Latest rumors say a smaller Galaxy S III is on the horizon.
Samsung's already had huge success with its Galaxy S line of smartphones, and we're already hearing rumors regarding the launch of the Galaxy S IV. However, it seems Samsung may not be quite done with the Galaxy S III line just yet. Rumor has it Samsung is preparing to launch a Galaxy S III Mini later this month.
According to Unwired View, Samsung has invited German media to an event that boasts something that is both big and small. Google Translate decodes the message as follows: "The size may be small. And so small can be big." In the background, you can just about make out the trademark 'S' that Samsung uses in the branding for all of its Galaxy S products.
So, we know it's a Galaxy S device for sure, but speculation from around the web suggests this device might be a smaller version of Samsung's current top dog, the Galaxy S III. Of course, we won't know for sure until the event itself. Lucky for us, we don't have to wait long. It's scheduled for October 11, which is next Thursday. Stay tuned!

The whole industry was moving towards larger phones (do you see any recent releases that aren't larger than previous ones). So this is for those who still want smaller phones.
Heck "fans" of anything are irrational.

There are still those out there that prefer a small and light weight device.
iPhone fans wanted a larger screen for years and what did they get in the iPhone5? The same exact size screen only a few pixels longer. So all the text is the exact same size, all the icons the exact same size, and the the exact same small Keyboard buttons. Yes it is 4 inches instead of 3.5 inches but only benefits you in apps that give you extra real-estate for pinch to zoom, like web browsing.
Well some of us Gen X'ers are getting old and our eyes are not what they used to be. We need the bigger screen to see the numbers
I'm small size and I like the size of my SGS3, I had a iphone 4 before and it was too small.
The SGS3 is the perfect size for me and probably many.
Yeh cause, you know, they blow!
Because choice is a bad thing, you should buy what they give you and have no say in it, that's how Apple has operated for years and they sell millions, right?
...
Well, Android phones come in every size, shape and colour under the sun and they still outsell iPhones by 4 to 1, I think the consumer has spoken.
