    I was hoping that with S5 mini, Samsung will launch the octa-core processor. Disappointing !

    I guess waiting till December 2014 might bring a good offer. I don't expect much. The Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini Price In India Is Rs. 27,990! which I now own (the predecessor of the 'Mini' series) came out at Rs27990 INR. Now it's available for Rs18500 INR after about 10 months of hitting the market. The size is a good factor for this Mini series. It's a decent performer as well. Fingers crossed.
