Samsung Galaxy Note 5 will reportedly launch in Europe early next year

It was a strange turn of events back in August when Samsung first announced the impending release of the Samsung Galaxy Note 5 for US and other regions. While the S6 Edge+ was headed to the 4 corners of the globe, they oddly left out any word on a European release for the Note 5. Not long after that, the official word was that Samsung didn’t have any plans to launch the Note 5 in Europe, at least not in 2015. While that always meant 2016 was still a possibility, we didn’t want to get our hopes up.

In a new report from Gadgette, it seems the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+ will soon be joined by its S Pen toting brother early next year. That’s when the Galaxy Note 5 is expected to launch in the UK as early as January. Of course, exact pricing and availability remains to be seen, but if you’ve been holding out on picking up the Edge+ in hopes of Samsung coming to their sense and giving you the Note 5 — you may not have to wait much longer.
