South Korean Samsung is going strong in 2012. The same year in which it manages to consolidate its leadership as a manufacturer of mobile phones in general and smartphones in particular, it has managed to surpass the barrier of ten million terminals sold in less than two months with its high-end device ”” the Samsung Galaxy S3 ””, also signing the same brand for a type of equipment that had not been seen until almost a year ago. We are talking about the Samsung Galaxy Note, a mobile whose concept falls between what we could understand by a mobile phone and the tablet with a small screen ””5.3 inches.
Precisely this terminal is current, and not only because of the sales milestone that we have just referred to. The point is that in the next few days it will be replaced by the second generation of this type of phone. Thus, as confirmed by Samsung itself in a devious tone, the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 will be presented on August 29.
That day, the firm South Korea held an event to officially present the new features that will carry to the IFA 2012, the German electronics fair which will take place between August 30 and September 5 in the city of Berlin. It is precisely in the prelude to said fair when the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 would be uncovered, as the company has shown in a video that shows some more than obvious clues about the device that many have come to call a phablet or tablet.
Like its predecessors ”” in addition to the first generation of large-format phones, the Seoul- based company has already introduced a tablet with a 10.1-inch screen registered in the same family ””, the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 will feature a stylus pointer that the firm has dubbed the S-Pen, and which will not only focus its functions for productivity and organization applications, but will also be designed to promote the most creative aspects of the user.
And with a view to underlining this idea, Samsung has chosen the German director Wim Wenders to represent the creative side of the Samsung Galaxy Note 2, perhaps making a small set of mirrors using the German author's film Heaven over Berlin, the city where would present this mobile and through which the director walks in the trailer where some aspects of the device are timidly shown.
For example, we see how in the video the new S-Pen that will be carried as standard on the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 is extracted, with which it will be possible to perform different functions, such as drawing on the 5.5-inch touch panel that is already available. takes it for granted in the imminent device. It is curious that during the past Mobile World Congress 2012, the area that the South Korean multinational reserved for itself was crowded with units of the Samsung Galaxy Note, as well as artists who used the phone as a small electronic canvas on which to draw portraits of whoever lent themselves to the caricature.

With the Samsung Galaxy Note 2, it seems that this will be one of the strong points to stand out as a differentiating note with a competition that accommodates itself in this concept ”” LG will put the LG Optimus Vu on sale in September, and the Taiwanese HTC projects at least a terminal with a large-format screen for the end of the year ””, as well as another that bets on very different lines but equally attractive to the market ”” in this sense, the shadow of the iPhone 5, which we will supposedly know on September 12, it is elongated.
