At the end of this Week Samsung will take to the stage at their Samsung Unpacked event at IFA 2012 on August 29 and on this platform its widely thought that Samsung will be announcing and launching the –Samsung Galaxy Note 2 smartphone/tablet.

To help with this assumption a Korean newspaper has published what it claims are the Galaxy Note 2’s final specifications.

The biggest question many have had with the Galaxy Note 2 are surrounding what operating system the handset will use and the report states that the Noe2 will come running Android 4.1 Jelly Bean straight out of the box.

In line with previous reports the newspaper also states that the already large Galaxy Note will be getting and even bigger screen than its predecessor which will come measuring in at 5.5 inches which is 0.2 inches larger than the original Samsung Galaxy Note smartphone.

Other reports states that the Smartphone will have very similar stats to the Samsung Glaxy SIII flagship handset with its 1.4GHz quad-core Exynos 4412 chip, a Samsung Super AMOLED display, an 8-megapixel camera, and a choice between 16GB or 32GB of storage.

The biggest addition to the Galaxy Note 2 that separates its form the rest of the Galaxy family is the inclusion of the Samsung S-Pen stylus which was a major feature of the original Note tablet/smartphone and will be a big feature of the new Note 2.

Many questions have been posed regarding the galaxy Note 2’s size and functionality, including is it a tablet or a Smartphone but with the inclusion of the android 4.1 Jelly Bean OS it will blur the lines even more.

We can hope to see the Galaxy Note 2 tomorrow at Samsung’s Unpacked event at the German IFA show on August 29th.
