Phone Envy :( - Samsung Galaxy Mega

I've been loving my Mega for the last two weeks. Everybody gathers around to marvel at the sheer size of it.....and the phone lol. Anyway, I was at the barbershop yesterday showing it off and then this dude walks in minding his own business and pulls out I think he said a Sony something like Ultra? He said it wasn't available in the US but it had sim card slots etc. Can somebody pleeeeeeeease tell me what kind of phone it could've been. It was bigger than my Mega!

Possibly this, only slightly bigger screen though http://www.sony.com.au/product/xperia+z+ultra

Too much bezel compared to the mega

No physical buttons on ultra I believe, so the .1 extra screen size is negated by the on screen buttons.
Your Mega looks better, imho.

Forsure the mega is much nicer looking as rhe Xperia Z ultra looks more like a brick to me..and the screen size is only .1 inch bigger.

Thanks guys! I was honestly too butt hurt to ask him too many questions about it.

Man its not even out in the us and im jealous already... D:

I still prefer the Mega. I just love the look of the Galaxy devices and the specs will never make or break it for me as I can do everything I want just fine on my phablet.

Check Mega vs Ultra photo quality on GSMarena and the Ultra's photo quality is bad.

There's another consideration to be made, battery life. I know the Z Ultra has better specs than the Mega, but 1080p screen, Snapdragon 800, Triluminous, etc, etc, don't make the Z Ultra last as much as the Mega, even with a 3,000 mAh battery, and make the phone hotter.
Just to share with you guys!

I really wanted a waterproof (resistant) phone, but the Mega was too good to miss, I will just take the old S2 in a ziplock bag when I need it.

The Xperia Z Ultra is ginormous!! I compared it to my Mega 6.3 and the bezel is just too much! Nice that it's waterproof though but I'll never have a Sony again as they always seem to develop faults. Actually, only yesterday my friend's Xperia S shut down and now won't switch on for neither love nor money.
Stick with Samsung.

Oh wow. Thanks for all the feedback yall. The sting has actually faded away already. Just hopefully he won't be in the barbershop the same time I am ever again lol.

Xperia Z ultra doesn't have a removable batt or expandable storage. FAIL...

Although both phones are huge, I believe the Mega feels better on the hand. The Sony has sharp edges which makes it feel like a brick. I also felt that way in a review in YouTube where they were explain the comparison of both phones,however Ill stick with Samsung. WE JUST NEED ROOT!!!!!

Sony is tool bulky with just .1 inch bigger screen the phone outer dimension is too big for comfort and the shape also make putting into pocket difficult , Samsung is much better in design.

I will upgrade with pleasure . Don't think it is really that big . Think about what is inside of it. Think about it like it is a little computer with a phone function. Would you prefer to take your laptop or a little bit overgrown multimedia device that gives you so much? I love my SG2 and if it grows a little... Huh... So be it. There will be more to love ;-).

I'd probably wait for nexus prime next. The upgrade of this one is too incremental to worth a full upgrade from an already top of the line phone.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
If I get a refund for my S2 and if they upped the quality on the screen then I would get this instead.
its not really an upgrade is it?? it is just an lte version of the sgs2
i wont be rushing to buy it , there will always be better devices coming , the sgs2 is still a lot more powerfull then pretty much every phone on the market
imagine what will be coming in 6-12 months time?? thats when i would think about upgrading
quad core is just round the corner and it looks immense i wont be rushing out to buy another dual core when i already have a top of the range one and with tech moving so fast both will be outdated in 6 months when quad core hits the market
its just my opinion but unless you need a screen that is slightly bigger why would you bother ''upgrading'' to this???
Galaxy s was the perfect size for me..s2 is large enough for my taste..no way to buy a 4,5 screen size phone...
its 0.2" bigger. I dont think very much bigger. The rounded edges is going to give advantage and the size wont look more compared to Original SGS22..
It definitely looks much better than Original. Its designed like Glaxy S and I liked the shape of that one. The back cover looks the same as the original one. they didnt mention more about the Display, but battery wise its a big advantage too.
The good thing is that it would slash down the price of Original SGS2...
I thought this was supposed to be announced at IFA...
Too soon, would rather wait at least until Nexus Prime before upgrading.
No thank you, I don't need a tablet.
Meh, maybe if audio recording is better then on sgs2 (which shouldn't be too hard).
will wait next year. There will be LTE advanced Galaxy S3. Besides I have invested on accessories for S2.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA Premium App
So S2-Plus in Nov and S3 in Jan-Feb?
doesnt look as good as the sgs2 imo
It's just too soon. I plan to have SGS2 at least for 2 years.
But 4.5" ? I'm fine with that. I'm starting to feel my SGS2 is a bit small
Upgrade it no but consider to buy it for my wife

