Samsung Galaxy Note 5 Release Date Approaching

Samsung still isn’t talking about the launch of the Galaxy Note 5, but thanks to a series of FCC filings, we know that the Galaxy Note 5 release date is approaching.

For several months, consumers in the United States have been bombarded with Samsung Galaxy Note 5 rumors. As the weeks went by, these Galaxy Note 5 rumors started to get stronger and we now have a number of solid clues ahead of Samsung’s announcement.

While most of these details about Galaxy Note 5 specs and Galaxy Note 5 release date come from insider publications, we’ve also seen some official Galaxy Note 5 details surfaced. And once again, we see that these official institutions have already provided the new Galaxy Note 5 release details.

Earlier this month, AT&T Galaxy Note 5 and Verizon Galaxy Note 5 versions were approved thanks to FCC filings. While AT&T’s Galaxy Note 5 is the SM-N920A, the Verizon Galaxy Note 5’s model number has been confirmed as follows: SM-N920V. These model numbers follow Samsung’s traditional naming patterns.

These FCC files confirm the AT&T and Verizon versions of the Galaxy Note 5, but also point to an imminent Galaxy Note 5 release date in the United States. Typically, FCC filings come shortly after a device is announced on stage. In the case of the Galaxy Note 5, they arrived ahead of launch.

Today, we have new evidence to support this early Galaxy Note 5 release date theory. Mobile Blog has discovered Sprint Galaxy Note 5 lurking in the FCC. While the filing doesn’t mention the Galaxy Note 5 by name, the SM-N920P model number aligns with other known Galaxy Note 5 model numbers. Sprint also uses “P” to denote its devices from other carriers.

This filing doesn’t mean the Sprint Galaxy Note 5 release date will be tomorrow, but it does mean we could see the Galaxy Note arrive in the United States much earlier than Samsung’s typical September-October launch window.

The Samsung Galaxy Note 5 launch date is said to be on August 12, much earlier than the start of IFA 2015 held in Berlin, Germany. Samsung used IFA to announce its Galaxy Note for four years, but reports suggest that Samsung has decided to speed up the launch to put some space between the Galaxy Note and Apple’s rumored iPhone 6s.

Samsung has not yet sent out media invites, so this date has not been confirmed. We also don’t know how it will approach this year’s Galaxy Note launch. Typically, it uses a big stage to reveal new features and a release date. It’s unclear whether it will do this with the Galaxy Note 5 this year.

Samsung’s Galaxy Note 5 release date is also expected to come shortly after the company announced the phone, which is a bit different from previous years.

Galaxy Note 5 release date rumors point to August 21 as the device’s release date in key regions such as the United States and Asia. Galaxy Note 5 rumors suggest that Europe and perhaps Russia will see a delayed Galaxy Note 5 release date. It’s unclear how long this delay will last.

These FCC filings support rumors of an early Galaxy Note 5 release date, and that should please those in love with the device’s rumored specs.

The Samsung Galaxy Note 5’s specifications have not been confirmed, but we’ve seen a number of reports outlining key details about its display, processor, and more.

Samsung’s next-generation Galaxy Note features a design compatible with the Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge, a 5.7-inch Quad HD display, a new S Pen, a 4,000mAh battery, 4GB of RAM and a new Exynos Waiting. 7 processors, four color options and much more.

It’s still unclear how much this will cost consumers in the United States or abroad, but it looks like we won’t have to wait too long to find out.
