In the Middle East, the Jarir Bookstore has posted listings for both the Samsung Galaxy Note 5, and the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+. While neither listing included a photo, the specs for each model were posted. This would be a good time to remind you to head over to your pantry so that you can take this story with the proverbial grain of salt. If you're on a salt-restricted diet, a pinch of Mrs. Dash will do just fine.
According to the listing for the Samsung Galaxy Note 5, the device will feature a Gorilla Glass 4 protected 5.7-inch Super AMOLED screen with a 1440 x 2560 resolution. Under the hood is the Exynos 7422 SoC, which includes an octa-core CPU. 4GB of RAM is inside along with 32GB/64GB of native storage. Yes Virginia, there is a 128GB capacity microSD slot on the Note 5 for those requiring additional memory. A rear-facing 16MP camera is on board, along with a 5MP front-facing shooter. A 4100mAh battery powers the phablet, which has Android 5.1 pre-installed. The Galaxy Note 5 will be available in black or gold. Weighing in at 169 grams, the device measures 7.6mm thick.
The Samsung Galaxy S6 edge+ will also feature a Gorilla Glass 4 protected 5.7-inch Super AMOLED screen with a 1440 x 2560 resolution. The Exynos 7420 SoC will power the handset with an octa-core CPU and the Mali-T760 MP8 GPU. 4GB of RAM inside. 32GB/64GB of internal storage is inside and the back to front camera combo is 16MP/5MP. A 3000mAh battery keeps the engines humming, and Android 5.1 is pre-installed. Under expansion slot the listing says Not Specified, so don't count on expandable memory. The Galaxy S6 edge+ is 6.9mm thin and weighs 156 grams.
Pricing for both devices was not listed. The Samsung Galaxy Note 5 and Samsung Galaxy S6 edge+ will be officially unveiled on August 13th and the Unpacked event in New York City.

Seems to be the rumor for other areas in the world... I guess we can just hope for our area to atleast get it..
I can live with no removable battery but SD card is a must for me specially if the base model will be 32 GB. I hope these rumors are true.
I wish people would stop playing with my emotions like this lol. I've heard yes/no/yes/no/yes/no. Luckily it's just a few days away.

Is this reputable? Everything I've seen is to the contrary.
It's extremely unlikely that Samsung will not include an SD card slot on the Note 5 despite all the rumours.

Why so? Sd card was excluded on the s6
The Notes were/are really aimed at businessmen & women.
Early rumours about no SD were never substantiated.
I believe only the international version will have a micro SD card slot.

Ya know there is a thread already about this very topic.. Just not as specific to just the SD card.
And as expected no sd card expansion on the note 5
Confirmed by Samsung itself. Moderators should close all these pointless (and incorrect/misleading) posts.

Welcome to circa 2015 - 2016....
Where Samsunk let loose of everything that it held Near & Dear.. :crying:
And Bowed Down To The Will Of Apple.
Thread Closed as this is all misleading and incorrect speculation.
The Samsung Unpacked Event...which by the way occurred yesterday 08/13/15 proves all of this incorrect also.
In lieu of avoiding the trolls and and back and forth, this thread has served its purpose.

Late this past spring, we heard about the first microSD card that would hit the 64GB mark, setting new limits for how much data you could store on your smartphone. While the cards were announced months ago, they're just now becoming commercially-available products, and SanDisk is the first to bring one to market.
We had guessed back in May that one of these 64GB cards might fetch somewhere in the $200-300 range, and that's pretty spot-on; SanDisk's 64GB card goes for about $220. Obviously, you're paying a premium for getting all that data crammed into one tiny package. An 8GB microSD card with the same speed rating (class 6) can be had for $11, which comes out to about $1.38 per gigabyte. For this 64GB card, you're paying $3.44 per gigabyte, or two and a half times as much.
Then there's the problem of compatibility to deal with. The new 64GB card is a microSDXC device, not just the SDHC we're familiar with. SDHC tops-out at 32GB, and smartphones will need to be able to communicate with SDXC cards in order to take advantage of their increased storage space. We'll absolutely start seeing SDXC support in future phones, both as the prices of the cards drop, and user storage needs grow. For the moment, at least, you'll have to be content at 32GB.

Via: IntoMobile
Which phone would you purchase? Let's hypothetically say the after one year the price of the card dropped to $129.00 as well. Right now you can buy the card at the ridiculous price of $229.00.
This guy said he is using this card with a galaxy S2 right now and I believe him because I just saw a video with somebody using the sd card on the galaxy s 2.

Thank you. I will vote later I don't want to influence the poll.
i'd say the Galaxy S II easily, yea yea i really don't care about getting the update first due to the great devs we got on xda(which we'll most likely get them early) and if not we'll definitely have some great roms to hold us off until then
Epic touch does have better specs. Nexus will have better software. Just depends if you always want he latest software or not. Right now the epic touch can get 48 gb of storage. 16 on board and a 32 gb sd card. Galaxy nexus only has 16.

