Samsung Galaxy Note 2 with 5.5in screen launching in August?

If the 5.3in Samsung Galaxy Note feels a little dainty for your ham-like hands, then you’ll be excited to hear that the 5.5in Galaxy Note 2 is now expected to be revealed at the IFA consumer electronics trade show in August, according to MK Business News.

The Samsung Galaxy Note 2 is expected to have a quad-core processor which will hopefully be powering Android Jelly Bean, in addition to a 12MP camera.

However, the unbreakable plane display (UBP) which was also rumoured to be featured in the Note 2 will likely be missing and will be saved for a future handset – a second Galaxy Nexus, perhaps?

Either way it’s exciting stuff and promising news for shovel-handed gadgeteers who can’t get enough display space to satisfy their insatiable pixel lust.
