As some of you are already aware, Samsung will be unveiling the Note 3 this September 4 during the Unpacked event in Berlin. Two models of the Note 3 will arrive: one bearing the SM-N900 model number which is powered by a Samsung Exynos 5420 (Octa-Core) CPU, ARM Mali-T628 MP6 GPU, and 3GB LPDDR3 RAM; the other one having the model number SM-N9005 and is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 (MSM8974) CPU, Adreno 330 GPU and 3GB of LPDDR3 RAM.

Based on the list, the Philippines will “officially” receive the SM-N9005 variant which has support for LTE networks, and will be available through Globe, Smart and Sun as well. See image below.

Obviously, the Philippines is not listed to receive the octa-core variant but will be available in the following neighboring countries: Hong Kong, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand and Vietnam, to name a few.

Also included is a note from SamMobile’s source saying, “If your country gets both processor variants, it is a decision based on the marketing plan of Samsung. Which means if there are LTE networks in your country, Samsung will start with the LTE variant (Snapdragon 800) first.”

If you’re aware of the story behind the Samsung Galaxy S4 octa-core and quad-core variants, the same drill applies.

Samsung Galaxy Note 3 specs leaked

SamMobile has once again been informed by their reliable tipster about what goes inside the Samsung Galaxy Note 3. And based from what their informant said, it seems that the South Korean firm’s upcoming phablet is not gonna be a pushover.

According to the report, the SGN3’s engine will sport a total of 16-cores; a pair of quad-core processor from the CPU side (Exynos 5 Octa) and another 8 cores for the GPU (Mali 450). This is believed to be backed by a 3GB RAM which, if turns out to be true, is going to be the highest RAM in a smartphone.

The handset is said to run on the latest version of Android which will be displayed on a 5.99-inch S-AMOLED 1080p screen. It’ll also have a 13MP main camera that is more likely to be the same one as the one found on the Galaxy S4.

Of course, a handset with such configuration would require a humongous battery. Although the capacity wasn’t specified, the site claims that we can probably expect a bigger battery than the current Galaxy Note which is rated at 3100mAh.

This year’s IFA in Berlin is believed to be the time and place where the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 will make its first official debut. If we’re fortunate enough, we’ll be on site to cover the launch so stay tuned for that.
