Metal-clad Samsung Galaxy Note 5, S6 Edge with Quad HD Display; Specification, Availability DetailsSamsung Mobile Press

When Samsung launched S6 Edge+ in India last month, it restrained from revealing details regarding Galaxy Note 5's release. The company apparently led many to believe that the flagship phablet will not be released in India.

Now, a new report has emerged that Samsung is planning to launch Galaxy Note 5 next week. Samsung community blog SamMobile has confirmed that the South Korean company will host a launch event in New Delhi on 7 September to reveal the price and availability details of Galaxy Note 5.

Galaxy Note 5 flaunts a 5.7-inch super AMOLED QHD (2560x1440p) display and houses the company's proprietary Exynos 7420 SoC (System on Chip) backed by Android 5.1.1 Lollipop, 4GB RAM and 32GB/64GB inbuilt storage options and a 3,000 mAh battery.
