John, since it runs Android 4.22, I dind´t find anyway to move apps to ExtSD except if you root your phone (doing so there are some apps to move or swap the internal and external memory) and, by the way, losing the waranty.

Great phone, pocket sized with sufficient features to keep me occupied (I'm not a stare at my phone every two minutes type of person). Phoning, texting, surfing all great. Camera appears good, but as I have "proper" photographic equipment this hardly gets used.

Got this phone last week and I am a fan of Samsung phones. Good speed and good picture quality (although not HD). My only grip with Samsung phones is the lack of software updates.

Samsung has been my favorite but after buying s4 mini, i dont think will ever buy another Samsung product. Battery life is a joke, its a new phone and all i get is max 5 hours and even worse Samsung have told me they dont replace battery for s4 mini so i have to buy it myself

Bought the S4 mini as the normal S4 looked quite big and this is a perfect size. It's still quite big for someone who's never owned a smartphone before! Excellent battery life, has so many great features, and is very easy to use. Great value for money.

I bought this phone to replace an iPhone 4. The galaxy is lighter and more slender, in comparison the iPhone is a brick. The operating system is very slick and equals ios7. The screen is crisp and clear. All in all a great phone.

My first smart phone and I am well impressed ease of use with great features,screen is excellent with many features .

The Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini is not just a smaller version of the company's flagship phone, the Galaxy S4 . While it does share many traits with the S4 - such as the polycarbonate structure and camera and button locations - there are in fact more differences than similarities.

Comfortable to hold; Good overall phone performance; Bright; easy to read screen

Awkward microSD card location; Low screen resolution; Small onboard storage

This Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini has service problems. It does not retrieve mail. I have several Hotmail and Yahoo mail accounts set up on it, and it does not go out and get the mail. At 8am this morning I finally got an email that was sent to me at 6pm the prior evening. NO thank you !!
