It has been a few days since the new Samsung Galaxy Mega was introduced, the next step in the ascending ladder of the South Korean firm when it comes to large format mobile phones. To open this family, the company showed two models, each with 5.8 and 6.3-inch panels. With this, it proposes a couple of formats that surpass the already large Samsung Galaxy Note 2, which with its 5.5-inch screen proposed a clever approach to the format that in other devices we identify with the tablet.
Since the South Korean opened the melon of smartphones of generous proportions with the first Samsung Galaxy Note, back in September 2011, we have witnessed a curious phenomenon that did not have them all to succeed. Despite this, Samsung took the cat into the water. To confirm this, it is enough to remember any walk through the corridors of the past Mobile World Congress 2013. Then we checked in situ that the trend of the manufacturers pointed precisely to the integration of a device that flirted with the five inches as standard for their high-end. Some even proposed check in size with terminals that would be understood as a hit on the table. "" Let's remember theHuawei Ascend Mate and its 6.1 inches ””.
The tabletóphones ”” or phablets, or “” ” tablets are here to stay. The Galaxy Note family, in its category of mobiles, proves it. Samsung has registered millionaire sales with this range, and the rest of the firms want to take advantage of the South Korean's wake to nurture their coffers following the example. However, one wonders if users are really interested in getting a terminal that borders the six inches or if there are factors that make this proposal especially attractive at this time.
The presentation of the Samsung Galaxy Mega 5.8 and Samsung Galaxy Mega 6.3 took place under the umbrella of a basic premise: these teams are comfortable and fit perfectly in your pocket. Maybe not in all pockets, true. But the way in which the proportions of these teams are balanced allows that there is not, in general terms, much difference between carrying a Galaxy Note and one of the new Galaxy Mega. It is even more: even if we are users of the Sony Xperia Z or we are around the idea of getting the imminent Samsung Galaxy S4Although on paper the size differences are more than obvious, in proportions the differences are not so distant when it comes to transporting or using the device.
On the other hand, the equipment of screens with generous sizes offers a series of possibilities that many users will see with good eyes. Those who are especially given to using the phone as a leisure platform "" for video games, watching videos online or stored in memory, reading electronic books, etc "" will see how the proposal of these Samsung Galaxy Mega is considered as very appropriate. And even more if it coincides with the fact that you do not have a tablet. As an intermediate terminal, one of these Samsung Galaxy Mega could be understood as the proposal that is, as a concept, on the other side of the new range of tablets that allow the development of functions typical of a mobile phone "" such as the Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 or the Asus FonePad””.
Of course, this does not mean that any type of user could be interested in this new batch of large format mobiles. The proposal is limited to deploying on the market, with increasing specificity, different categories of terminals that help different types of customers to identify with each device according to their needs. In this sense, the arrival of the Samsung Galaxy Mega should not be seen as a hindrance to the proliferation of phones with more compact formats, but as an incentive for the offer of smartphones to be more and more complete and detailed, something that, ultimately For instance, it will have a positive impact on the end user.
