A 6-inch screen was still considered big back when the Galaxy Mega 2 launched, and it's the main reason to consider this one. Resolution tops out at 720 x 1280, so text isn't razor-sharp, but for browsing and video on a large panel it gets the job done. Under the hood you get either an Exynos 4415 or Snapdragon 410 depending on the variant, paired with 1.5GB RAM and 16GB storage that's expandable via microSD up to 64GB. That's enough for basic apps and media, not much more.
Camera-wise, there's an 8MP rear shooter with autofocus and LED flash, capable of 1080p video, plus a 2.1MP front camera for the occasional selfie or video call. Battery capacity sits at 2800mAh, and with LTE Cat4 onboard you're not stuck on 3G speeds. Samsung Galaxy Mega 2 price in Malaysia starts from RM899.
It ships with Android 4.4.3 KitKat and comes in White or Black. NFC and GPS with GLONASS round out the connectivity, useful extras for a phone built around screen size rather than raw power.
