Samsung Galaxy S5 mini to have suggested retail price of €479 ($650)
Samsung officially unveiled the Galaxy S5 mini today, it’s latest attempt to cash in on the success of its newest Galaxy S flagship. As is usual with official announcements, no pricing for the device was mentioned, so we did a little digging to find out. According to our source, the Galaxy S5 mini will have a suggested retail price of €479, which comes to around $650. That’s quite high, something we were expecting, but keep in mind that suggested retail prices can always change when a device actually becomes available for purchase, though we’re guessing the Galaxy S5 mini won’t be the most affordable mini smartphone around, at least in the initial few weeks after launch.
The Galaxy S5 mini sports a 4.5-inch HD Super AMOLED display, a quad-core 1.4GHz processor, 1.5GB of RAM, an 8-megapixel rear camera, 2.1-megapixel front-facing camera, 16GB of internal storage and a microSD slot, fingerprint and heart rate sensors, and a 2,100 mAh battery. It runs Android 4.4 KitKat with the latest iteration of Samsung’s TouchWiz UX, with features such as Ultra Power Saving Mode and Kids Mode, and will go on sale from early July.

I don’t understand, why Samsung doesn’t bring a Mini version with the same specs as the “big” one. And the price for the mini is more than too much. I’m sure, Samsung will loose and loose more and more customer. I have the Tab 1 + 2, I 9100 and I 9300, USB dongle and Samsung TV. But if they are not able to hear, what the market like is, Apple would be open to make the business!
That’s a joke? 349 nexus 5 xiaomi mi3. Amazing. The begin of the end
The price should be half of the original Galaxy S5, and I can bet it will sell out worldwide if Samsung go along with that…
Guess this could be a S3 replacement?
lower specs than Galaxy S3 LTE but still will get 4.4. typical Sammy
S3 LTE will get KitKat, it’s just not out yet.
Thats a ripoff. Xperia z1 compact anyone?
