Description

The Samsung Galaxy Mega 6.3 truly deserves its name for its among the largest handsets to ever see the light of day sporting a massive 6.3-inch 720p screen. Providing processing power is a dual-core 1.7GHz processor backed up by 1.5GB of RAM for smooth multitasking performance. With an 8-megapixel camera on its back, the Samsung Galaxy Mega 6.3 should be a decent snapper given the right circumstances, while that 1.9MP front-facing cam will come in handy when you're in the mood for a video chat. There are also 8 or 16 gigs of on-board storage, 3200 mAh battery and LTE connectivity.
