T-Mobile will begin carrying the 5.3-inch Galaxy Note T-Mobile will begin carrying the 5.3-inch Galaxy Note smartphone in the coming weeks. T-Mobile July 17, 2012, 12:26 p.m. T-Mobile is set to begin carrying the Galaxy Note -- the 5.3-inch half-smartphone, half-tablet Samsung device -- in the coming weeks. The carrier announced it had secured the Samsung phone late Monday night, but didn't give details on a hard release date or the Note's price. The phone has been available in the U.S. since February exclusively through AT&T, which sells a 16 gigabyte version of the phone for $249.99. The Note has a 5.3-inch HD Super AMOLED screen and runs on a Snapdragon S3 1.5 Ghz dual core processor. The Note has an 8-megapixel back-facing camera and also comes with a stylus, which is called the S Pen. T-Mobile also said its Galaxy Note will come with 16 GB of storage and will run on Android Ice Cream Sandwich. However, the company did not make any promises as to whether its Note will be upgraded to Jelly Bean. News of the T-Mobile Note comes a week after the carrier announced it would also be launching two other phones: the new myTouch and the myTouch Q, which has a physical keyboard. The two phones launch Aug. 8, run on Android Gingerbread and are available for $49.99 with a two-year contract after a mail-in-rebate.
