Samsung recently announced a scaled-down version of its Galaxy S4 smartphone. The Galaxy S4 mini is equipped with a 4.3-inch qHD display, a 1.7GHz dual-core processor and an 8-megapixel rear camera. The handset also includes 8GB of internal storage, 1.5GB of RAM, a microSD slot, a 1,900 mAh battery and the company’s TouchWiz user interface atop Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean. A Samsung spokesperson previously said that availability and pricing was “still up in the air,” however a variety of European retailers have begun to list the device online. Unlocked Mobiles will begin selling a SIM-free version of the Galaxy S4 mini on June 29th for £365, roughly $560, while Handtec is offering the phone for £390, roughly $600. Interestingly enough, Phones4U has priced the device £20 more than last year’s better-equipped Galaxy S III, listing the unlocked Galaxy S4 mini for £420, or roughly $646.
