Tcool, 06 Jul 2014Hello! This is 2014, who needs radio in a 4G/3G smartphone?... moreBuilt in radio is not that big of an expense to install.... Try standing on a lake fishing with hardly and service on ur phone and u want to listen to the radio. U CAN'T ..... But my iPod mini has a radio on it and it works just fine. Now I have to carry two devices with me. That sucks. If I'm at work and my phone have a fm radio, I would be happier. The population in the world is 7.046 billion. So when u say only 1percent would use the radio that's a lot of people.

AnonD-273829, 06 Jul 2014so you mean you wont buy iphone 5s and will go for iphone 4... moreWell not really. I would go for iPhone 5 over iPhone 4 because Apple puts tons of improvement in the new iPhone. In this case, Samsung only improve some parts in the S5 mini and somehow downgrade some parts. So basically I would go for the S4 mini. I don't really care about the OS update. In 3 to 4 years time I still would have to buy a new phone anyway.

paulmurza, 06 Jul 2014You are misleading people, but I hope you are not that evil... moreYes I know that Apple iOS is a locked system. There isn't much you can customize in an iPhone. Not to mention I would own an Android but not a Samsung. A few years back Samsung was the best but now naah. It's better to go for other brands. Samsung's not worth it.

Anonymous, 06 Jul 2014You're wrong. The IPS LCD screen is much better than any Am... moreit seems that u still have the old idea about the over saturated colors of the super amoled screen,samsung has improved the color accuracy dramatically and the latest super amoled screen has the most accurate colors in the market.
sony stupidly puts obligatory plastic screen over the glass screen in its phones.
the heart rate monitor is some what a gimmicky feature but its presence in any phone is not a bad thing.(i prefer the fm radio over the HR sensor)
the fingerprint sensor is an excellent feature,instead of typing a password or drawing a pattern to unlock the phone just swipe your finger ,just one step.
most of samsung phones has the fm radio but the latest high end phones from samsung came without this feature only because samsung is greedy it wants us to use its internet radio app and pay for streaming and removing the adds.

The fingerprint sensor and heart rate monitor are just gimmicky features. Unnecessary and useless.
It's true that Samsung phones have better camera. Plus replaceable battery. But unfortunately they don't have FM Radio.

Internet radio gives you more choices of radio stations from all over the world. Better FM radio stations are available in internet radio but not available in built-in radio.
You like limitations, limitation of radio stations to choose from and limitation to move around due to the messy headset wires.
Wahahaha!

read my post again and don't add things i didn't say.
i said millions listen to fm radio in their "cars".
and what u r calling it dangling headsets is still the most common way to listen to your music,watch movies,listen to fm radio,and of course calling.
ps:the wired headsets comes free with phones and they are used by millions.

I'm not depending the lack of radio, what I mean is why would deprive yourself of a good smartphone just because of the radio?

i don't want to pay for the web radio it does not eat my money only but also eats the battery.
i always listen to my local fm radio channels in my car as millions of people do in 2014 and for freee,and when i step out of the car and i want to continue listening to my programs i will be happy if my phone will allow me to do so quickly ,easily and for freeeeeee.
please stop defending the wrong choices,that is what killed nokia.

What negative point you are talking about?
Internet radio is the best.
And don't say what if you don't have internet coverage or data plan is expensive because my answer is, you don't need a 4G/3G phone if that is the case.
Buy a 2G phone with built-in radio.
Built-in radio is out,
Internet radio is in!
By the way, free WiFis are almost everywhere except the mountains, forests and rice fields. LOL!

AnonD-273829, 06 Jul 2014what is your reason for saying that? its better than z10 bu... morethank u for the question.
the s5 mini has almost equal dimensions to xperia compact but still it has larger screen and it is lighter in weight.
the s5 mini has the much better super amoled screen and gorrila glass while xperia has regular IPS LCD with obligatory scratchable shatter proof plastic
cover over the glass.
the s5 mini has fingerprint sensor ,heart rate monitor and infra red port.
the 20mp camera of the xperia compact is only a marketing gimmick ,the real life performance is horrible for 20 mp camera,the s4 mini produces better images,use gsmarena photo comparison tool to confirm this.
and we don't forget the camera manufacturing flow of the xperia ... the flash bleed
the xperia compact has better processor and larger ram but s5 mini will perform well in most of the normal situations.
the s5 mini has removable battery.
the xperia compact loud speaker performance is below average.
we still waiting for the fm radio ,if samsung decided to remove the fm radio like what happened to the galaxy s5 then it will be a negative point for the s5 mini.
the design and the UI are personal preference.
