A spokesperson for Vodacom said they expect to launch the S5 Mini as soon as Thursday, 7 August 2014, while Cell C and MTN are both aiming for a September launch date.

“Cell C plans to list this device and it will be available in the next two months,” a spokesperson for the operator told MyBroadband. “Pricing will be made available closer to the time.”

Vodacom is expected to reveal its pricing on the Samsung Galaxy S5 Mini with its new deal sheet on 7 August 2014.
