Samsung launched the Note 3 Neo at the Samsung Forum in Bali on Tuesday.
Priced at Rs 40,900, the Neo is a cheaper version of the Note 3, which retails at around Rs 45,000.
Launching the phone, Vineet Taneja, Country Head, Mobile & IT, said the phone will have Club Samsung that features a “vast array of Indian entertainment content” with access to over 5,000 movies, 4 lakh songs and over 90 live TV channels.”
“Because it is designed for India, it also comes with a user interface of nine Indian languages”, Vineet Taneja said.
The Neo comes with all the software features in Note 3, such as the advanced Air Command features such as Action Memo, Scrap Booker, Screen Write, S Finder and Pen Window.
Specifications
The Neo comes with a 5.5 inch HD Super AMOLED screen, powered by a hexa core (A15 Dual 1.7GHz and A7 Quad 1.3 GHz) processor. The phone’s dimensions are 148.4mm x 77.4 x 8.6 mm and weighs 163 gm.
The Neo has a leather-finish back, and comes in three colours - black, white, and the all-new mint green.
It has an 8 MP back camera and a 2 MP front camera that can record full HD at 30 fps. It has an internal memory of 16 GB with an additional micro SD slot (up to 64 GB) and 2 GB RAM.

Galaxy NotePRO launched
Taneja also launched the Galaxy NotePRO with a 12.2 inch WQXGA screen and having 2560x1600 resolution. It has been priced at Rs 64,900.
