The Samsung Galaxy S III Mini gives you a powerful smartphone in a super portable shape. With the same look as the S III it's stylish and modern, while the latest software and powerful performance means it'll handle anything you want.

Elegant natural design.

Inspired by the beauty and simplicity of nature, the Samsung Galaxy S III Mini features a minimal, elegant and organic look, while its comfortable feel and intuitive usability are designed for ease of use.

4" touchscreen for a smaller, easier to use shape.

The touchscreen on the Samsung Galaxy S III Mini is a great blend of viewing area and portability. At 4" you can reach every corner of the screen with your thumb for easy one handed use, but it's still a great size for looking at the news on the BBC website, streaming videos on YouTube or looking at your photos from last night. Built using Super AMOLED technology, the screen not only gives vividly bright colours, but also gives better battery life than other technologies.

Mini in size, but not on power.

Inside the Samsung Galaxy S III Mini is a 1GHz dual core processor and 1GB RAM. This enables the S III Mini to handle any apps you want from the app store, stream HD video content and handle multiple tasks at once. There's also HSPA wireless internet technology, which is a faster version of 3G. This means that your internet connection when on the move is faster and more reliable, letting you get on with whatever you want online.

Smart thinking.

The Samsung Galaxy S III Mini is designed to be practical for everyday use. Smart Stay recognises when you're looking at it and maintains a bright display until you look away so you can keep reading or browsing. Best Photo takes a fast burst of eight photos so you can choose your favourite. Smart Alert even gives a brief vibrating nudge to notify you of messages and missed calls you may have missed when you pick it up.

Stylishly social.

A range of great services make it easier to stay closer to friends. The 5MP camera gives you sharp and clear photography whenever you need and Social Tag can then link the faces in photos to people's social media streams, so you'll see your friends' current status when viewing their picture. Buddy Photo Share recognises a friend's face in a photo, so you can share it with them instantly while Samsung's ChatON messaging service makes it possible to chat with friends using all kinds of devices all over the world.

Powered by Android 4.1 Jelly Bean.

The software that runs on the Samsung Galaxy S III Mini is Android 4.1 Jelly Bean. This lets you control the look of your S III Mini, download and install a choice of over 650,000 apps from the Google Play Store and contains all the latest features. There's Google Now that automatically updates you with personalised sports news and travel updates, offline voice typing, perfect for when you're hands are busy, and widgets on the homescreen that'll resize and move around to make space for new ones.

Free content & apps worth £15.
When you buy a Samsung Galaxy S III mini. You’ll get £15 worth of apps, games or music, just select what you’d like from Samsung Apps. And redemption takes seconds online! Ts&Cs apply.*

If you're looking for a high performance smartphone with a modern design that's full of the latest features and is easier to handle thanks to a more manageable 4" touchscreen, the Samsung Galaxy S III Mini is a great smartphone.
