The Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini is a decent mid-range smartphone, and manages to outperform some of its high-end competition.

Nice design; great screen; smooth performance; excellent battery life; good camera; plentiful storage for all types of users

Casing can get grubby; Samsung's Touchwiz user interface can be overbearing

The Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini is what the HTC One Mini is to the HTC One – a smaller version of the Samsung Galaxy S4 . Dropping to a 4.3-inch display, the S4 Mini loses the quad-core power and Full 1080p HD display.

Bright; vibrant screen; Decent main camera; Smooth dual-core processor performance

Some lag for gaming; Pricey; considering the specs; Disappointing onboard storage

A cheaper, more compact Galaxy S4 with amazing battery life, but the S4 Mini doesn't stand out compared to the competition

phone is very good but when it comes to battery it is not even coming 24 hours to be exact it comes only 18hours without any usuage. while browsing or playing games battery is heating very much. so samsung plsss make a new update for battery issues plss...

The first thing you will notice about the Samsung Galaxy S 4 Mini is that it's not as miniature as you might expect. In fact, the device is around the same size as the iPhone 5, and in everyday terms we would not consider it a small smartphone.

Nice, scaled-down design; Decent camera; Great battery life; Very bright screen

Doesn't have a full HD; Only has a dual-core processor; Speakers aren't great

Samsung has taken the design style of its Galaxy S4 and placed it in a smaller shell to come up with the Galaxy S4 Mini . It's a good move for anyone who doesn't want a vastly-sized phone and has a smaller budget too.

Neat, compact design; Good camera; Impressive battery life; really bright display

Not full HD; Dual-core processor; Speakers don't impress
