Samsung Galaxy S III mini Review of Pros And Cons

Picture of the Samsung Galaxy S III mini, by Samsung

While this miniature version does not include features as impressive as the original Galaxy S III, it still has enough power to hold its own. It includes a 1GHz dual-core processor, a 1GB RAM, and 8GB or 16GB of internal memory. That being said, we wish Samsung did not systematically downgrade everything and at least retained some of the original features of the bigger S III, like its 8-megapixel and 1080 video recorder. Here, we only have a 5-megapixel camera and a 720p video camera.

On-paper Review rating:

Pros:

Larger onboard memory:

It boasts a hefty internal memory (16000MB/8000MB), but it may sometimes be more interesting to buy a phone with an included memory card instead, since the memory card can then be reused in a future cell phone.

Dual SIM cards:

It accepts two SIM cards, which lets you hop from one network to another if you own two SIM cards.

Special features:

It has these special features: Accelerometer, Digital Compass, Dual SIM cards, Proximity Sensor, Wi-Fi Direct

Cons:

Ostensibly no HDMI plug:

It's great that the Samsung Galaxy S III mini can record fancy 1280 x 720 videos, but we're surprised we didn't find any sign of the Galaxy S III mini sporting an HDMI port (which comes in handy to watch HD videos on your shiny HDTV without having to move them first to your computer).

Unknown weight:

It's disappointing that we were not able to find information about its weight.
