Samsung to unveil Galaxy S III 'Mini' next week? Samsung is making a major announcement next week, and the general consensus is the company will release the so-called Galaxy S III 'Mini.'
The event will take place in Germany, and the Korean giant has sent out invites with hints as to what they are unveiling.

In the invite, the Galaxy S logo is found in the background and the title directly translates to "So big can be small, and small can be big." Additionally it says "On 11.10.2012 comes a small sensation out of [something] really big."

These hints have led most to believe the "Mini" is coming, as rumored.

The rumored device will have a 4-inch display with 480x800 display, a dual-core Snapdragon, 5MP camera and Android Jelly Bean.



At an undoubtedly a cheaper price tag than its older brother, the mid-range device could be another hit.

how exciting can a mid-level phone be. I want a phone with a good projector on it at any size.

specs suck. Just call it what it is. A Galaxy S II revamp.

I don't think a quad core system sucks for a tablet so what are you smoking?

Well that's the goal. Apple makes the most money, Samsung is striving to make the most money too.

Pretty much. I think they're feeling left out and want some of that share that Apple ripped out of them from that lawsuit, but then again, that's just my opinion of this outcome...
