What's New with the Upcoming Samsung Galaxy Mega 2; Release Date and Price; More on Specs and Other Important Features

Samsung is known to release new models of smartphones often, and the Samsung Galaxy Mega 2 is just one of the most anticipated smartphones due to be released this year.

The Samsung Galaxy Mega 2 specs include a 6.0 - inch, 720 x 1280 Super AMOLED display. Considering its size, the Galaxy Mega 2 is can be situated between the two previous versions of the original Samsung Galaxy Mega which boast a 5.8 - inch and 6.3 - inch.

Like its predecessors, it is every bit as mid - range with its 1.5 GB worth of Random - Access Memory (RAM) and its 1.4 GHz quad - core Exynos 4415 processor. It also has a 2800 mAh battery and the Thai version even comes with an 8 mega - pixel camera. The upcoming Chinese version, however, might reportedly get elevated up to a 13 MP.

As for its software, it is expected to run on an Android 4.4.3 KitKat OS. The rear camera will also be able to shoot Full HD videos and includes features like autofocus, face detection, touch focus and a flash. Other hardware specs include a compass, GPS, Bluetooth, an accelerometer, a light sensor, a gyroscope and, of course, Wi - Fi enabling connection.

The Samsung Galaxy Mega 2 is rumoured to come out in Berlin on September of this year through its unveiling at the IFA 2014 event. While much information when it comes to the Samsung Galaxy Mega 2 price is still all speculation, it is still expected that the new Galaxy Mega 2 will be cheaper than its big - screen Galaxy Note contemporaries. Approximately, the price tag may range from £300-400 on a SIM-free basis.
