The Galaxy S III mini on its part is Galaxy S III in a smaller package and more organic design. It is powered by Android 4.1 (Jelly Bean), the latest version of the world’s most popular smartphone operating system.

Jelly Bean has fast, fluid and smooth graphics along with a new Google Search experience featuring Google Now.

 

New camera gives photo shoot new meaning!

Creative, innovative camera to be added to your gadget cache. But ..erm, you have to stay sideways to snap objects. Plus, you have to watch where you use it. Fancy taking this camera out to snap the Right Honourable Dr. Goodluck Ebele Jonathan at an event. You stand a very good chance of being shot with the real thing by jittery security officials before you shoot your own picture!
