Case manufacturers are always a good source of smartphone leaks as they often jump the gun, putting up renders of new devices encased in their cases. We’re not expecting the Samsung Galaxy Note 5 to be announced till September, but we’re apparently getting our first look at the device today, courtesy of a leak from a case manufacturer (via nowhereelse.fr). Check out the image below:
Now, I know what you’re thinking – that looks exactly like a Galaxy S6, and that’s why we’re a little sceptical about this leak at this point in time. Sure, the render does feature a cutout in the case where a S-Pen would be situated, however this could easily be edited by someone skilled in Photoshop. And this is pure conjecture, but with the advent of USB Type-C, we’d be surprised if Samsung didn’t get on that bus early by putting it in its Galaxy Note 5 – this render clearly shows a microUSB port. That’s not to say that this isn’t what the Galaxy Note 5 is going to look like, but we’re not completely convinced yet – if 2014 has taught us anything, the Galaxy S and Galaxy Note line of devices do not necessarily have to have the same design cues.
What do you think about this render of the Samsung Galaxy Note 5? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
