Samsung Galaxy Note 2 Leaked by Samsung, Looks Familiar

An image of the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 has been leaked online by none other than Samsung itself.

The picture was uploaded to the official Samsung Pakistan Facebook page earlier today, along with the caption: “Picture perfect view made even more perfect with Samsung Galaxy S3.” Confusing or what?

We’re not entirely sure what’s happened here; perhaps Samsung has used the wrong picture to match its caption. Digging even further into our Samsung memory banks, we found that this image has actually appeared before much earlier in the year. When the Galaxy SIII was but a gadget-lovers dream and fakes were popping up left, right, and centre, this exact image appeared. We dismissed it as a Photoshop job – a fake – but now it’s here again.

Previous leak...

Have we known what the Galaxy Note 2 has looked like all along? It’s doubtful. Our money is on a careless PR rep at Samsung Pakistan Googling for a picture of the S3 and somehow picking this fake out from the results by mistake.

Although the design fits the bill when you look at the rumoured changes – a larger screen but the same size device – it also still looks pretty fake. Strangely the phone seems to feature a physical camera button on the side, which is something Samsung has omitted from all Galaxy smartphones in the past, much to the dismay of many gadget lovers. Either the Galaxy Note is about to break tradition in a big way, or this is another fake.

A Samsung spokesperson recently confirmed that it would be revealing the next Galaxy Note just before the annual IFA tech event kicks off in Berlin, on August 29th – We’ll find out for sure then.
