Samsung is calling the event “Samsung Unpacked 2013 Episode 2.” Earlier this year, the company unveiled the Galaxy S 4 at episode 1 of the event. The two lines of devices, the Galaxy S and Galaxy Note smartphones, are two of Samsung’s most popular mobile devices.

The original Galaxy Note made its debut two years ago as one of the first devices with a 5-inch screen. The Galaxy Note was presented as a hybrid smartphone and tablet device, and after its successful launch, dozens of other companies have launched large-screened smartphones.

The Galaxy Note III is expected to have a 5.7-inch, 1080p HD screen, which would be a larger and higher-resolution display than the one on the Galaxy Note II.
