Three's Ultrafast network is supported by DC-HSDPA technology and covers more than 80 per cent of the UK population, with 4G LTE rolling out later this year. This fantastic smartphone is also future-proofed so that when 4G arrives, Three customers will experience even faster speeds, at no extra cost.
Sylvia Chind, Head of Devices at Three said, "You can carry the Samsung Galaxy Mega like a phone, but use it as a tablet, thanks to the huge 6.3" screen which even has split screen capabilities. It is the perfect device for gaming or streaming YouTube ‘fail' videos on Three's Ultrafast network, wherever you are."
The Samsung Galaxy Mega also boasts powerful performance, equipped with a 1.7GHz dual core processor making it quick and easy to switch between apps. And the 8 megapixel camera can take stunning still pictures, but can also capture full HD video at 30 frames a second and be played back in the same quality. To support all of this power and performance the Galaxy Mega comes with a huge 3,200mAh battery capable of up to 700 hours of standby time.