I'm not sold on the Galaxy Nexus like everyone else is. But the finger print magnet / plastic cheap casing of the E4GT doesn't impress me either.
Galaxy Nexus for me. I've yet to own a Nexus buy my gf's nexus S makes me jealous everytime she gets an update.
Which ever phone has the best hardware, being rooted already gives us access to better sotware. Memory wise, in a year with this phone, I still have 8 gig available on my 16 gig micro sd so memory is not really an issue

The choice is simple. Galaxy Nexus. After my experience with the Epic, I'm never getting another skinned Samsung phone ever again. I prefer having the latest software to the latest hardware. When you think about it, not much apps truly take advantage of more advanced hardware, save for a few Tegra exclusives, which can be played on the Epic anyways with chainfire.

Yep, hardware is totally secondary to me after having the EPIC. The dev's have been great for this phone, especially as of late, but TouchWiz seems to create so many pointless obstacles for development. Flashing rom's is like a straight up hobby/joy in my android world, I enjoy having as many options as possible.
Neither. I still have 4GB free on my 16 GB so storage isn't and issue especially with mine being mostly backups.

I'm with zander, if I were giving up the Epic at this point and those were my 2 choices, I'd go with the Touch in a heartbeat, and it wouldn't have anything to do with the SD card size. I still have plenty of room on my 16GB as well.

i guess the nexus, because an 64 card, i would never use all of it. all of my music in amazon, and some on the card, and most of the stuff on the card are back ups. and scan at the begin, when turn on the phone would take forever with an 64G card.
I would go with the Galaxy Nexus. The E4GT's screen is too grainy, at 800x480. Played with it in the store. 1280x720 is way better, pentile or not.
In 6 months when all phones are rocking 1280x720 displays, E4GT will be the red-headed stepchild on the block.
Not to mention no NFC chip on the E4GT. And the software update aspect. And the non-standard drivers (no Wiimote, etc).

Samsung Galaxy Note 2 release date set for October with Exynos 5250 processor
When the Galaxy Note 2 will released and will Samsung be able to surprise the world again?
The Galaxy Note 2 release date is set to October 2012 and it will feature slightly larger display 5.5-inch display and dual-core Exynos 5250 processor.
It’s been over half a year since the Galaxy Note was released and over 7 million units are sold worldwide and Samsung plans to sell around 10 million Galaxy Notes. Due to its incredible success Samsung has started to work on its predecessor the Galaxy Note 2.
Information about upcoming Galaxy Note 2 is limited but we know its name and when it will be released but the rest is mystery. We know that the Galaxy S3 will be inspired from the Galaxy S3 so it will look similar and feature the same technologies and services like S Beam, S Voice, NFC, SmartStay and others.
It is reported that the Galaxy Note will have slightly larger 5.5-inch display with WSXGA+ (1680×1050) and 360 pixel density. Why no Full HD resolution? Human eye can’t perceive separate pixels if the pixel density is over 300 ppi, it means that going above it is pointless. The Galaxy Note 2 will feature Super AMOLED (non-Plus) display from PenTile matrix family because these displays last longer and are more power efficient that true RGB AMOLED Plus displays.
Before the Galaxy S3 was announced, there were rumors that it will have the Exynos 5250 processor which is built on latest ARM Cortex-A15 CPU processor architecture but that didn’t turn out to be true. Samsung has Exynos 5250 processor on its arsenal and it would be logical to use it for the Galaxy Note 2 due to its performance and power efficiency.
The Galaxy Note 2 will have 8-megapixel camera with improved lens and image sensor for better images and videos. RAM will be increased to 1.5 GB and the 4G LTE connection will come by default for international version.
The Galaxy Note 2 design will be similar to its smaller bother, the Galaxy S3 and above you can see an image to get an idea how it will look like. Last two devices, the Galaxy S3 and Focus 2 clearly shows where Samsung is going with its industrial design.
The Galaxy Note 2 release date is scheduled for October 2012
The release date of the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 is not yet confirmed and could be inaccurate as we are few months away from its debut. Once we will know more about the Galaxy Note 2 and its release date we will let you know so consider subscribing to our Facebook or Google+ page to find out more.

I seriously hope this is not true, as much as I want the Note 2 I have to say its too soon, less than a year is just just too soon and also sends out the message ,'note 1 was a failure but since we see potential we release a Note 2 in less than a year'.
If this happens its gonna upset so many consumers who just bought the Note 1. Hoping that this article is not true I have to say, I'll believe it when I see it.

My pocket can endure 0.2" added bashing. But I guess physical size will remain the same and slightly thinner than current GNote.

