The publication did state that Apple plans to launch two iPhone models in the third quarter of 2013 that include a revised version of the iPhone 5 and a low-cost iPhone model. The cheaper model will be comparable to the iPhone 4S with a lower specification display and processor.

The Galaxy Note 3 is expected feature some impressive specs, including a camera that has optical image stabilization technology.

This feature will help improve pictures and videos that are taken with the phone's main camera, according to a report from etNews.

Optical Image Stabilization comes with cameras now available on the market. The technology reduces blurs found in an image when the photographer moves too much during a shoot. It does the same with videos.

The device was also recently spotted on an AnTuTu Benchmark chart and based on the model number, which is GT-N7200. It is believed to be the sequel to the Galaxy Note 2, which has a model number is GT-N7100.

The Galaxy Note 3 actually scored lower than the Galaxy S4 in this Benchmark. The Galaxy Note line normally features overclocked chipsets in comparison to the Galaxy S line. The finished Galaxy Note 3 should be clocked about 1.6GHz in terms of processing power.

A previous report points to the new phablet is coming with an 8-core Mali 450 GPU, which will work well for graphic-intensive activities such as mobile gaming. The device will also pack Samsung's Exynos 5 Octa processor, making it even more powerful. Other rumored specs include 3GB RAM, a 6-inch full HD display, and a 13-megapixel camera.
