Samsung Galaxy Note 4 S-LTE to launch in South Korea later this month; Exynos 5433 is under the hood

Late last month, we told you about the new variant of the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 introduced by Samsung, for the South Korean market only. The phablet, known as the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 S-LTE (SM-N916), was originally expected to come with the Snapdragon 810 chip, but the latest word has the device powered by the Exynos 5433. So the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 S-LTE will not be the first phone or tablet to be powered by the Snapdragon 810 SoC after all.

The Samsung Galaxy Note 4 S-LTE will support Cat. 6 LTE, which will allow for downlink speeds as fast as 300Mbps. The phone will handle the 10MHz +10MHz +20MHz tri-band carrier aggregation that SK Telecom's LTE-A network will feature, starting in the middle of this month. Next year, when Cat. 9 LTE becomes available, the device will be able to handle the top speeds of 450Mbps that will be possible.

Besides SK Telecom, the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 S-LTE will also be available for South Korean carrier Olleh. Pricing is unknown for the moment.

Thanks for the tip!
