| Note 2 not big enough? How about the Galaxy Mega? Samsung Galaxy Mega handsets with 5.8" and 6.3" screens coming - GSMArena.com news Quote:
The information comes from an inside source, who confirmed that two Galaxy Mega smartphones are in the works. The first is codenamed Galaxy Mega 5.8 with a model number GT-I9152. Obviously, we are talking about a handset with 5.8-inch display and the model number pointing to its dual-SIM nature.
More interestingly, the second one is carrying the codename Galaxy Mega 6.3, which hints at a 6.3-inch display - the same as the Galaxy Note III is rumored to pack. However, the model number GT-I9200 doesn't correspond with Samsung Galaxy Note naming convention Nxxxx (Galaxy Note II N7100, Galaxy Note N7000), so it will most likely lack S Pen functionality.
Everything should be revealed once those two phones get out of Samsung's factories. The Galaxy Mega 5.8 should do so around the end of May, start of June (week 22, as per SamMobile), while the Galaxy Mega 6.3 around mid-June (week 25).

EDIT: I'd love to have front facing stereo sound like my BB Playbook did.

I am not sure is making phones with bigger screen the way push technology forward. For my personal as long as the phone is big enough is good (Nexus 4 is pretty much the biggest phone I would use) ALL THE OTHER functions they added in now is nice but not very practical.
I would love them develope a phone that have longer battery life either by making the phone more power efficent or somehow make the battery the same size but packs more power. I will be great if we can have phones that can stand by for 3days and actual use of 16 to 18hours.

I agree, it is great to see Samsung is making phones with larger screen, I am expecting to the point I do not need to zoom in and out in desktop view, but their phones edge need to be slimmed down further.
The current note2 is too large, imo, I cant even tie my shoelaces with it in the pocket.

Honestly after moving from my iphone 4 to S3, the 4.8' is a much better size than I would have thought.

touch based phones need dead space.
also your pants are too tight. your balls need to breathe

Its officially announced. The Mega is coming...but likely not to North America. Posted via RS Mobile Quote:
The rumours at first seemed incongruous with Samsung’s apparently two-pronged approach, the Galaxy S and Galaxy Note, but today the company has taken the wraps off a new series, Galaxy Mega.
The Galaxy Mega 5.8 and 6.3 will each iterate on the company’s largest smartphone offerings, broaching the true line between smartphone and tablet. It’s also apparent, especially in the 5.8-inch version, that these will be low- to mid-range devices, focusing on users who don’t want to invest in two devices.
The Galaxy Mega 5.8 (seen above in white) comes with a 5.8-inch qHD display (960×540), making for a sparse 189.9ppi pixel density, a 1.4Ghz dual-core processor, 1.5GB RAM, a 2600mAh battery, an 8MP back camera and 1.9MP front camera. It will max out at 21Mbps HSPA+, too.
Its 6.3-inch (seen above in black) counterpart is equipped with a 720p display, making for a Nexus 7-like 233ppi pixel density, a 1.7Ghz dual-core processor, 1.5GB RAM, a 3200mAh battery, and the same 8/1.9MP camera combo. Unlike the 5.8-inch version, the larger Mega comes with LTE support. Both devices will have a removable battery and microSD slot for expandable storage.

I'll wait for Note 3. It'll be the ideal phone with highres screen/fast processor / lots of ram / not as massive.

Seriously, though... my S3 with an Otterbox case is about as much as my hands can handle. I'm not a big fan of needing to use both hands in order to do something as simple as changing songs to the next track or to even unlock it.
