Reported at Android Central and many other places this morning.
Looks like Engadget has reported this too, but they have the Sprint Press Release concerning the Galaxy Note II in addition to the Samsung PR.
Can't provide a link yet because I have too few posts.

Guessing this is just a placeholder link for now as it currently takes you to BAW - www.sprint.com/galaxynote2
I've bookmarked the Note II forums. Finally something worthy to replace my Sensation on TmoUSA.

We can do the work for you.
Here's another directly from Samsung US's Galaxy Note II page.
"Galaxy Note II marks the U.S. debut of Samsung’s Exynos™ 1.6 GHz quad-core processor optimized for LTE networks. It has 2GB of internal RAM; and comes with 16GB of onboard file storage and supports up to 64GB of additional memory with a microSD® card."

US Cellular has this priced at $299.00 and to ship by the end of October.

Recently, there's been a rumor going around saying that there will be a Galaxy SII Plus or Galaxy S3 that will be released with the iPhone 5 launch.
The new Galaxy SII plus would feature a 1.4 GHz dual core processor and possible upgrade on the screen resolution.
This one article kinda sums it all up.
Maybe the delay is because the phone needed some more upgrades to fight with the iPhone 5 (although I think the current Galaxy SII beats the speculated specs for the iPhone 5). Remember the SGSII passed FCC in April?
I would love an upgraded Galaxy SII on Sprint!
http://www.headlinesnews.net/15165/further-delays-suggest-samsung-galaxy-s2-‘plus’-for-us-market
The Samsung Galaxy S2 Plus or S3 is rumoured to boast a 1.4GHz processor and 1GB of RAM, along with the ever-popular Super AMOLED screen and TouchWiz user interface. The original S2 has already gained a massive following overseas, currently selling in volumes across the UK in excess of the iPhone 4.
As such, an upgrade to an already superb unit could be just what Samsung need to deliver the extra ‘wow’ factor required to give the iPhone 5 a run for its money. Of course, attempting to better the iPhone 5 is akin to grasping in the dark, but it certainly seems that Samsung have every intention of setting the bar for the market, and setting it rather high at that.

Please add any Samsung/Sprint related rumors to the One stop Information shop thread. I will then add them to the OP, thus reducing the number of threads to read through. And i did add this to my OP, thanks for sharing.
interesting ... we shall have to wait and see
The well-known tech site www.mobilecowboys.nl got a hint that the Galaxy SIII will arrive on March 13 in Turkey. This informant has proven himself reliable in the past.
The informant got this information from a saleslist that was shown to him. Therewere several devices on the list including the Galaxy SIII. Unfortunately the informant could not send a physical image. If this proves to be untrue then the informant also has been lied to.
So will we see the Galaxy SIII at MWC in Barcelon at the end of this month?
Except that he received the news of Galaxy SIII, he also was told that theiris a new variant of the Galaxy SII planned for release named the Galaxy S II Plus. And another variant of the Galaxy Note named the Galaxy Note S. These two devices are planned for Q4 this year right before christmas.

Not really of much use here, as the TMo Note will be using a Snapdragon CPU rather than an Exynos, making it more like the AT&T I717 Note than the N7000.

If I am correct, T-Mobile US released the HTC HD2 with some months of delay but the biggest bonus of that wait to customers was that they added more ram + 16gb sd card compared to the international version.
Now if their version of the Note is similar to the At&T, then I can't understand their strategy behind this release. I'm curious to see the official specs for their version of the Note.
T-mobile is fast!

Given that the Note II is likely to be announced and released in a couple of months, I don't see any point in releasing this model at all!

Not necessarily . Now with rumors ( I know) stating anywhere from a late August to late October release for Note 2, which I tend to believe based on 1 yr release trends of cell phone sequals, it seems that way for us tech freaks, but for the average consumer who doesn't care about xda, cpus, or rooting, they will love the OG note on T-Mobile.
Just my opinion

Nope.
Eww, and an S3 chip? Sounds like they're just getting rid of AT&T's stock.
We are destined to use the freaking EDGE. I'm fine with the 30kb/s download(I get around 256 kbs/s connection) You still can use internet, check email, read news, etc. But when it comes to Google navigation or searching for a location in Google maps, 256 drives me nuts....

Guys, this is what I've been waiting for. :good:
Samsung just released it’s Android 4.1 Jelly Bean kernel source code for the LTE Samsung Galaxy S III (GT-I9305). Don’t confuse this device with the dual-core snapdragon S4 US Variant as this is the European LTE variant. GT-I9305 has the same Quad-Core Exynos 4412 CPU and the same ARM’s Mali-400MP GPU as the international Samsung Galaxy S III (GT-I9300).The only differences are that the European LTE variant uses 2GB RAM instead of 1GB and has LTE Radios.
This means that 3rd party Android developers, like the CyanogenMod team, can use European LTE Galaxy S III’s (GT-I9305) Android 4.1 Jelly Bean kernel source code to fix major bugs like the Memory Leak, HW Composer and Mali GPU related issues they were having with the International Samsung Galaxy S III (GT-I9300) as these both devices are very much identical. This source code can vastly improve and improve their Custom ROMs.

