14 DAY TRIAL // Samsung has already introduced the Galaxy Note 3 in India and has confirmed that the phablet will go on sale in the country beginning September 25.
It looks like Infibeam is one of the first authorized resellers that will bring the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 in India. Customers can now pre-order the smartphone for no less than Rs 49,900 ($790/€590) off contract.
However, the retailer mentions that Samsung Galaxy Note 3 will be available for purchase starting September 27 and that it will ship the smartphone in 2-3 days.
This means that customers who pre-purchase the phablet may get it in early October if Infibeam does not ship pre-orders earlier than September 27.
Keep in mind that Infibeam is only selling the 32GB version of Samsung Galaxy Note 3, but a 64GB might be released in India later this year. It is also worth mentioning that customers can only pre-order the black color variant.
The good news is that Samsung Galaxy Note 3 comes with Android 4.3 Jelly Bean operating system out of the box, which is the latest version of Google’s platform until Android 4.4 KitKat gets launched next month.
It packs an improved S Pen, which provides access to enhanced features and services. The Indian Galaxy Note 3 does not support LTE technology, which means it won’t pack Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 800 chipset.
Instead, it will come equipped with Samsung’s Exynos 5420 chipset that accommodates two quad-core processors clocked at 1.9 GHz and 1.3 GHz, respectively. In addition, the smartphone packs a Mali T600 graphics processing unit, as well as 3GB of RAM.
The huge 5.7-inch Super AMOLED capacitive touchscreen display included supports full HD (1080p) resolution and 386 ppi (pixel density).
There’s also a 13-megapixel rear-facing camera with autofocus, LED flash and full HD (1080p) video recording, and a 2-megapixel front-facing camera for video calls.
