In April, Samsung announced their biggest smartphone yet, the 6.3 inch Galaxy Mega, blowing away the size of the display for the previous 5.5 inch Galaxy Note II. While the Android phablet launched in a number of countries in Europe earlier this year, along with South Korea, it will finally reach the US later this month.
