The large screen Samsung Galaxy Mega 2 is the large screen device for the latest large screen smartphone for the masses but even at the retail price of RM1299, some people would appreciate a little help or a bundled postpaid plan. This is why Maxis are now offering the 6-inch display phablet from RM599. You will have to sign up for a 24-month contract for one of the MaxisONE plans but you still get limitless calls and SMS. Those who have good payment records won't have to pay the advance payment. For more details, check out the table and links in this article.

The successor to the Samsung Galaxy Mega 5.8 and Galaxy Mega 6.3 has appeared with the Samsung Galaxy Mega 2. The 5.98-inch phablet was recently spotted at China's Tenaa revealing pics and tech specs. These tech specs and features include a 64-bit 1.2GHz Qualcomm snapdragon 410 processor, 2GB RAM, 8GB storage with support for microSD flash memory, a 5.98-inch display with 120 x 1280 pixel resolution, 13MP rear camera with LED flash, 5MP front camera and Android 4.4 KitKat. Since it is coming out for China it supports TD-LTE which is the 4G LTE version in China. The phablet measures in at 163.6 x 84.9 x 8.6mm which is quite large despite having fairly thin bezels and an artifical leather backside. No specific Malaysia release dates or pricing yet, but if it is already out in China, it should be here in Malaysia soon.
