The Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini has been relaunched with NFC capabilities, but it's hardly a game changer.
When the Galaxy S3 Mini was launched back in October we were a little under whelmed with the handset's specification against its slightly inflated price tag.
One of the main features missing on the Galaxy S3 Mini from the original Galaxy S3 was NFC technology, but Samsung has now righted that wrong with a new model.
That's all, folks
So what else does this updated version offer? Well, nothing. That's your lot – the addition of NFC to a phone which still rocks the same 4-inch WVGA Super AMOLED display, 1GHz dual-core processor, 1GB of RAM, 5MP camera and Android Jelly Bean OS.
We've spoken to Samsung, which told us this new model with its fancy contactless technology will replace the version currently on sale by the end of the month.
Price-wise the new Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini should be the same price, so you'll need to fork out around £270 if you want it SIM-free, while contracts start at £15.50 per month over two years with a free handset.
We also asked if current Galaxy S3 Mini owners would be able to swap their NFC-less handsets for the new model at a reduced rate, but Samsung is yet to get back to us on this.
