Samsung Galaxy Note II launch event in Australia on November 14th

Don’t you just love emails that make you smile? We’ve just received an email from Samsung letting us know of something very exciting – something very exciting indeed!

It appears as though Samsung will in fact be launching the Galaxy Note II in Australia come November 14th. We’ve just been invited to the event, where we’re promised an “unforgettable night of creativity, innovation and performances [we] won’t want to miss!” Jeez, that’s exciting. We’ll be at the event covering all the details as they happen.

The event is a ‘launch event’ so we can guess that it will be launching on November 14th itself – or perhaps the 15th seeing as though this event starts at 5PM. We’ll let you know when we hear more.

Here’s the invitation in all of it’s wonderful glory. Well, minus the private details.

Start getting excited people, the Galaxy Note II’s appearance in Australia is starting to get real. From the looks of the invitation we’ll have a grey coloured version of the Note II – here’s hoping it’s 4G LTE enabled!

We’ve heard before that Optus were perhaps testing the Note II with their 4G network, but there’s been no news otherwise. Who do you think will be stocking the Note II and will you be getting one?

    According to a Samsung employee speaking off the record at the experience store in Sydney, both Optus and Telstra will have the 4G variants on their networks

    I thought people knew about these reported dates.

    Galaxy Note 2 LTE 4G on contract:

    Optus: Nov 5th
    Vodafone: Nov 19th
    Telstra: Nov 26th

      Looks like that is a rumour. With the event on the 14th, it’s unlikely for Optus to launch the phone 10 days beforehand. Though, there’s always the possibility that those dates are fact.

      • DaveQB

        Fair point. Here’s hoping!

        • http://www.androidaustralia.com.au/ Josh Berg

          Seriously hoping! Either way, we’ll be there on the scene and have all the details in two weeks from now – not long to wait now!

          • DaveQB

            It’s like the anticipation to Xmas as a child.

    About time! Wonder how many people just couldn’t wait and bought the competitions phone.
    Am wanting a 64gb version LTE right away.
