Samsung Mega 2 has now been listed on South Korean giant’s Thailand website. The next iteration in Samsungs Mega series strikes a balance between its successors Galaxy Mega 5.8 and Galaxy Mega 6.3 as far as display real estate is concerned.
The Mega 2 has a 6 inch display which is slightly bigger than what Samsung prefers in its Note series devices. The 6 inch display however has 720p HD resolution, which shoots down pixel density to 245 pixels per inches.
Samsung has used Exynos 4415 quad core chipset clocked at 1.5 GHz to fuel latest Android 4.4.4 Kitkat on the Mega 2. There is 1.5 GB RAM for efficient multitasking, 16 GB internal storage, Mali 400 GPU and option for 64 GB MicroSD card storage.
Samsung is offering an 8 MP unit at the rear which can record full HD videos and a front facing 2.1 MP snapper for selfies. The battery capacity is 2800 mAh, which sounds alright considering the large display size.
With its Mega series, Samsung offers extra large sized displays with other moderate hardware for a mid range price tag – a hit combination in Asian Markets. It has been priced at MYR1299 in Thailand and is expected to launch in India for around 25,000 INR. There is no word on India availability as of now.
