The original Galaxy Note debuted at IFA in 2011 so this information could be correct. No information as to the device's specifications was provided, though.

Samsung is rumored to be having a pilot testing this week for the Galaxy Note 3, which will be attended by AT&T executives.

A prototype model of the smartphone-tablet hybrid will be demonstrated in front of a select panel that will include the Chief Marketing Officer for the major U.S. carrier, KoreaTimes reported. Both companies will also work on creating new marketing strategies for the Note 3 during this testing.

The publication also stated that the device will feature a 5.9-inch screen. Older rumors point to it coming with an LCD display.

Samsung has used AMOLED touch screens for the previous two Note models and now appears to be making a switch for the new version.

The company is currently unsure of what type of display to use for the device, and it is strongly considering giving it a high-quality LCD display from Sharp, SamMobile reported.

The S-Pen should be able to function well on an LCD panel, according to YouMobile.org, who also stated that LCD technology has improved greatly over the past few years. The only issue with an LCD panel would be its effect on the range of colors that will be available on the phablet.
