Samsung Galaxy Note 3 with Snapdragon 800 has Officially been Confirmed

With just two days left before the official announcement is made, or as you may call it "unpacking" of the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 at the company’s pre-IFA event, some leaks and rumors surrounding the device are continuously coming in very fast. The previous leaks have already given us some idea of what we can expect from the upcoming smartphone but most of the information is still entirely based on speculation.

The specification that everyone is most curious about is whether the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 will be powered by the quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 or the octa-core Samsung Exynos 5420. 

According to a leaked slide from a press conference about the company’s LTE-A network, which was held by South Korean mobile carrier KT Corporation, the Galaxy Note 3 is expected to ship with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 processor in the country. This isn’t that surprising, since the Qualcomm chipset is the only one that currently supports LTE-A networks.

By that logic, we can expect any countries that have LTE networks to receive the Qualcomm version of the device. The division of versions could just be along the same lines as that of the Samsung Galaxy S4, if lately Samsung hasn’t run into production issues with the Exynos 5420 as previously rumored. We will just have to wait till the official announcement to find out which regions will receive what versions of the device.

The Samsung Galaxy Note III is rumoured to feature a Super AMOLED full-HD display with a resolution of 1080x1920 pixels. as we mentioned earlier, It is likely to be powered by a quad-core Snapdragon 800/ Exynos octa-core processor with 3GB of RAM. The Galaxy Note 3 will also reportedly come with the lowest storage capacity of 32GB. It is said to boast of a 13-megapixel rear camera, a 3,200mAh battery, and run the Android 4.3.
