horrible performance

I bought the mini because of its size and because of my experience with the full size S III. I could not use the 32 GB micro sd in the mini that I was using in the full size S III because it would randomly say that it could not recognize the card. It worked OK with a 4 GB card. I have not tried anything between 4 and 32. The 32 GB still works fine in the full size S III. The performance of the mini is much slower than the full size. The mini will randomly lock up on me. I really dislike this phone. I wish I would have kept my other smart phone because now I'm stuck with this for 2 years. I do recommend the full size S III if you don't mind carrying something around that is that big. I can say that the battery is decent.
Pros: Durable
Cons: Did not meet expectations
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Not a user friendly phone

This phone did not come with a manual in the box except how to do quick set up and the online instructions for features has a lot to be desired. Also the phone does not keep the personalized ring tones that you set for each contact if you turn the phone off then back on, you have to reset them all again, finally gave up on trying. Also, trying to remove apps from the phone is almost impossible. Am just overall disappointed in the quality of the phone not to mention that a phone cover costs more than the phone did and I wasn't able to get one in the stores I had to order one online and it's cheaply made also so doubt it will protect the phone very well. I will not purchase another Samsung product again.
Pros: Inexpensive, Lightweight
Cons: Poor quality, Did not meet expectations
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I got this phone on 2-2-14 and by july it had already been back to samsung. I found out later this phone is the basic samsung product and they always has problems. The phone itself is a good product it just has to many problems for what it is worth. If you are thinking about going to a samsung phone get the big galaxy I have used them and they have very little problems.
Pros: Inexpensive, Lightweight
Cons: Poor quality, Did not meet expectations
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Pros: Inexpensive

No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Fabulous Phone

I was looking for a phone that would fit in my hand and was leaning toward the iPhone 5s until I saw this Samsung Galaxy S III Mini. It is a wonderful phone. It has and does everything I need it to do and I have been very happy with it. The display is bright, the phone is very responsive and it is lightweight. I just love this phone and would recommend it to everyone.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!
