    Rumours is what they are. More like rumblings because the N2 hasn't exactly been out long but I'd be curious to see if Samsung continue to push the screen size if and when a third comes around.

    I don't think there's much point making the screen size any bigger than it is with the note 2,otherwise it's essentially becoming a tablet

    Sorry for bumping this but I was wondering is there any more details on the Galaxy Note 3. Has it been announced? Really interested in the Note 2 but may hold off if the Note 3 is coming out

    Curious about this myself. Need a 1080p screen :) Note 2 has served me so well so far - won't be going near anything with a much smaller battery though.

    Note 3 should be announced around August and released in October based on the Note 1/2 releases. Specs untill then will only be rumors or possible leaks.

    How do you find the note 2? I'm upgrading from an iPhone 4s. I really like the idea of the screen but how particle is it?

    So its only half way through its cycle? Not sure if I'd want to wait till then.

    I have the Note 2 and its great but a 5.5'' screen in a phone is enough!!! 6.3 will be unusable!!!

    The new LG device has me intrigued.

    They'll probably do the same thing they did with the S4, keep the body the same size and increase the screen a bit.

    They could cut down on the bezel quite a bit. The new G4 has a bigger screen but the device is pretty much the same size.

    I would suggest getting the note 2 now, as the note 3 will not be out before October and you can easily sell the note 2 when the note 3 comes out and upgrade.

    The note 2 screen size is perfect and feels more like a smartphone than any other phone.

    It won't be 6.3-inch. The talk of a 6.3-inch device was actually the Galaxy Mega series which has both a 5.8 and 6.3 inch devices. I would guess around 5.8/9 for the note 3.

    Sure they said that about the original note.
    Samsung are releasing the mega which is 6'3 inch!

    Id imagine the note 3 when it is released will follow similar lines to the s4 in that the phone size will not increase but the screen size will.

    Don't you mean in the lines of the note 1 > note 2. Most people forget, but the note 2 is actually smaller than the note 1 but has a bigger display.

    I do agree that they will increase the size of the display and try to keep the size of the device the same.
