Will Samsung announce a Galaxy S III Mini on October 11th?
The company has issued invites to a press event in Frankfurt for next
Thursday, with a byline that reads: “Something big can be small and
something small can be big.” Rumours of a smaller, less powerful Galaxy S
III have persisted since the device’s announcement in May. Samsung
usually takes its flagship design and tweaks it a little for the middle-
and entry-level markets; for example, the Galaxy Y and Galaxy R were
offshoots of the Galaxy S II.
The Galaxy S III Mini, which it so expected to be called, will
feature a dual-core processor, a 4-inch WVGA (800×480) display, a 5MP
camera, and will come with Android 4.1 Jelly Bean out of the box. Other
than those proposed specs, we don’t know what the device will look like,
though we’d expect, based on the larger Galaxy Note 2, to have traces
of Samsung’s popular Android flagship. Pity the device isn’t more
powerful considering the market for smaller devices, but we’ll have to
wait until the 11th for more details.