For me even 4.3" is a bit too big, so 100% no for 4,5" screens from me. I'd say 4" is a sweet spot for mobile phones.
Bigger screen ... . but most of the rumors seem to indicate that the resolution is still the same as for S2 at 800×480.

Is it worth upgrading to the Galaxy s3?

I really like my note because of the gorgeous screen but Im thinking about possibly upgrading to the s3 but is it worth it?
Specs wise, S3 is not much better, correct?
Is quadcore worth the upgrade? I heard that the battery life for s3 is pretty good. The battery life for ghetto note is not too impressive.
So what do you guys think?

This falls into the shiny category.
The S3 is new, but has some dev work explosion atm. The note has a huge screen and spen.
Go anđ try a smaller screen for a while, you'll get annoyed quickly.
If you are going to get the S3, import it, as lte in canada isn't really anywhere significant.
I would stick with the note and wait for the note2 or whatever replacement some big dog lets loose.

Sell me your Note if you upgrade!
well i bought my note mainly for the size of the screen
anything less than 5.3 is not an upgrade for me
since you already have a note, all new phones that come out have the advantage of using the latest technology. once you get the s3,in 3 month,something better, maybe even a note 2 might release..... see where im going?? The only advantage is the screen: most new phones have the technology,most dont come close to the note screen size though. Like the 2020 iphone might fly in the sky on its own, but still doubt it will have at least a 5.3" screen (since they only make one phone and it has to appeal to ALL of its users)

I might could work up a "upgrade frenzy" for a Gnote II since, by the time it would be ready for market, it should be ready to intergrate enough new tech with even a sweeter 5.3" screen to make it too enticing to ignore. Until that day arrives, I plan on teasing as much pleasure from this gspot. ..(damn spell check),um er, from this gnote..as can be had by mortal man...... : ) ....

Optimus G2 tease?

I watched the LG CES 2013 trailer video thing on youtube, and general speculation is that the G2 will be announced with a 5.5" screen and bumped up specs from our precious G. What are your thoughts? Will it be a Note 2 competitor, or a G replacement? And how do you think it will affect our updates?

Powerwise yes, but the note has a far larger screen. A 5" + screen would make it a closer competitor. See LG intuition for where I'm coming from.

Agreed, minus the purse. I have large hands and having tested a Note 2, I think the LGOG, and phones of the same size for that matter, have reached the optimal size for traditional use, IMO.

It's called competition. The Note phones have proven there is a market for phablets. I'm going to guess you're not studying economics or business.
I returned my Note 2 in under a week. It is too damn big.
I'll be at CES next week. Hopefully there will be something interesting to comment on.

Then I guess this will blow your mind: http://t.co/91c3vTNA
I believe with LG's newfound success regarding the G, a direct attack on the Note would be fantastic, as well as possibly a new tablet. The G2 would fulfill the phablet competition that currently hardly exists. The LG Intuition is too wide, but a form factor like our G with the larger screen would be fantastic. Add a pen display, as well as having quickmemo, and the Note has real competition. Considering LG Displays is suing over the Note 10.1 in Asia, this may indeed be their plans in a nutshell. As HTC slowly falls (sad but apparently true), it's time for Samsung to have a true competitor in the Android market. I would love to see Motorola to come out of the blue, but that seems doubtful to happen. LG has an opening, and I think they should take it. I've been a Samsung fan, and still somewhat am (the siii disappointed me), but I think nothing makes products better like competition. The iphone is competition of course, but there needs to be android competition, or devices will get progressively worse.

