According to a report by a Russian website, a representative of retailer Media Markt has tipped that the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 will be priced at RUB 34,990 (approximately Rs. 56,700) for the Russian market, and will go on sale in late September or early October.

Earlier, the anticipated Galaxy Note 4 was listed in two variants - SM-N910S and SM-N910C, depending on region - by an Indonesian online retailer. The listing had also included mention of a Quad-HD (1440x2560 pixels) Super AMOLED display offering a pixel density of 515ppi on a 5.7-inch screen; 4GB of RAM; 16GB/ 32GB/ 64GB inbuilt storage variants; expandable storage up to 128GB (via microSD card); Micro-SIM support; 16-megapixel camera with OIS, and Android 4.4.3 KitKat.

The Indonesian Galaxy Note 4 retail listing mentions a 2.5GHz quad-core processor (possibly the Qualcomm Snapdragon 805) variant and an octa-core (Exynos with 1.3GHz quad-core Cortex-A53 and four quad-core Cortex-A57 cores) variant. The website had listed the smartphone for IDR 9,499,000, which translates to roughly Rs. 50,000.
