Last year at the IFA conference in Berlin Samsung announced their Galaxy Note to the World. Currently there is a rumor that Samsung will be unveiling the next version of the popular phone/tablet hybrid, the Galaxy Note 2 this year at the IFA conference. While there is no word if this is actually true or not or whether or not the name will be the Galaxy Note 2 there is a lot of buzz about it already.

The Samsung Galaxy Note 2 is said to be the same size as far as form goes but will have a screen that is a bit larger than its previous model at 5.5-inches (original is 5.3). They supposedly will keep it the same size with a larger screen by reducing the bezel a bit. As far as hardware goes the assumption at this point is that it will come with a Exynos quad-core processor with a design more like the Galaxy S III.

The final word will come at the conference this year at the end of August. We are sure there will be much more information surface and maybe half of it to be true.
