Leaked images of the Note 2 sent to GSMArena shows the device looking like a blown up version of the Galaxy S3. It is rumoured to sport a 5.5-inch display and a 1.6GHz quad-core processor.

Samsung Galaxy Note 2 tipped to be unveiled on the 29th of August

Journalists have received invites to a ‘Mobile Unpacked’ event that will be kicking off on the 29^th of August in Germany. Samsung is said to unveil the Galaxy Note’s successor at the event.

There are various clues that point out to the Galaxy Note 2’s unveiling in Germany. First of all, the invite’s graphics shows a magic wand that also looks like a stylus. Furthermore, the event will be kicking off in Berlin a few days before IFA. The 2011 IFA trade show was where the original Galaxy Note was unveiled.

If the Note 2 will be given its own event, it seems Samsung is doing the same with the Note’s successor like it did with the Galaxy S3. The S3 was thought to be unveiled at Mobile World Congress, but was unveiled in its own event a few months after in London.

Do you think Samsung will be unveiling the Galaxy Note 2 in its own event in Germany on the 29^th of August? Let us know through a comment.

Finally – Samsung Galaxy Note gets ICS update

After Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) rolled out to the Samsung Galaxy S2, many wondered when the latest version of Android would roll out to the hybrid device the Galaxy Note. If you’ve been wondering the same thing, we have good news for you. ICS has finally rolled out to the device.

Samsung’s PR team confirmed with Know Your Mobile that “the Ice Cream Sandwich update for Galaxy Note has been released and will be available when approved across the networks”.
