Samsung usually unveils new Galaxy Note series handsets at the annual IFA Berlin event which is often held in September every year. However, the Galaxy Note 5 was not announced at the 2015 IFA Berlin but in August of last year instead. Because of this, there are speculations that Samsung will unveil the Galaxy Note 6 in July or August of this year which - earlier than the IFA 2016. This could be a good strategy for Samsung who achieved good sales with the Galaxy S7 after releasing it ahead of the iPhone 7 and other rival smartphones.
