Samsung Galaxy S4 mini review: Little droid that could

16 July 2013
In Samsung's playbook, a mini version of the top smartphone is typically the first new addition to a flagship's fleet. Sticking close to a proven formula, the Galaxy S4 mini is a downsized and down-priced edition...

                      gigi, 04 Aug 2013amen to thatThe fella complaint so much that no this no that no everything but in another post he said he owns it. What does it show? Either he is STUPID to buy it or he is a big bluff just out to hammer Samsung.

                          Had my S4 mini for 2 months and loved it until a small drop cracked the screen with the orginal Samsung Protective cover on. Now warranty won't repair it it is too expensive too fix. If its too expensive to fix I am afraid i might drop it again and breaks...maybe rather spend the money on something else. Im really disappointed at how easily the screen cracked it only dropped gently at a hight of about 50cm off my lap while sitting and the corner of the phone hit the ground first, I would at least expect the protective cover to absorb this kind of shock.

                              Everybody likes to despise the iPhone 5C for being too expensive but this phone is the king of overpriced phones, end of story, at least in Singapore ($SGD).

                              For the mere sake of saving $100 over the $680 S4 Active, you lose 3/4 the pixels, 2 cores, far worse GPU, 8GB flash, waterproofing and worse ROM update schedules.

                              For the love of god even the S3 LTE is $170 cheaper while being better in every way except dimensions. If you like blowing good money on bad this is the phone to get.

                                  I have all three S3, S4 and S4 mini. With both S3 and S4 come with Exynos processor leaving S4 mini with Snapdragon.
                                  Of all the three, I must say S4 mini is best in terms of day to day basis operation and most of all battery life.
                                  Worst for both S3 and S4 when it comes to operating camera, damn slow to open and capture pix.

                                    Does this phone have a lot of features ? And can download app world and lots of things? Is it better than a blackberry?

                                        I hope this is way better
