Yesterday we heard that it was confirmed that the Galaxy Note III was confirmed to have a display of 5.7-inches, but the rumors won’t stop as the the speculation is that 5.7-inches might be just one of three offerings from Samsung. A document in the wild suggests that there will be 5.5-inch, 5.7-inch, and 5.99-inch versions. A few months ago, it was first rumored that it would be 5.99-inches, but then 5.7-inches surfaced. Yesterday, we reported that it was originally going to be 5.99-inches, but they scrapped that idea in favor of 5.6-inches after market reaction from the Galaxy Mega sizes.

You will notice different model number of these devices, which generally refer to the destination or carrier. For example, SM-N900V refers to Verizon. The bottomline is that I am sure Samsung has prototypes for many screen sizes, but that doesn’t mean they will be final products. I am sure there were a few prototypes of the Galaxy S 4 as well. It doesn’t make any sense for Samsung to offer three different sizes all about .20 inches apart. But that is just my opinion, we will see what happens at the big announcement in a little under a month.

A new Galaxy Note 3 report seems to suggest that Samsung is testing different sizes for its upcoming flagship smartphone, although it's unclear at this point whether the company is actually thinking of launching the handset in different screen sizes.

While this is an unconfirmed rumor, it looks like there's a document in the wild that lists shipments of several Galaxy Note 3 models with screen sizes of 5.5, 5.7 and 5.99 inches. This would match Samsung's policy of launching a phone for almost every taste – just check out this year's Galaxy S4 family.

Initially spotted by TechKiddy, the screenshot below comes from Indian logistics website Zauba, which shows the Galaxy Note 3 coming in three different sizes.

Considering the variety of Galaxy Note 3 rumors out there that are rather conflicting when it comes to display size – some older ones say 5.99-inch while newer ones say 5.7-inch – such a document makes some sense, and seems to indicate that Samsung may have not chosen the final design of the handset.

Similar reports concerning the nature of the display – flexible or not flexible – as well as fingerprint-reading technology have also circulated recently, suggesting that the design of the handset is far from final.
