Now available, the Samsung GALAXY Note LTE
The
Samsung GALAXY Note LTE is now available at AT&T and Best Buy. The price tag for the device reads $299.99 with a signed 2-year pact. The "phablet" has a large 5.3 inch Super AMOLED display with resolution of 800 x 1280. Pixel density works out to 285ppi. Powered by a dual-core 1.5GHz Qualcomm MSM8660 processor, the Samsung GALAXY Note LTE also has 1GB of RAM aboard. An 8MP camera on back captures video at 1080p (30fps), while you can video chat and snap self-portraits with the 2MP front-facing camera.
If you are unsure whether
you can handle such a large phone, you can check out
our review of the unit. It seems that the "phablet" category led by the Samsung GALAXY Note LTE will soon be expanding with LG's announcement today,
introducing the LG Optimus Vu with its 5 inch screen and stylus. And if you plan on driving over to AT&T or Best Buy to pick up the model, it might be best to call ahead as some stores won't have its inventory of the GALAXY Note LTE until Monday.
