Another Note 1 to Mega user. I have no regrets with the Mega. As far as people's reactions amazingly I've been able to not draw attention to it yet as I guess I've concealed it well. lol People at work don't have a clue and they probably figure it's still my Note 1.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] TravisBean:
Your in Mega denial............... :D
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] cbass:
Anybody that has something funny to say about it gets the same response. I only have room in my pants for 12 inches. Until they make a 8 inch phone, I will always have spare room.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Mad383Max:
Hmm, what you trying to say? 12 - 8= 4???:confused::o
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] koniakki:
He is say saying that his pants has a depth of 12 inches(30cm) and and that he can fit a phone up to 8 inches(20cm) height. And then he will have a spare of 4 inches(10cm) with an 8 inch phone inside.

Boy those are some deep pockets.. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Mad383Max:
Um, yes I got that. Was trying to be funny, but obviously I missed. Lol.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] cbass:
No, you were right. It was a peen joke.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] koniakki:
Oh ok. Its just we have many non English native members here and many times they need a little help understanding.

Just trying to be helpful. ;)

P.S: LOL I just saw your username. I should have known. I love MadMax. I recently did a MadMax trilogy movie marathon. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Mad383Max:
Yes, i am a Road Warrior fan and a car nut. Search my username on YouTube and you can see me runnimg my Camaro in the quarter mile.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] koniakki:
Then you are a TRUE fan of MadMax.... ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] cbass:
At work, can't youtube. :(

Camero? 14's?

:P 12.90@109 in my moostang, only thing I changed was mufflers so i could more america all over the place.

12.6 at 108 best. Video was with 700 miles on motor, smaller zz4 cam and no programming on stock 5.7 chip. Put a comp cams 270HR cam and started doing some chip programming on my own to get my best times. Never got much quicker as i kept breaking the transmission (6 times) i had a TCI reverse pattern manual valve body that would literally snap your head back on both 1-2 shift and chirped the tires on the 2-3. I wound up going back to a stock valve body to keep it streetable. It has been sitting for last 6 years with a bad rod bearing. Life has pretty much kept me from doing anything with it. Working on my son's Cadillac right now and then will pull motor and start again.

Awesome! A coworker of mine has a 84(?) with a 383 in it, but he's always playing with his tune using tools and floats and things. Won't come drag, won't come autocross. Thing doesn't see much other than the inside of his garage.

It is clean, just a little off-topic chatter. If it offends you, don't read this thread.

Self appointed thread police are not allowed here. Go find a car that's illegally parked and call 911. :silly:
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] b0neZ:
But only if the call is made from a Mega!

I really need to get one...

(Boom! Back on topic.)
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Christogq:
I finally got it! Everybody looks at it with such envy. GN3? Mehhhh it's too small
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] vipfreak:
^Lol

Amazingly, I feel like my Mega is already shrinking a bit. I don't dare touch my 7in tablet, that will really accelerate things.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] koniakki:
LOL!

I'm almost used to its size. I'm a 5"11(bit muscular tho 82kg/180pounds) with about normal hands and I can surely say this phone feels just fine in my hands.

The one reminder of its size, is when I try to use it with one hand... The phone was made for the guy below! :p
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] vipfreak:
Well... I'm unfortunately Tom Cruise height (thanks asian parents) and my hands aren't. All that big, but having a bigger screen is more important than if i can hold it one handed. I don't think I've every used a phone with just one hand anyway.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] cbass:
New reaction today:

"I should get one for my boyfriend, he just broke his iPhone"

And I was thinking about buying her a drink...

also, I'm just north of 6 foot, and have almost a 12 inch span from pinky to thumb when spread out. (that's 145 cm for those metric folk. Ok, that might not be true, but the metric system is witchcraft so I have no clue how it works) so the phone just works for me. No need for one handed operation, I won't use it while driving, and the rest of my life is spent sitting at my desk.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] koniakki:
12inches? No way! That's 30cm and you are either that guy in picture I previously posted or you are a giant and you should be in the Guiness records. :p

Guys and our sizes! My say you are at 9-10inches(24-25cm) at best for large hands. ;)

Please excuse the off topic.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Christogq:
Ha! My boss just asked me why did I bring my tablet to work!!!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] koniakki:
lol!

