The rear-facing 8-megapixel camera comes with numerous shooting modes such as HDR (Rich Tone), Continuous Shot, Sports, Beauty Face, Shot & More, Virtual Tour, Sound & Shot, Night Mode and Panorama. Users can store additional music, photos and videos with up to 64 GB of expendable storage with an external microSD card. A 2,800mAh removable battery should allow the phone to run throughout the day on a single charge. The Galaxy Mega is powered by a Quad Core processor with 1.5GB of VRAM.

Design

The Galaxy Mega 2 measures 6.6 x 3.46 x 0.31 inches and it weighs at 7.1 ounces. The design resembles an enlarged Samsung Galaxy S5.
