Samsung Reveals the Galaxy S4 Mini

May 30, 2013, 7:05 AM by Eric M. Zeman

Samsung today announced a smaller version of its flagship device, the Galaxy S4 Mini. The Mini swaps out the S4's 5-inch FHD display for a qHD 4.3-inch display; it drops the 13-megapixel camera down to 8 megapixels; and changes out the quad-core processor in favor of a 1.7GHz dual-core processor. The user-facing camera rates 1.9 megapixels and the Mini includes many of the same imaging features found in its larger stablemate, including Sound & Shot, Story Album, and Best Face. The Mini also carries over the GS4's multitude of apps, such as S Translator, S Health, WatchOn, Samsung Hub, and others. The Galaxy S4 Mini has 8GB of internal memory (5GB accessible by users), 1.5GB of RAM, and supports microSD cards up to 64GB. It includes GPS and GLONASS, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 4.0, and an IR blaster for the remote control app. The device comes in several wireless configurations, including 3G only, and 3G with LTE 4G, depending on the region. The Galaxy S4 Mini runs Android 4.2.2 and will be available in black and white. Retail availability depends on the market.

Stupid

Won't make it to the states. Just sell the damn S3 at a lower price point. Who the hell wants qHD and a 4.3" screen? Doesn't make any sense unless you're selling for really cheap. Unless this is free or $49 with a contract customers will not want to be bothered. I think it'll probably fare better in a market like India or something honestly.