P.S: Also on a side note I forgot to mention that I had my Mega for almost a week before selling my GNote.

And this is gonna sound funny, but, when I took my GNote out of its box to clean it and put the stock ROM on it... wait for it... IT FELT SMALL! It really did!

Like holding an S3 when I had the GNote but a bit more pronounce difference.

I cannot go back to 5.3" screen or less. Maybe 5.7-6" yes. But not less. I never believed that the 5.3" GNote would ever feel "small"! :p
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Christogq:
I know what ya mean. When I was setting up for the guy I sold it to I was thinking to myself how did I manage to use this thing for so long lol.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Christogq:
Cashier at Subway: Damn! Even Stevie Wonder can see that screen!
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] shayneflashindaily:
So I'm thinking I'll be grabbing one of these megas in The next few weeks .....I have T-Mobile and have read quite a bit about issues with service and keeping good data speeds ....hopefully I don't have a issue .....wondering if I should use at&t....tmo......straight talk.....love my gnote but if I get the mega and some development actually starts around here lol I'll get rid of my O.G.Note for the low low

√-2$HAYNE-√
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Mad383Max:
I have been accused of having large hands, so I just measured mine: 10 inches. So what you said sounds about right. Though Cbass may have the extra large ones:o....
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] starmaster10:
I have had the mega 6.3 for a few weeks now and i must say it is awesome and the screen size is very nice and this phone works very well, and my friends just say wow when they see if for the first time, my note 1 just feels small to me now also, i was thinking of a note 3..but this mega serves my purpose very well and i couldn't be happier with it. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Christogq:
The screen size alone made it worth the jump to me. I can't go back now lol. I don't even wanna see my Note anymore.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] koniakki:
Amen brother! lol! :p
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] SosaB:
Today in the break room I had to sit next to a girl with an iPhone, since I have a charger designed to charge both iPhone and android simultaneously I offered her to charge hers as well since there's only one A/C socket. When she saw my mega she looked at her phone and asked how much I paid. I said 450, and she responded "I paid 700$ for this??? And you can get that?!" Hahahaha.

Another, I was showing my co-workers a YouTube video, one of them responded "feels like I'm at home watching t.v"

I love this phone. My girlfriend has a note 2 and I used to think that phone was big, but now after using this phone for a few weeks it feels so tiny, don't get me started on a s4/s3 they feel incredibly tiny now too.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] trurl3:
I want to post my own reaction to Mega: Wow!!!

I was waiting very eagerly for SGN3 and still think that it is great phone! I was happy because of first rumors about 6 inch screen in it. But when reality occurs, it became less attractive. Then I found state about Mega and fell in love instantly... Now I decided to buy Mega instead GN3. It has all what I need and besides it has BIGGER screen :good:. As I am fan of reading and internet browsing I decided there's nothing what better meets my needs.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] diehardbattery:
I've had a lot of phones over the past year, most recently the Moto X on AT&T. That phone is a 9.9/10 in my book, but people kept complaining that I was cutting in and out. Granted it might have been a bad phone. However when I got the Moto X, I also saw the Mega, and couldn't get it out of my mind since then.

Needless to say, I now have the Mega (owned a Note 2 in the past) and it's beautiful! Looking forward to getting root on the i527.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Christogq:
I went and shot ball with my buds last night and at least 3 people told me they were gonna go buy the Mega this weekend instead of waiting for the Note 3 lol. Everybody loves the size of it! The phone that is.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] koniakki:
Cool stories.. Oh and I surely know the feeling about other "smaller" phones. lol!

Exactly the same as me. Waited for the Note 3 with the rumored 6", but although the 0.3" would matter much if I was going to get it, the 75%(Mega=€400/Note3=€700) price premium over the Mega was enough to convince me, besides obviously the 0.6" screen increase sealed the deal.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] HelloJessicka:
Just got the Samsung Mega on U.S Cellular and I'm in love! I haven't put it down all day!
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] starmaster10:

[Samsung Galaxy Mega] jamaljmys:
i could not catch why Samsung did that!!!!

the keyboard not have feature to use in one hand mode, what is this and why??

what does Samsung mean? the option is available in smaller and older devices such note.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Jamio1988:
I've gotten mostly the typical "is that thing a phone" or "dude what the he'll is that thing".

