class=”bajada” were testing the smaller version of the company’s flagship smartphone, which is already sold in the country

just over two months ago Samsung introduced in our country S4 Galaxy Mini, which was testing. As noted at the time, the name does not refer to its components, but its appearance; believe it’s a teeny Galaxy S4 is a mistake. This does not mean that the phone is bad, but it is a fact to take into account. Samsung is not the only company to do that, in turn, demonstrated with his Sony Xperia Z1 F that it is possible to take a high-end phone, preserving the components and simply make it smaller
.
Anyway: for anyone considering buying the S4 Galaxy Mini, what matters is what is, not what it should or could be. We will then analyze what-and what not-this smartphone.
appearance
The biggest point of contact and S4 S4 Mini is the look, here it really is a miniature Galaxy S4. It has a Super AMOLED 4.3 inch (960 x 540 pixels, 260 pixels per inch), which allows you to have a good size and be very comfortable in the pocket, especially if, like me, prefer a computer screen 4.3 / 4.5 inches before something bigger. The resolution is good, but could be a bit larger, for the vast majority of users this will be anecdotal; most noticeable will be, however, that the screen has very good visibility in sunlight, although as in other screens its kind-the colors are a bit saturated.
Below is the same physical control button and two capacitive buttons has its big brother, the same as the lock button and the volume on the sides and the rear cover to allow access to the battery of 1900 mAh (removable) and slots for microSD and microSIM. In front is unfortunately not very useful notification light.
The phone is compact and lightweight (124.6 x 61.3 x 8.9 mm, 107 grams), and here it fits its name, because the termination of the pieces do not feel economic or modest but simply smaller than the S4, to convince them that no recent aesthetic Samsung will not change your mind
.
processor and memory
Behind the screen
S4 Mini has a 400 chip Qualcomm Snapdragon dual-core 1.7 GHz, 1.5 GB of RAM, 8 GB of internal storage (just over 5 GB user available) and slot microSD, 8 megapixel camera with LED flash that records video in Full HD and Android 4.2.2 (no news on updating to 4.3, available in other countries since late October). Also, 3G, Wi-Fi, GPS / Glonass, Bluetooth 4, FM Radio and infrared port, useful for using the phone as a remote control, which works very well. You do not have NFC chip (model i9195 with LTE, it does, but it is not sold in the country) and MHL (USB and HDMI combines at the same port), only a miniUSB

Here
yes there is a big change from the conventional Galaxy S4, especially noticeable on the processor and RAM available. Is little slow the way, is outdated? No, but it is not nearly the most powerful of the market (beyond what they say laboratory tests), but-and this applies to almost any modern smartphone, a dual-core processor and 1GB of RAM are rare occasions in which a team of this type fail to complete normal tasks expected of a smartphone.
Would he have been better more power and more RAM? No doubt, as time passes and applications evolve, they often take up more RAM and demand more computational power, because they become more sophisticated. It is the same in the PC. Does this mean that the S4 Mini does not work, or Old? Not at all. Just long term is more noticeable limitations and today should not bring any problem, and in fact I had no problems with any of the applications I used
.
The camera and battery
The camera is also good, there are better and more resolution, but has no objection to provide good photos. Nor excels. The images have good sharpness and colors are fine, as in the videos.
battery reaches for a day of use, but not much more, although this will vary in each, depending on multiple elements (type of use, signal quality where we are, etc.). But it should be possible to leave the house without worrying about a charger or pending if we night.
I had no problems with call quality and overall I had signal in the same areas as other teams.
Android and private functions
the Galaxy S4, S4 Mini uses TouchWiz, the Android version adapted to the taste of Samsung. Away from the position of Motorola (which in their Moto X and Moto G offers Android just amended on how it implements Google) will not be to everyone’s liking, as I always say, there are other options on the market for that price ( competitors that put other Android style, on different platforms like Windows Phone) that are very strong too.

But considering the popularity of Samsung in the market does not seem to TouchWiz, which has greatly improved compared to previous versions, represents a problem. Here everything works on large S4 or Galaxy Note 3; are the useful Very possibility of having multiple control buttons in the notification menu, there are applications that Samsung extremely hubs to group and promote content, software media-and some of the proprietary functions of the company present in the Galaxy S4 reproduction.
For example, taking advantage of the accelerometer to initiate a call simply take the phone to your ear (if we open a chat conversation or the view that contact), or vibrate the phone was long only if ( still) and have missed calls or unread messages, Stay Smart, which detects the position of the eyes to keep the screen off if we’re looking at. Missing attaches to the camera (like catching with both cameras simultaneously) and the recognition of gestures in the air, but in my time with the Galaxy S4 I did not find anything particularly useful.
Price and conclusions
S4
Samsung Galaxy Mini is priced at $ 3699 in Claro, Movistar and $ 3,299 in Personal (with fertilizer from 250 to 300 pesos, there are other options)
.
this price segment, however, has some interesting competitors who also tried at the time, as the Motorola Moto X, Sony Xperia ZL, LG Optimus G or Nokia Lumia 925 (including a BlackBerry Z10 beyond the situation of the company), among others, that equal or better the offerings. I still found a strong team, with good performance and features that do not protrude from the rest, but are well equal. .
