Samsung Galaxy Mega (TRI-BAND) [SPH-L600]

I got to see this baby today when I went to Tysons Corner and it's a huge screen. It drifnitely has a wow factor just from the size of the screen alone. AT&T is offering it for 149 I think. I didn't get a good look at the contract price but the retail price is much less than the Note 2 which shocked me. 479 vs 700. Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 4

The specs are lower on the Mega 6.3 than the Note 2. It's unfortunate, but I figure if it has Tri-Band LTE then I'm getting it for sure. I love having strange phones, and what's stranger than a 6.3 in. phone?!

Is the back plate ribbed for her pleasure?

Dude, you just posted that underneath my son's post. :mad:

 

Now that I've freaked you out...

 

He is college aged. :rofl:

I'm actually contmeplating getting the SGM for my mother.  She needs a phone with a big screen, and I am tired of watching her struggle to use her Nexus S, with its old-school mini-screen (damn presbyopia!). I don't think it would be worth the extra money it to get her the latest and greatest tri-band device, since she really dosen't use data all that much, and these will still support 1x800 for voice/text improvements. I guess I'm just not sure what device would be better for someone who has trouble seeing close up objects, the giant screen on the Mega, or the near-giant screen on the Note II with s-pen (which will likely drop in price very soon). Any thoughts?? Thanks!

Hey, we do not criticize religion at S4GRU.  Methodists, Baptists, Catholics, Jews, Muslims, Mormons, Hindus, Shintoists, Atheists, Animists, and, yes, Presbyopiists are all welcome here.

Eh, I realized the other day I could fit a 7-8" tablet in my pocket (it was an iPad Mini, to be exact). The Mega obviously doesn't go far enough!

I usually wear a 34 or 36 waist, depending. Now, I can do that in slacks or regular jeans (takes a little bit but it works); definitely can't with skinny jeans.

I remember reading about a 3rd party launcher for ppl who have trouble seeing. I forget the name.

The Sprint variant Galaxy Mega 6.3 is coming.  You heard it here first.  Oh, and I almost forgot, it is tri band LTE...

    • Good catch! I meant 115932/119932. Edited my original post I've noticed the same thing lately and have just assumed that they're skipping it now because they're finally able to deploy mmWave small cells.
    • At some point over the weekend, T-Mobile bumped the Omaha metro from 100+40 to 100+90 of n41! That's a pretty large increase from what we had just a few weeks ago when we were sitting at 80+40Mhz. Out of curiosity, tested a site on my way to work and pulled 1.4Gpbs. That's the fastest I've ever gotten on T-Mobile! For those that know Omaha, this was on Dodge street in Midtown so not exactly a quiet area!
    • Did you mean a different site? eNB ID 112039 has been around for years. Streetview even has it with C-band back in 2022 - https://www.google.com/maps/@40.7303042,-73.9610924,3a,24.1y,18.03h,109.66t/data=!3m8!1e1!3m6!1s2ossx06yU56AYOzREdcK-g!2e0!5s20220201T000000!6shttps:%2F%2Fstreetviewpixels-pa.googleapis.com%2Fv1%2Fthumbnail%3Fpanoid%3D2ossx06yU56AYOzREdcK-g%26cb_client%3Dmaps_sv.share%26w%3D900%26h%3D600%26yaw%3D18.027734930682684%26pitch%3D-19.664180274382204%26thumbfov%3D90!7i16384!8i8192?coh=205410&entry=ttu Meanwhile, Verizon's eNB 84484 in Fort Greene has been updated to include C-band and CBRS, but not mmWave. I've seen this a few times now on updated Verizon sites where it's just the CBRS antenna on its own, not in a shroud and without mmWave. Odd.
    • Drove out into the country today.  Dish stuck to my phone like glue. At least -120 rsrp. Likely only good for phone calls (should have tested.) It then switched to T-Mobile. Getting back on Dish was another issue. I am used to dragging out coverage so I expected a few miles, but had to drive at least 10 miles towards a Dish site. Airplane mode, which worked for Sprint, did nothing. Rebooting did nothing. Finally got it to change over about 2 miles from the site by manually setting the carrier to Dish then it had great reception. Sprint used to have a 15 minute timeout but I did not have the patience today.  Previously I did a speed test on Dish out in the country at the edge of Dish coverage. My speeds were 2g variety. Dish has really overclocked some of these sites. Seen rssp readings in the 50s. Would have called them boomer sites with Sprint but much  more common with Dish.