I just happily tell them about it and explain why I love it so much. I came from a 4.5" screen and COULD NOT be happier with the Mega.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] starmaster10:
I bet the size difference is quite a thing indeed, and the looks and performance for this type of device is very good..enjoy your mega to the fullest. :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Jamio1988:
So far I'm really enjoying it, once it gets root then it will be to the fullest, lol. I'm still amazed at how thing this thing is....it has no real "bulk" to it for being such a large device.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] starmaster10:
It is sleek and elegant for a device this size indeed and is MEGA awesome and i am very glad i got one and it is rooted already..i have the i527m model. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Jamio1988:
Lucky you :P

For now I shall dream of a day mine can get root access and daydream all the wonderful things I shall do to it, haha.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] ac19189:
Haha I pulled mine out at work when my manager asked me for the time and her eyes got as big as a golf ball and she was like HOLY CRAP WHAT IS THAT A TV!? XD I just said no its a nuclear detonation testing device and for like ten seconds she believe me. xD!
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] starmaster10:
Nice..you had her going there for a bit by the sounds of it, she must have thought it was awesome in the end i bet. :good:

Of course I will :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] vipfreak:
I had a get together with some car friends the other day, they mostly had iPhones. I pulled my mega out like everything was normal and all their jaws dropped. What's hilarious is some of them had seen me when I had my Note 1 and though that was big. They were baffled at my Mega. lol
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] starmaster10:
Nice...i bet they were stunned, now they say a picture is worth a thousand words..just to see the look on their faces. :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] vipfreak:
Unfortunately, no pics of them but general puzzlement and inadequacy was the general feeling. lol

They did take this pic though.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] starmaster10:
Forsure what a difference in size..i am a mega man through and through also. :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] DONDIVIRREY:
What launcher are you using? Nice look for the calendar and time.

[Samsung Galaxy Mega] lamebmx:
I had to warranty my refurb HTC Vivid. So I received the box. I open the shipping box and inside, instead of the cheap cardboard and saran wrap for a refurb model, there was a new phone box. I got so excited. I saw Samsung .. Galaxy Mega .. I was getting pretty amped. Its new. Samsung Galaxy. I open the box and my first thought was:

Rediculous

I know I had wanted a bigger phone, break the 5" screen mark. This was rediculous like someone heard my thoughts and played a joke.

powered it on and though this thing is rediculous, funny joke and I am stuck with it.

Well a couple days later it is an awesome phone. I have finally got used to the size and how slim it is makes it feel nice in the pocket. sync's with my car stereo fast and displays track info which is nice... im on the mini tablet bandwagon now!!!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] starmaster10:
Nice to hear and yes it is bigger but it is awesome..enjoy your mega. :)

[Samsung Galaxy Mega] ivanox1972:
Hi, I am also new in mega club, had note 1 before.... Phone is good, battery excellent... may be optimal screen size could be 6 or 6.1 (hope for mega 2 with a bit richer colors). My q is can we expect 4.3 upgrade (as I understand our phone is similar to s3), or better 4.4 later? We must got some update, no one of better or best samsung phones finished without any one...

I doubt it

[Samsung Galaxy Mega] ivanox1972:
I think not more than 1 upd; but 0 will not fair- this device is not low range. According to s4 forum; 4.3 brings better battery and not so big interface changes...

