I was just showing someone my Galaxy S4 the other day and since it has almost completely replaced my tablet I have had some interest in the Samsung Galaxy Mega, although it might just be too big.
The Galaxy Mega consists of a 5.8-inch model and a 6.3-inch version, but Samsung is only bringing its 6.3-inch model to US at this time. AT&T, Sprint and U.S Cellular will get the phone first but T-Mobile and Verizon users will have to wait a bit longer.
There are some shortcomings to consider like a 720p display but it should be sufficient given its size. Pricing is not a sure thing either but SlashGear seems to think that you will be looking at around $700 off contract and $200-300 on contract.
Don't forget, you don't need to like the Mega variants, you have the 5 inch Galaxy S4 and don't forget the Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini, if mini is your thing.
Update: AT&T now says you can have it Friday. Cost is $24 per month with AT&T Next or $149.99 with a two-year agreement. Sprint says "later this year".
