Samsung Galaxy S III Mini Now Official

The 4-inch display on the Mini is a Super AMOLED screen with 800×480 WVGA resolution. This should be good enough, but not as good as the display on the Galaxy S III. The Mini also packs a 5-megapixel camera that takes 720p videos, a VGA front-facing camera, NFC capability, and a host of connectivity options that include 802.11a/b/g/n WiFi, GPS, GLONASS and Bluetooth 4.0.

The Samsung Galaxy S III Mini will run Android 4.1 Jelly Bean with TouchWiz UI on top. The phone will also feature most of the software features found on the bigger Galaxy S III like S Voice, Smart Stay and S Beam. Pricing and availability are not yet known.
