The phone includes a massive 5.5&#8243; Super AMOLED 16:9 aspect ratio display running at 1280 x 720p, which is probably why it also includes a ridiculously large 3100 mAh battery &#8211; pretty much tablet territory.<\/p>\n<p>The other specifications are impressive as well. There&#8217;s a quad-core Exynos processor running at 1.6 GHz (faster than the Galaxy S III), a full 2 GB of RAM and a choice of 16, 32 or 64 GB of internal storage augmented by up to 64 GB of micro SD. There&#8217;ll be an 8 megapixel camera on the back and 1.9 megapixels on the front. In terms of connectivity, we&#8217;ll be looking at 4G LTE in areas that support it (potentially the UK!) and HSPA+ elsewhere. The phone weighs 2g more than the original Note, but is .25 millimetres thinner.<\/p>\n<p>Thankfully, the Note II will launch with the very latest Jelly Bean Android 4.1 OS. There&#8217;ll also be a few more tricks for the integrated S Pen stylus, including a feature called Air View that will allow you to hover over multimedia content to preview it in a pop-up windw. You&#8217;ll also be allowed to keep notes in pop-up windows, showing an increased focus on multitasking. You can also record videos of the Note II&#8217;s screen. Finally, there&#8217;s Quick Command which will allow you to see a menu of quick commands (go figure) when you swipe up with the S Pen.<\/p>\n<p>The Note II will launch in Europe in October in two colour variations &#8211; Marble White and Titanium Gray, although the leaked image above does look rather like Pebble Blue.<\/p>\n<p>Here at Mobile Fun, we&#8217;ll have <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/samsung\/galaxy-note-2\">Samsung Galaxy Note 2 accessories<\/a> and cases ready well before that date.
