Unpacked Event 4th Sept

[MISS DIVA]

Sammy have announced an Unpacked Event for 4th Sept. I love the clue

 

[ceva321]

Finally!!!! I'm so excited!!! It's like an early Christmas

Not trying to make a big deal but there's 3 different boxes. Could it mean 3 versions? Three colors? We'll find out.

I'm hoping those 3 different boxes mean 3 different sizes....... Really want the 6" one.

I would love a special edition in red

I would love a special edition in red

Yeah red would be cool. For me, give me black or gun metal grey any day.

 

[damewolf13]

I put all of my phones in cases, so color really doesn't matter to me too much, but some different colors from the norm would be nice.
Maybe a pastel yellow or pastel mint green, in addition to the reg black and white.

This would be cool w/me:

Since the Unpacked event is rumored to be having Samsung announce their smartwatch in conjunction with the Note 3, figured I'd post this rendering that was mentioned on the sammobile website:

[Concept] Here’s what the Samsung ‘Gear’ smartwatch could look like | SamMobile

There's the flexible screen. Out of all the smart watches I've seen, this is the most unique looking one yet...and actually has me very intrigued. Granted, I'm not big on wearing a watch, but should the Samsung smartwatch look similar, I'd consider buying.

The Note 3 is supposed to come out in 3 different colors: Black, White, and Pink from what I've heard. I don't have the link, but a recent youtube video I watched explained that the pink version wouldn't be out until a few months after the phone is released meaning only the black and white versions would be available at first.

I don't think there will be pink Note - blue,red, brown perhaps

I bet Pink will be exclusive to Korea, just like the Pink Note II was, but we'll have to wait and see.

No blue mentioned, as of yet.

Online and waiting for the show to start

Looks like it is bound in leather!

 

[ceva321]

And metallic back covers too


It looks so nice. I can't to get my paws on one

 

[drexappeal]

Anybody write down the dimensions? It went by too quickly, but they said it's the same width as the Note 2...so that's already a plus for me. But I want to know how much taller it is. The width and thickness were the #1 physical dimensions that I was most concerned with, but I'd like to see the overall comparisons/dimensions.

 

[JunBringer]

Ooooo very appealing. Makes me miss my S-Pen since I moved over to the Z Ultra. Have they said if we're still stuck with a 16GB version?

btw happy to see multi-band LTE. Very smart.

"ultra high quality audio" nice.

 

[ceva321]

And some models will record 4K video! !!

 

[drexappeal]

Okay, so US is "October."

 

[JunBringer]

With the multi-band LTE lots of folks could just get the international version, even moreso than before.

 

[ovrrdrive]

Now it looks like I have to buy the gear too. That's pretty sweet. Even if I don't use all of the features I like the idea that they are tied together like that. Checking email and texts in meetings will be even easier now.

I'm sold.

Bigger but lighter
The Note 3 sports a 5.7-inch, full high-definition screen, a slight boost from the Note 2's 5.5-inch display. But despite the bigger screen, the Note 3 is thinner and lighter, measuring 8.3mm and weighing just 168g. It's easy to hold in one hand -- in terms of weight, anyway; you can't work the screen with one hand unless you're the hitchhiker with the massive thumbs from that Uma Thurman film.

Thanks. They mentioned the dimensions early on in the event and I was too slow to write them down, prior to the visual moving on.

I know it's the same width, from what they mentioned in the event. I just want to see the height comparison. I got a quick glance of someone doing a size comparison at the end of the video, but couldn't tell the difference...so it seems to be very, very close in height.

I can operate my Note 2 with 1 hand. As long as the Note 3 isn't too much taller than the Note 2, I should be able to do the same with the Note 3. The physical dimensions were my first concern. 2nd concern is if Sprint offers the 64gb version. While I'd be happy with 32gb, not sure it'd be enough for me to upgrade this year.
