After the success of Galaxy Note, Samsung went on to produce a new successor named Note 2 with even a bigger screen. Now it seems that Samsung Galaxy wants to keep up with that trend as both the phones received a great response from the users. This time they have released a phone with 5.8 inches screen which is even bigger than Galaxy Note 2 but as of now it has not be launched in India but it is available only to use the users in Russia and Europe, they have named this phone as Samsung Galaxy mega 5.8. He hardware specs are also decent but quite below when compared with their beast Samsung Galaxy S4, let us take a deeper look at the specs.
Well the screen size of 5.8 inches is accompanied by qHD display with the resolution of 960 x 540 pixels and the processor used on this phone is of 1.4 GHz Dual Core processor exact model of the processor has not been mentioned yet but the RAM used is somewhat awkward in number as it has never been seen before (1.5 GB). The battery backup has been depleted to 2600 mAh when compared with Galaxy Note 2 (3100mAH) so I can easily conclude that with availability of larger screen and the difference of 500mAh on the battery strength will make a huge different in the talk-time and stand-by of Samsung Galaxy Mega 5.8.
The primary camera used has the common features like smile-detection, auto-focus and others with an LED Flash Support, it’s of 8MP and the secondary camera used on this phone is of 1.9 MP (VGA). This will be a Dual SIM Phone with GSM bands on both the SIM slots. The internal memory capacity of the phone is 8GB and it can be extended up to 64GB. The phone seems to be little heavy with the size of 182 grams.

Conclusion
As far as the hardware specs sum up, this phone is good for the large screen lovers but it is not as powerful Galaxy Note 2 but please do not expect the same degree of stability of Android version as it was seen Galaxy Note 2. The price of the phone is not revealed but if they priced it anywhere above 30k INR then it will be a turn off for the users. Phone misses out the Quad-Core processor and HD display (which is relay important when you are talking about the phone with the big screens).
