphics support than its predecessor.

A SamMobile report said that the Galaxy Note 3 will be powered by Samsung's own Exynos 5 Octa processor. The Exynos 5 is an eight-core processor that is a combination of two quad-core CPUs clocked at 1.7 GHz and 1.2 GHz.

Apart from the CPU, the bigger thing is going to be the GPU of the phone. According to the report, the Galaxy Note 3 is going to sport an eight-core Mali 450 GPU. If Samsung introduces the eight-core GPU in the Galaxy Note 3, the gaming experience on the device will be escalated to a new level.
