Galaxy Note 3 with 6.3-inch display reportedly in the works

Samsung Electronics may be looking to blur the lines between a phone and tablet even further.

The Korean electronics giant is working on a bigger, 6.3-inch display for the eventual Galaxy Note 3, according to the Korea Times.
Samsung has pioneered the category that some refer to as the "phablet" segment, or something between a smartphone and tablet. Initially mocked for the size of the device, Samsung saw decent sales of the first big-bodied Galaxy Note, and pushed for wider distribution with the successor Galaxy Note 2, which saw its display grow to 5.5 inches from 5.3.

Samsung has continually hammered the point that the Galaxy Note has been successful around the world, and has been unusually quick to tout sales numbers as it justifies the new category. Last month, it said it sold 5 million units of the Galaxy Note 2 in two months, or double the rate of the original.

The carriers like the device because it appeals to heavy users who tend to be affluent and willing to spend more on monthly smartphone plans. Samsung sees it as a complement to its flagship Galaxy S3, which has proven to be nearly as strong a draw as Apple's iPhone 5.

The Korea Times also reiterated its belief that the Galaxy S4 will be unveiled at Mobile World Congress in February. Samsung, however, held its own event last year to unveil the Galaxy S3, and many expect the company to follow the same track this year.

CNET has contacted Samsung for comment, and we'll update the story when the company responds.

Sir shadow sa tingin ko kaya prepaid ang iba para madali magpalit ng cellphone number or secondary number lang.

In my case hirap talaga ang prepaid. Medyo mahal ang internet rate (malakas kain sa load) kaya lagi ako may dalang pocket wifi so may clutch bag ako lagi na bitbit.

Sa postpaid naman minsan naooverbill ako buti nalang may parang limit na yung smart.

Bakit kailnagan magpalit ng number? I mean I also don't get yun 2 or 3 phones Ang dala, Bakit kailangan lahat ng service provider meron?

tama, but for me i have 2 phones. 1 for personal use and the other for work. buti nga ngayon meron na mga unli calls and text na line dati nung wala pa minsan umaabot 15-20k yung cellphone bill ko at swerte din ako dahil sagot naman ng company namin.:bwahaha: ngayon nasa 5-7k na lang nag papamahal lang mga international call and text.

yung iba naman, like my friend, easily contact him sa sun. 2nd phone lang nya ang globe. e medyo mahina ang signal ng sun sa ibang lugar, so ayun, para may signal pa rin sya sa globe. kumbaga emergency use din. at may mga times na bagsak ang signal ng isang network dahil inaayos

Wife ko 3 phones, one each for Globe, Smart and Sun. Sya kasi kumakausap sa mga customers. Yung ibang customers kasi gusto nila pag Sun sila, Sun din gamit mo. Nangunguripot tumawag ng may bayad.

Ako 1 phone lang, Globe. Ayaw ko marami bitbit.

Wala nga kasi pang-load yung iba.

For me napilitan na rin ako mag-2 phones (Globe and Smart plan) kasi nga ayaw tumawag sa Globe nung mga naka-sun/smart. Text lang nang text eh minsan kapag busy eh hassle na for me.

I know it's inconvenient but I have the same reason with others. One is for business and one is for personal use (family and friends). It's hard to give your own personal number for business transactions. It's for my security purpose. I can't really explain on the security but I feel safer not giving my personal number to anyone I don't know for a long time. Even my friends,well most of them, have 2 different numbers. In my point of view, I think it really depends on how you think. I'm fine bringing a clutch bag with me every time or a laptop bag with me since I carry my laptop sometimes when needed. I don't change my number often as I only changed my phone number when I signed up for a postpaid plan with a phone and when my prepaid sim card is not compatible with my new phone. If you'd ask me why not get a dual sim phone, it's harder for me but it may be easier for you.

i understand yun 2 phones 1 company issued and 1 for personal, ganun din kami but for regular joe hinde ko maintindihan kung wala naman na issue sa kanila ang company kailangan nila lahat ng magkaroon sim lahat ng provider.

This thread has taken a wrong turn somewhere. Let's go back to talking about phones instead of putting down frugal/cheap people.

Yung eload ok naman. Yung load cards lang talaga ang ayaw gumana.

There's a separate card for smart bro. 100 and 300 denomination. I dont know kung may mas mataas pang amount.

Ahh kaya pala. Puro smart buddy (yung kulay green) yung gamit ko lagi since yun ang binibigay sa akin ng pinsan ko lagi. Kapag bumili kasi siya, nagpapasabay na ako. Napansin ko na yung smart bro load cards (yung kulay red) pero hindi yun yung binibili ko dahil natutuwa ako dun sa mga pictures na kasama dun sa smart buddy load card. Next time try ko bumili niyan tapos post ko kung papasok agad.

May 500 yung load card na smart bro (as of 2011)

here's an interesting post from kimstore fb page.

After the grand success of Samsung Galaxy S3, the South Korean smartphone giant is well on its heels preparing for its next big thing. Speculated to have an "unbreakable" 5 inch flexible screen - Samsung is keeping mum about it - it will revolutionize the way we experience the smartphone display. We're also hearing about a 13MP camera topped with an unbeatable 3GB RAM, miles ahead the current generation's smartphones. It might boast not the Android 4.1 (Jellybean) but the Android 5.0 Key Lime Pie right out of the box. COOLNESS. Slated for a tentative April 2013 release, we might get the S4 in 16, 32, 64 and a whooping 128GB.
