Typical - as I am in the process of porting because of lack of answers :mad: BTW CellC nationally don't have stock of any SIII minis in white, so the wait for handsets may be a while.

Why would they give you an option between the mini and the S3? The S3 is far superior in terms of specs and is much more expensive.

Well some people think the S3 is too big, and the mini is just the right size for them (my dad's reasoning when he upgraded).
Well for me it will be S3 I9300 blue all the way.
Holding thumbs that this is true.

Ok deal one of two done, RBM200 upgrade to SIII on RBM200, waiting for stock on 2nd phone. Package remains the same BUT must pay in for handset at R150pm so total bill now R249 + R150 = R399 for SIII on RBM200.

It is 249 for the 200min 200sms and 500mb

R399 still cheaper currently S3 on "straight up 200" + 300mb = R504

Ok the S4 will be R499 on SU200 with 1GB

Yeah I think it's a better deal to go for the S4.
Really looks like they wanna get rid of this contract, not worth it if you have to pay more.

teebag, what about the other phones ? Have to pay extra for them as well ?

um I know
previously the phones were included in the price, it doesnt seem like such a great deal anymore
better to get the S4 with a 1gb 100 mins for the same price...

So S4 + 100 minutes + 1GB
VS S3 + 200 minutes + 500MB

correct (S3 according to teebag)
I hardly use any of my 200mins, always have about 9 hours talktime available
so the 100 mins will be just fine for me...

And the RBM 200 minutes are per minute billing while the straight up is per second.

Took the plunge yesterday and ordered the s3mini on upgrade.
Seems like the best deal for the mini at the moment. Can't take the size of the s4 or s3.

Well I guess I'll wait then, I'm not a big fan of the mini S3, maybe they'll have a better deal by mid August, otherwise I'm gonna cancel and move the a different contract. This sucks, I can upgrade but I can't.

What your thoughts? They don't advertise at all but the deals are great. samsung galaxy nexus for R 250, 200 min and 100 sms and 500 mb.
