It has been leaked enough recently that we all knew the S4 Mini was a reality but Samsung today announced its Galaxy S4 Mini officially, a smaller, less featured version of its hot-selling Android phone with a 4.3-inch screen.
The Mini model is lighter, at 3.8 ounces compared to 4.6 ounces for the S4, has a 1.7GHz dual-core processor instead of a 1.9GHz quad-core model, a battery is rated at 1,900mAh instead of 2,600 and an 8-megapixel camera to the S4's 13 megapixels.
"This new handset is the ideal smartphone companion for anyone who wants a compact device packed with innovation," said Simon Stanford, vice president of the IT and mobile division for Samsung Electronics UK & Ireland.
The phone comes with version 4.2.2 of the Android operating system, aka Jelly Bean. Samsung will sell a 4G LTE version, a 3G version, and 3G dual-SIM version, to handle various mobile network situations, the company said.
It will be available in black or white.
