Samsung Galaxy S III Mini is a smaller version of theSamsung Galaxy S III and contains many of the same features; however, it lacks an 8-megapixel rear camera, bigger 4.8-inch screen and Gorilla Glass display. This device has a 42 h endurance rating.[5] The device initially ran onAndroid 4.1 (Jelly Bean) but has now been updated to 4.1.2.[5] Other features include Samsung's TouchWiz Skin, ChatON instant messaging, Smart alert, Buddy Photo Share, Pop-Up Play, S Suggest, S Voice, Smart Stay, Video Hub, Game Hub 2.0, and the S Beam technology (S Beam only available on specialNFC edition, GT-I8190N). This device's battery varies from different carriers, and it will either have a 3-pin battery, which is widely used and sold, or a 4-pin battery.
An alternative 'upgraded' Galaxy S III Mini version (SM-G730A/SM-G730V) is available from the US carriersAT&T andVerizon Wireless respectively, which features a different processor (Qualcomm 1.2 GHz dual-core Snapdragon 400), NFC, 2000 mAh battery, and 4G LTE data speeds, among other differences. It retains the same 4-inch (800×480 pixels), Super AMOLED screen as the original 'international' Galaxy S III Mini. As of June 6, 2014, the AT&T[6] website shows this version of the phone shipping withAndroid 4.4 KitKat installed.
In March 2014, another variant of this device (GT-I8200) was released in some countries, with the GT-I8200N model featuring NFC and the GT-I8200L model in Latin America. This variant features a different SoC (Marvell PXA986, dual-core) clocked at 1.2 GHz, with theVivante GC1000 GPU, those specs were used in theGalaxy Tab 3 7.0 as well. The GT-I8200/N/L variants are shipped with Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean out of the box, as opposed to the older GT-I8190 variant which was shipped with 4.1.1.[7]
