Samsung Galaxy Note 3 shows up in leaked photo again: Real or fake?

The rumor mill for the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 has been on overdrive for quite some time now and various speculated specifications and pictures of the handset have emerged online. Now another picture of the upcoming Galaxy Note 3 has leaked, courtesy TechKiddy.

The TechKiddy report says, "This time we got another alleged image of Samsung Galaxy Note III from Chinese Sources, which confirmed that Samsung has followed its same style the rounded corner unibody style. Any information about specifications is not cleared yet."

Samsung revealed the Galaxy Note 2 at the Berlin Radio Event in Aug. 2012 and the handset hit the shelves in Sept. 2012. The company also indicated that the Galaxy Note 3 will launch at the IFA event in Berlin scheduled for September this year. However, a recent report suggests that the phablet may arrive as early as July or August this year.

The Korean company launched the Galaxy S4 in April this year and the handset has sold over 10 million units just within 30 days of release. However, the company is said to be cutting down Galaxy S4's components order for July, due to poorer-than-expected sales.

The lesser-than-expected sales of Galaxy S4 may have triggered the company to release the next iteration of its flagship phablet as early as possible. However, the Galaxy S4 still remains one of the best-selling handsets in the smartphone space today.

Apple usually launches its iPhone around September. In 2012, iPhone 5 had to face stiff competition from the Galaxy Note 2 and Galaxy S3. Similarly, the next-generation iPhone will have to compete with the Galaxy Note 3 and the Galaxy S4. With Galaxy Note 3 launch planned ahead of iPhone, Samsung may want to attract more customers to the phablet that's rumored to boast a 5.99-inch display.

Galaxy Note 2 remains one of the most powerful and popular handsets around, and Samsung will try its best to design the Galaxy Note 3 to appeal to more smartphone users.

Meanwhile, do you think the leaked image is real or fake?
