Fancy another colour to choose from when getting either your Samsung Galaxy Mega 6.3 or Samsung Galaxy Mega 5.8 smartphone? Well, rumours are out that the pair of Samsung Galaxy Mega smartphones may soon come in Plum Purple. The leak comes courtesy of Sammobile who also predict that it should be available in week 28-30, which is another 2 or so weeks away.

Samsung's oversized phablets continue to grow with the Samsung Galaxy Mega 5.8 and 6.3. Thankfully, their prices have also been revealed as vendors have started selling the Samsung Galaxy Mega 5.8 in India at INR24900 (RM1364). The Samsung Galaxy 6.3 has been priced at INR31490 (RM1725). The price isn't entirely unexpected as both phablets only have midrange specs and should feature just a bit higher than the Samsung Galaxy Grand.

While the Samsung Galaxy Mega 5.8 and Samsung Galaxy Mega 6.3 were both officially announced last month, recent rumours confirm release dates for Europe and Russia will be Week 20 to Week 25 for the Galaxy Mega 5.8 and Week 19 to Week 21 for the Galaxy Mega 6.3. Hopefully, Malaysia and other Asian regions will get the next batch of shipments after this. The Samsung Galaxy S4 mini and the Samsung Galaxy S4 Active are expected to be released in Week 29 while the Samsung Galaxy S4 Zoom is expected from Week 23 to Week 25. For those of you who haven't been counting, this week is Week 19.

Samsung has officially announced that both Samsung Galaxy Mega 5.8-inch and 6.3-inch models are coming soon. For now, all news points these two screen-size record breaking phablets heading outside of Malaysia and into Europe in May 2013. The tech specs that we predicted earlier on are mostly accurate except for the fact that these two new phablets will likely offer support for new software features such as Air View, Pop-up Play, Multi Windows and much more.

As mentioned earlier, Samsung is rumoured to have been working on a 5.8-inch and 6.3-inch smartphone going by the name of the Mega under the models of GT-I9152 and GT-I9200. Recently, more rumours regarding these two models have surfaced including the tech specs:

Galaxy Mega 5.8-inch (GT-I9152)

• 1.4GHz dual-core processor
• 1.5GB RAM
• 8MP rear camera + 2MP front camera

• 164 x 83.8 x 9.7mm

Just in from the rumour mill is that Samsung will soon be releasing a phablet called the Samsung Galaxy Mega and the new Galaxy Tab 3 Plus. The Samsung Galaxy Mega rumour mentions that it will release two models under this naming convention with the separate model numbers of GT-I9200 for a 6.3-inch version and the GT-I9152 for a 5.8-inch version with dual SIM support. Other rumours surrounding the Samsung Galaxy Mega models is that they may lack S Pen capabilities and have slightly lowered features in the same way like the Samsung Galaxy Grand.
