This is the image being used by Samsung for the upcoming launch in about 2 hours (you can catch the live stream http://www.samsung.com/my/galaxy/unpacked/) in Alice Tully Hall Lincoln Centre New York, the event is set to take place at two different locations including London. Again shroud of mystery is accompanied with the link send to PC.com with the words Whats Next posed over the image above and Evolution of the Galaxy as the main title. The design shows edged lines on both sides it could it be in reference to a the rumoured Galaxy Edge Plus with larger screen and the Note 5 with edged sides.

Samsung in the past has announced the release of the Note 1 to the 4 at the consumer electronics trade show IFA, which will takes place in September 4-9 Berlin, this event today is something of a surprise from the Korean giant. Could be to grab a lead time in the market that is seeing congestion with many android mobile device brands entering and Apples new iPhone set to launched soon or could be because of a release of two devices.

Rumours has been rife on the Galaxy Note 5 with another member in the form of Galaxy S6 Edge + unveiling, if its the case we will probably see a lot of similarity with the S6 in terms of specifications and features except for the obvious size being much larger at 5.7 inches. A larger S6 Edge will bode well for users, and if it is coupled with a stylus the pair could be a perfect set for users who have been admiring the curved screen design.

Team PC really liked the Edge when it was with us for a month, lets just hope this time Samsung doesn’t misjudge the feedback’s. As for the Note series, it has been the surprise hero for Samsung for the large screen appeal the phone has generated but with iPhone 6 Plus taking a bite of the same space, Samsungs honeymoon is over and needs to produce a radical game changer for the Note 5 if it wants to stay ahead. And these days Cupertino is more profit oriented.
