We’re gonna need a bigger pocket!

There’s a strange bit of business going on with the design of cell phones. Bigger is better. That is, if you are talking about screen dimensions. If it’s thickness, bigger is bad. Which really doesn’t make that much sense. If you can fit a 6.3″ screen in your pocket, surely a couple more mm of thickness isn’t a big deal.

Yes, I said 6.3″. And that isn’t hyperbole for effect. I chose that number because Samsung has announced the Galaxy Mega 6.3 for release this month. That’s a 6.3″ screen. To put it in perspective, here’s what it looks like next to the iPhone 5.

Aye, caramba! Put the Mega in landscape mode and you might be able to type with all ten fingers. Along with that massive screen, the phone brings some other pretty nice features:

• Android 4.2.2
• Dual-core 1.7GHz proc
• 1.5GB RAM
• 8 megapixel camera
• Micro SD
• Huge 3200mAh battery
• Air View
• Split Window Multi-tasking
• TV Guide
• IR Blaster
