We had shared the rumors of the upcoming launch of Galaxy Note 3 Neo device when Galaxy Grand Neo went official. While we were expecting a single device, comes out that Samsung decided to give us a double surprise by launching two devices – namely the Galaxy Note 3 Neo and Note 3 Neo LTE+. Both these devices have been made official by Samsung Poland.
As the name of these handsets tells us, the only major difference between these two is that the Note 3 Neo LTE+ supports LTE+ (LTE Cat 4) as a connectivity option while the Note 3 Neo supports only 3G networks. The other (minor) difference is that of the processors that power these devices. Note 3 Neo LTE+ is powered by the long rumored Exynos Hexa-core processor, where the two A15 cores (more powerful) are clocked at 1.7 GHz while the four A7 cores (battery friendly) are clocked at 1.3 GHz.The Note 3 Neo, on the other hand, has a 1.6 GHz Quad core processor.
While the performance of both these phones should almost be the same, Exynos Hexa-core processors in Note 3 Neo LTE+ should theoretically give better battery life than the processor present in Note 3 Neo. The battery advantage the Note 3 Neo LTE+ holds in the processor section might fizzle out considering that operating the phone on LTE+ networks would be a major battery drainer. So, it is too early to say which of these phones will give a battery backup.
Both Note 3 LTE+ and Note 3 Neo borrow their design from Galaxy Note 3, thus retaining the Faux Leather back and the iconic S Pen stylus. Let’s jump to the specs section of the Note 3 Neo LTE+. (I’m skipping the specs of Note 3 Neo as I’ve already told you the differences and having studied DBMS in my previous semester, I hate redundancy :P)
