Samsung Galaxy Mega 5.8 Release Date and Pricing Officially Revealed

The Galaxy Mega 5.8 sports a qHD 5.8-inch display with a 1.4 GHz dual-core processor combined with 1.5 GB of RAM. It also features a 8-megapixel rear and 1.9-megapixel front camera, 8GB of internal memory with micro SD card slot and runs on Android Jelly Bean 4.2. It features most of the TouchWiz elements we saw on the Galaxy S4.

The Galaxy Mega 5.8 is Samsung’s attempt to take on the likes of the Huawei Ascend Mate 6.1 as well as some similarly over sized tablets from local vendors. Samsung also has a Galaxy Mega 6.3 in the offing but it looks unlikely that Samsung will launch both the devices together. We expect Samsung to price it between Rs 22,000 to Rs 24,000

We will be at ground zero tomorrow bringing you all the details from Samsung’s press conference.
