Apparently Samsung could’t keep its excitement over the Galaxy Note 10.1 contained and felt the need to announce a global launch ahead of their August 15th event. It’s official, and just like the Samsung event invitation, they’re now referring to the Note 10.1 as the “new way.”
A Samsung spokesman has already confirmed the Galaxy Note 2 (not an official name) unveiling on August 29th, but what about Samsung’s August 15th event in NYC? Well, there’s only a couple possibilities, but judging by the recent shipment that hit Negri Electronics, and the image on Samsung’s event invitation, I’d say it’s safe to say Samsung will be announcing the Galaxy Note 10.1.
When AT&T dropped the price of the HTC One X to $99, I didn’t think it could get much better. I guess I was wrong. It’s only been a few days and we’re already seeing two retailers outdo AT&T’s amazing price. Both Amazon Wireless and Costco are now offering the HTC One X for an incredible $79.99 to both new customers and current customers with an upgrade.
Yesterday, U.S. electronics retailer, Negri Electronics, tweeted a picture of a freshly unboxed Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 with the message “Ships 8/3 #BeforeFirst.” The message wasn’t very specific and sent confused Android fans clamoring about looking for answers. A venture over to the Negri site reveals they, in fact, have the yet to be officially announced Galaxy Note 10.1 up for pre-order. Unlike their tweet, the site makes no mention of the August 3rd shipping date.
A Samsung spokesman has confirmed to Reuters that the next Galaxy Note, will in fact, be unveiled at their Unpacked event later this month. The event, which will take place in Berlin on August 29th, will set the tone for this year’s IFA and will coincidentally happen a couple weeks prior to the rumored iPhone 5 debut.
