Samsung Galaxy Note III is going to be announced during September and there are infinite numbers of rumors surfacing each and every day for the next Samsung phablet. The latest rumor is that some of the Samsung Galaxy Note III devices will feature LCD screens instead of AMOLED screen.
Samsung always like to put AMOLED screen on its flagship smartphones, but because of supply to demand issue Samsung may opt of LCD screens on around 10% of its Galaxy Note III. The LCD screen based Noe III will be sold on certain markets only. The LCD panels will come from a Japanese company, and Sharp seems to be it – which would make sense, since Samsung recently invested in Sharp.
Samsung Galaxy Note III is rumored to feature a Sanpdragon 800 powered chipset and will have a screen size of 5.7 inch. It should be announced at the beginning of September at IFA in Berlin, and could be in stores before the end of that month.

Samsung Galaxy S Google Play edition was released now and there are some hard fact coming out with that. One of the biggest challenge will be, who will provide the future updates of the device. And also will Galaxy S4 Google play edition get the latest and greatest Android updates first just like Google Nexus devices. Neither Samsung or Google addressed the problem directly. But what it seems like Samsung is the one who will have to provide future updates for the Galaxy S4 play edition.
Anandtech in their review found out that the Android part is from Google but still the Kernel is from Samsung. So there is no doubt that Samsung has to provide updates. That means Galaxy S4 Google play edition will not get the latest Android as fast as the Nexus devices. But it will definitely get much earlier than th regular Samsung Galaxy S4 with TouchWiz.
