Samsung has finally announced the Galaxy S4 Mini, however, we suspect there will be other new smartphones to be unveiled at its upcoming June 20 event, include the Galaxy S4 Active and Galaxy S4 Zoom that we told you earlier.


Back to the Galaxy S4 Mini, it features a 4.3 inch qHD Super AMOLED display, measures 124.6 x 61.3 x 8.94 mm, and weighs 107 grams. Other features: Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean, Wi-Fi a/b/g/n, GPS with Glonass, Bluetooth 4.0, 1.9MP front-facing camera, 8MP rear camera, dual-core 1.7GHz processor, 1.5GB of RAM, and a 1,900m Ah battery.   One thing we don't really like is that it only has 8GB of internal memory.


Here's the quote from Samsung's press release


"We appreciate such unprecedented demands for the GALAXY S4 that we aimed to provide users with life companion for a fuller, richer and simpler life. And now, we want to give people more choices with GALAXY S4 mini, similar look & feel of GALAXY S4 for more compact and practical usages," declared JK Shin, CEO and President of IT & Mobile Communication Division at Samsung Electronics.
