The Samsung Galaxy Note 3 will feature a 5.7-inch display, 3GB of RAM and Android 4.3.

This list of specifications was revealed by a South Korean outlet known as MK News.

It stated that Samsung originally planned to use a 5.99-inch display for the device, but changed its mind after analyzing the response its new Galaxy Mega line received. That line features smartphones with display sizes of 5.8 and 6.3-inches.

MK News also listed several other specs for the Note 3 including a Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 CPU, 3GB RAM, LTE-Advanced support and Android 4.3, JellyBean. It will be the second Samsung device to be LTE-A ready following the Galaxy S4.

The Galaxy Note 3 could still feature a flexible OLED display.

Samsung is still deciding whether or not to use one on the upcoming phablet, according to a new report from Asia Economic. The company is waiting to see if its display-making unit is able to achieve adequate production yields in order to supply the masses with the device.

The publication also stated that Samsung will wait until the end of August to decide if they want to give the Note 3 a flexible display or not. However, this contradicts some of the recent rumors that point to the company unveiling the device in the beginning of September. The report also reiterates that Samsung will ship multiple variants of the Note 3 including versions with LCD, glass-based OLED and plastic-based OLED.

The upcoming Galaxy Note 3 also allegedly made an appearance on Samsung's official website last week revealing that there will be two different models and that the new Note will feature a 1920 x 1020 display. The phablet is expected to launch in about two months time.
