Its not going to cost me anything as I can sell the S3 for the price of the Mega sort of.
finding the S3 too small, but worried the Mega could be too big.
really want a 2.3ghz snapdragon 800 phone but they're too expensive

Nexus 5?
too small only 0.2" bigger than s3
want 5.5" +
But don't quote me on that
Have you considered a Note 2? Since the Note 3's arrival they've dropped in price and that will definitely fit the bill more than the Mega 6.3 if you want a bit more grunt.
I'd expect the 5.25" LG G2 to get cheaper too since the Nexus 5 turned up.
i was like you gagging for a massive screen, but imo and ive got very big hands, the mega is just a bit to big, note 3 would be perfect i reckon
plus the camera is not as good as the s3, its to hard to get a decent shot
what kills it for me is, you don't realize how much time your phone is used with one hand, and the mega is imposable to message with one hand, 6 inch should have been the max screen size
edit in fact the note 2 would be a better choice than the mega
as I know when you first get a phone, it takes a while to get used to the size, when I first got the S3 I thought it was too big initially
edit i must say its still a great phone, it looks like im knocking it, im not, but you should know after a while it gets a chore carrying it around
and ive got a case on it which believe it or not makes it feel quite bigger
just looked on amazon, 27th august i got it, so not quite 3 months
very similar prices
The screen, being LCD, is so much more natural looking, and better than the Note II, in my opinion. It's better in direct sunlight too, a thing that particularly annoyed me with the AMOLED screens on the Note II/S4's.
The battery power is way better than my Note II. The Note would last around 6/7 hours then I'd have to charge it, but the Mega lasts the whole day.
Yes it's big, but it still fits in my trouser/coat pocket fine and it is much lighter than the Note II. It looks very much like a bigger S4.
I won't be going back anytime soon.
I bought it from Amazon HERE. It's gone up £10 since I bought it, but it's worth the money.
Go for it
very tempting, note 2 or mega, very tough choice
