Samsung hasn't budged much on leaking information on its new Galaxy Note II not-quite-a-phone-not-quite-a-tablet, or "phablet" as some are affectionately calling it. However, it now seems confirmed that the Galaxy Note II will be available on all four major U.S. mobile carriers.

According to BriefMobile, which got a purported screenshot of what it says is a Verizon version of the phone, the smartphone-tablet hybrid will be available on AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile, U.S. Cellular and Sprint. All models are said to be identical to the international version, which is equipped with a 1.6GHz quad-core Exynos processor, 4G LTE and a tremendous 5.5-inch Super AMOLED HD display. This marks the first time Verizon has carried a Galaxy Note.

Samsung's device will reportedly be named the SCH-I605, according to BriefMobile. Très chic. Like Samsung's global version just announced at IFA, the "phablet" will run Android 4.1 Jelly Bean too. The real shocker here though is that a source close to BriefMobile claims the Galaxy Note II will not push aside its quad-core CPU in favor of a more LTE-friendly chip like Qualcomm's Snapdragon S4. Up until now this has been the case for high-octane Android phones outfitted with LTE such as the HTC Evo 4G LTE and Samsung's own Galaxy S III.

This could perhaps represent a turning point in handset design. With the device colaescing qualities of books, smartphones, and tablets all into one device, it's already clearly a very unique product. ushering in a new era of having it all: your 4G, your quad-core, and even Jelly Bean. If so, this holiday season could be quite an eventful one for Android users.

Apparently, the Samsung Galaxy Note II is slightly more powerful than last quarter's Samsung Galaxy S III when it comes to specs. The smartphone come tablet, or 'phablet' is available to pre-order with a release date of mid-October.

Unlocked and with the quad-core processor and 2X RAM, The Galaxy Note II is expected to sport the tag price of $750 to $800, whilst the Samsung Galaxy S III′s SRP will slide from $650 to $580 (for the 16GB model) effective this week.
