Samsung Galaxy Mega 6.3 is an amazing phone released some years ago, in 2013, including a high speed Dual-Core CPU clocking at 1.7 GHz, a large 6.3" multi-touch capacitive screen, and two cameras, an 8 MP back facing camera and a 1.9 MP front facing camera.

Samsung ships this phone with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 MSM8930AB system chip, including a very fast Dual-Core CPU clocking at 1700 megahertz and a huge 1,5 GB RAM. Graphic calculations generally eats lots of processing power, so this phone uses an extra 450 MHz Adreno 305 GPU to help handle those graphic tasks. An interesting aspect of this phone is its 15,98 GB quite big internal memory and a slot for an SD memory card, allowing you to install hundreds of apps and games without running out of space.

Samsung offers the Samsung Galaxy Mega 6.3 in two color options: black and white. This cellphone is much lighter than what one would expect from a cellphone like this. Even though this phone only has 6.6 inches long, it is still able to fit a a 6.3 inches display. This device is very slim and comfortable, being just 0.31" thick.

The Samsung Galaxy Mega 6.3 is equipped with a nice 1280 x 720 (HD) 6.3 inches display, which makes everything look very nice. Its display uses Super Clear LCD capacitive technology, and is multi-touch enabled.

The Samsung Galaxy Mega 6.3 offers Wi-Fi capability (and it can be provided to other devices around, as a mobile hotspot), LTE (4G) great performance connection type and also HSPA+ internet connection, that is a bit slower 4G type and fast 3G data connection, over HSDPA, HSUPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. This phone uses a Micro SIM card for GSM services and it can use both GSM and CDMA carriers.

This phone is equipped with two cameras, an 8 MP back facing camera and a 1.9 MP front-facing camera. This device also films Full HD 1920x1080 videos at 30 fps. Additionally, this phone's camera also features a couple of interesting characteristics: auto-focus, flash, fast burst mode, geo tagging and HDR mode.

This phone features a 3200 mAh high capacity Li-Ion replaceable battery, enough to provide the Samsung Galaxy Mega 6.3 with an incredible battery life. This phone has an estimated 18 hs talk time and a 456 hours stand by time.

This cellphone also features lots of useful characteristics as NFC (to trigger actions, transfer data or make payments by holding your phone close to another NFC device or tag), Infrared Transmitter, Bluetooth (provides communication with other phones, computers and accessories) and GPS Navigation, and multiple sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope and Compass.

Samsung offers the Mega 6.3 for $ 280, which is a very high price for a phone this level. This cellphone is a great option no matter if you you love taking photos, want this phone mainly for internet broswing and social networks, want a device for playing games or want a cellphone for work.
