Galaxy S4 mini, the smaller, less powerful flavor of Samsung’s latest flagship smartphone, is now available for reservations in the UK, on the networks of Orange and T-Mobile.

The handset is expected to become available for purchase in the country on July 5, and those who would like to ensure that they will grab one can now pre-order it at either of the two carriers.

Samsung Galaxy S4 mini is up for reservations on monthly plans that start at £26 ($41 / €31), while the release date will see it available only on plans starting at £49.99 ($78.5 / €59), UnwiredView notes.

The 4.3-inch Android smartphone packs a 1.7 GHz dual-core processor and an 8-megapixel camera on the back.

It can be seen at Orange in Black Mist and White Frost, here and here respectively, and here and here at T-Mobile.
