Samsung Galaxy Note 3 Unveiling LiveStream: WATCH 'Unpacked' Episode 2 Event HERE
Samsung will unveil the new Galaxy Note 3 today at its 'Unpacked' Episode 2 event later today and will broadcast it via livestream for those at home to watch.
The event starts at approximately 1 p.m. E.T. and will be held in Berlin, Germany. In order to tune into the unveiling readers can visit Samsung's Mobile YouTube page that can be accessed HERE. Samsung also will simultaneously hold a "live broadcasting event and first hands-on experience," in New York's Times Square.
The company has not confirmed that the Galaxy Note 3 will make an appearance today, but various tech outlets believe this is the place it will be introduced since the Galaxy Note 2 was unveiled around the same time at a similar 'Unpacked' event last year.
The Galaxy S3 showed up in a new AnTuTu benchmark score this week that revealed different specs for the device than what had previously been reported.
The score was spotted by @evleaks who tweeted out screenshots of it. The pictures also revealed a new list of specifications for the upcoming SM-N9005 model of the device
This version is set to feature a 1920x1080 display, a 2.3GHz quad-core CPU and 2.5GB RAM. The most commonly reported figure for the Galaxy Note 3's RAM has been 3GB. However, this new report contradicts previous rumors.
AndroidAuthority weighed in on why the figure might be different in the benchmark.
"Keep in mind that the device could actually have 3GB of RAM, but 512MB might be reserved for something else and therefore not counted," the site writes. "There's also the possibility that the screenshots and/or alleged specs aren't correct, so speculation is certainly advised."
Other recent Galaxy Note 3 rumors point to the device launching with an LCD display and an 8-megapixel camera in emerging markets.
The device is expected to launch with slightly more expensive components in other markets. This cheaper model will cater to countries that prefer purchasing low-end smartphones. This will give them an opportunity to own a high-end handset at a better price.
