Samsung’s
current Galaxy Note II has a 5.5-inch screen and the South Korea
company may be looking to take things bigger. A fresh report from the Korea
Times quotes an unnamed Samsung executive who said the firm is working
on a phablet with a 5.9-inch screen to compete with similar devices recently
launched by Huawei and ZTE.
“Even
if these kinds of sizes ― from 5-inch to 6-inch ― are stretching the
limits of traditional pockets, well-made phablets using bezel-less technology
have been warmly received,” the Samsung employee said. “Users prefer bigger
phones and they use them more often. Samsung will be more focused on larger
phones.”
We
suspect 5.9-inch device is indeed the Galaxy Note III, even though the source
didn’t specifically say so and the size contradicts earlier reports of a 6.3-inch display.
Samsung’s large screen phones have become increasingly popular in the United
States, despite early speculation that the devices might be too big. [TechnoBuffalo]
