A new report claims that Samsung has been forced to delay the release of the Samsung Galaxy S4 mini from an expected release in May to sometime in July. A reason hasn't been given why Samsung has delayed the mini version of the Samsung Galaxy S4. Although it could be that it would like to give the Samsung Galaxy S4 the entire spotlight before it announces a mini version a few weeks after its worldwide release. That's just my opinion.

The Galaxy S4 mini is expected to feature a 4.3-inch 256ppi (pixels per inch) 540 x 960 Super AMOLED display, Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean, a 1.6GHz Exynos 5210 quad-core processor based on ARM's big.LITTLE technology and a second model with a dual-core variant, 8GB, 16GB, and 32GB of internal storage, 1GB of RAM, microSD slot with support for up to 32GB cards, 8-megapixel camera with autofocus, LED flash, geo-tagging, touch-focus and face detection, front-facing camera., and run the updated TouchWiz Nature UX user interface. Samsung will also offer the Galaxy S4 mini in the same "Black Mist" and "White Frost" color choices it is using with the Samsung Galaxy S4.

Samsung will reportedly ship two different models of the Samsung Galaxy S4 mini; one model will be equipped with the option of being able to support two SIM cards and that model will feature the quad-core processor, while the other model will support a single SIM card and ship with a dual-core processor.

This is only a rumor and needs to be filed away as such. Once we get more details you can be rest assured we'll update you with what's going on in the Samsung Galaxy S4 mini world.
