A leaked photo may have revealed the Samsung Galaxy Note 2, an upcoming smartphone that will compete with the new iPhone by offering an even bigger screen, reports KnowYourMobile.
Our source tells us that the device will feature a 5.5-inch display, confirming earlier reports that it would be even bigger than its predecessor, but did not go into specifics about the display technology - our guess would be that Samsung will use one of its Super AMOLED setups.
The Galaxy Note 2, like the Samsung Galaxy S3, will feature a quad-core processor, presumably Samsung's Exynos 4 Quad, as well as 2GB of RAM and Samsung's next-generation S-Pen technology, making it one hell of an update.
Nokia and Microsoft are also readying some competition for the new iPhone and have announced a press event just one week before the expected 'iPhone 5' unveiling.

Well I dont know how many Car chargers, docking stations in home, weekend house and office you have? Will you buy all extensions which you already bought for iPhone 4, and later for iPhone 4S.
I really hate Apple now, :( Apple become same as LG, Samsung, Sony, Huawei....

ONE HELL OF AN UPDATE?
if i need to buy a new device its no update. New models every 6 months confuse the market. And devices with UN-upgradable operating systems are just plain JUNK and a WASTE to buy.

Yea I always thought it was strange that some of these android devices only support up to a certain version of the OS and can't be upgraded to the newer versions and the version it only supports is the version it shipped with, I would understand of my fridge had a computer and it didn't support getting updated but not a tablet device or phone. It's very short sighted thinking.

Un upgradeable operating system maybe, but it is still extremely productive OS compared to ios thats being updated every now and then but with limited capability
