Samsung’s gigantic Galaxy View is now available in Malaysia at RM2,699

If you’re looking for a tablet to replace your TV, the Samsung Galaxy View is now available in Malaysia. At 18.4 inches, this dwarfs the iPad Pro and it even comes with a curve stand at the back. For Malaysia, we are getting the WiFi only model and it is priced at RM2,699. Yup, that’s the same price as a brand new Galaxy Note 5.

To recap on the specs, the Galaxy View gets a wide screen 18.4″ screen pushing Full HD resolution in a 16:9 aspect ratio. Powering the device is a 1.6GHz Octa-Core processor that’s mated to 2GB RAM and it has 32GB of on-board storage. To load up more content, you can expand more storage with its microSD slot. In case you need to use the Galaxy View while on the move, it gets a 5,700mAh battery that’s rated for up to 8 hours of use.

As part of its early promo, Samsung Malaysia is also giving away a free bag worth RM199 as shown above. With a big screen, the Galaxy View is positioned as an entertainment hub for you to watch your iFlix and Netflix content. We’re not sure if anyone would spend more for a larger tablet but it is definitely cheaper than getting a 32GB iPad Pro WiFi model (RM3,599).