Note is not Mega. Different categories. I am just realistic. :rolleyes:

I go to the gym 5 of 7 days of the week and all the guys in the sauna room every other day were like holy mother of phones. They think it's the Note 3 though had to keep correcting them. One guy said he usually doesn't care about size but at 6.3 he just can't have a phone knowing that it's bigger then his penis. We all gave him the wtf look.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] starmaster10:
I bet they are wondering what the phone is at that size..it sure makes people take notice. :cool:

I like my Mega GT-I9205. I'd love it if it could get some development love.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] shingers5:
got mine today and yes i snapped some of the sim card holder pins cause my nano sim holder was too fat! thankfully it still works and i love the phone..........the size is what i love. i hate my s4 as find it too small and loved my note 2 but it was time to move on. this Mega has LTE and 1.5 gb ram which isnt bad and snapdragon dual core chip is no slouch. however touchwiz is really bad on this phone and ruins the experience. it lags and hangs and stutters especially when typing. shame really as i love it. just upgraded my sim to 4G and i cant wait to blow people away. cm10.2 will absolutely fly on this thing i am sure. patience will be paid off soon i am sure
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] shayneflashindaily:
I have no lag at all.. Smooth sailing. I didn't ever run touch wiz with my i717 but on this device It's not bothering me. But cm and other custom development will Def push it above and beyond.

When I bought my Mega I was actually going for the Note 3. I was coming from a Skyrocket but before that I had the Dell Streak (the original mega phone). My upgrade was available in July but I heard about the Note 3 and waited until it was released. I had heard about the Mega but I didn't think 4/10" would make much difference and I was digging the quad-core processor. But when I got to the store they had the Mega and the Note 3 pretty much side-by-side on display. It didn't take me long to fall in love with the Mega. I was like a bug in front of a bright light.

The salesperson was trying to steer me to the Note 3. Saying that the Note 3 would yield better battery life and snappier response. Battery life got my interest because the battery life absolutely stunk on the Skyrocket. But I was soon heading back to the bright light. I'm very happy that I chose the Mega. Battery life is Ok. I'm happy if the battery last more than 24-hours which the Mega does and I'm hitting LTE pretty heavy all day. The only drawback so far is finding a car holder for this behemoth. I have the Otterbox Defender case so that makes it a wee bit more challenging...
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] starmaster10:
Nice little story..and the light guided you to the awesome mega in the end. :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] AustrianAtheist:
From S3 to Mega

So, the name says it.. it's mega, but for someone like me who literally never uses his phone for calling it's awesome!

Browsing the web, watching videos, taking pics and watching them is awesome! Everything works perfect and even after playing several HD Games the phone didn't crash or lagged.

In my opinion it's the perfect phone for heavy internetusers like me! And the price (380€) is awesome!!

Love it and will never buy a smaller phone!

(sry for my english, I'm from austria) ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] starmaster10:
Another nice story and you bet the mega seems to be just the right phone for me also..does everything i want it to do for my needs. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] securespark:
I guess if Samsung are updating their other high-end smartphones every 12 months (S, SII, SIII, S4, Note, Note II, Note 3), the Mega II (or 2) will arrive in the UK around July 2014. They're hard at work on replacing it as we speak!
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Mad383Max:
Only if Samsung had classified the Mega as a high end smartphone not the mid-tiered it is considered.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] tasospaok123:
I got my mega on a discount 2 months ago. I was searching for a phone at around 300€ and found it at 350€. I was in a huge dilemma because of its size but I realised that I wouldn't be able to find something better. So I took the shot. I had a 3.8" LG optimus 7 (a windows phone) before that. The first week was awkward but finally I got used to it. The SGS4 feels so small in my hand now.

Now the reactions. I didn't tell any of my friends that I got the mega. So one day we went out, the phone rang and I answered a call. They were astonished and then they started laughing. Even today they say their phones feel inadequate compared to my mega.

On campus, I caught some guys staring at it. They said " we've been arguing whether it's a phone or a tablet".

I really love this phone. The only problem is that when someone shows me something on a phone smaller than 4.0" I have trouble reading it.. Not to mention I can't type on other phones now. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] HelloJessicka:

Go settings then mydevice under input and control@ one hand operation.. there you'll find it eventually.

did you see the photo up of your reply?

i mean no one-hand operation for KEYBOARE in mega although MEGA is the most needed for this feature which available in most of other smaller devices.

again, what the Samsung mean by that? and why selling the device if they are pre-decided to kill it same did for tab7.7?
