Wow, 107g, 1.5-2GB RAM, IR Blaster , LTE, 1900mAh battery and to top it off, Android4.2.2 out-the-box while other manufacturers are still pushing out flagships on 4.1.2? Great work by Samsung and on top of that the TouchWiz features such as Multi Window Multitasking, Multi item Clipboard, Samsung Hub, Samsung Link etc... It's one hell of a package! If this had a HD720P display and Exynos 5 Dual like the Nexus10, it would've been perfect, but its a great package as is, it could be a threat to the big GS4 as the iPad Mini is to the iPad though.
I wonder if it has the same super sensitive display as GS4 and Gesture sensor? If so, it's exactly what Samsung need to combat the onslaught of mid to low end Nokia Lumias, the possible iPhone Mini and the low end Chinese phones from ZTE, Huawei, Lenovo etc...

Hmmm,maybe,maybe not. Price wise this will be alot more expensive than Nokia mid range or lower end Lumia's. The GS3 Mini was way over priced when released

Hmmm... Looks like I've finally found a replacement for my aging 3GS.

Posted by lazeeboy

iPhone3GS is probably the best supported phone of all time, we've still got one in the house somewhere running iOS6.1, and it runs pretty well, does have the odd stutter and lag here and there though. I think the 3GS's road ends at 6.1.3 though, maybe it will get iOS7, MAYBE, but it has had an excellent run, I wish Apple would bring back its design though, the curved back and rounded edges make it the best iOS device in terms of ergonomics.

Lol I might get a secondhand 3GS or iPhone 4 for my HiFi once I've got my new iPhone
And sell my 4S Cos apple have changed the connectors on there new phones and lol
I read that apple will be launching a iPhone mini before there 5S interested to see if this
Is true or what

The only complain I have with Samsung is it’s the same old design. I wish Samsung could come up with new design in market.
Posted by Miss UK
Lol Samsung have only had the 3 and 4 look the same
So far including the larger Note device
Perhaps they will do a Apple and change there design in the 3rd year
Posted by Bonovox
No,Samsung's designs have been same for ages now. You only gotta look at GSM Arena Samsung phones section to see that. The odd one or two have differed but not by much

Ok thanks for that Bonovox you can tell I don't follow them so
Posted by Bonovox
GS4 Mini is way over priced for a dual core and it's specs. Some places selling it over £400
Posted by Miss UK
I wouldn't bother buying it bonovox
Just get the SG4 if you really need to
Posted by Bonovox
I've never thought about buying the Mini

Apparently this isn't selling so well. Probably because it's a dumbed down version of the S4 with poorer specs and not a shrunken S4.
The Xperia Z1 f shows how it should be done.

^Dumb down specs and premium price.

ZR already wiped the floor with it, Z1f is a completely different beast and I personally think it's absurd to even say Z1f is "competing" with the Samsung and HTC minis
TBH, S4 mini would fare better against the other overpriced product: 5c
