If the likes of the recent 5-inch devices, or the Galaxy Note 2 just aren’t quite big enough for you, then you may be interested in the Samsung Galaxy Mega. A colossal 6.3-inch smartphone, the Mega was announced back in April for launch in Europe and Russia sometime in May. We’re now seeing the first signs of UK availability for this monstrous device, and it can be yours in July, though the exact date is still unknown.
Retailer Clove Technology has started taking pre-orders for the Mega, and for £459.99 you get the 16GB version in either black or white. Other notable specs on the device include Android 4.2.2 and Samsung’s latest version of Touchwiz, a 1.7GHz dual-core CPU, a HD display, LTE, an 8MP rear camera, 1.5GB of RAM and a pretty sizeable 3200 mAh battery. You may also need large hands to use one.

Sometimes, an app annoyingly doesn’t allow you to disable its notifications in the app’s settings. Sometimes, an app even gives advertisements through the notifications, which is even more annoying. If you have Jelly Bean 4.1 or higher, you can fortunately disable almost any app’s notifications straight from the device settings. After the break are instructions on how you can get rid of the pesky alerts. 
The SwiftKey Android keyboard can now be purchased for a discounted price, but only for a limited time only. The app, which offers arguably one of the best third-party keyboards for Android, is now available for you to buy at a 50 percent discount. The keyboard will run you $1.99, £1.49 or €1.99, depending on your location. The offer is a limited one, so make sure you grab yours quickly. The blog post announcing the discount also talks about the app receiving a new update, which brings the SwiftKey Android keyboard to version 4.1. This is not a big update, like the one to version 4.0 was, but it still comes with some useful things. First of all, the new update comes with three new themes – Dusk (a blue theme with a yellow Flow trail on the keyboard), Regal (purple with a yellow trail) and Pitch (black, with a pink trail). The developers claim that the new themes use less pixels on the screen, thus eating less of your smartphone’s battery, something users had been asking for, according to the quoted blog post. The update also brings a lot of small, but very useful bug fixes. Here’s the entire change log, so you know exactly what’s been fixed.
