It looks likely that Samsung is planning to launch the Samsung Galaxy S3
Mini next Thursday, October 11. The manufacturer’s German arm has sent
out invites to a special launch event promising “something small”.
The
invites, written in German, can be roughly translated as “something
small will be really big” followed by “get ready for a little
sensation.”
It reminds us a little of the phrase used to sell the Samsung Galaxy S3: “the next big thing is already here,” while last year's Samsung Galaxy Nexus was teased with the phrase “something big is coming.”
Add
in the distinctive ‘S’ logo that accompanies all Samsung Galaxy devices
slap bang in the middle of the invite, and it all points to the launch
of a small Galaxy devices.
The Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini has been
rumoured for a few months now, and a number of sources are pointing to
an imminent launch. Dutch site GSM Helpdesk, for example, recently reported that the Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini would be coming out by the end of the year.
Meanwhile German site Mobiflip, which is the source of the above invite information, reckons that “anything else would not make sense for me at the moment.”
The
device itself will apparently feature a 4-inch (hardly small by a
certain fruity manufacturer’s standards) 800 x 480 display, rather like
the original Galaxy S. It’ll apparently run on a dual-core processor and
will sport a 5-megapixel camera. Expect it to run Jelly Bean out of the
box, too.
We’ve only got around a week to wait before we find out what kind of mini marvel Samsung has in mind.
