Samsung Galaxy Note 5 and S6 Edge Plus Release Date Coming Soon, Rumored 5.7-Inch Screen

Samsung is expected to unveil the next-generation lineup of its popular Galaxy devices on IFA 2015 this September. Although it is still unconfirmed, several news outlets recently said that the South Korean-tech giant might reveal the smartphones earlier than what is expected.

A report from GSM Arena quoted the Wall Street Journal claiming that the purported Galaxy Note 5 might launch in mid-August. The reason behind the move is to give Samsung more time to build up the hype and ramp up sales of the handset.

SamMobile.com, meanwhile, shared what appears to be the rumored specs of the Galaxy Note 5 and the S6 Edge Plus.

According to the publication, both smartphones will feature 5.7-inch (which is 5.67-inch dimension to be exact) Super AMOLED displays with a resolution of 2560 x 1440 pixels.

Both devices are expected to hit the market with four color options; black, gold, silver, and white.

The Galaxy Note 5 goes by the codename of "Project Noble" by insiders. It will have a flat display and will house an Exynos 7422 processor. The SoC, as stated by the site, will see the integration of a 64-bit octa core CPU, GPU, RAM, storage, as well as the homegrown Shannon LTE modem, packed into one.

On the other hand, Galaxy S6 Edge Plus (codenamed "Project Zen") will come with a dual-edge curved display. Underneath is a hexa-core Snapdragon 808 processor, 32GB of internal storage, a 16MP primary camera with OIS which supports 4K video recording, a 5MP front snapper, and a 3,000 mAh battery.

Both devices are expected to run Android 5.1.1 Lollipop OS out-of-the-box. Earlier rumors, meanwhile, said that the phablets might come with glass back panels. If this is the case, then the Galaxy Note 5 and Galaxy S6 Edge Plus won't have a removable battery or a microSD card slot.
