Samsung Galaxy Mega 5.8" & 6.3" Announced

Well, Samsung recently announced Galaxy S 4 and they are back again with two new phablets - Samsung Galaxy Mega 5.8 and 6.3.
We were expecting something like this from Samsung for quite a time and it was no surprise when they officially announced these huge smartphones.
As the name suggests, Galaxy Mega will be available in two sizes - 5.8"inch & 6.3"inch.

According to a press release, Samsung Galaxy Mega 6.3 features an HD display. The reason behind Samsung not making the device Full HD might be that they don't want people to choose this device over their flagship device, Samsung Galaxy S4.

Talking about specs, Galaxy Mega 6.3" will feature a 1.7GHz Dual-core processor running Android 4.2 and an 8 MP camera similar to Galaxy S III. The phone will also offer LTE and HSPA along with two storage options to pick from - 8 GB and 16GB.

Coming to Galaxy Mega 5.8, it will be carrying low specs with it. Powered by a 1.4 GHz Dual-core processor, Mega 5.8 will feature a qHD (960x540) resolution display with only one storage option to pick - 8GB. The phone will offer HSPA-only and no LTE.

We have no details regarding the pricing of these two devices but they surely won't cost as big as their size.

With size of almost a tablet (7" inch), we are not sure how successful Galaxy Mega will be in this current market. But, Samsung is making sure that users are left with all possible sizes to choose from.

MWC'13-Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 : What It Has To Offer?

Finally after all the rumors and leaked pictures, Samsung's new baby tablet has finally been announced. Its called the Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0. It was one of the worst-kept secrets recently and we all were expecting this device to come out soon enough.

Talking about the device, Galaxy Note 8.0 is designed fairly well and with just 338g, it feels really comfy in your hands. Samsung claims that they were inspired by the standard Moleskine notebook while designing this device.

Getting down to specs, it's powered by a 1.6Ghz quad-core Exynos processor running Android Jellybean 4.1.2 and packs in a massive 2GB of RAM. The 8 inch HD screen is quiet stunning producing 189 ppi enhanced with a feature called “Readers Mode” that automatically adjusts the screen settings while reading e-books. 

Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 is boosted with a massive 4800 mAh battery which will easily last for more than a day with heavy usage.

The 5.0 MP camera on the Galaxy 8.0 is not as great as we were expecting but then again using a tablet as your primary camera device, not a good idea. 

Don't you think we are forgetting something?? Ya, right. When there is 'Note', there is 'S-Pen'. Note 8.0 features a “Premium Suite” of applications designed to utilize the S Pen (which includes multi-window) . And the good news is, it allows third-party developers to use S pen's hover-gestures to add new features into their very own software.(Great!!) They have also added a new remote program that acts like universal TV remote. 

Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 will be available in two variants : 3G-enabled & WiFi Only and will be launched in the second quarter of this year.  

It will interesting to see how tough it proves out to be in front of iPad mini and Nexus 7.

Step 3: Start the Galaxy Camera in download mode (Turn it off, and turn back on while pressing and holding Volume Down+Camera+Power).

Step 4: Connect the Samsung Galaxy camera to PC using USB cable. If drivers are installed fine, the first box under ID:COM will turn yellow.