If it is actually 5.5 inches then I don't mind even if it is technically the successor to this phone. Only thing id like in this phone that the g2 has is the 1080p screen and the camera if its any better

... I'm not talking about tablets. If I was talking about screens in general, I would be complaining about laptops, desktops, and tv's as well. But I'm not. It's a personal opinion, and a personal opinion of a few others, that a phone doesn't exactly need a huge screen. To each his own if they prefer that size. Apple has a ridiculously tiny screen, so I'm not really sure why they were even brought up lol. Considering I'm a girl, I have naturally smaller hands and have no desire to hold a phone that I need to doublefist. And even some men agree, it's too much.
No reason to be so nasty, Butler. (;

Sorry, not trying to be nasty. Just trying to point out that just because you (and for that matter, I) have small hands doesn't mean that everyone does, or that there's only one size that the market wants (as Apple seems to believe). Everyone thought Sammy was crazy for putting the Note out there, but since it and its followup have been very successful, it's only natural that other OEMs want a piece of the action. I'd like the big screen (even if I did have to double fist it), but there's no way I'd be comfortable having that thing in my pocket, and I'll be damned if I'm wearing a holster for a phone.
I'll be honest, I can't reach the whole screen of the OG with one hand, but I don't care. I arrange my icons to be close to my thumb, and use two hands when I have to. :shrug:
Didn't mean to offend. :angel:

Except not, haha. I guess I'm in luck with the whole small hands + long fingers thing (my grandma has always told me I have piano fingers). My only fears of extending my fingers is that it slips out of my hand and falls on the ground. I have a case, but I still use at least one hand to balance it. Can't get too ballsy with this phone.
No new smartphones from LG announced. The tease was a smart remote. Nothing more.

For me, this phone is the perfect size but I was willing to use the S3. I really wouldn't want bigger than that.

Jumbo phones
I think that cell phones in history have taken a weird turn - started out like holding a brick to your face, then they got smaller and smaller, but now all the high end phones are jumbo phones.
Not much you can do when it's packing a quad core processor, etc.
Honestly I think my LGOG is the largest I'd go. SG3 maybe is easier to hold, but is taller. I really like iPhone 5 form factor, but screen too narrow.
I went to local ATTs and played with each until I was sure.
If you told me I would be using 4.7 inch back when I had my iPhone I wouldn't believe you
Sent from my LG-E970 using xda app-developers app
I can't go smaller now, but my jean's pockets are about maxed out with the OG. I'd go bigger, but I'd need jeans with deeper pockets, ha ha.
I had the Inspire for a long time and loved the size of the screen.
After I got the OG, I was like, Damn that's small..
This is pretty perfect. Other phones too massive for me.
As far as my normal everyday phone use goes, I'm maxed out with the OG. Honestly, it's mainly because I can't fit anything bigger in my pocket without worrying I'll snap it in half. I have and old Galaxy Tab that I love for watching movies, reading, etc when waiting in line somewhere. And a Xoom for certain situations at work

my nex7 fits in my pocket......
I moved from a Samsung Captivate to the LGOG. I "tolerate" the LGOG size for the features and better screen, though I prefer the Captivate for pocketability. I wouldn't go any bigger than the LGOG regardless of features.
I think its 4.7' for me. I don't see a reason for any bigger really. I have a tablet, a laptop, and a 55 inch TV so if I ever need a bigger screen, I have it.
Nexus One
The 3.7 inch screen on the Nexus One was personally my favorite size.
Optimus G is the biggest I'm willing to go. I can't see myself going any bigger.
Don't think I can handle anything bigger than the LGOG E970 due to arthritic fingers. This phone size is still comfortable even though I use 2 hands a lot. Love the screen size due to eyesight, etc. I have 7", 8.9", & 10" screen tablets for bigger screen needs.
With smartphones, started off with 4", then went to 4.3", then to this LG. No bigger for me.

I jumped from an iPhone 4 to our device and I still don't believe how comfortable I am with such a larger size. That said, I absolutely love it and wouldn't even trade for the Nexus 4 at this point!
To answer the original question, I'd say the largest I'd go is probably around 5 inches, maybe 5.5 if I had a chance to hold it before I bought it. I have huge hands, and so it's more a question of what will fit in my pocket!

