Samsung planning two Galaxy Note 4 variants, Google Glass competitor for IFA

Samsung is reportedly planning to launch theGalaxy Note 4 in two variants; a standard flat-screened model and a high-end version with a curved display. Both phones are expected to arrive at IFA in September, alongside a competitor to Google's Glass wearable.According to a report from The Korea Times, the curved Galaxy Note 4 would closely resemble the Galaxy Round curved smartphone released in Korea last year, with its curve running along the length of the device rather than through the horizontal axis like theLG G Flex. It would be unlikely to see a global release, with a "senior executive at one of Samsung's top local suppliers" saying it would instead be a niche device for smaller markets. The standard, flat Galaxy Note 4 should see a wider launch, however.Both variants are expected to arrive with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 processor, a 5.7in QHD 2,560x1,440 resolution AMOLED display and 16-megapixel ISOCELL camera with optical image stabilisation - putting them on par with the rumouredGalaxy F handset.Little else is known about the proposed wearable, apart from the rumoured "Gear Glass" codename. Samsung refused to comment on either rumour, but with IFA fast approaching we only have a few months to wait to see what the company has in store.
