That's bigger than a penis. Do not want.

pssh, says you

 

[Deleted member 81567]

I just said "a penis." My penis is 12 inches long.

 

[Timedog]

They should make a phone with an OLED screen covered by Gorilla Plastic that's the size of small map, but you can fold it up so it fits in your pocket.

That actually sounds fucking awesome.

 

[Kinky John]

Looks like I'll have to hire an athletic Filipino boy to carry this thing around for me.

 

[Days like these...]

Curious as to how many people saying 'gross' are currently rocking a phone with a perfectly sized 4" screen. Different strokes people, different strokes remember that!

Soon we'll see pictures of people holding the Galaxy Note next to their penis instead of channel changers.

Damage control!

 

[EulaCapra]

Holy crap, 6.3? That's even bigger than the Wii U's gamepad screen.

 

[CrankyJay]

6.3 inch OLED?

 

[Everdred]

I would actually buy this. I would get rid of my current phone (obviously) and my Surface tablet and just have one device. In fact, I've wanted a tablet that I can make calls on for a couple years now. I'd just worry about the battery lasting through the day.

 

[Radec]

6.3 inch OLED?

SUPER AMOLED II

 

[You Are Viewtiful]

Would buy if it's the same body size as Note 2.

 

[The Faceless Master]

Why dont they just make 7 and 10 inch tablets you can make phone calls and send SMS on and get it over with.

This phablet thing is getting silly.

they already do, at least outside of the US. its mainly US carriers that get the calling features disabled in the cellular modem versions of tablets.

 

[solarus]

God help us, I had the original note and while a screen that big was nice and all it really was not practical. This seems insane.

 

[The Faceless Master]

Or go iPad Mini-like aspect ratio.

that just makes it wider and even harder to hold.

Guess the diagonal of note 2 if the screen has no bezel.

6.74 inch.

I really like this rumor.

screens are measured diagonally.

This guy disagrees

 

[andycapps]

Still not as big as most of GAF. Not impressed.

nah, i cant go back to small screens now.

 

[Sapphire Dreams]

Dear lord that's big, if it's true I'll just stick to my Note II.

 

[reKon]

lol damn it... fuck you Emily Chu

 

[Lunchbox]

it will be easier to notice in a crowd

so i can laugh at them


iphone 4S = peak of mobile design

 

[The Faceless Master]

ok, lets stop the crazy talk about it being the same size as the Note II.


the Galaxy Note II is 151.1mm x 80.5mm

a Note 3 6.3" screen @ 16:9 would be 139.4mm x 78.4mm

that's with ZERO BEZEL, ZERO OVERHANG, a perfect cut. even with a 1mm bezel on each side of the screen, its already the same width. i guess technically, you can have 'no' bottom bezel too for another 0.1mm

but for top bezel, there's the front facing camera (and speaker, ambient light sensor and notification led, but those are smaller) taking up space above and that will take some space as well.



Red: Note II bezel

Orange: 6.3" panel

 

[Al-ibn Kermit]

At what point do these devices stop being phones and start becoming tablets that just so happen to be able to make calls?

They already are.

No brah, I thought the same too until the 5 came along ..

 

[kutthoat5150]

thank god human hands grow 2 inches every year to stay one step ahead of these fucking phablets

 

[Haint]

Will 6.3" even fit in standard sized pockets? 5.7" fits nicely enough, I'm guessing 6" would, but 6.3" might be pushing the limits. As long as they hit the pocketable benchmark, I want the biggest size possible. I use my phone primarily as a data/media device, but I don't want something so big I can't even carry it around with me.

 

[Particle Physicist]

are Jnco jeans coming back in fashion?

 

[out0v0rder]

bring it on, im ready.

 

[Talon]

Right in time for baggy jeans to have a massive resurgence.

Spoiler

I love my 514s. Please stay forever.

 

[The Abominable Snowman]

The backlash against the first note and the smug "Apple has perfected phone design" posts were much more numerous for the Note I and Galaxy S2/3. I noticed it died down with every iteration. Have people begun to trust Samsung hardware designers, slowly but surely?

samsung's target market

 

[samus i am]

I'm thinking this is fake. If it does end up that size I just may stick with the 2.

 

[Emily Chu]

Emily Chu's spidey sense is tingling.

 

[joeygreco1985]

If they can do this with next to no bezel then sure, why not.

I hate big bezels. TVs these days have such tiny bezels, why not tablets?

Because you have to hold tablets in your hands

 

[Master Thespian]

I love my Note 2, but I think I'll have to bow out until they get their foldable screen into the mix. I'd much rather have a 4 inch screen phone that unfolds to become a 10 inch tablet.
