The Galaxy Note 2 has been slated for an October release in Europe and other international markets, with the US variants coming “later in 2012”, but at least one carrier in the US may get the device much, much sooner and in October itself. A rumor suggests that the AT&T Galaxy Note 2 will be releasing on October 21st.

Screenshots from the AT&T Galaxy Note 2 were leaked before, and it could be the carrier will be the first one to start selling the Note 2. With no official announcement yet from AT&T (or any other carrier for that matter), this rumor could be completely untrue, but we’ll hope it’s not so US customers can get their hands on the Galaxy Note 2 as soon as possible.
