Hi Guys,
I just finished reviewing the Galaxy Mega 6.3. I've used the Note and Note 2 as my daily driver for a about 1/2 a year each... hope someone finds this helpful...
I will also do an in-depth comparison of the Mega 6.3 /w the Galaxy Note 2 soon

Ashwin that was probably the best video review I've seen, well informed and well presented, thanks
I was starting to dither about buying one (reading too many specs on too many devices) but now I'm back on track.

Haha same, I m going to be soon on the market for a phone with a big screen (right now on N4), and which won't cost an arm after a trade-in.
Xperia Z looks great but it's so expensive! Maybe a next year buy ?
Anyway, only thing to see now is if there will be some developpement here on XDA so I ll be watching that particularly

Sounds good, got a few weeks to see it coming anyhow.
But it's important for me to be also able to have some XDA fun, if you catch my meaning
And I m not sure Lenovo get so much traction here?
The Lenovo seems to have a very small battery for a full HD screen phone?

Yep.
I m really looking for the big screen, so I think I ll stay away from the S4, although it's really for sure having a lot of exposure here.
Well, it'll come more slowly for the Mega, so that's why I m also considering the Note 2 (the Note 3 will be out of my price range for sure).

Greets!
They say it will have a dual-boot option (of course we allready have it )
Android vs ChromeOS, but of course we can use it for our own wishes
Don't think ChromeOs will boot on our phones.
Also it's said focus will be on tablets.

Wow google is so quick.I think phone manufacturers would skip official ics update and directly give the jellybeans update then.

lol no, peeps from ubislate came to my college and registered our names..
so ours is for sure
I don't see this new OS coming on smart phone. I have read anywhere that jelly bin is for tablets. And it suppose to be for that only as ICS is in very early stage they can not ship new OS for smart phone.

lol do you think the person buying a 20$ tab would have money to buy tabs and donate..
and anyway the govt is allowing this 35$ for 20$ as student discount so 1 tab per student..
I have seen the specs, it's not a superb tablet (just like the Yarvik Tab211 I use for reading)
But it's nice to play with and trying to get more out of it
Allready working on getting ICS/CM9 build for my Tab
damn u devs, always getting first hands on the best stuff..
which tab u got?
Brand new ROM leaked from a friend working for ARCHOS.
Been working on it for a few weeks to optimise it and fix a few bugs ARCHOS forgot.

And finally the download links here
It's working but it has some issues with wifi...
Thanks so awesome !

That is exactly what I think, since I got the Galaxy Note, I nearly don't use my 101IT anymore...
Well,
I replaced my Archos 70IT by an 16 GB ainol aurora with an IPS screen for 150 €, quite the same as 70b IT (310 g and thickness < 10 mm) but a better screen. And I have a fully operative Android 4.0.
I am a little bit upset not to have ICS on gen8, but I understand that Archos is focused on the next generations.
SNIFF :'(
You made me all happy, then boom.....sad day :'(

HTC One X looks and feels is really good, I don't mind touching it for the whole day even if I have no friends to call me, but overall specs isn't that impressive if compared to SIII, but SIII body and buttons and everything looks like mammy purse or ultra portable makeup case, or face with acne scar and it hurts me.. samsung.. you hurt me..
Anyway what's your opinion guys?

I don't want to upgrade my phone, but development gets interesting when there's a better device.. from my experience of being non-experience in world of technology, when there's a better device... A line has been drawn for older device, except for someone is a hardcore programmer....
Now.. talking about PS Vita... mmm.. now that's a device... now guys, let's buy vita, keeping our S2 and stop moving to other devices.

I am really pissed at Samsung for giving the i9300 1Gb RAM and the i9305 2Gb RAM.
I feel cheated. My S3 was my graduation gift and the big smartphone nerd that I am, I like to have the best. Then why the f*** did Samsung have to do this?
Also the Note 2 got 2Gb RAM. Hell I could've bought the Note 2! It's way better! Battery life and all! And dammit it sold forthe same pricetag!
I9300 lags horribly with the TouchWiz launcher and Samsung ROMs but the Note 2 and i9305 JUST DONT LAG!
What's done is done. I can't sell my S3 and buy a new phone now. I just want closure. WHY DID SAMSUNG HAVE TO CHEAT ME SO BAD?
P.S.: What are the differences between i9300 & i9305 except the LTE and 2Gigs?
*I HATE SAMSUNG*

Your question is "why did Samsung fail me so badly?"
I'm really not sure how you expect anyone to answer that.....hence.....words fail me
Now before you gird your loins and engage battle mode.....please ask yourself exactly what kind of response you are expecting?
Edit....by the way, Q belong in Q&A
Read this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1739030&page=2
They say i9305 has a dual-core. Well GSMArena specs say otherwise! http://m.gsmarena.com/samsung_i9305_galaxy_s_iii-5001.php
Regardless, the Korean S3 has both! Exynos Quad and 2GB RAM! Like the Note 2! F*** SAMSUNG!

Oh the usual, for a few days the forum will be full of indignant people throwing their dummies out of their prams, whilst the stoical old gits sit there and shrug in bemusement, all of which will end in loads of flame wars, annoyed people and the moderators having to mop up the resulting cesspool of hormones.

Well I spent the full price for it at the time, 570 euros and I regret doing that. Should've stuck with my Gnex until the N4 and then bought that.
1 Gb is not the problem. Crapwiz is. Install an AOSO Rom and see how good multitasking can be. On the other hand you can still despise Samsung for not releasing sources
is there a forum for the mega 6.3? cant find it if so..loL! picked one up a week ago and like to get started with rooting and all. surprised theres no forum yet on it.
