It was not yet too long since Samsung Mobile introduced its phablet to the market. Despite all the tremor of hesitations on Samsung Galaxy Note’s upshot in the global market, Samsung has indeed snuffed out all of them when Galaxy Note has greatly succeeded. In fact, during the IFA show last August 2012, Samsung Galaxy Note 2 received a warmed welcome when introduced. Although Galaxy Note 2 has not overcome the performance of  its sibling Samsung Galaxy S3 in terms of sales, yet it hasn’t performed too badly either. Thus, the demand for phablet continuously increases. That’s the reason why a month after Galaxy Note 2′s release, full concern is now shifting  to its speculated successor, the Samsung Galaxy Note 3.

According to Samsung Mobile, the said Galaxy Note 3 will come in 5.99-inch full-HD Super AMOLED display having the same diamond pixel structure with that of the current Galaxy S4, 1920 x 1080 resolution, 441 ppi.

Apple’s fourth generation iPad is officially named as Apple iPad with Retina Display. This new genre of iPad is not really a far different from Apple’s previous tablet range, in fact it looks relatively look-alike.

Aside from the additional weight on the device, iPhone 4 is now sporting a Retina display on its 9.7 inches screen with a resolution of 1536 x 2048 at 264 ppi. Other than that, iPhone 4 have the same Multi‑Touch display with IPS technology, fingerprint-resistant and an oleophobic scratch-proof coating on its display.
