The much awaited and anticipated ‘phablet’ from Samsung electronics, the Samsung Galaxy Note II was launched at the IFA (Internationale Funkausstellung) 2012 in the capital of Germany, Berlin on Wednesday.

The device is powered by a 1.6GHz quad core Exynos 4412 processor, a 4G LTE connectivity, 5.5 inch 1280 x 720 AMOLED display, 16, 32 or 64 GBs of storage capacity. Also, the Note 2 features an 8 MP rear camera while running of Android 4.1 aka Jelly Bean.
