Samsung Galaxy Note 5 rumored release date could be August 12

Update : SamMobile reports that Galaxy Note 5 will be unveiled alongside Galaxy S6 edge+ on August 12. Both will launch in South Korea on August 21 and not August 12.

Digitimes citing sources at Taiwan-based telecom carriers reported that the Galaxy Note 5 will be unveiled on August 12 in New York and followed by August 14 release in major markets. Last week WSJ also reported that the Galaxy Note 5 will be introduced in mid-August. Analyst believe that this move is is an attempt to beat Apple's forthcoming iPhone devices which are expected to hit the market in mid-September.

The report further reveals some of the specs of Galaxy Note 5 which include 5.7-inch 2K curved touchscreen, 14nm Exynos 7422 processor and wireless quick charging support.

It comes with a choice of 32GB, 64GB and 128GB internal storage, there may also be a 256GB options, as the device has no microSD card slot.
