The latest in the Note series and one of the most-awaited Samsung devices today, Galaxy Note 3 has been making rounds on the Web for a number of unconfirmed features and leaks. The device is speculated to be the world's biggest smartphone ever at 6.3-inches and it wouldn't be surprising to confuse the cellular device for a tablet, or a phablet, to be more precise. According to a Concept Phones reports, the device will be 9 mm in thickness and will come with a 4500 mAh battery. The design would be pretty simple and basic, a rectangular shape.
"Samsung Nexus 6 uses a 6.3 inch Super AMOLED Plus Full HD screen, the likes of which is rumored to be used on the future Note. There's also an Exynos 5 Octa CPU, probably with big.LITTLE technology, 3 GB of RAM, also a likely feature of the Note III and 128 GB of storage, plus microSDXC. At the back we've got a 13 megapixel camera and upfront a 2 megapixel one, both with Full HD capture," the report adds.
