| 6.3" Mega |
Samsung may be stretching credibility with their latest offering, the 6.3" phablet, Galaxy Mega. (There's also a 5.8" model but who wants to settle for second best?)
I reckon a device like this is going to look well cool, right up to the point where you put it against your ear. From thereon in, call the dork patrol.
Let's hope that buyers will invest in a bluetooth headset to avoid the major faux pas of using it like a regular phone.
Specs are currently quite sketchy but we know the screen has an 'HD' resolution of 1280 x 720. Shipping with Android 4.2 Jelly Bean, the processor is a 1.7 GHz dual-core, manufacturer so far unknown. 8 GB and 16 GB models will be sold and the Mega has a microSD slot to allow a further 64 GB expansion of storage.
Pricing at this stage is really only a guess but don't expect this one to come cheap.
It's released hot on the heels of the Samsung Galaxy S-IV, which hits the world stage on April 27th. The Mega starts shipping in larger markets in May 2013 but no indication yet when New Zealand will see this giant unleashed.
