The device also comes with an 8MP rear-facing camera, as well as a 1.9MP HD front-facing one. Special camera features include Sound&Shot, which stores sounds and images together, Panorama Shot, which allows you to take a full view of what you are seeing, and Story Album, which automatically arranges photos in a smart format. Snaps taken by the Galaxy S4 Mini are automatically gathered and saved according to your timeline, geo-tagging information or specific event, to create a photo album.
Simon Stanford, vice president of IT & Mobile Division, Samsung Electronics UK & Ireland, commented: “Demand for the Galaxy S4 has been phenomenal since it launched in April and we hope to build on this success with the Galaxy S4 Mini. This new handset is the ideal smartphone companion for anyone who wants a compact device packed with innovation.”
While details of the availability of the Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini are yet to be announced, the firm has revealed that the device will come in a 4G LTE version, 3G version, and 3G Dual Sim version.
