LG is also expected to introduce a larger phablet-like device sometime this year that is LTE-A with the Optimus G2. This handset will come with a 5.5-inch display and launches this August. Apple might release an LTE-A device with its next-generation iPhone that is expected to debut sometime this fall.
The handset could launch in 4 different versions, according to another report from Korean media outlet ETNews.
The company will release a top-of-the-line limited version built with high quality materials that will also come with a 13-megapixel camera and one of Samsung's unbreakable AMOLED displays.
The report also states that Samsung will launch a second variant with a regular AMOLED display, a third with an LCD display, and a final version with an 8-megapixel camera over the 13-megapixel point and shooter.
Previous Galaxy Note 3 rumors pointed to two different versions of the device launching including one with an AMOLED display and the other with LCD.
Samsung normally uses AMOLED displays on its Note line, but now the company is considering using LCD for part of its production of the phablet, according to the Korean publication Daum. The reason behind the shift is that AMOLED displays no longer offer Samsung a branding benefit.
The company has been producing more devices with AMOLED displays in recent months and Samsung's top priority for the screens at this time is the Galaxy S4.
