A supergiant planet is a planet that is more massive than the largest cold mass, but less massive than a brown dwarf. These cold masses (not stars) are smaller in volume than the largest cold mass. All supergiant planets are also superjovian, meaning they are Superjupiters (more massive than Jupiter). Jupiter itself is close to having the mass of the largest cold mass.
