Samsung GALAXY Mega 6.3 and 5.8 – They Are Getting Bigger!

Wow! Check this out!

Samsung GALAXY Mega

The New Samsung GALAXY Mega 6.3 and 5.8

The smartphones are getting bigger (I like!! Especially good for some of us with 老花眼 – Presbyopia)

Just announced by Samsung on 12th April 2013, they will be rolling out the two mega collection (heh!), the Samsung GALAXY Mega 6.3 and Samsung Galaxy Mega 5.8 to the Samsung Galaxy family – with the release of the 6.3 inch model from mid May 2013 in UK first. (The 5.8 inch model will not be released in the UK)

The Samsung Galaxy Note II, released last October, is great. The size is good for some of us who might have difficulty reading off traditional small smartphone screens.

But the Samsung Galaxy Megas are even better! Bigger! Though it is still smaller than the yet-to-be-released Samsung Note 8.0 (which should be released soon too) and the two Mega models does not come with the stylus used in all Samsung Galaxy Note models.

Hopefully this beast will come to our shores soon. I am very interested in the 6.3 model!

2013 is another exciting year for Samsung, with the Samsung GALAXY S4 releasing soon (end of this month, or early May), the Samsung GALAXY Note 8.0 on the way, and now these 2 new models!

Are you guys as excited as me too?

  1. I am using Samsung galaxy s2 and now i want to buy this Samsung Galaxy Mega 5.8 review: Medium extra large which i consider to be more better that Samsung galaxy s2 am i right? ples tell me...

    • Hi, yes of course the Samsung GALAXY Megas will be an improvement over the GALAXY S2. However, if you are looking at better specs ones, you could also consider the S3 or the new S4

      And if you are a pen and stylus user, you might also want to look at the Note2
