When Samsung announced and subsequently released the flagship Galaxy S5 earlier this year, we knew that it wouldn't be the last in the series for 2014, and that the company's marquee release would spawn a number of spin-offs. We've already been treated to the likes of the camera-centric Galaxy K, or Galaxy S5 Zoom, but the one we were really waiting for was the down-sized Galaxy S5 mini. Today, the Korean company has granted our wish, officially unveiling the device by means of a press release, and below, we've got all of the info.
Amid a considerable amount of fanfare, Samsung took the wraps off the Galaxy S5 back in February at the Mobile World Congress, but even though the wave of rumors and speculation regarding the flagship handset could finally be put to bed, we knew even then that the device's showcasing would only be the first part of the story. We've already caught sporadic rumors and leaks relating to the Galaxy S5 mini, which we expect to pack a smaller form factor and slightly lower-end hardware than the main attraction, and now we've what looks to be a very legitimate photo of the device, accompanied by those all-important specs.
