Samsung Galaxy Mega 6.3 and 5.8 Price, Specs and Availability in the Philippines

Samsung Electronics recently held at the 2nd floor of SM Aura at Fort Bonifacio the opening of the first (also the largest) Samsung Experience Store in the country and the launch of Samsung Galaxy Mega, a device that combines the portability and convenience of a smartphone with the power, multitasking capabilities and extensive viewing experience of a tablet. More details after the jump.

The Samsung Galaxy Mega offers a mix of popular smartphone and tablet features such as an effortless user experience, a split screen, multitasking between video and other apps and more. The Galaxy Mega is equipped with an enhanced 8 megapixel rear-facing camera with a 1.9 megapixel front-facing camera, along with a variety of camera modes including ‘Drama Shot’(merging continuous shots of a moving object), ‘Sound & Shot’ (captures 9 seconds of sound and voice together as the picture is taken to capture moments), ‘Rich tone,’ ‘Sports’ and more.

For users seeking the same great tablet features with even more portability, Samsung is introducing the Galaxy Mega 5.8. This more compact version features a 5.8-inch screen and supports dual-SIM, although not LTE like its bigger brother.

Both Galaxy Mega 6.3 and 5.8 run on the latest Android 4.2 Jelly Bean experience, and feature Dual Core Processor, spacious internal storage along with up to 64GB of expandable memory to store favorite apps, music, videos, photos and more. The devices’ advanced software also facilitates more efficient processor use for improved battery life, meaning users can enjoy longer talk time and multimedia use.
