    We should stop starting fanboy wars and concentrate more on the subject perhaps?

            Overpriced, overpriced, overpriced.

            The LTE version (the only version which supports 42Mbps 3G) still can't be found for less than $400 US, when it should be somewhere in the $250 range.

            The comparable LG Optimus F3 sells for $200. Why pay twice as much for the incremental advantages of the S4 mini?

The Lumia 1020 is made from high-grade polycarbonate plastic which is both fingerprint and dust-resistant. No other non-Nokia phone comes close in build quality.

                        S4 mini has good specs but it's not optimized properly by Zamzung. Dual-core 1.7 GHz Krait and 1,5Ghz Ram should work way better. Then again , when S4 released had many many lag problems.

                          OEMs should stop overpricing minis, otherwise flops like s4 mini, one mini and 5Cs will not get market.

I do not have any Samsung devices but I think they did very well with their latest phones and innovations. However commenting about these special mini versions Samsung is really trying to fool their customers. In fact by being unable to offer high end specifications on such a size (around 4 inches) Samsung is showing its limits. I really think the xperia Z1f is the only device that can offer such a high-end device experience on a compact size, sadly Sony is helping Samsung a lot by keeping it a japanese only version. However I agree with the user pointing to the battery capacity. This could be a big problem with the Z1f. Let's see what happen in the battery industry soon. I see this is the key point to really enjoy a smartphone the way it should be without having to live next to a power outlet. Have a nice day to all of you.

                                    i planned to buy this but,in here(malaysia),s4 mini cost 361 usd,while s3 and nexus 4 cost 342usd,i can't see why i should choose it over the other.
                                    htc one mini cost even ridiculous at 503 usd,i can buy note 2 or z/zl/zr with that money.
                                    manufacturer should give us the same spec on par with s3/nexus4's to make it worth our money.

                                        The 1020 suppose great in camera but big suffer in white balance, so it is not that great overall. The material quality look even cheaper than Note 3, holding it like holding toy. That yellow color is OMG Toy!

                                        Don't forget the not so popular and boring Windows Phone OS.
