I wish these guys would stop putting their logos on the front of their phones.
Would that be the same Samsung who's current flag ship phone cannot beat Apples 1 year old iPhone 6 in sales, and is fairing worse than Apples previous handset the 5S sales wise, and is barely getting more than Apples entry level handset from 2 years ago the 5C? Yes i see their plan is going to work. I don't think it will help them at all. For UK info i like browsing this every so often. http://www.uswitch.com/mobiles/mobile_tracker/
Actually I think it's stupid not brilliant. The minute the new iPhones come out they will get all the attention. is Samsung is releasing the Note early all that tells me is the Galaxy S6/Edge hasn't been as popular as Samsung hoped.If they're trying to redirect the conversation, I really don't see it working long-term. They'll get some early buzz as people are still awaiting the next iPhone release, but once it happens, all eyes will be on Apple once again.
Because phablets are stupid?Why do you think the new iPhone 6 Plus is so far down the charts, behind Samsung phones, and neck and neck level with the Samsung Note 4.
I would of thought it would of been selling better?
If we know this now, Apple probably knew it a while ago.
Recently it was reported the iPhone 6s was going into production 'early'.
Maybe Apple are aiming for an early announcement and release too, to trump Samsung?
Can't wait to see this phone. The last 3 notes have been basically the exact same phone. Hoping for something refreshing in the design department.
I'm not an expert in marketing (I might be wrong) - But I guessed that people might also wait for Apple's move and then decide which device to buy. And while presenting this new phone I don't know if it will be fair to compare it with the iPhone 6 plus.... Most of the time this seems to be the strategy (Buy my phone because we are better that even the rumors of what apple might be doingIf they're trying to redirect the conversation, I really don't see it working long-term.

no one is disputing that...lets face the truth, Samsung created phablet category and made it popular
Samsung should design a nice logo instead of a name on a device, most of the time it's also way too big.
Get a logo which can be instantly recognised like for instance Apple, Raspberry, RIM .....

Interesting, I am not sure historically if iPhones have entered production this early before.
Then again Apple like to release the latest iOS at the same time and I can't imagine iOS 9 being ready by the end of August.
Lets get back to a WWDC release schedule HOORAAH!
Perhaps a strawberry, with some bits bitten off like the apple logo?![]()
That's when you know you're the beta company. When the other guy's regularly scheduled release dates cause you to alter yours because you can't compete otherwise.
I don't see them ditching those features. The Note is the absolute power-user phone. As far as Touch-Wiz, I really don't understand the hate. I used to work optimizing cell phone towers and all we used were Samsung Galaxy's whether it was a Verizon, Sprint or AT&T tower. Maybe I just got so used to the os. But I see nothing wrong with it. Personally I just remove all the screens with the nonsense icons and banners and have one or two home-screens with the apps I use the most. Plus, the hardware is so beefed up any lag that occurred in previous iterations is simply not there anymore.You'll get it, don't worry. Just don't expect SD Card and removable battery, which was exactly what made it stand out (apart from the screen size).
Samsung is dying because of bad software as well.
