The Galaxy Note 3 will feature a 5.7-inch LCD display.

Other specifications on the device will include 3GB of RAM and Android 4.3, according to a new report from AndroidGeeks. LTE versions of the new Note will come with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 chipset. The Korean model will be LTE-Advanced ready and will come with that same processor.

There also might be a variant of the phablet that uses the new Samsung Exynos Octa processor.

A new benchmarks leak that featured the Galaxy Note 3 surfaced earlier this week.

The performance of the handset is on par with the Galaxy S4, according to the data. The model used in the benchmarks was assumed to be a test model so the final version is expected to perform at even faster speeds.

Two new pictures believe to be of the Galaxy Note 3 were posted by a site known as Weibo. It showed the display of the device and some of its internal components. The pictures are not high quality and don't reveal many details about the handset.

Other publications have stated Samsung is still deciding whether or not to use an OLED display on the upcoming phablet. The company is waiting to see if its display-making unit is able to achieve adequate production yields in order to supply the masses with the device.

Samsung will wait until the end of August to decide if they want to give the Note 3 a flexible display or not. However, this contradicts some of the recent rumors that point to the company unveiling the device in the beginning of September. The report also reiterates that Samsung will ship multiple variants of the Note 3 including versions with LCD, glass-based OLED and plastic-based OLED.