What do you think, best phone ever? If they would only pack it with a non-pentile-screen also, but at this point I can't say no any more, coming from my Arc S.
It will be interesting to see benchmark results and what difference the RAM might do.
The i9300 isn't the best phone now i9305 is...I don't under stand Samsung it been 4 month and release a better phone

My thoughts exactly. Seriously, what company releases a new model to replace their top of the line phone within 4 months of release. I love my Samsung phones but this is really bad form on Samsungs part.
Imagine if Apple releases the iPhone 6 in 4 months time. There will be riots. It won't happen. So much for resale value on the S3 i9300. Once stock runs out here in Oz it will no longer be sold. Replaced by the i9305.

Frankly, this is what I expected the initial GS3 to be like. This and a non-pentile screen. Maybe old Sammy didn't finish LTE-integration in time for the GT-I9300, and maybe they packed it with only 1 gig RAM to save a few bucks. Idunno. Sorry to say, I think we're gonna have to live with 720-pen-tile 'til spring next year.
But this version is going to be... blistering! Especially after the buzz with launcher redraws due to lack of RAM, I'm looking forward to the comparisons. It comes in all-black as well.
I wonder what the coming Nexus will be based on. Do we dare to hope? I don't think Sammy will allow a copy of GT-I9305 as a Nexus, but man would it be nice.
Let's sit and wait for a release date.
If all GT-i9300 ROMs work on this i9305 then I'm sold instantly.
From what i've heard LTE uses quite a lot of ram so that's why it's needed in the I9305 version...

Wonder if you'll be able to install apps to external SD on this one?
BS...
Didn't the iphone 4s come out like 5 or 6 months after the iphone 4? I know a few people swapped the 4 for the 4s.
I for one will be selling my s3 as soon as the s3 lte version comes out.
I was hoping it was out next week or thereabouts but it's looking doubtful.
This version will work on 3g network? I mean, o have a 9300 and i wanna change for 9305 but im not shure if will work on brasilian network.

Most likely true, but the RAM will come in handy even when LTE is shut off.

Yes, it will still work with 2G, 3G and 3.5G.
No it doesnt use that much ram it would use as much as the korean version and I have a screenshot showing 1.1gb Free Ram and thats with alot of tasks running. I have been waiting for this phone for over 1 month now its pretty old news, It was released in australia yesterday but its 16gb version so I am waiting for the 32gb which I will snap up straight away shouldnt be that much longer now.
And this will the the final release of the flagship phone before the S4 who cares why is everyone crying they releasing a better phone. Better for us we have more options now. I actually cant wait to get my hands on this one in my opinion this is how the original specs should look like finally they actually thought abit and released it
Because many people bought this phone outright for $800+ at launch

Its a nice phone and if I was in the market today I would get one instead of the i9300... 1.1g of free ram is nice, but frankly if you have that much "free" at any point in time its just wasted. Had zero multitasking issues with the i9300..
Don't worry guys.... after all releases of any Samsung models you will still go for whatever phone you want to buy...you will always be disappointed, that's how they control consumers... just think!!!
I thought we already know how this works!This people at Samsung sales are just laughing.... So why don't we just stay with what phone we have and maybe change it after 2 years, that's how it's suppose to be.
Except if you have a lot of money to spend with buying top of the line phones. Then go for it!
It was when there was a problem of getting a quad-core to work with a 4G LTE Chipset (Reason why all the American S3 's have dual-cores). They only were able to find a solution when they were testing the Galaxy Note 2. Since then, they can now get the new Quad-core into the Galaxy S3 with 4G. 4G also will use more RAM than its predecessor.
Even Apple tried to fix it, until recently they were able to fit the quad-core A6 chip into their iPhone5 with LTE. They could have put in a quad-core into their iPad 3, but didn't at the time cuz of the 4G / Quad-core incompatibility, instead they used the A5X (The original dual-core A5 processor hyper-threaded to a logical 4 cores) not a quad-core.
Well, now we're all gonna be getting more powerful quad-core powered phones with 4G!!!
wel I will let you know if its wasted ram or not when I get it I will report back. I also bought the l9300 But I didnt pay 800, Few hundred dollars less. And I will sell it after I buy the I9305, I will be out of pocket maximum $100 so I think that's a good deal.
Found this on Ebay Australia - http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Samsung-...51181232414?pt=US_Tablets&hash=item3a7b91711e
I want one....
Though reading through the specs they seem a little bit wrong, what do you think?
Either its just been launched or the add is fake for couple of reasons US does not have a 3G version and second its list OS as 4.1 which is JB which is not out yet so do not think this is a gen add
Alot of the specs are wrong. It smells fishy, for example it lists ram as 1GB but my note has 2.

Lots wrong. Camera, memory, comes with case? All seems odd. But the oddest part, why the work PHOTOSHOP in the description? Are you just buying a picture?
I also chked ebay. Sellers seems to be taking buyers for a ride. I found a 32gb Note 10.1 with WiFI +3G. But fine print revealed that it is a 16GB Note with 16GB Micro SD Card. There is no 32/64Gb Note with wifi+3G in US Mkt.
Yeah I've seen that... But it is the genuine Oz ebay, but saying that ebay can be host to some dodgy sellers too....
Maybe there's a different model in Korea....
I do have a 32GB 3G note 10.1 however, but only found it from 1 seller here in Oz - JB Hifi...
And it comes with two batteries..... This cannot be real.

There never will be any 3G Note in the U.S. market as Samsung doesn't sell unlocked devices here. Any 3G Note sold in the U.S. was imported from somewhere else. A Note passed through the FCC with AT&T's LTE bands but that's been it so far. And I'm sure the calling and messaging features will be disabled because, well, it's AT&T.
