OK I just photoshopped a note screen onto the leak screen and found the screen is 16:9.
Which is a shame. I wanted the wider screen proportion actually,
Nevermind. Can still hope for a 4.8" 1080p screen though.... that would be quite something. Though I realise it would have to be a pentile matrix display to achieve it.

Oh crap looks like I will owe you £2 via paypal. also rules out the 1920 x 1080p screen rumour as this has a previous gen gpu. and older a9 chips.
I am disappointed actually. I guess its not over till its over though. I cant see the point in them putting old gen tech in, when they are just about on the verge of having the next gen tech in place.
Ha, yea its turning into a whirlwind!! i dont believe oe one second that is the final design, that looks like the 'rectangle' generic cases that was being mentioned as a cover up, i expect either a fully ceramic unibody or a alloy/ceramic unbody..for pure damn slick ness!!
Yea there is a rumour abour the quad here at the Verge;

I kinda thought we were getting out hopes up with that one still when your getting to the stage of complaining that your only getting a quad core phone..then things can't be bad!
About the screen..yea if you read my intro i have a link to where i expained 1080p is impossible tech for anything up to a 5-6inch screen with AMOLED even Pentile matrix as the pixels don't fit in, besides games would struggle and picture quality would not really be much better even if a pentile 1080p screen was available..i still maintain a 720p 4.65inch Super AMOLED Plus screen RGB with some Gorrilla glass 2 would be amazing....for all we know this could be the debut of the YOUM flex AMOLED..that makes a copletelt bezeless display..awesome either way.
That screen, with Exynos 4412, dual channel memory LPDDR2 1066, Mali 400 mp @440 mhz (jump from 266) 1-2gb ram, encased in a ceramic unibody.....nothing to complain about really
Edit; We picked up a Samsung GT i9300 on GL benchmark a few weeks back, someone went into the source drivers and found the clock speed was cracking 440mhz..

It was obviously testing, so they have taken it down now,but the Egypt off screen was 92FPS!!...for reference HTC one X gets 64.9fps and iphone 4S 72.7fps

92/64.9*100= 42% faster than Tegra 3...not to mention dual channel memory.
92/72.7*100= 26% faster than A5 4S ...not to mention the quad core A9's and likely more ram!..
