When will US get the mini? - Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am interested in this phone but dont see it anywhere yet, so when will the US get it? Is there a cdma version also or just gsm?

I think for now it's just GSM. And if you want the GSM version, just do what I did and buy it off of Amazon.

buying it on a carrier is verry dificult because apple sue samsung and the s3 mini is in the ban list

i heard that samsung can't sell their stuff to US due Apple ban list.. the only way is use amazon..

I've read comments like "why getting the mini if you can get the bigger and better S3 for cheap in the US?" i'm not sure if this is true though.
In my country the S3 is ridiculously expensive, the mini was a nice alternative for half the price and half the specs, but i'm very happy with it.

How much is the S3 in your country? It's about 700€ here.

NFC??

Can anyone suggest me how to activate NFC in my note or use it ??
Note does not have nfc xD
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
Did you even read the specs of the Note before buying it ?
The Note(GT-N7000) doesn't support NFC
it's better you sell your Note and get the Note 2 (when Sammy will release it), perhaps that comes already with NFC that you truly desire for.

I think it can only be activated with the samsung battery that was seen on many photos at the galaxy note release, because you would need the antenna inside it to use nfc. But i have not seen samsung selling any of these batteries yet.

Don't you think there may soon be also any sort of 'smart covers' with nfc antennas inside?
The one who makes jokes. FYI N7000 has optional NFC support.
One of the carrier in my country selling N7000 with NFC installed.
So sorry for you guys that just coming here to find something for make a fun instead of helping others.

Most versions of the GT-N7000 do NOT have NFC. It is extremely RARE to find.

Samsung has put the design of the NFC in the N7000.. Not sure what their plan is when it comes to the rollout to the public.. I was able to see it on the schematics of the N7000..
You can look it up on Dr. Ketan's toolbox.. Galaxy note Service manual..

did you consider htc ome s?
i was
At the end I have took sgs3 but if my butget was tight i was prepared to take one s
pros:
1. arm15 on board so future proof
2. realy good build quality (even better than sgs3, and I know what I am talking waiting for delivery of otter box comuter case for my sgs3!! )
3. chaper options for monthly rental, at least 5 to 8 pounds a month.
4 nice screen
cons
1 Not samsung
2 not sgs3
cheers
If I need to buy this year,I will buy SGS2.
If I will buy next year,I will buy SGS3.
No-matter SGS2 or SGS3 I will buy used phone and in warranty.
Because in my country just warranty 1yeas and new phone must cost me about $700,so I will buy used phone.

Bolded text is horribly wrong. The i9100G sports the OMAP4 processor, just like the Galaxy Nexus. It's much easier to develop for this particular chipset if compared to the i9100 Exynos chip, and as the previous poster has pointed out, CM10 nightlies are already out for the i9100G but not for the i9100.
Thank You
Thanks, this helped me too.
lol couldn't wait..already ordered the nexus..hope its as good as the galaxy s turned out to be..thanx guys
Why do you need to upgrade it?
It's funny... even after two years, I haven't found a single phone I'd much rather have than the SGS. Most newer models are just too damn big. The S is the perfect size, and recent software upgrades have made it faster than ever.
Yes the Galaxy S1 is most rom and mods, rather than later, and is still the best.
I love my Galaxy S and I will change it only when it dies.
It still is the best price/performance out there, its size is perfect, it has one of the best sound chips on the market and it has a big list of custom ROMs.

Still worth buying or aged?

Looking to buy a new phone soon, and just wanted your views on whether this phone has gone aged.

In my opinion it's worth buying

You could also consider the i9001 (Galaxy S Plus), which looks exactly the same as the i9000 but has quite different hardware. At least on paper it's quite a bit better and not nearly as expensive as an SII. I've got one of those and am really happy with it
Yes but the i9001 only has slightly faster CPU and slower graphics you can easily set the i9000 to the same clock speed as the i9001

I asked around on the nexus s forums and they told me not to buy. They say its showing its age.
I'm looking at Xperia S now. Probably gonna buy it.

A rooted Galaxy S I9000 is still pretty good, but if you can afford it I recommend you the Xiaomi MI-2.
I personally think that the i9000 is a great phone. It was my first Galaxy class and is still with me
I rooted the phone and switched over to running JellyBean (SlimRom version) and think it is just great. I do prefer the S2 just because it is that much faster, but finding it hard to part with my trusty original
Good all round phone but a little slow on some of the major games (I believe - though cannot vouch for that)

Wich is the best tablet to use with an HTC one?

My friends, I'm thinking that I really need a tablet to complement my SGN2. I don't want to close any option before I hear from you. I'm an advance user, and I'm looking for something that really gives me more that my sgn2. I used to have an iPad I sold it because only my children were using it to play around, but since the anounncement that office 365 was out in USA, I'm thinking to get me an iPad mini. Another choice might be an w8 tablet, since I want it only to get my job done (lots of reports and presentation, microsoft dominates my working environment). I was thinking also to let go my SGN2, get an HTC one and buy a note 10'. What do you think?? Please help me out here.

Or wait a month or two for a probable announcement of the next Nexus 7 Unless you need something bigger in which case a new Nexus 10 should make it's way to announcement soon as well~
wait for the new N7 or N10
if you're getting an android tablet might aswell be a nexus

But what do you think of the other tablets?, I want it to use it on my job, advance tools for powerpoint and advance tools for excell... on Android I can't seems to find somethingh as powerfull as the office suite.
I've allready have an apple account with several software bought, maybe w8 is a good choice but it's a new system and just to have to buy all over again just doesn't seems right.

Well it's weird then that you're asking on here what NON-Android/HTC device to get considering you're already leaning way towards an Apple device anyway for the above stated reasons
Thats beacause I don't know everything and maybe there is something that I'm missing, don't you think?

It's a work based tablet. You shouldn't be buying a tablet for work though
I am using galaxy note 8.0 and HTC one. You just can't get wrong with the combination.
I used S4 which I think was really laggy and half of the memory was taken by Samsung apps.HTC one get the dev edition from HTC USA online store.
It is amazing piece of equipment.

Sure, I'll use it only when I feel creative. I also have an Lenovo X220 Tablet and is really to big and heavy to carry arround. That's my main working device, but on the go, sometimes y feell that my SGN2 just doesn't help me all the way. I'll take a look at that Dell. thank you!!

Even though the Incredible S is a very good and sturdy phone, I would not recommend it at this time as its already past 3 years since it last launched. Do you have some sort of budget??

Hmm well I don't know how much your plan costs nor do I know how vodafone does things but it might be worth to try the S4 Mini, One Mini, or the Xperia SP. They are all pretty descent mid-range phones.