I have to say 4.5". I love the LGOG but I think it is just a tad bit too big. Maybe I wouldn't notice it, if the back button wasn't so far away. But it's barely one-handable.

Pretty much this. Note 3 if you want the S-Pen or the Ultra if you want the "waterproofness" (funny looking word, but it is indeed a word ) and build quality.
Build quality is better on xzu battery isn't bad. But no flash. And not sure if note 3 has ir blaster but xzu doesn't which is annoying.

I just sold my Note 3 to get the Ultra last week. For indoor use, the Note 3 camera kinda sucks. Battery life is so-so, only lasts about a day. Build quality on Note 3 feels cheap compared to Ultra. I was never in love with Note 3, it's really just the same old plastic Samsung phone with Touchwiz.
If you have 2 hours, you can see the videos from Erica Griffin. She goes into everyday usage of both phones. In the end she moved from the Ultra to the Note 3. Here are the links:

Well considering her size...even the Note 3 could feel way big huge for her.

It's her preferences ofc, plus if you look at her impression about xzu, it is clear that she likes xzu as her daily driver before going with note 3. And plus who doesn't love a new more expensive gadget hey? yeah the note 3 experience is a bit more complete (sans the real estate of the screen that xzu offered which she like the most about xzu) but that doesn't mean that xzu is a loser compared to note 3, no, far from it. It's just that they were built for different speciality.

I would change my Ultra for the next ultra and nothing else. Every time I see a Note 3 or someone holding it I can't seem to figure out if it's really a Note 3 or a Note 2 or a GS4. It just seems the same phone with some new tweaks is all.
Don't misunderstand me, I had a GS3 and loved it, and last year you could spot a GS3 right away, people here had an iPhone, or a GS3.
With the Ultra you stand out from the crowd, and not only for the sheer size, but also for everything else.
Somebody might mock you for the lack of flash or for the impossibility of changing batteries, but deep down you see most people love it and envy your big toy.
But, more importantly, it's a fantastic beast, it doesn't do anything slowly, it simply works and the stock ROM is the most beautiful I've ever tried.
My 2 cents.

One tip though. Call them when they're working on it. My service center has anew online log of what they've done, and I also knew which day they were going to work on it, but I didn't call them to say that they had to swap the display, so I'm blaming myself a little. Don't trust them to actually do what they are supposed to do.

No that's what I'll do in morning now. I always phone ask how it's all going in case they say there not sorting much I'll kick off. I really hope on the xz1u or xzu2 however it gets called there is better camera with flash and ir blaster. I would completely love the xzu if it did. Bit my mind keeps straying still.

If you have 2 hours, you can see the videos from Erica Griffin. She goes into everyday usage of both phones. In the end she moved from the Ultra to the Note 3. Here are the links:

@romano Man first of all you are no offence crazy note 3 don't even stand near ultra it's like you are comparing a rolls to a ford ......ford could fool you with some add function's but rolls is rolls.....
@paulotex Oh god Erica do you see her hand's an iphone is bigger for those if you give her an iphone and a nokia 1100 she will jump nokia to fit her size ....... she just foolin around.........
im a very sporty person, what made me get the note is when during the summer i will be jogging alot and riding my bike.. i figured this wouldn't be possible so i got the note 3. However if someone here can convince me that can happen without a problem i may be switching over because i love large screens =)
I've had both and I prefer the xperia ultra. I watch a lot of media on my phone so I went with the bigger screen. Not a fan if touchwiz either having the gpe ROM for the ultra was another reason. The only thing is don't expect to take it to the gym or anything.

Well, I skate a lot as I play hockey and I got a tiny LG Thrill 3D phone (just wanted a $ 50 cheapo) for the Ice Rink because the Ultra is too big but to be honest, even the Note 2 was hard to deal with when skating because I was compromising my crossovers etc since I had the phone in my front pocket.
But is I was jogging or on a bike, I would think it is easier to manage as you got more places where to keep it without thinking that if you slip like on the ice you can destroy it.
Not sure man but I would go back to Xperia in my very biased opinion
