Samsung abandoned Optical image Stabilization(OIS) in Galaxy Note III

According to South Korean Media Sources Samsung has abandoned Optical Image Stabilization features on their upcoming flagship Note III due to problems in Supply Chain

OIS is almost common feature in high end smartphones like G2,HTC One and Xperia Smartphones.So lack of this feature may affects sales of Note III.

The sources also said company has developed 16Mpx camera which could be seen in March,possibly Galaxy S5 and OIS feature could be seen in this device

Samsung Galaxy Note III with Flexible OLED in the works?

Few Days ago,there was a news from korean sources that Samsung is parallelly developing two variants of Samsung Galaxy Note III one with Full HD Amoled Display and other with IPS LCD Screen.Now another news came out from Korean sources that there is third variant of Galaxy Note III which will comes with Flexible OLED display.

The idea to apply Flexible OLED displays on upcoming phablet came after the declining sales of Samsung galaxy S4 and also to showcase the world Samsung will still innovate such product and it could become a first smartphone maker to develop flexible OLED Display
The production of flexible OLED display will start in August and is expected to be launched in September.

If the rumor about Flexible OLED display is true then it would be a great step as companies like Sony already announced Sony Xperia Z Ultra and HTC Rumored HTC One Max will also launch this year

Samsung Galaxy Note III may comes with LCD instead of Super Amoled Display

Korean Media have reported that in some models of Galaxy Note III we may see LCD instead of Super Amoled.

The main reason for LCD is that the production of Super Amoled Display has reached its critical stage,where demand is more than Supply and if they use other plants to increase production,it will effect the production of panels for TV.

So due to less production,Samsung will think of alternatives and to use LCD for their upcoming phablet and it is expected that only 10% of Galaxy Note III may comes with LCD

LCD panels is likely to be sourced from Sharp in which Samsung Electronics has little stake 

Samsung Galaxy Note III may comes with Snapdragon 800 chipset which supports LTE advanced and is expected to be released at IFA2013 held in Berlin