Using the note1, i'm pretty much convinced it's the phone for me, as for note2, I'll see when it comes out. Releasing it in October is really too soon, wonder if it's just another trick of Samsung to try and deter consumers from buying phones from competitors by making us wait for note2 or they've really gotten hold of enough market stats to have decided on the note2's design, chipset etc.

Anybody's guess. I am sure their guess about screen size is wrong.
@Galaxy Note™…
To everyone saying its too soon you need to realize that the Galaxy note has been out since october in europe. So if it is scheduled for a october announcement it isn't too soon. Its given a year the way technology is moving. I was looking to get the note but I will wait longer just to see. My sister in law has it and I love it when I get to play with the note. Besides it might be released in october but the way carriers screw us in the states we won't see it till february like the first note.

hmmm my theory, if they wont announce higher resolution then note 2 screen size will be the same, because what's the point making bigger screen with same resolution and lower ppi? also i think that it will be something similar to s3 features + some spen features.
According to an article in Korea times ...s4 will be released in Feb 2013...so most of us who did not upgrade to galaxy s3 should wait about 6 more months to get the most powerful beast in our hands...

This is to destroy the so fana iphone 5 benchmark im sure ,! But please not too big Samsung !

If they go for anything larger than the S3 they can forget about me buying that.
S3's size is utterly ridiculous (can't find many people who can 100% interact with it with only one hand), anything larger that that will be just sad.
Only thing left is to pray to the electronics god that Google makes their next Nexus in the size of the current one / S2's! can't imagine a better phone size, bigger than the tiny iPhone (yea, talking about the new fella) but easy to play with using one hand only.
if only the'll be able to also make it Super AMOLED Plus (like the S2's non-PenTile, but with S3's resolution).
S4 might not have a screen larger than S3 since the current size distinction gives proper difference between the S and Note lines. If size goes beyond 4.8 will impact sales of either of them.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk 2
The more I use my S2..the more I feel it's the perfect size. I had a GNex for a bit and it was just a tad too wide. I think something the size of the s2 with a edge to edge screen would be great.
Yeah then we wait for the S5 next year :banghead: and S6 the year after that

S4? U kidding they have to dump a huge number of S3 into market.. After huge success of this they ll plan for S3 with Dual sim then when competitors move to hexa core or jump into 2GB RAM then they start S4 may be,,
My wishlist for S4-
1. Quad core 2GHZ preferably Tegra 3 .
2. 2GB RAM with nVidia GPU.
3. 4.3" Super AMOLED HD display with 720*1280 res (Enough )
4. Design of S2 is must( Best designed phone)
5. Aluminum casing for back cover with S logo.
6. 12 MP camera carl zeiss.. (Nokia Fan)

May I ask, why Nvidia GPU? I should say that most benchmarks say that our mali-400mp4 clocked at 266mhz is just as powerful as the full clocked tegra 3 gpu variant, plus we have a much lower resolution screen than any tegra 3 powered deice I have ever seen, meaning our device can end up playing better games that quite a few of the devices with the tegra chip in it. Like with full effects enabled on dead trigger, it is so much smoother than my nexus 7 with it's gpu overclocked from 416mhz to 520mhz. Personally I would take the overclocked 440mhz mali-400mp4 in the s3 anyday over any nividia GPU. Althoug, the gpu going to be used in some of the new exynos 5 chips which should power the s4, looks incredible.

Because I saw my friends Nexus 7 which played dead trigger more finely and smoother(Even mine was smoother ) so i thought tegra would be nice. Is S4 confirmed?
Like I give a ****.
Seriously, the longer I wait for Jelly Bean, the more I want a Nexus.
Besides that I hope they won't make the screen any bigger. Otherwise we'll run around with 11" smartphones and 17" tablets very soon.

According to Sammobile latest news, Samsung denied an S IV release in february or march. Link from source: http://sammyhub.com/2012/09/18/samsung-debunks-galaxy-s-iv-rumor/. Another link is http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_responds_to_galaxy_s_iv_rumors_debunks_them-news-4819.php
If someone released a 4inch Nexus with good hardware and a solid build I'd be all over it like a rash.
Instead the phones are getting too big and too ugly. I've never had an iPhone but I can see the appeal. You invest in an iPhone 5 now and you're guaranteed long term software support and your device maintains its value. I'm sick of all these phones coming out that feel outdated and forgotten in 6 - 12 months. Who do you hear saying "don't buy an iphone 5 the iphone 6 is coming out next year".

