Samsung Electronics said it had launched a super-size version of its Galaxy Note smartphone, the latest salvo in its battle with Apple for the multi-billion-dollar handheld market.
The Galaxy Note 10.1, which went on sale in Germany and the United Arab Emirates, is almost twice as wide as its predecessor and is almost the size of a tablet.
The firm said the new Note would be officially released in the US on August 15 and sometime next week in Britain and South Korea.
The release comes as Samsung tries to make inroads in the tablet computer market, which is dominated by Apple`s iPad, while the two electronics giants are also engaged in a bitter court battle over patent infringements.
