MartialRanger23 Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 Okay, so I am the kind of person who believes bigger phones are better, and I was super excited when Samsung revealed the Samsung Galaxy Mega 6.3. It is also fairly cheap for a smartphone. My one question is this: Is it on Sprint? It would be just like Samsung to release this only on AT&T like they did with the Galaxy Camera and Note. I have Googled it and I can't seem to find an answer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newboyx Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 There have been no leaks or rumors of it coming to Sprint. Honestly I don't think it will come to Sprint. This is just another of the boatload of phones releases overseas. The Note 3 will be out in a few months. At least the Note will have good specs. The Mega is mid range at best.

MartialRanger23 Posted August 3, 2013 Author Share Posted August 3, 2013 Yeah that is true. Thanks. I am very disappointed in its specs. The 5.8 is even worse. I think I will just wait until the Note 3 comes out or I will just buy the GS4 Triband. My Nexus 7 2013 has the perfect screen for me right now, so I'll just stick with it and my GS3 until the GS4 Triband comes out. Thanks again!

Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 4 Beta The Sprint Samsung SPH-L600 has received Bluetooth Certification, and mtest on cloud4sites.com says it has Android 4.2.2. Early rumors state that the L600 could be the Galaxy Mega 6.3. But then again, it's only a rumor at this point. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that it's guaranteed to be released in the end, look at the Samsung SPH-L500 (it's been superseded by the SPH-L520 already). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supersanborn Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 I honestly don't know what the appeal of the Mega would be against the Note 3. Why would you want an under-spec'd device with a monster screen when you could still have a monster screen with good specs and battery life to match?

Sent from Josh's iPhone 5 using Tapatalk 2 True but since most people still buy their phones on contract, the pricing difference is often completely mitigated if one just gets the right Wirefly/Amazon Wireless/etc deal. I'm also a total spec whore who is ALWAYS wanting something more, so it would drive me absolutely bonkers to have something mid-range, even if I did get some tiny little concession in device pricing (plan pricing is where the biggest expense is anyways).

ericdabbs Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 http://www.androidcentral.com/samsung-galaxy-mega-coming-att-sprint-and-us-cellular I have a feeling Sprint will price this at $149 with 2 year contract given that AT&T is planning to sell it at that price. I would be shocked if this sells for $99 with 2 year contract. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smashed Ixnay Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 I think the Note 2 was pushing it, but a 6.3" phone? I can't wait to see this thing in the wild once it's released. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kencon06 Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 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.
