Samsung Galaxy S3 mini - What can it do in 2023?

[@ronbendanio]

this was my first phone and it was a gift from my dad. got really sad when it got stolen during college. thinking of getting one just for the memories.

[@Galaxy.Windows]

same but with the S5 mini

[@victorinborsciov6817]

Bought one brand new from Samsung dealer, back in 2015, the I8200 the screen has Gorilla corner glass, still working today after three battery replacements, amazing device.

[@MuhammadayubMashrabov-cq2dh]

In 2016 and 2017 years I quite enjoyed using this phone. This phone was so incredible, the phone had awesome features. However before I took this phone my Sister used it only 3 years she even praised and love this phone..

[@Fluffy_Penguin727]

I had an s4 throughout 6th grade all the way to 11th grade and upgraded to an s7.

[@johnpeace23]

Loved my s3 mini ❤️, it still works now! I like the size of it, i wonder why Samsung don't make mini versions of the latest phones? I would definitely get one!

[@Kevin4u2c]

For the same reason apple doesn't make small phones anymore. They just don't sell as well as big phones.

[@Galaxy.Windows]

@@Kevin4u2c Samsung stoped releasing mini versions in 2015. (at least they updated the S5 mini up to Android 6.0.1)

[@travisdinham6084]

9:55 This!!! Like why is android so much worse now. I can't even look through the Android folder on my phone anymore. Great video, I plan on buying an old phone because I tried so many ways to play Surviving High School and I think this is the best one

[@alfonsitomaravilla]

how can i forget that time this phone fell from my hand 3 floors straight and when i picked it up it was in PERFECT condition

[@wanjoe2057]

One of my most beloved n memorable phone after my Xperia z ultra n samsung note 5 n Nokia 3310

[@JorshPodGaming]

great video, I had the S3 and wao, these times were awesome!!!

[@Kevin4u2c]

Thanks!

[@jloau4467]

Great video! I see that I'm not the only one who still uses my Galaxy S3 Mini 😁 In my case I use Omni ROM 5.1.1 without google services (because they use 300MB of RAM) and I can run games too! Candy crush soda Clash Royale (becomes more and more slow but still playable in 2024) Hill Climb Racing 2 (with random crashes because of RAM overload) Asphalt Nitro Rider (too slow) and a 2018 version of Discord still work in 2024 on this phone :D

[@IndicaEden]

You seem passionate about this

[@DragonUltraMaster]

I used my Galaxy SIII from 2012 brand new to august 2024. I was "forced" to buy a new phone now that they're shutting down 2g/3g but other than that I've use that one and only phone for 12 years and I'll still try and have some use for it. It's right now my alarm clock :P All original. Even the battery.

[@Mirra2003-f9s]

This was my first smartphone coming from an old Nokia. I still have it and it almost looks brand new but the battery is not in good shape anymore. Even got the box with manuals and the receipt....cost 200$ at the beginning of 2013

[@Ayansh0.]

Can you install Android 7 or any latest custom rom because im thinking of buying this phone to use as a secondary device.

[@Computrones]

I have mine still working with a new battery and Android 7.1.2 ROM, it works ok with whats app business- mainly what it is used for. I wish they make new tiny phones like this!☺

[@Dani11789]

Android Nougat

[@Саня2009]

Эх а я этот телефон покупал себе в колекцию 2020 году и этот телефон я полюбил с перво го зляга и на версий Андройд 4.1.2. Этот телефон мне столько эмоци подарил

Is the voice AI? I come from the spanish Channel.

[@KadekGadget]

yes

[@jkaansd1780]

I bought one 1 months ago and I rooted that now I can use some hack apps and it's still working

[@justaguy5151]

I want to see somebody stuff in modern tech into one of them

[@Kevin4u2c]

I would like to see that too.

[@Charted]

Good old times 😌

[@phoneguyyt4636]

Worth it if it's running Android 4.1.2

[@eylemuyavul3055]

but then the lag would be the almost the same and the phone would be unusable with that android version you cant do anything except using the camera and browsing and some old android 4 apps which 90% of it is gone!

[@HeyImRancover]

@@eylemuyavul3055yeah thats why im gonna buy a pre modded s4 when i buy it for christmas so i dont have to do it

[@eylemuyavul3055]

yeah you wouldnt need to spend time to do that@@HeyImRancover

[@foxyridergaming9198]

i still have one with perfect condition....but i just want know...what kind custom rom version do you use?

[@fennecRBX]

The normal S3 has a android 14 rom on xda, maybe the mini has one aswell? might be a tad better then android lolipop lol. good video

[@Kevin4u2c]

It doesn't. The most it got was an alpha version of Android 8.

[@soumayaelkarmaoui3011]

You can download dolphin emulator? On this last update?

[@MAjj-ov6nf]

How long does the battery last with the new rom?

[@vinilomelhorpresente4622]

Since when you tube requires android kit kat? That stupid app doesn't even work on android 5.0 lollipop, tried on my galaxy s4 and it says i have to update the app but playstore says it's not compatible with my device, my galaxy s5 (android 6.0) still supports you tube, but who knows for how much long

[@Banan123-k1u]

It can be downloaded to the Messenger phone in 2023 ?

[@guarangoromero]

Love this phone❤

[@GeneralJoseKrlos]

I can proundly say, that this was my first phone, and also the first phone i lost gettin robbed Please get me out of latam

[@xinyugf]

[@Galaxy.Windows]

even the S2 Plus still supports Whatsapp

[@eylemuyavul3055]

not anymore tho unfortuanetly whatsapp now wants android 5 or higher so a custom rom is needed

[@ThatRetroGuy2005]

You should tried Reicast a Dreamcast Emulator

[@Kevin4u2c]

Maybe next time.

Is this mod3l available right now???

What ROM/Custom OS are you using?

[@Sumphones]

Nvm

[@erickberaz1155]

I have S3 mini i8200L, is it possible intall Llolipop in this phone?. I read that only is possible in previus version. It is possible, where can I find the custom ROM?

[@Kevin4u2c]

That phone has different internals, so the Roms for the old model are not compatible. You should look up Roms for that model, maybe you can find something.

[@erickberaz1155]

@@Kevin4u2c I already did. Unfortunately I found nothing. I thought my pleas had been heard when I saw your video, unfortunately my joy lasted little. 😭😭😭😭😭

How did you install this rom? can you give me the link?

[@Kevin4u2c]

I got it from novafusion (the developer's site) but I think the links are down.

[@Galaxy.Windows]

i guess that Kitkat recuires a minimum of 2gb of RAM

[@Kevin4u2c]

No, that was Samsung's lame excuse. Because they would even go on to launch phones with worse specs than the Galaxy S3 mini with that version, to give you an example, the Galaxy ace 4 came out with Android 4.4 and only had 512mb of ram.

[@Galaxy.Windows]

but the Standard Galaxy S3 and the Galaxy Note1 have 1gb of ram. if Samsung said the kitkat recuires a minimum of 2gb of RAM but then they ship a phone with that version that doesnt meet the minimum system recuirement, why just not update the standard Galaxy S3 to it. i have an S5 port on my S3 and works without problems. the rom is based on the S3 4G firmware but has the S5 UI on top of it. i think they shoud have shiped that Galaxy Ace with Android 4.3 jellybean for an optimal user experience

[@Whisler]

yes, sadly
