Is Samsung showing a large smartphone or a small tablet? That's the question on everyone's lips following the Galaxy Note reveal at IFA 2011.
The Galaxy Note is a smartphone (not a tablet) in a new form factor-- a 5.3" 1280x800 resolution Super AMOLED display.
The touchscreen is pressure sensitive and handles stylus input (a rarity nowadays), as Samsung appears to be pushing the device for handwritten note-taking and sketching use.
Inside are a 1.4GHz dual-core processor and Android 2.3 (Gingerbread), as well as Bluetooth and wifi connections.
Completing the package are 2 cameras-- 8MP rear-facing and 2MP front-facing.
Samsung offers no launch date or pricing details yet, but we expect those will be available soon enough.
