28 November 2012
Design and software experience coming straight from the most successful droid of all times, packed in a shell that's far easier to pocket. Now, who wouldn't want some of that? The Samsung Galaxy S III mini is the company's most premium compact Android smartphone and is here to prove...

      Like the reviewer said, this is basically a Galaxy S Advance feature set with the SIII looks but way more expensive. Personally I have the Galaxy S Advance and it's really a great smartphone for the money. Android JB is also a planned update so you can have the best of both worlds. Exterior design may be less appealing for some but it's enough for most.

        A guileful attempt by Samsung to cash in on Galaxy S III's success. Very lame, at least given its price tag.

          I think this model is quite good, but there must be some mistakes in pricing,,, samsung galaxy s advance is very much better than galaxy s3 mini in many aspects... and it is cheaper than s3 mini.

          that is why samsung phased out Samsung Galaxy S Advance,, to give way to this galaxy s3 mini...
          I think Samsung should do something right about this... why should users bite this model,, where in,, SAMSUNG GALAXY S IV is on its way also early next year, thanks for this site,, i hope Samsung should know our side. peace

            I thought this phone was a pathetic attempt from Samsung to make money, but this seams like a decent phone.

                it is right now for 380$ in Lebanon after 2 days of its launch , it was for 400$ and directly dropped to 380!! so it might be very cheap soonlY! but it is really good with good screen ui os version updates performance and everything!except 1080p video recording however 720 is just good enough!