Sadly you're kinda right.
I've already made my decision. My next phone will be a Nexus, period.
I could forgive the longer wait for updates, if I'd actually use them. At the moment the only reason I'm waiting for updates is because the cm team can make a proper one with those.
There is only one manufacturer that does great modifications to android, but those phones aren't available here. :'(

It’s 2015 and hence time for a new Galaxy S Series flagship from Samsung. In earlier reports Samsung has claimed that it will completely change what we have witnessed in the Galaxy S line so far, starting from scratch there will be an all new Galaxy S6. As it goes for a Samsung flagship, the specifications that the Galaxy S6 will hold will be nothing short of impressing but the dream to get 4 Gigs of Ram isn’t just here yet. The Galaxy S6 is already cooking up and not a long time back arrived in India for R&D purposes, hence our sources have managed to secure some information on the specifications the flagship will boast.
These specifications are intended for the Asian units, that have since beginning relied on the Exynos SoC’s. The variants intended for the North American and European markets will be using a Snapdragon SoC’s instead (Snapdragon 810 Likely), while keeping the Ram, Display, Battery and undisclosed specs identical.
Also beside the already anticipated spec-sheet, the Galaxy S6 will be using a Metal Exterior (similar to Galaxy A Series) with a new much slimmer design. Stay tuned for more updates and feel free to share your thoughts about the next Galaxy S flagship.
SPECS:
5.2 Inch Quad HD Display (Amoled)
3GB Ram & 64GB Internal Storage (Micro SD Missing in test Units)
Non-removable Battery (2800mAh)
Exynos 7420 Octa-Core Processor (Dual Quad-Core)
Finger Print Scanner
Heart Rate Monitor
Android 5.0.1 (running units)
20MP Rear & 5MP Front Camera Unit
The specs are pretty much accurate (not very hard to guess as they've been predicatble for years.) but that picture/render is wishful thinking.
Aside from the fact that test units come in fake cases, as they've always done, these leaked images are always fake, every year in a row.

It's looking like this will fix all the wrongs of the S5:
Class leading CPU/GPU on 14nm
Premium metal build
Touch based fingerprint sensor
20 mp 2nd gen Samsung ISOCELL sensor with phase detect autofocus and OIS
The next evolution of AMOLED
I'll be all over this as long as Touchwiz is not a complete disaster

It’s 2015 and hence time for a new Galaxy S Series flagship from Samsung. In earlier reports Samsung has claimed that it will completely change what we have witnessed in the Galaxy S line so far, starting from scratch there will be an all new Galaxy S6. As it goes for a Samsung flagship, the specifications that the Galaxy S6 will hold will be nothing short of impressing but the dream to get 4 Gigs of Ram isn’t just here yet. The Galaxy S6 is already cooking up and not a long time back arrived in India for R&D purposes, hence our sources have managed to secure some information on the specifications the flagship will boast.

Here is the leaked design of Samsung S6
http://androidjail.com/samsung-galaxy-s6-specification-body-leaked/85
The quad hd is a mess . in normal use , practically you don't need it
This post is misleading about rumors
Do you think that will be hard to have bug free custom roms with the exynos cpu?
I'm looking forward to March 1st... there should be some pretty cool info at the unveiling.
I'm all in for another Galaxy, but all these leaks without a sdcard slot make me a bit nervous.
Don't give your hopes up guys and really don't put too much stock into all these leaks. For the last few years all the supposed reliable leaks have been wrong and Samsung basically reintroduced the same damn phone. Well their not getting me this year no more hurt feelings, so until I see add to cart next to a s6 picture the new s6 is the s5 with upgraded hardware
Moto X 2014
Prediction: S6 will be an uglified but high spec S5, much like the S5 was an uglified S4 with better internals. Add the new crown jewel Exynos SoC, revamped KNOX and Samsung's traditional hamfisted massacre of Android, and I further predict less dev support than ever.
hi
i phone 5 and s6 this kind of better, I want to buy either and are wondering
2800 mah battery? omg! why samsung not trying to improve battery performance? 2800 mah will be enough?
Thread Closed.
As we have multiple threads about the specifications of the S6, one official one has been opened here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6/general/specs-samsung-galaxy-s6-specifications-t3034238

We are very Very Sorry..
Unfortunately, I'm fairly certain that we will never get the sources required for a proper custom ROM on this device, mainly because it is Mediatek.
Waiting for Redmi Note 4 Pro (Snapdragon)...
They will launch Snapdragon version in India due to patent issues with Erricson. So we might get our hands on the source code just like Note 3.

Ya you are right mediatek device is the main issue about this phone. one thing I have also notice camera quality is not much better
The Snapdragon 652 will be a beast on this phone, especially when the ROMs start rolling in.

Do you know on average how much time it will take for them to release it? by comparing with past devices?

So it's MediaTek? I have 3 MT devices, none of them have enough space in the user partition. I thought that was the reason why there were slow and unresponsive.
But these look a lot better than what I already have. Can they be rooted, do the standard recoveries show upside-down. CWM is easier to manage that way, but TWRP is difficult.

Mediatek device main problem is regarding enough space and fast access. I hope Redmi note 4 wiil work much better if a user can root this device & create SD partition .
