This is the second report claiming its debut in the region

If you haven't purchased the Galaxy Note 5, although you've wanted it since it was launched back in October, chances are you can't find it in your country, or you can't afford it.

Well, at least one of these issues might be addressed by Samsung, as the South Korean company plans to finally launch its flagship smartphone in Europe as early as January 2016.

Some of you might recall that we reported back in October that at least one European carrier confirmed it would offer the Samsung Galaxy Note 5 next year.

Today, another report coming from Gadgette claims the Galaxy Note 5 will be introduced in the UK in late January 2016.

The information had been confirmed by a trusted Samsung source, the same that claimed the Galaxy Note 5 won't be launched in the UK before the South Korean company officially unveiled the phablet.

No word on price tag yet

Unfortunately, the timing chosen by Samsung is bad and confusing at the same time, since the company has at least one major launch scheduled for February where we hope to see Galaxy S7.

Also, many companies will unveil some of their most important products in early January at CES (Consumer Electronics Show) 2015, which means all eyes will be aimed at these devices rather than Samsung's Galaxy Note 5.

Samsung fans who badly wanted the Galaxy Note 5 most likely got it through other means, as many online retailers are selling the smartphone and ship it to anywhere in the world.

While the launch of Galaxy Note 5 is not a bad move, we believe it comes too late to matter that much for Samsung's revenues.

We now have information regarding the availability of Galaxy Note 5 in two countries, Romania and the UK, but we can safely assume Samsung will make it available in other European countries as well.
