Samsung eyes Galaxy Note 10 launch on Aug. 7 in New York

Samsung will show off its Galaxy Note 10 during a flashy Unpacked event on August 7 at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, CNET reports, citing sources familiar with the company's plans.

The venue is the same place the South Korean technology giant launched the Note 9 last year.  

Since the launch isn't for two months, the company could change its plans. Samsung declined to comment. 

The Note line doesn't sell as well as Samsung's Galaxy S devices, but the big screen phablet has a fervent fan base. Introduced in 2011, the first Note kicked off the trend toward bigger displays on phones, a trend that become the norm across the mobile industry. The size of the first Note's screen -- 5.3 inches -- now seems almost small compared to giants, such as the Note 9's 6.4-inch display and the iPhone XS Max's 6.5 inch-screen.
