What happened to the Sony xperia z ultra

**The Galaxy Mega is NOT "basically the Galaxy S4"... unless I am mistaken, it is far closer internally to the Galaxy S3.  Sure it looks more like the S4, but that doesn't matter nearly as much as internals.**

Oh how times have changed. In 2022, the 6.1” iPhone 13 is considered small. But it’s only a little smaller then the Galaxy Mega.

What about the lg optimus g pro
Snapdragon 600 1.7 ghz quad core soc
1920x1080 full hd IPS+ display 401ppi
13 MP camera
Ir blaster

I think it deserves a spot

I'd go with the Lumia 1520 as its Stylish, Colourful, Bold, Vibrant and Powerful !

Please make an updated list of this as per July 2015. Thanks! 😉

I went with the Mega from a 4S. It was affordable for me at the time. I'm more then happy with it then with my old 4S.

Cool Video. The Mega wins the shock value for sure lol

[fedism]

I agree on xperia being on there. I also would have like to have heard the screen size on the HTC max.

[jameshoe]

LG G2 is a phablet? HTC One Max beat down Nokia Lumia 1520? Sony flagship Z Ultra isn't on the list? Funniest Video in the world!

[petargolubovic]

thumbs up if you think that the z ultra and the g flex should have been on the countdown

[Shockwaver]

I was like oh okay, and the Xperia Z Ultra is 1st.. but nope it's the Galaxy Note..

[joetipps]

how does the Sony Xperia Z ultra compare to these?

[SonyGameTester]

I agree I'm a proud owner of Sony Xperia Z Ultra, with 6.4 1080p display :)

[andreimanila]

Had the Note 3 for a week. Hated it lol. Nexus 5 for life.

[sgodsellify]

The note 3 is the true phablet and the only one with a pen an software that deserves to be in the category all by itself. Well it did coin the phrase phablet.

[DacLMK]

2022 and it's hard to find a phone below 5.5" these days. Mine is 6.3" and it doesn't feel like the Mega at all thanks to the tall aspect ratio and the shrunken bezels.

[kostakis]

I'm super satisfied with my League shark 1. Midrange beast of a machine

[nickL]

The LG Optimus G Pro is a better phablet than all of these except the Note 3. How did it not make the list?

[aravindmani]

It's worth NOTEing that the htc one max has a 3300 milli amp hour battery, compared to the 3200 on the note
