Unlike the truly boring Sony Xperia J we checked out this week
The Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini’s got a bit of panache
It takes the same curved styling of the S3
And white hue to boot. It’s plastic
Yes
But somehow it seems stylish too.And it runs almost exactly the same software too
Samsung’s homescreen and navigation screens are colourful and easy to use
And you’ll find the same excellent Pop-U
Android 4.1 with Samsung TouchWiz UI

This is certainly not a "mini" version of the original Galaxy S3!
Compact size, Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, Similar look and feel to original
Low resolution screen compared to original, Downgraded camera, No word on AU price or release
The Samsung Galaxy S III mini is a downgraded version of the flagship Galaxy S III in both size and power. It will attempt to appeal to those who find flagship Android phones too big to handle but aren't necessarily interested in top-end specifications...
More manageable size than the S3, runs the latest version of Android out of the box, same great TouchWiz additions also available on the mini, and non-HD display is still excellent
Lacks the CPU kick of the normal S3, and user-accessible storage is almost half of the phone''s internal storage
Portability and pocketability, Thin and light weight, Great performance, Smooth glass makes it a breeze to use
Outdoor visibility of the display not up to the mark, Plastic build quality might put you off, Cameras are poor, RAM buckles under pressure,
The Galaxy S3 mini is a great little device. Is it just a smaller S3? No, it totally looks like a S3, but there are features and performance benefits you will miss if you are looking for a smaller S3. And yes, it is completely unique and stands on its ...
Abstract: A solid, shrunken down version of its bigger brother but we can't recommend the Mini over the cheaper and far superior Nexus 4The Samsung Galaxy S3 is sitting pretty at the top of Stuff's Top 10 Smartphone list thanks to its blazing fast quad-core process...
Is the Samsung I8190 a shrunk-down Galaxy S III? It vastly depends on your understanding of a mini version, but we believe that it isn't. It's more of a Galaxy S Advance repackaged in an Galaxy S III-styled body and with a tad extra RAM. It's not a bad ph...
IntroductionThe Samsung I8190 Galaxy S III mini is like a nostalgic return to the roots for the highly successful Galaxy S franchise. Quite similar to the original Galaxy S specs-wise, the new SIII mini aims to get as much of the Galaxy S III's personalit...

Great alternative to the S3, Good camera, Long lasting battery, Software has little compromise
about it:
We guess what keeps this an S3 is the software, while the hardware deserves to be called S3 Lite rather. We loved a part of the hardware and the software, but there are a few things that hold it back. It needs a larger screen for most people as typing rea...
Great feature set, Handy size, Decent battery life
Still comes with a lot of Samsung bloatware
I personally need a new phone, and I think my search is over Samsung's flagship phone, the Galaxy S Ill is a marvel of modern technology. It is the culmination all of the tech Samsung had developed from the very beginning. If there was anything that was a...
At just PhP 14,990, you can have your smaller version of the Galaxy S III. Of course it would set you back with lower specifications, but it will have no problems running standard applications. Just to further compare it with the contenders listed in the...
