nsane.forums Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 It's confirmed: the Galaxy Note II is now Samsung's third-largest smartphone.Last week, we heard our first rumors about Samsung's Galaxy Mega line, which would introduce phones with 6.3-inch and 5.8-inch screens to Samsung's ever-growing Galaxy family. Today, Samsung made them both official: the phones are real, and they're coming to Europe and Russia in May. The phones will be available "globally," but "availability varies by market" and the phones will be "rolled out gradually" to other territories.While the phones have large screen sizes, there's otherwise nothing particularly high-end about them. The 6.3-inch model comes with a 720p display (Samsung lists it only as "HD," but uses "Full HD" to indicate a 1080p display), a 1.7GHz dual-core processor from an unnamed manufacturer, 1.5GB of RAM, and 8 or 16GB of storage. The 5.8-inch model steps down to a 960×540 display, a 1.4GHz dual-core processor, 1.5GB of RAM, and only 8GB of storage. Both include Android 4.2, the latest version of Android.We don't yet have pricing information for the phones, but given the specifications, we expect them to be a bit cheaper than handsets like the Galaxy S 4—there's probably a market for people who want a large, inexpensive phone but don't necessarily care about pixel density. Otherwise, it seems like a step backward to offer these comparatively low-resolution displays on these large-and-in-charge phones just weeks after introducing a 5-inch, 1080p flagship.While ever-inflating screen sizes are the norm for Android phone manufacturers, Samsung in particular seems determined to make a phone for every hand size on the Earth. The Galaxy Mega, the Galaxy Note, and the Galaxy S lines are all good options if you've got big hands, but the 4-inch Galaxy S II Mini and the 3.2-inch Galaxy Young (which we saw at MWC among its larger brethren) have tiny hands covered, too.View: Original Article Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CODYQX4 Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 I think any phone more than 4.5-4.8 inches is overkill.6+ inches is f*cking stupid and obviously meant to be used by gorillas. The Galaxy S3 already makes an iPhone 5 WITH Otterbox case look tiny,Also how the hell do you fit it in a pocket if they jack up the width?May as well just hold a tablet to your head and be done with it.

Technology Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 Indeed, screen inch 5.8 and 6.3 is stupid idea. But, some people like it because of multitasking, drawing, reading and photo editing. But going over 4.7 or 4.8 is foolish thing. Bearly, 4.7 or 4.8 fits in the pockets, and how will 5.8 and 6.3 will fit in?. Its better to buy Google's Nexus 7 which cost alot cheaper and has great features and hardware, if people are liking big screens for various stuff (and not caring about pockets size and even chances of breaking and looking stupid with huge screen phones) and now Google has introduced Nexus 7 with HSPA+ is better to buy that.

Samsung wants to make a phone which is competing with tablets? What a stupid idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
