Samsung I8190 Galaxy S III mini

I was surprised to hear that the most popular Samsung Galaxy S3 smartphone has now got its younger cousin. Samsung has globally released the Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini, almost identical to the Galaxy S III; only save for the smaller screen. Apparently this device is for users who don’t love bigger screens like what we have on the Samsung Galaxy S III and the Note series. Galaxy S III mini took the river stone design first seen on the Galaxy S III and taken over to several other devices like the Galaxy S Duos, the Galaxy Note II Galaxy Chat among others.


And that’s how the device came to be launched on 4 inch screen, smaller than the Galaxy S III and the same size as the first Galaxy. Galaxy S III also comes with some of the features experienced on the Galaxy S III, these being Smart Stay that works with the front camera to prevent screen time-out when using the phone, S Beam which is Samsung’s iteration of Android Beam, Buddy photo share, Direct call, Smart Alert and S Voice for voice command.
