Samsung Galaxy W is a 7 inch phone that will cover your face , Literally



Phones are getting massive ,a year ago , the standard screensize was 5" but this year it has increased to a jaw dropping 5.5" ...flagship phones push into the phablet range which was previously occupied by oversize phones such as the Samsung Galaxy Note series making life hard for people who have tight pockets , small hands or just don't want to lug a mini tablet around. But now , Samsung has pushed beyond that limit by introducing a purpose built phone at 7". Meet the Galaxy W , the phone is basically a oversize phablet . the Galaxy W , like all other galaxies out there has the usual Samsung design language which is now expanded to fit a 720p resolution display which is of a 16:9 aspect ratio . the phone has a 1.2Ghz quadcore processor ,1GB of ram , and 16GB of internal storage ,which is expandable via MicroSd cars . The faux leather back is removable and it accommodates a 3200mAh battery . The phone features a LTE version and it has Android 4.3 out of the box . the cameras on the phone are said to be 8mp for the rear and 2mp for the front . The phone costs $487 in South Korea right now , The phone will hit other countries where it might be a hit or miss because holding something the size of a tablet on your face is surely going to be embarrassing as demonstrated by the guy holding the phone in this stock photo we got .

We were under the impression that HTC will further invest in its One brand and not budge to carrier demands anymore when it comes to changing the name of the product – in the U.S., AT&T, Sprint and T-Mobile are going to sell it as the HTC One. But it looks like things aren’t necessarily so, and no, it’s not Verizon that’s going to get its way selling the One as the Droid DNA Plus, as it was recently rumored.
