Samsung makes a mistake but not putting an FM radio, not everybody has unlimited wifi data, plus wifi drains your battery faster. we need an Fm radio for local stations. sometimes u r in the mood for some news or even a sport event sometimes for music and with FM radio u don't need to worry about copying music , copyrights , storage , etc FM radio is very useful, even 4 those with unlimited data sometimes coverage is bad... or missing . fm radio saves u from those problems

For those who live in India...
Guys if u want to purchase a phone under 25k-30k then this is d correct device or u can say this device is an upgrade over galaxy s3 neo i9300i....
but those who want to purchase samsung galaxy s4 snapdragon version will have to purchase it from outside india like singapore,malaysia,phillipines etc.
All these 3 devices have snapdragon 400 chip except that s4 (i9505) lte version has snapdragon 600 chip outside india ...
so, s5 mini dual sm-g800h is best for customers who like samsung and lives only in india....
samsung has released kitkat firmware for s5 mini sm-g800h on samsung_updates.com
so stop complaining abt these devices as these devices just need aluminium body with good specs which should be stable...

Hi to all I have to say this phone has been long coming but that it is now available from quite a few places like just now found out that handtech UK have the black and the white versions in stock for £371.99 you will have to wait for the gold and blue version though.
As for myself I am still waiting for it to be available in dubai as I get most of my phones from there as they are a lot cheaper to buy I hope you lot enjoy your phones.

I think that phone is only a waste of money I mean you spend almost 343 pounds for an 8 mp camera a not even good CPU and the shitting part of the story is it doesn't even have the battery timing as compared to the g2 mini come on Samsung that phone released in February you should really go and check out the market

Wait...you mean Snapdragon 400 Adreno 305 for £389.95 ?
So essentially a bumped up camera and expandable memory costs you this much over a Moto G
Why are companies still spamming the Snapdragon 400 chip when better ones like the Snapdragon 600 are available ?

I got s4, the best, except the size I am happy everything. But samsung could release equal to upcoming iPhone 6.with 10 megapixcel camera, 4.7 inch screen and specs of s5 above features compared to price of iPhone this boy will sell well and Android people love it much.

And I'll still get updates for a year or so on the S4 by which time who knows what else is out there.

Its got a bigger, 1080p screen, more powerful chipset with more RAM, a better rear camera and both the s5 mini as well as the s4 run android 4.4 kitkat. S4 may or may not get an update to the upcoming android L version, but the s5 mini will. So go for s5 mini only if waterproofing and updates are very important to you.

Guys my dliemma is this, buy the one year old full size S4 or the brand new S5 Mini? I prefer the size of the S5 Mini but for my money the full size S4 is a much better spec, though older, phone. What do you think is best? New lower spec, or older better spec? thanks.

Ok, so the S5 mini manual says it has a notification light (yaaay) but the dumb asses have removed the FM radio. Why Samsung, WHYYYY? Is it too much to ask to include both a notification LED *and* an FM radio?
Forget this load of crap, if you want a premium small handset, the Sony Xperia Z1 Compact is still the only choice. Another epic fail by Samsung.

The specs are okay exept the chipset.
Snapdragon 400 and adreno 305 is old. Must be snapdragon 600 with 320 to make more poweful :)
And it should have smart features(eg. Multi window) and fm radio :)

I imagine that because they're using this outdated SoC, this phone is quite cheap for them to produce.
