Phablets
The HTC One Max has been spotted for both Sprint and AT&T in FCC files.
Verizon just became the last major carrier to launch the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 in the U.S. on October 10. The newest phablet from Samsung is looking to take over the market, so let's take a look at what competition it has in the Sony Xperia Z Ultra, which was recently made available unlocked in the U.S.
Have the HTC One Max's specs been confirmed? One of the most anticipated devices of 2013, a new leak purportedly shows the new phablet next to the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 and the Note 2, seemingly corroborating many of the HTC One Max's rumored specs, including the size of the display and more.
The Xperia Z Ultra, Sony's phablet-sized version of its flagship phone, the Xperia Z, is slated to bring its 6.4-inch screen and waterproof casing to India within the month, if reports are correct.
If Samsung lives up to the expectation, then the Galaxy Note 3 phablet will be one of the most powerful mobile devices again when it hits the market this fall.
The battle of the phablets - smartphones that are not quite phones or tablets - has just heated up. On Tuesday, June 25, Sony unveiled its 6.4-inch phablet variant of the Xperia Z, which they're calling the Xperia Z Ultra, boasting that it has the largest full HD smartphone display.
Samsung has not released any official details about its upcoming flagship phablet, the Galaxy Note 3, but that hasn't stopped rumors and reports from hitting the technosphere. The latest shows off a picture reportedly taken by a Galaxy Note 3, indicating a 13-megapixel rear-facing camera.
Samsung's latest flagship smartphone, the Galaxy S4, is still hot off the presses, having just recently released here in the United States. Samsung isn't done for the year, however, as the South Korean electronics manufacturer is slated to release a successor to the popular Galaxy Note 2. No official release date has been given the phablet, which is expected to launch in the fall, but it seems Samsung has already let the cat out of the bag with an unintentional posting on the web.
Samsung may look to introduce the next in its beloved Galaxy Note lineup sooner than expected. A new rumor has the Galaxy Note 3's release time frame pegged between July and August.
